Bricks Lyrics


Rise Against Bricks

Songwriters: Barnes, Brandon; Chasse, Christopher; Principe, Joseph Daniel; Mcilrath, Timothy;

When faith alone is not enough
To keep our hands barely above
We look for reason and come up empty-handed

And when our children fight our wars
While we sit back just keeping score
Were teaching murder not understanding now

We're setting the fires to light the way
We're burning it all to begin again
With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hands
We sing for change

The lives our buried sons have laid
We'll cancel debts we've yet to pay
How could we justify anything now

As long as we blindly obey
And do exactly what they say
We'll no one to blame but ourselves now

We're setting the fires to light the way
We're burning it all to begin again
With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hands
We sing for change

We run on the fumes of injustice
We'll never die with the fuel that you give us
Keep it coming 'cause I'm prepared to burn
Keep running from me at every turn

Your life around
(Into something true, into something true)
So turn your life around
(Into something true, something true)

We're setting the fires to light the way
We're burning it all to begin again
With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hands
We sing for change
