Rise Against

Rise Against -> Drones

Deep inside these burning buildings
Voices die to be heard
Years we spent teaching a lesson
We ourselves had never learned

And if strength is borne from heartbreak
Many mountains I could move
And if walls could speak I'd pray
That they would tell me what to do

If you see me, please just walk on by, walk on by.
Forget my name and I'll forget it too.
Failed attempts at living simple lives, simple lives,
Always keep me coming back to you.

No signs of life here, save the embers, the occasional flame,
We'd know the way but can't remember, conception to the grave,
Jump confessions from the greatest heights, where no one can hear,
All my fears, my insecurities are falling like tears.

If you see me, please just walk on by, walk on by.
Forget my name and I'll forget it too.
Failed attempts at living simple lives, simple lives,
Always keep me coming back to you.

The drones will slave away, they're working overtime,
They serve a faceless queen, they never question why.
Disciples of a god, they neither live nor breathe,
(I won't come back!)
But we have bills to pay, yeah we have mouths to feed!
(I won't come back!)
I won't come back!

If you see me, please just walk on by, walk on by.
Forget my name and I'll forget it too.
Failed attempts at living simple lives, simple lives,
Always keep me coming back to you.

I'm coming back to you!

Break through the undertoe,
your hands are grasping to fight,
pollution burns my tongue,
the words i canand't speak so i stall myself again, then i fall to the surface,
throw my life with them,
then let it out
I give it all,
this is the reason why i sing,
so give it all,
cause its these reasons that belong to me
Rock bottoms where we live,
and still we dig these trenches,
bury ourselves in them,
backs breaking on the tension
For far too long these voices,
muffled by distances,
its time to come to our senses,
and from the dark
We give it all,
this is the reason why i sing,
so give it all,
its these reasons that belong to me
Breathe, the air we give,
the life we live,
our voices raising distances,
so when my tongue,
break into song,
you sieze a competition,
So please believe your eyes,
of sacrifice,
is not what we had in our minds,
iand'm coming home tonight, home tonight
We give it all,
this is the reason why i sing,
so give it all,
its these reasons that belong to me
Today i offer all myself through this iand'm living for my dying words,
i give it all,
now thereand's a reason, thereand's a reason,
to give it all...
