[00:00.00] Album: Endgame
[00:02.60] Released on 14th March 2011
[00:04.94] Rise Against - Endgame
[00:09.77]
[00:20.04] And on that day they'll tell you
[00:22.22] That life hummed on with no clue
[00:24.64] The warning signs were all
[00:26.56] Dismissed or shouted down
[00:28.42] So it goes
[00:29.38] The kings all failed to tell us
[00:31.94] The madmen failed to sell us
[00:34.28] On what would then become
[00:36.20] The only life we know?
[00:37.57]
[00:38.07] Were they burning signal fires
[00:40.87] To guide us to the fields?
[00:43.11] Or building funeral pyres?
[00:45.42] The outcome of a final appeal
[00:47.62]
[00:48.12] The city lines are down
[00:50.16] The Kerosene's run out
[00:52.31] The fact surreal, we relied upon
[00:56.61] Let's shed this unclean skin
[00:58.74] And start to feel again
[01:00.91] 'Cause all the shoulders
[01:02.54] On which to cry are gone
[01:06.55]
[01:10.22] The paranoaia gripped us
[01:12.38] The rain turned engines to rust
[01:14.87] The panic set in like a cancer to our hearts
[01:18.70] Spreading through
[01:19.76] We bet on finite genius
[01:22.09] Or prayed for gods to save us
[01:24.37] But there was no antidote
[01:26.25] Disease tore us apart
[01:28.01]
[01:28.51] We left bodies in the fields
[01:31.02] So numb that we forgot how to feel
[01:33.33]
[01:33.83] The city lines are down
[01:35.92] The Kerosene's run out
[01:38.10] The fact surreal, we relied upon
[01:42.36] Let's shed this unclean skin
[01:44.51] And start to feel again
[01:46.65] 'Cause all the shoulders
[01:48.18] On which to cry are gone
[01:52.76]
[01:55.87] He looked at the fields
[01:57.72] And then his hands
[02:00.18] "All I need is what I have"
[02:04.29] Then shed a tear of happiness
[02:08.29]
[02:12.87] She watched the world
[02:14.65] Crumble away
[02:16.89] "Is this the end of yesterday?"
[02:21.22] "Lord, I hope so", is all he said
[02:24.84]
[02:26.70] Gone are the old guards
[02:30.79] Gone are the cold, cold wars
[02:34.84] Weightless we go forth
[02:38.45] On wings of amnesty
[02:43.02]
[02:46.98] Oh, we relied on now
[02:48.91]
[02:49.41] The city lines are down
[02:51.52] The Kerosene's run out
[02:53.47] The fact surreal, we relied upon
[02:57.43] Let's shed this unclean skin
[02:59.42] And start to feel again
[03:01.49] With no more shoulders
[03:02.95] Shoulders to cry on now
[03:06.01]
[03:06.61] No more, no more
[03:10.69] No more, no more
[03:14.76] No more, no more
[03:18.72] The weight that we once felt is gone
[03:22.18]
