The Agonist - Rise and Fall lyrics

rate me

This human incompetence and it's consequence,

Sub-human intolerance hitting home. This stupid, old

Prejudice and it's consequence; civilian rights are

Not right for ALL deserve rights, large and

Small.

Rise and Fall... each breath could be

The last-chances have all come and passed.

Why can't we just shake the urge to end

Everything? Property lines slice through the

Earth. The sudden urge to control our surroundings;

Money and time now define the worthless we rise and we fall.

Rise and Fall... each breath could be

The last-chances have all come and passed.

Fighting for land to own... and man will

Always find reasons for war. Fighting wars yields

Bitter rewards so let's contemplate what to fight

For.

From the oceans we rise... to the ashes

We fall. All for one... not one for all.

Where do we go when we no longer

Exist? Apologies are useless, they're nothing,

They're important. To savor the taste of youth

And sweet control... Hierarchal classes

Split the masses - pray your ranking's high.

Off - white, low - life, nuisance in a flawless

Life, ground underfoot like ashes. The world's

A fucking gas chamber.

Populations rise and fall
