Rise Against - The Great Die-Off lyrics
[Rise Against - The Great Die-Off lyrics]
And there's a fire on the borders
And it's burning down the
Walls you built high
And there's a steady stream of anger
And it's spilling from the coasts
A tidal wave
And the words say we reap what we sow
So where I bury you I'll build my home
In line to reclaim
But we're sick of the wait
We want it all and we want it now
Tonight I watched your fires burn out
The cold dead hands we pried
These guns from are yours oh oh oh oh
We want it all and we want it now
A tide is comin' to drown you out
We make ourselves at home while
Your body's still warm oh oh oh oh oh, woah
(Go) tradition tethers us to rituals
And are we all just clocks on wrong times?
And something triggers each and every
Time I hear you say "God bless this place"
But, your numbers are dwindling now
Though endangered we'll still hunt you down
With heads on a stake, long may you reign
We want it all and we want it now
Tonight I watched your fires burn out
The cold dead hands we pried
These guns from are yours oh oh oh oh
We want it all and we want it now
A tide is coming to drown you out
We make ourselves at home while
Your body's still warm oh oh oh oh, yeah
And there's a fire on the borders
And it's burning down the
Walls you built high
And there's a steady stream of anger
And it's spilling from the coasts
A tidal wave
We want the motherfucking world and
We want it now (Woah)
Tonight I watched your fires burn out
The cold dead hands we pried
These guns from are yours oh oh oh oh, yeah
No, I don't wanna wait i know a better way
So step aside, come on
Or better yet, just go away
Our chance has finally come
There might not be another one now
No, we're not gonna wait, we want it now
Yeah, we're dousing the flames
We want it now
And it's burning down the
Walls you built high
And there's a steady stream of anger
And it's spilling from the coasts
A tidal wave
And the words say we reap what we sow
So where I bury you I'll build my home
In line to reclaim
But we're sick of the wait
We want it all and we want it now
Tonight I watched your fires burn out
The cold dead hands we pried
These guns from are yours oh oh oh oh
We want it all and we want it now
A tide is comin' to drown you out
We make ourselves at home while
Your body's still warm oh oh oh oh oh, woah
(Go) tradition tethers us to rituals
And are we all just clocks on wrong times?
And something triggers each and every
Time I hear you say "God bless this place"
But, your numbers are dwindling now
Though endangered we'll still hunt you down
With heads on a stake, long may you reign
We want it all and we want it now
Tonight I watched your fires burn out
The cold dead hands we pried
These guns from are yours oh oh oh oh
We want it all and we want it now
A tide is coming to drown you out
We make ourselves at home while
Your body's still warm oh oh oh oh, yeah
And there's a fire on the borders
And it's burning down the
Walls you built high
And there's a steady stream of anger
And it's spilling from the coasts
A tidal wave
We want the motherfucking world and
We want it now (Woah)
Tonight I watched your fires burn out
The cold dead hands we pried
These guns from are yours oh oh oh oh, yeah
No, I don't wanna wait i know a better way

No, we're not gonna wait, we want it now
Yeah, we're dousing the flames
We want it now
