Rise Against
The Great Die-Off
[Verse 1]
And there's a fire on the borders
And it's burning down the walls you built high
And there's a steady stream of anger
And it's spilling from the coasts
A tidal wave

[Pre-Chorus]
And the words say we reap what we sow
So where I bury you I'll build my home
In line to reclaim, but we're sick of the wait

[Chorus]
We want it all and we want it now
Tonight I watched your fires burn out
The cold dead hands we pried these guns from are yours
Oh-oh-oh-oh, we want it all and we want it now
A tide is comin' to drown you out
We make ourselves at home while your body's still warm
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, woah

[Verse 2]
(Go!)
Tradition tethers us to rituals
And are we all just clocks on wrong times?
And something triggers each and every time I hear you say
"God bless this place"
[Pre-Chorus]
But your numbers are dwindling now
Though endangered we'll still hunt you down
With heads on a stake, long may you reign

[Chorus]
We want it all and we want it now
Tonight I watched your fires burn out
The cold dead hands we pried
These guns from are yours
Oh-oh-oh-oh, we want it all and we want it now
A tide is coming to drown you out
We make ourselves at home while your body's still warm
Oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah

[Verse 3]
And there's a fire on the borders
And it's burning down the walls you built high
And there's a steady stream of anger
And it's spilling from the coasts
A tidal wave

[Chorus]
We want the motherfucking world and we want it now (Woah)
Tonight I watched your fires burn out
The cold dead hands we pried these guns from are yours
Oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah
[Outro]
No, I don't wanna wait
I know a better way
So step aside, come on
Or better yet, just go away
Our chance has finally come
There might not be another one now
No, we're not gonna wait, we want it now
Yeah, we're dousing the flames, we want it now
