Revolution Underway Lyrics

[Verse 1]
From the falling of the night
To the coming of the day
We are in it for the fight
To wish the pain away
And you know it's always right
But you know you're gonna pay
So you get a sharper knife
And commence to cut away

[Chorus]
Revolution underway
Revolution underway
Still a heavy price to pay

[Verse 2]
In the crosshairs of your sight
You can see the world decay
And you try with all your might
But we're all just jars of clay
Moving at the speed of light
And there's nothing in the way
You know it's gonna change your life
And the change is here to stay

[Chorus]
Revolution underway
Revolution underway
Revolution underway
Still a heavy price to pay

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This one explores themes of societal change, resistance, and the sacrifices required for revolution, with lyrics that convey a sense of urgency and determination in the face of societal decay and the need for a transformative movement. The revolution is something that will change lives, and have a lasting impact, but has a high cost. The song's overall meaning portrays the revolution as a necessary response to societal decay and oppression. It underscores the inevitability of sacrifice and the endurance required to achieve meaningful change and by utilizing metaphors such as humans being jars of clay, the song imparts a sense of the struggle, vulnerability, and how people of power view the masses.
