As the song opens, I listen to the intro with such focus! This song has several metaphors throughout the entire process. What is brilliant about it; is we’re (US Taxpayers) told not to “rise against” to our government, period. What each band member brings to the table, including all the meaning in their albums, touch on so many issues that I have (personally), along with many others, with our government. Come to think of it, we can’t even talk about this because of the recent bill passed and signed just last week. You can't feel the heat until you hold your hand over the flame That's why we won't back down You can't fill your cup until you empty all it has That's why we won't back down She told me that she never would face the world again We'll sneak out while they sleep We'll sneak out while they sleep Because we won't back down No, we won't back down Lyrics taken from /lyrics/r/rise_against/satellite.html |
