Against Me! - Ya'll Don't Want To Step Dis lyrics
[Against Me! - Ya'll Don't Want To Step Dis lyrics]
Four sins past sainthood
It's like I'm dying to forget
All the sleepless nights lying
Perfectly alone and still
I can drink 'til victory
I'll drink to the mighty
Drink until I die or at
Least until the sunrise
When honesty as popular as a plague
Comes to remind me that the dead's winning
The race with me going nowhere
Right down the street a prostitute
Is selling the closest
Thing to love that this country has to offer
And Alachua still sleeps tonight
And Alachua still sleeps tonight
And Alachua still sleeps tonight
So we fought for the republic while
A catholic sun filled every eye
From the atlantic to the
Pacific ocean, victory
I drank to the mighty
We died for oil, died for
Borders, killed for democracy
Still believed every platform
Can You handle the death
Accept what you create together
I still know every politician
Is a fucking monster
Culture kills bureaucrats and
All other undesirables
History said we died for freedom but
Today no justice was served
And America still sleeps tonight
And America still sleeps tonight
And America still sleeps tonight
And I hope it doesn't wake up tomorrow
So we boasted that we were champions
Each country singing it's own praise
Like a rock thrown in to the ocean
Humanity was rising to the top
Two world wars later
Countless "military interventions" we erect
Monuments to history
And give apologies to the dead
All that was fought for the
Living is quickly forgotten
We don't remember the dates
We don't remember the reasons
We have no idea what's going on
Building histories of western corporations
It doesn't even turn my stomach to
See the pictures of atrocities anymore
Going numb in the new order
Of the new century
And Alachua still sleeps tonight
And America still sleeps tonight
And the world still sleeps tonight
And Alachua still sleeps tonight
And America still sleeps tonight
And the world still sleeps tonight
It's like I'm dying to forget
All the sleepless nights lying
Perfectly alone and still
I can drink 'til victory
I'll drink to the mighty
Drink until I die or at
Least until the sunrise
When honesty as popular as a plague
Comes to remind me that the dead's winning
The race with me going nowhere
Right down the street a prostitute
Is selling the closest
Thing to love that this country has to offer
And Alachua still sleeps tonight
And Alachua still sleeps tonight
And Alachua still sleeps tonight
So we fought for the republic while
A catholic sun filled every eye
From the atlantic to the
Pacific ocean, victory
I drank to the mighty
We died for oil, died for
Borders, killed for democracy
Still believed every platform
Can You handle the death
Accept what you create together
I still know every politician

And America still sleeps tonight
And America still sleeps tonight
And America still sleeps tonight
And I hope it doesn't wake up tomorrow

And the world still sleeps tonight
And Alachua still sleeps tonight
And America still sleeps tonight
And the world still sleeps tonight
