Rise And Fall Lyrics - Singles - The Agonist

This human incompetence and it's consequence, 

Sub-human intolerance hitting home. This stupid, old 

Prejudice and it's consequence; civilian rights are 

Not right for ALL deserve rights, large and 

Small. 

Rise and Fall... each breath could be 

The last-chances have all come and passed. 

Why can't we just shake the urge to end 

Everything? Property lines slise through the 

Earth. The sadden urge to control our surroundings; 

Money and time now define the WORTHless we rise and we fall. 

Rise and Fall... each breath could be 

The last-chances have all come and passed. 

Fighting for land to own... and man will 

Always find reasons for war. Fighting wars yields 

Bitter rewards so let's contemplate what to fight 

For. 

From the oceans we rise... to the ashes 

We fall. All for one... not one for all. 

Where do we go when we no longer 

Exist? Apologies are useless, they're nothing, 

They're important. To savour the taste of youth 

And sweet control... Hierarchal classes 

Split the masses - pray your ranking's high. 

Off - white, low - life, nuisance in a flawless 

Life, ground underfoot like ashes. The world's 

A fucking gas chamber. 

Populations rise and fall
