While Running with Sissors

“
So I can breathe againSo we can live like we lived back thenWhen these lakes were only puddles,And these monsters were still men.‘Cause we are but saddled horses,And they bet on every race.But there’s contempt bred in the stallionFor the man that calls its name.
 
And we can almost hear the choirEchoing down streets on fireSinging “keep calm, restless world,This too shall pass.”
”—Tim McIlrath’s Unknown Song

So I can breathe again
So we can live like we lived back then
When these lakes were only puddles,
And these monsters were still men.
‘Cause we are but saddled horses,
And they bet on every race.
But there’s contempt bred in the stallion
For the man that calls its name.

 


And we can almost hear the choir
Echoing down streets on fire
Singing “keep calm, restless world,
This too shall pass.”

”—Tim McIlrath’s Unknown Song
