Lyrics

Our dreams are dark now
Dawn to dusk we hide away from life
They tie our hands down
And drape these blindfolds to shroud our bright eyes
They'll rip your heart out
Pin it up, and let the daggers fly
Dust and cobwebs
Kick off the dirt and let's see how long we believe their lies
Oh, they've strung us up like marionettes
When all this time their greed and grime
Have dragged us to the end
Are you dead now?
Don't let the bastards work you over
We're so sick of being let down
So lift your tired bones up from off the floor
You're alive now
So light the fires and tear the walls down
Sick and tired of being left out?
Then lift your hung heads high
Rise up, rise up, rise up and scream
So blind and bound now
Cracked porcelain dolls kept tucked away from sight
They bolt the lid down
And leave us rotting, ripe to lose our right minds
They'll snuff your light out
Drown your hope then hang you out to dry
Rusted hobnails can't hold the lot of us
No way, so they can sink their knives
Oh, they've strung us up like marionettes
While all this time their creed and crime
Have caused us to unhinge
Are you dead now?
Don't let the bastards work you over
We're so sick of being let down
So lift your tired bones up from off the floor
You're alive now
So light the fires and tear the walls down
Sick and tired of being left out?
Then lift your hung heads high
Rise up, rise up, rise up and scream
Are you dead now?
Don't let the bastards f*ck you over
We're so sick of being let down
So lift your tired bones up from off the floor
You're alive now
So light the fires and tear the walls down
Sick and tired of being left out?
Then lift your hung heads high
And rise up, rise up, rise up and scream
Rise up, rise up and scream
