Behind Closed Doors lyrics
Song information
Artist: Rise Against Album: The Sufferer & The Witness
Lyrics
Chairs thrown and tables toppled Hands armed with broken bottles Standing no chance to win but We're not running, we're not running
There's a point I think we're missing It's in the air we raise our fists in In the smiles we cast each other My sister, my brother
About the time we gave up hoping We never find these locks still open Stumbling on stones unturned The hurt we feel, we all have earned
The lines we've cross in search of change But all they see is treason
[Chorus:] Although we have no obligation to stay alive On broken backs we beg for mercy, we will survive (Break out) I won't be left here Behind closed doors
Bonfires burn like beacons Guiding the lost and weakened Flames dance on crashing waves Guiding ships who've gone astray
Time out, let's stop and think this through We've all got better things to do Than talk in circles, run in place Answers inches from my face
[Chorus]
Black eyes, broken fingers Blood drips and I let it run Down my lips and to my swollen gums When hope is non-existent Our instincts all scream "run" We never turn our backs or even bite our tongue
[Chorus x2]
