Staring through the disconnect I felt my own inconsequence Beneath the standing armies of discontent I felt my own inconsequence On a waiting train that wouldn't leave I prayed these chords my soul to keep Tonight, they won't take me alive Cause there's a song everyone knows Though no one sang a single note I can hear it From the rumbling jungles of our self-defeat To the sullen barracks where no one dares to sleep On the battlefields of broken hearts I saw this world f**ing torn apart Just waiting for nothing Tonight, they won't take me alive
Cause there's a song everyone knows Though no one sang a single note I can hear it Across the broken heartland, we're all coming out Blasting the sound of the trodden down And tonight we're for it f**ing verse, bridge and chorus No one knows who won the wars, but we know something's died Sleepless, workless, stuck in line Giving in for the first time We just stopped waiting for someone to save us They tell me we got something to lose (Like what, to whom?) They tell me we got something to lose (Like what, to whom?) And I know you hear it too
