Group:
The East is red
The sun is rising
The East is red
The sun is rising
Solo:
Accept this face of mine, mute and beginning
Accept this love
I ask for – accept –
the part of me that is inside you
Group:
The East is red
The sun is rising
The East is red
The sun is rising
Solo and Group:
Mankind grows stronger in stormy wind and waves
and revolution progresses in raging flames
Facing the future,
with our hot blood and a red heart
Let’s join the workers
and the peasants
to march
bravely toward our victory
It’s you absorbed inside of me
Remember the force at the core
Leading our cause forward
Remember the force at the core
Leading our cause forward
Chorus I:
Are you ready to die again?
Everyone will know your name
Lose yourself to the new image
(Full devotion)
All the things you lost
will be regained
Lose yourself to the new image
(Full devotion)
You need words
We need bodies (jinjja!)
Lose yourself to the new image
(Full devotion)
Are you ready for death
and immortal fame?
Lose yourself to the new image
(Full devotion)
This is the revolution
Solo (Rap):
Shades of red
Shades of blood
Old flesh found a new body
Influencers on the rise
Songs are our weapons
our weapons of power
Like it, like it, like it
We are the answer I swear
that you’re gonna find out
The world keeps spinning and we keep on winning
Our blood is pumping as one,
one, one
Welcome to an era where (yeah!)
war became a memory (hey!)
If revolution is a sickness
I wanna be sick, sick, sick (hey, hey, hey!)
You had no language before us
This heart beats together
Forever
Forget where you came from
Forget history, it’s full of pain (pain!)
Kill your shadows, draw the curtain
No new idols
Public shaming
is public healing
Welcome to the new victimhood (oh yeah!)
If revolution is a sickness
I wanna be sick, sick, sick
No new idols
This is the end of history
Group:
Did your loneliness have a name?
Was the freedom worth the pain?
Solo:
I swam from the ocean searching for a new nation
I lost my family that day
Years I spent swimming backwards
but their voices were lost to the
crashing waves
Group:
You belong on the sun
We are reflected in everything
The sea looks like glitter
from here
Chorus II:
This is where your shadows come to die
This is where your shadows come to die
This is where your shadows come to die
This is where your shadows come to die
This is where your shadows come to die
This is where your shadows come to die
This is where your shadows come to die
This is the revolution
Solo (Rap) and Group:
Are you ready to die again?
Everyone will know your name
Lose yourself to the new image
(Full devotion)
All the things you lost
will be regained
Lose yourself to the new image
(Full devotion)
You need words
We need bodies (jinjja!)
Lose yourself to the new image
(Full devotion)
Are you ready for death
and immortal fame?
Lose yourself to the new ima –
Ima-, ima, ima… (Sick, sick, sick…)
Group (Outtro):
The East is red
The sun is rising
The East is red
The sun is rising
The East is red
The sun is rising
The East is red
Revolutionary youth of the world unite!
Oo, oo, oo…
