"The Great Die-Off" lyrics - RISE AGAINST

There's a fire on the borders and
It's burning down the walls you built high
And there's a steady stream of anger and
It's spilling from the coasts, a tidal wave

[Bridge 1:]
And the words say we reap what we sow
So where I bury you I'll build my home
In line to reclaim
But we're sick of the wait

[Chorus:]
We want it all and we want it now
Tonight I watched your fires burn out
The cold dead hands we pried
These guns from are yours, ooh
We want it all and we want it now
A tide is coming to drown you out
We make ourselves at home
While your body's still warm, ooh

Tradition tethers us to rituals and
Are we all just clocks on wrong times?
And something triggers each
And every time I hear you say
"God bless this place"

[Bridge 2:]
But your numbers are dwindling now
Though endangered we'll still hunt you down
With heads on a stake
Long may you reign

[Chorus:]
We want it all and we want it now
Tonight I watched your fires burn out
The cold dead hands we pried
These guns from are yours, ooh
We want it all and we want it now
A tide is coming to drown you out
We make ourselves at home
While your body's still warm, ooh yeah

And there's a fire on the borders and
It's burning down the walls you built high
And there's a steady stream of anger and
It's spilling from the coasts, a tidal wave

[Chorus 2:]
We want the motherfucking world and we want it now
Tonight I watched your fires burn out
The cold dead hands we pried
These guns from are yours, ooh yeah
No I don't wanna wait
I know a better way
So step aside come on
Or better yet just go away
Our chance has finally come
There might not be another one

Now
No we're not gonna wait
We want it now
Yeah, we're dousing the flames
We want it now
