Rise Against Drones song lyrics

Deep inside these burning buildings

Voices die to be heard

Years we spent teaching a lesson

We ourselves had never learned

And if strength is born from heartbreak

Then mountains I could move

And if walls could speak I'd pray

That they would tell me what to do

If you see me, please just walk on by, walk on by

Forget my name and I'll forget it too

(Simple lives...) failed attempts at living simple lives, simple lives

Are what keep me coming back to you

No signs of life here, save the embers, the occasional flame

We'd know the way but can't remember, conception to the grave

Shout confessions from the greatest heights, where no one can hear

All my fears, my insecurities are falling like tears

If you see me, please just walk on by, walk on by

Forget my name and I'll forget it too

(Simple lives...) failed attempts at living simple lives, simple lives

Are what keep me coming back to you.

The drones will slave away, they're working overtime

They serve a faceless queen, they never question why

(I won't come back!) disciples of a God, they neither live nor breathe

(I won't come back!) but we have bills to pay, yeah we have mouths to feed!

I won't come back!

And if you see me, please just walk on by, walk on by

Forget my name and I'll forget it too

(Simple lives...) failed attempts at living simple lives, simple lives

Are what keep me coming back to you

I'm coming back to you!
