| Rise Against – Elective Amnesia Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
We don't sleep very much. These triggers ache for the touch. Where's the strength we relied on? Here alone, like a crutch maybe that's what keeps us up all the night with a light on.. Howling screams simulate things that no longer take place Can this be what we've become? Paper-thin, overweight Pills to arouse us in tape Still we don't know what we want We can let go Can't you see? To lose control is to be Falling free First a spark then a flame now a fire! We explode! Into the darkest of nights, disconnect, cut the cord, lights are dead. Now they'll know, With everything comes a price! And each day we are torn between the right and the wrong between life and convenience, While you sleep, I'll complain It's always channels and chains It's like elective amnesia. As we grow older, in this place, it's just all over life's a race. What they make. First a spark, then a flame, now a fire We explode! Into the darkest of nights disconnect cut the cord lights are dead Now they'll know With everything comes a price! It could be minutes away It could be hours or days Before the bottom falls out Before the ground gets away Into this debt we are born a debt we try to repay and yet we blacken the sky smoke rising out of the flames Now they'll know... First a spark! then a flame! now a fire! We explode! Into the darkest of nights! disconnect! cut the cord! lights are dead! Now they'll know With everything comes a price! We explode! We explode! With everything comes a price! We explode! We explode... |

| Rise Against – Savior Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| I'm not disappointed in the album. Granted, they didn't do as much "hardcore" work as in previous albums, but I believe the messages of their songs are still as strong as ever. This isn't the only "love" song Rise Against has made, so it's not a big surprise. I actually like this song and think it shows a different talent of them. Just my opinion though! | |
| Rise Against – Hero of War Lyrics | 17 years ago |

This song is actually amazing if you listen to it a couple of times and really pay attention to the lyrics. Tim basically lets everyone know his, and most likely, the band's stance on the war. He's saying that soldiers aren't nearly as glorified as the media makes them up to be. I believe he also mixes in that the people were fighting have as much, if not more, pride in their country and our willing to take their flag to their grave as well. Awesome song. |
