Verse 1 I woke in a different world today All that I held dear had been stripped away Because a man came to town, he's going to burn it all down Some fought, some followed, some looked the other way
Verse 2 He's a wolf in the cloth of a sheep And he preys on the fearful and the weak With a serpent's tongue he rages against the prophets and the sages He snuck in by the back roads while we were all asleep
Chorus Oh rise up, rise up Let's stop this train before it crashes He won't let up until he's won He'll burn it down just to be king of the ashes Never shut, never shut up Because hate is gasoline and silence is the matches
Verse 3 Now pay attention children and be brave It's in your hands to make this darkness go away Turn away from childish things and all the suffering they bring Stand up to the bigots and the wicked, or be their slaves
Chorus Oh rise up, rise up Let's stop this train before it crashes He won't let up until he's won He'll burn it down just to be king of the ashes Never shut, never shut up Because hate is gasoline and silence is the matches Because hate is gasoline and silence is the matchesTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
