Rise Against - Bricks lyrics

When faith alone is not enough To keep our heads barely above We look for reason and come up empty-handed And when our children fight our wars While we sit back just keeping score We're teaching murder not understanding now We're setting the fires to light the way We're burning it all to begin again With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hands We sing for change The lives our buried sons have laid Will cancel debts we've yet to pay How could we justify anything now As long as we blindly obey and do exactly what they say We'll have no one to blame but ourselves now We're setting the fires to light the way We're burning it all to begin again With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hands We sing for change We run on the fumes of injustice We'll never die with the fuel that you give us Keep it coming cause I'm prepared to burn Keep running from me at every turn Your life around (into something true, into something true) So turn your life around (into something true, something true) We're setting the fires to light the way We're burning it all to begin again With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hand We sing for change
