Voting is a method for a group such as a meeting or an electorate to make a decision or express an opinion—often following discussions, debates, or election campaigns. Democracies elect holders of high office by voting.
In a democracy, a government is chosen by voting in an election: a way for an electorate to elect, i.e. choose, among several candidates for rule. In a representative democracy voting is the method by which the electorate appoints its representatives in its government. A vote is a formal expression of an individual's choice in voting, for or against some motion (for example, a proposed resolution), for a certain candidate, a selection of candidates, or a political party. A secret ballot has come to be the practice to prevent voters from being intimidated and to protect their political privacy. Voting usually takes place at a polling station; it is voluntary in some countries, compulsory in others, such as Argentina, Australia, Belgium and Brazil.
Different voting systems use different types of votes. "Plurality voting systems" do not require the winner to achieve a vote majority, or more than fifty percent of the total votes cast. In a voting system that uses a single vote per race, when more than two candidates run, the winner may commonly have less than fifty percent of the vote.
They said that we were worthless,
They said that we were young.
And they said that we should take our place
And learn to bite a tongue.
They said that we were dangerous,
Yeah, they said that we were told
And they said that we would break our necks
If we yell to sing another song.
So come on.
If you’re sick of being told you were wrong,
They moved everything inside you, sing along.
We were young and we were dangerous
Never care of what they thought of us,
We were screaming of the days that will come.
We were young and we were dangerous,
Never living in the past of us,
We were screaming at the top of our lungs,
When we were young.
They said that we were hopeless,
Yeah, they said that we were young,
And they said that we should take our place
And tell our time they come.
But I say we are dangerous,
Yeah, I say that we are one.
And I say that with each dying breath
We will never call to give it up.
So come on.
If you’re sick of being told you were wrong,
They moved everything inside you, sing along.
We were young and we were dangerous
Never care of what they thought of us,
We were screaming of the days that will come.
We were young and we were dangerous,
Never living in the past of us,
We were screaming at the top of our lungs,
When we were young.
When we were young,
When we were young.
They said that we were dangerous,
Yeah, they said that we were told
And they said that we would break our necks
If we yell to sing another song.
So come on.
We were young and we were dangerous
Never care of what they thought of us,
We were screaming of the days that will come.
We were young and we were dangerous,
Never living in the past of us,
We were screaming at the top of our lungs,
