Artist/Band: Rise Against
Lyrics for Song: Tip The Scales
Lyrics for Album: Siren Song Of The Counter Culture [2004]



Are we so alone, so distant, so forgotten

As we think ourselves to be?

These are our lives, but did they ever even matter?

Are we worth remembering?



As these machines feed on the tears

Of broken lives and dying dreams



We're throwing wrenches in the gears

Our lives will not be lived in vain



[Chorus]

When this is all said and done

We've spent this life on the run

Judged by the company we keep



Our language buried inside

These lungs that keep us alive

We breathe so selfishly



Promises we plan to break

Are made in whispered voices

Cuz' our despair knows many names

We make mistakes

But we apologize with roses

We never stopped to smell on the way



These machines feed on the tears

Of broken lives and dying dreams



We're throwing wrenches in the gears

Our lives will not be lived in vain



[Chorus]



We fell from the sky today

We melt into balls of clay

We sell ourselves everyday

Don't tell me how to live this way



Pushed so far to the edge

We teeter just on the brink

You can lead me to the bloodbath

But you can't make me drink



As these machines feed on the tears

Of broken lives and dying dreams

Throwing wrenches in the gears

Our lives will not be lived in vain
