Rise Against Lyrics


Armed with the fury of classic punk acts as Minor Threat
and Bad Brains, blended with intelligent vocals and a
serious commitment to providing a positive alternative to
the oft-dreary and disenchanted aura that engulfs most punk
bands, Chicago’s Rise Against might be seen as an outcast
amongst its peers.

“It was almost cool to be negative, especially around
Chicago,” bassist Joe Principe recalls. “So, vocalist Tim
[McIlrath] and I had this main goal of putting a positive
light on things. There are so many bands that sing about More...

Review about Rise Against songs
Depression | Reviewer: Scott B
    ------ About the song Dancing For Rain performed by Rise Against

I believe that this song is not about any major political events or any of that sort of stuff, but instead about Depression, and how the Depressed people "Dance For Rain". The rain could be taken in the terms of attention, the pursuit of happiness, etc. It just makes more sense for me.

Never forget | Reviewer: Anonymous
    ------ About the song Roadside performed by Rise Against

I love this song so much, but it reminds me of the first guy I fell in love with. He broke my heart and when he was gone, I realised how much I loved him. We didn't even talk when we broke up, he just sent a text. Bang. Done. That broke me down when I realised how much he meant to me. I find him in some of the things I do "I don't think, you'd see the places inside me that I found you". I've found someone much better now, But I still have feelings for him, "leftover feelings of you" I guess you never forget your first love though.

Amazing!! | Reviewer: Kayleigh

    ------ About the song Injection performed by Rise Against

I enjoy reading what everyone thinks the lyrics mean. And the flamewars that ensue when people think they're right.

I CANNOT believe that everyone agrees on Rise Against lyrics.

Fantastic song, even better fan base IMO

<3 thx for restoring my faith in humanity

The dirt whispered | Reviewer: B.C.
    ------ About the song The Dirt Whispered performed by Rise Against

This is a great song, I always feel great after listening to it.

Also, guys, you have to stop with the 'this album is better' thing. All of their albums get a ten, so why would any one be better than any other. Personal preferance is ok, I don't mind it. But the whole ' no you're wrong about that' thing is childish, I think we should know better. Rise against has plenty songs about equality of humans, so let's all just get along and listen to R. A., ok?

Sorry about that whole rant. It just kinda bugs me that people who listen to Rise against would think or act like that. Sorry again, great song, I'm out.

guys... | Reviewer: truth
    ------ About the song Prayer Of The Refugee performed by Rise Against

the lyrics guys, listen the lyrics... hey the lyri-, hey guys hey.. hey listen guys... the lyrics; guys listen; guys... the lyrics hey...

everything people believe the lyrics are to be are what they hold dear and how they imagine humanity to be as a whole: either on a large scale or a personal level. it's music, you're supposed to feel.

so feel it.

Referred to what Arafel said | Reviewer: Zwein
    ------ About the song Injection performed by Rise Against

I mostly think the same way as this user do (or at least the line is almost the same)

The drug he mention might be anything you want it to be: music, behaviors, power, love, real drugs and even life itself.
The fact is that this song always turns out to give a positive meaning in any case with the "let me breathe - don't let me go" whole thing.
Cuz I think that people might think that they want to die, they are not understanded enough or they want to cut theirself, but I'm sure that NO ONE wants to lose their very own self, even if compared with life.

I think that this might be another face of the thousands one of this song. :)

Best song of all time | Reviewer: Patrick
    ------ About the song Survive performed by Rise Against

The song isn't about being constantly hurt, nor is it about having a perfect life. It points out both of these extremes, in an effort to explain that everyone lives somewhere in between. No one is ever 100% depressed, but no one is perfect. By using "fucking", Tim is adding emphasis to the sentence he's using the phrase in. Don't we all listen harder when we hear a naughty word? He is also swearing to point out the irony of his statement, because the state of "never get so great" either never lasts or never happens. Perfect song, describes life just as it is. And, as always with Rise Against, the message is positive, even if not directly so

reply of relligions of conspiracy (anti - prejudice) | Reviewer: ThedemonsPOV
    ------ About the song Drones performed by Rise Against

the problem, is not relligion itself, but the prejudice that follows with it, the judgement, and brutality from focusing on only one entity without feeling anothers pain... you may not know it, but relligion is a theory, the truth of hell and heaven HAVE NEVER been actually discovered, the truth lies smoldered under both satanists and christians, satan isnt a real name: it is stereotypical, and used i most genres to racially discriminate demons for genetic appearance, etc. if there IS a god, and IF HE DOES love all, why is the race of demons SO HATED? if what said about relligion is true you must open your heart to everyones possitions and heir views, and dissolve sides that make walls and corners. would you beat up and murder a demon if he'd done nothing wrong, all becuase of his appearance, and not of innocence or guiltyness? pfft, probably.

This song teaches youtoignore a person of what theyve done, and what they may become, and walk on by as if not holding a grudge... it doesnt matter what symbol you hold, what appearance you have, it all matters in innocence and anti prejudice. this is my theory, antiprejudice religion, and can be taken as Q4, I wish for world harmony and go against human brutality. this is to the latest replyer of alexxe at the top on page 1.
