Say what you want with blood and bone And stick a finger in their faces when they say you’re overblown Say yes to sun, say yes to pain, say yes to sticking with a city through a thousand days of rain Say yes to grace, say no to spite Say yes to this, say yes to you, say yes to me, say yes to love Say yes to life Say, say yes to life Instrumental Outro
