Alexisonfire - Midnight Regulations (EP) Lyrics
I find myself concernedFor the common man, these daysEvil are the mindsThat push the divideForced to live a lifeIn fear that his future is on the waneMidnight regulationsMidnight regulationsBurned his candle downWorking to make ends meetBut what can be doneAbout the way things have becomeFingers to the boneReady to admit defeatMidnight regulationsMidnightBrother! There is no charityFor the common manWhen he is in need of reliefAnd now he's hanging onTo his final stitch of faithSo, here's to all the yearsOf deaf ear fallen prayersRich men behind closed doorsAre trying to keep him in his placeMidnight regulationsMidnight regulationsOh, all you common menYou need to fight for a new wayOld hearts, we need to mendIt's time to start againPalace walls dismantledBrick by brick, you will have your dayMidnight regulationsMidnightBrother! There is no charityFor the common manWhen he is in need of reliefThey say just to hold onto your hopeBut you know if you swallow your prideYou will chokeBrother! There is no charity (there is no charity)For the common manWhen he is in need of relief (when he is in need)Brother!Brother!Men!Men!Midnight RegulationsMidnight,Midnight regulations
