Against Me! - Y'all Don't Wanna Step To Dis Lyrics
It's like I'm dying to forgetAll the sleepless nightsLying perfectly alone and stillI can drink till victoryI'll drink to the mightyDrink until I dieOr at least until the sunriseWhen honesty, as popular as a plagueComes to remind meThe dead's winning the race with meGoing nowhereRight down the street, a prostitute is selling the closest thing to loveThat this country has to offerAnd Alachua still sleeps tonight, and Alachua still sleeps tonightAnd Alachua still sleeps tonightSo we fought for the republicWhile the Catholic sun filled every eyeFrom the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean, victoryI'll drink to the mightyWe died for oilWe died for bordersKilled for democracyStill believed every platformCan you handle the death, accept what we create together?I still know every politician's a *****ing monsterCulture kills bureaucrats and all other undesirablesHistory said we died for freedom but today no justice was servedAnd America still sleeps tonightAnd America still sleeps tonightAnd America still sleeps tonightAnd I hope it doesn't wake up tomorrowSo we boasted that we were championsEach country singing its own praise like a rock thrown into the oceanHumanity was rising to the top, two world wars laterCountless military interventions, we erect monuments to historyAnd give apologies to the deadAll that was fought for the living is quickly forgottenWe don't remember the dates, we don't remember the reasons, we have no idea what's going onBuilding histories of western corporationsIt doesn't even turn my stomach to see the pictures of atrocities anymoreGoing numb in the new order of the new centuryAnd Alachua still sleeps tonight, and America still sleeps tonightAnd the world still sleeps tonightAnd Alachua still sleeps tonightAnd America still sleeps tonightAnd the world still sleeps tonight
