A Gentlemen’s Coup Lyrics

[Chorus]
We stormed the gates, raised new flags
It's just the same old story
We seized the throne, subjugate
We should have burned it to the ground
(stormed the gates, raised new flags)
(siezed the throne, subjugate)
Some might say we've lost our way
But I believe we've not gone far enough

[Bridge]
And how long will we fall for this?
How long will we fall for this?
How long will we fall for this?
And how long will we fall?

And how long will we fall for this?
How long will we fall for this?
How long will we fall for this?
How long, how long?

[Chorus]
We stormed the gates, raised new flags
It's just the same old story
We seized the throne, subjugate
We should have burned it to the ground
(stormed the gates, raised new flags)
(siezed the throne, subjugate)
Some might say we've lost our way
But I believe we've not gone far enough

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
