Rise Against - Awake Too Long Lyrics
I watched the rise and the fall and the countermathI lived to see all the steps fall backI watched the worlds all crashed and crumblingJust to be renamed while we sleptWait to surf in the ocean's windingWe promise peace but the peace won't lastCause now we're forced to play so nervouslyWaiting for this hunger to eat at usI'm still gone in the rubbleLike a silt to numbI see a lotI've been awake too longWished there was something that could close my eyesTo all that I sayWait too long, it would be easierTo fall asleepWe fell in love but the love is running outWe follow roads but the roads are lentWe live to learn, and learn to live with themFalling from the madness we assembleI've seen the eyes of the ones left behindI've seen the child of the violent manNever once did our leaders apologizeFor battles they beginI can't look away or pretend not to seeAnd still I sayI've been awake too longWished there was something that could close my eyesTo all that I sayWait too long, it would be easierTo fall asleep
