Rise Against – Elective Amnesia Lyrics 16 years ago
These are the lyrics.

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 night with a light on.


Glowing screens simulate
Ads that no longer take place.
Can this be what we've become?
Paper-thin, overweight,
Pills to arouse or sedate,
Still we don't know what we want.

We can't let go,
Can't you see?
To lose control,
Is to be

Finally 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,
Why lose sleep, Why complain?
There's always channels to change,
It's like elective amnesia.

As we grow older,In this place,
Let's just start over,
Let's erase

What they've made!

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 gives way.
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!
(First a spark,
Then a flame,
Now a fire!)

We explode.
(We explode!)

With everything comes a price!
(Disconnect,
Cut the cord,
Lights are dead!)

We explode,
We explode!

Muse – Uprising Lyrics 16 years ago
I think the meaning is probably about, like "evil" rulers, and how that the people will always win because no matter what the ruler will die.

"You know that their time's coming to an end,
We have to unify and watch our flag ascend"
The people group together and make their country a better place after the evil guy dies, something like that, with a new, more "good" leader.

"They'll try to push drugs to keep us all dumbed down,
And hope that we will never see the truth around,"

Like how the leaders always try to hide everything they do, blah.

"We will be victorious."

The people will win, blah.

Thats all I have to say.

Also amazing song :)

As the quote says in the music video, "Every action has a reaction. We've got one planet, one chance."

Hoobastank – Running Away Lyrics 16 years ago
This(I hate to bring another band into this but..) is why Rise Against is wayy better, because they make songs for people to hear them, get the meaning. The singer, Tim McIlrath , said he'd rather have 100 people hear his song than 100 dollars in his pocket.

Skindred – Rat Race Lyrics 16 years ago
I think this song is about how that we are stuck in our problems we have created and it will eventually get us in the future like how we are slowly destroying the Earth and mankind will slowly die with it.

"And it will never let you go."
As in we cant escape from what we have done, it wont let us go.

"So beware, you'll find no winners in there."
You will find no one that can win in escaping.. blah blah :/

I don't know im not good at this stuff. :P
