The Revolution Will Not Be Owned Lyrics

The Revolution Will Not Be Owned - Jenny Hval

Lyrics by:Jenny Hval

Composed by:Jenny Hval

We say "You run away to utopia"

 

We say it like it's true

 

We like to say this

 

This way of speaking belongs to us

It's safe

 

You say "A utopia needs to contain this:an actual dream

A dream is where we don't consider ourselves

 

We just appear in a symbolic state

A dream is where we set ourselves aside

 

Dreaming is the plan without the plan"

 

And this song is regulated by copyright regulations

 

And dreaming doesn't have copyright

 

I guess you could say "The revolution will not be owned"

A dream is a remix of awake

Something is opened and lets go of consciousness

And self-control

 

Like in surgery something fizzles out

And is replaced

The creature makes its sortie

I wake up to the first frost experienced

Previously inhabited like a summer house

What lies by my bed an impossible creature

Abject and succulent

 

 

A dream a dream a dream a dream a dream
