"The Unraveling" lyrics - RISE AGAINST

And all these things that we tie together
Keep unraveling apart
And the light that used to burn so bright
Now is dark
With anger-laced intent we set fire
To the bridges that remain
And they're wading through the current now

[Hook:]
And they drown in the flood of the tears
That have been wept
And I scream to the sky
No, you are not alone

If you think that your words will ever make a difference
Think again and carry on
Because the weight behind the hand that holds us is strong
But there is hope in the roar of a thousand pleading cries
And all these things that we tie together

The sound of their tongues being bitten
Is all I hear
As we fire at the whites of theirs eyes then
Dance on ashes of the world

[Hook:]
As they drown in the flood of the tears
That have been wept
And their tongues being bitten
Is all that I can hear
As I scream to the sky
I need you now

[Outro:]
Can you feel this truth now unraveling?
Or will you chase the burning sun
Into the sea
