Rise Against - Sudden Urge lyrics
[Rise Against - Sudden Urge lyrics]
We are names and we are faces
Not listed in the pages
You're searching line by line
The voices in the wire
The glass under your tires
The panic in your eyes
And when we start to lose control
And when we start to lose our minds
That's when I close my eyes
And feel a sudden urge (Whoa oh oh oh)
To watch this whole town burn
(Whoa oh oh oh) light up the whole damn sky
(Whoa oh oh oh) like the Fourth of July
Like the Fourth of July, hey
I am as patient as a volcano
A butterfly in a landmine field
I am a dandelion making guns go silent
Sticking out of every barrel, cold as steel
And in this fight you've started
I'm a moving target and I'm sick of running
But the pain keeps coming
Like a sudden urge (Whoa oh oh oh)
To watch this whole town burn
(Whoa oh oh oh) light up the whole damn sky
(Whoa oh oh oh) like the Fourth of July
Like the Fourth of July, hey
Searching for something worth saving
From this fire
Try to envision the glass half-full
Give me a reason to smother these flames now
Before they begin to grow
I can't stop the sky from falling
All I hear are voices calling
Asking, "Have you come to heal us?"
Touch my shaking hand
You'll feel a sudden urge (Whoa oh oh oh)
To watch this whole town burn
(Whoa oh oh oh) light up the whole damn sky
(Whoa oh oh oh) like the Fourth of July
The Fourth of July
From branch to root, we are black inside
Scorching the earth like it's
The Fourth of July
If everything you knew was a goddamn lie
Would you up and explode
Like it's the Fourth of July?
