Rise Against

can you hear the desperate cries that are calling out your name?
twisting your arms, holding out their hands
and tugging at your sleeve,
do you feel this underlying sense of urgency
or are you as blind as me?
I hit the ground and I'm still running
but I need a place to stay tonight,
I swear I'll be gone in the morning
I just need somewhere now
I can't bear the thought of losing,
I dread the attention winning brings
and ever since the day I came
I can stand without your strings
I'm so sick of all these people
but I'm scared to be alone
and if this life has taught me anything
I forgot it long ago and so I
I hit the ground and I'm still running
but I need a place to stay tonight,
