    ;From their new CD : Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace.
    LYRICS :
    One is for envy
    And one just for spite
    The cuts in my heart
    They show in your eyes
    Don't make it better
    The twisting knife
    Turns all by itself
    Move on to someone else
    Your self-liberation
    Will leave this behind
    Beyond slings and arrows
    That rain on our minds
    You'll make it better
    Shake it off
    It never mattered anyway
    ::chorus::
    If we don't make it alive
    Well it's a hell of a good day to die
    All our light that shines strong
    Only lasts for so long
    And it's ashes to ashes again
    Should we even try to pretend?
    All our light that shines strong
    Only lasts for so long
    The banner you're waving
    Is burning and red
    It's blocking the sunlight
    That shines overhead
    You against the world
    Diamonds and pearls
    Voices inside you churn
    Watch the city burn
    Your own liberation
    Will leave them behind
    All the slings and arrows
    That rain on your mind
    Don't make it better
    Break it cause
    It never mattered anyway

  • @thebassline707
    @thebassline707 13 років тому +2

    @mondrometal only my opinion, but burning red to me symbolizes intense emotions. relationships can be very passionate and that does not fade instantly. this still burning passion (the banner your waving) can "cloud the sunlight." you have to accept being alone again (you against the world). you kind of feel like your world has been destroyed and you have to start over (watch the city burn). but with this chance of "self-liberation" you can move on past "the arrows that rain on your mind."

  • @thebassline707
    @thebassline707 13 років тому

    @mondrometal i think this song is about accepting that two people who were in love have to go their separate ways and in spite of the pain it causes (the twisting knife) they have to move on, cause hey, if not, may as well die. i'm going through something similar to that in my life right now, so maybe i'm biased, but this song is actually helping me. love, pain, even life itself (all our light that shines strong) are only temporary and we have to accept that and make the best of it.

    • @lysssky2

      going through this too, ended a relationship of 7 years twice, and well now I’m certain its finally time to part ways, I haven’t talked to her in over a month and I think its finally for good, the relationship just couldn’t work out no matter how much I wanted it to, or wanted to believe it could. I love her until the end but realized that its better to love myself and find the person that will be with me no matter what, and really want to live their life to the fullest with me.
      I went through the hardest time of my life, lost my job, my savings, my car, my home in southern california, and my gf of 7 years, she was around through this all, and never gave me the support I needed, I felt alone more than anything, and just thinking about it now, its kinda fucked, she played me on soo hard, opening up just enough to keep me around but never really being there for me like a real gf should, it was a complicated relationship, a lot of push pull, getting closer but never quite there

  • @thebassline707
    @thebassline707 13 років тому

    @mondrometal thanks...now that i think about it, i think these lyrics are applicable in any sort of situation where you are forced to leave behind what's comfortable or loved. death, moving away, etc. i JUST ended an intense relationship so these words naturally relate to that.

    @gerlachrose they have a very similar sound, mainly because rise against ripped off the offsprings style, not knocking it, it's a great style to rip off, and they do it will, but if you hear a offspring song and instantly think "wow they sound a lot like rise against" you need to go play in traffic. thats like listening to the beatles and saying "wow they remind me a lot of oasis"
