Karaoké Prayer of the Refugee Rise Against

Warm yourself by the fire son and the morning will come soon

I'll tell you stories of a better time in a place that we once knew

Before we packed our bags and left all this behind us in the dust

We had a place that we could call home and a life no one could touch

Don't hold me up now

I can stand my own ground

I don't need your help now

You will let me down

Down, down

Don't hold me up now

I can stand my own ground

I don't need your help now

You will let me down

Down, down, down

We are the angry and the desperate

The hungry and the cold

We are the ones who kept quiet and always did what we were told

But we've been sweating while you slept so calm in the safety of your home

We've been pulling out the nails that hold up everything you've known

Don't hold me up now

I can stand my own ground

I don't need your help now

You will let me down

Down, down

Don't hold me up now

I can stand my own ground

I don't need your help now

You will let me down

Down, down

So open your eyes child

Let's be on our way

Broken windows and ashes are guiding the way

Keep quiet no longer

We'll sing through the day of the lives that we've lost and the lives we've reclaimed

Go

Don't hold me up now

I can stand my own ground

I don't need your help now

You will let me down

Down, down

Don't hold me up now

I can stand my own ground

I don't need your help now

You will let me down

Down, down

Don't hold me up

Don't hold me up

No no no

Don't hold me up

Don't hold me up

Don't let me down, down

Down, down

Down
