The Unraveling

Artists : Rise Against : The Unraveling

and all these things that we tie together / keep unraveling apart / and the light that used to burn so bright / now is dark / with anger-laced intent we set fire / to the bridges that remain / and they're wading thru the current now / and they drown in the flood of the tears / that have been wept / and i scream to the sky / "no, you are not alone..." / if you think that you're words will ever make a difference / think again and carry on / because the weight behind the hand that holds us is strong / but there is hope in the roar of a thousand pleading cries / and all these things that we tie together / the sound of their tongues being bitten / is all I hear / as we fire at the whites of theirs eyes then / dance on ashes of the world / as they drown in the flood of the tears / that have been wept / and their tongues being bitten / is all that I can hear / as I scream to the sky, / "I need you now..." / can you feel this truth now unraveling? / or will you chase the burning sun / into the sea
