Information
"Resistance" opens with piano and drums and has a Queen-esque chorus.[2] Described in NME magazine as having "tribals drums and a piano melody in the style of 'Starlight.'"[3] In the September 2009 issue of Spin, Matt said, "The song 'Resistance' is basically a retelling of the relationship between Winston and Julia," in reference to the two main characters of George Orwell's 1984.
Lyrics
Incomplete
[Lyrics in brackets from reviews of album]
[...will they find our hiding place?] We can hide the truth inside, It could be wrong, could be wrong, But it should've been right, It could be wrong, could be wrong, To let our hearts ignite, It could be wrong, could be wrong, Are we digging a hole? It could be wrong, could be wrong, This is outta control, It could be wrong, could be wrong, It could never last, It could be wrong, could be wrong, Must erase it fast, It could be wrong, could be wrong, But it could've been right, It could be wrong, could be wrong, Love is our resistance They'll keep us apart and they won't stop breaking us down. ??? ???
