Black Masks and Gasoline - Rise Against
simply because you can breathe doesn't mean you're alive,
or that you really live,
this life has taken its toll,
she just doesn't know how much more she can give
But here, at the top of the world,
where I raise my hands and I clench my fists,
they stand before me below demanding the
answers with flips of a switch
I don't understand where you got this idea,
so deeply engrained in your head (that this world)
is something that you must impress,
cause I couldn't care less
a need for revolution's rising,
it comes to the surface, gasping for air,
and we're not putting up with this planet
one more day, much less one more year
I don't understand where you got this idea,
so deeply engrained in your head
that this world is something that you must impress,
cause I couldn't care less
So here and now, in our rotting nation
the blood, it pours, it's all on our hands now
we live, in fear, of our own potential
to win, to lose, it's all on our hands now
I have an american dream,
but it involves black masks and gasoline,
one day I'll turn these thoughts into screams,
at a world that turned its back down on me
I don't understand where you got this idea,
so deeply engrained in your head
that this world is something that you must impress,
cause I couldn't care less
cause I couldn't care less
cause I couldn't care less
