  • And it's a sad picture, the final blow hits you
    Somebody else gets what you wanted again and
    You know it's all the same, another time and place
    Repeating history and you're getting sick of it
    But I believe in whatever you do
    And I'll do anything to see it through

    Because these things will change
    Can you feel it now?
    These walls that they put up to hold us back will fall down
    It's a revolution, the time will come
    For us to finally win
    And we'll sing hallelujah, we'll sing hallelujah

    So we've been outnumbered
    Raided and now cornered
    It's hard to fight when the fight ain't fair
    We're getting stronger now
    Find things they never found
    They might be bigger
    But we're faster and never scared
    You can walk away, say we don't need this
    But there's something in your eyes
    Says we can beat this

    Because these things will change
    Can you feel it now?
    These walls that they put up to hold us back will fall down
    It's a revolution, the time will come
    For us to finally win
    And we'll sing hallelujah, we'll sing hallelujah

    Tonight we'll stand, get off our knees
    Fight for what we've worked for all these years
    And the battle was long, it's the fight of our lives
    But we'll stand up champions tonight

    It was the night things changed
    Can you see it now?
    These walls that they put up to hold us back fell down
    It's a revolution, throw your hands up
    'Cause we never gave in
    And we'll sing hallelujah, we sang hallelujah

  • Michaela from Atkinson, NhTaylor is so talented and such a good person and that makes her music even more genuine, honest and passionate. I love this song as I can relate it to my own life easily as most people could. Any walk of life could understand the powerful and important message behind this song. So as usual, awesomely done T-Swift :)
  • Cheyenne from Oxford Hills, MeI like this song because it shows that if you believe you can do something and you take your own time to do it then you can get it done. :)

  • Emily from Around Chicago, IlIn the booklet that comes w/the CD, there are hidden messages in the lyrics. You take all the capital letters and put them in order to spell a phrase. Change's message is: YOU MADE THINGS CHANGE FOR ME.
