Prayer of the Refugee - Rise Against
Warm yourself by the fire son
And the morning will come soon
Ill tell you stories of a better time
And a place that we once knew
Before we packed our bags and left all this
Behind us in the dust
We had a place that we could call home
And a life no one could touch
Don't hold me up now
I can stand my own ground
I don't need your help now
You won't let me down down down
Don't hold me up now
I can stand my own ground
I don't need your help now
You won't let me down down down down
We are the angry and the desperate
The hungry and the cold
We are the ones who kept quiet
Now always did what we were told
We've been sweating while you slept so calm
In the safety of your home
We've been pulling up the nails
That hold up everything you've known
Don't hold me up now
I can stand my own ground
I don't need your help now
You won't let me down down down
Don't hold me up now
I can stand my ground
I don't need your help now
You won't let me down down down
So open your eyes child let's be on our way
Broken windows and ashes are guarding the way
Keep quiet no longer we'll sing through the day
Of the lies that we've lost
And the life we've reclaimed
Don't hold me up now
I can stand my own ground
I don't need your help now
You won't let me down down down
Don't hold me up now
I can stand my own ground
I don't need your help now
You won't let me down down down
Don't hold me up
Don't need your help no no no
Don't hold me up
Don't hold me up
Don't let me tell tell tell tell tell
