Fists Fall

(album: Atavist - 2011)

No more tears
Stand up to your fears

Keep your voices raised
Keep your knuckles bloody
Keep your voices raised
Keep your knuckles bloody

No more tears

I was born to be broken
(Broken)
Calling, gagging, spitting, falling, bleeding, begging vermin
I exist without purpose
(Purpose)
Teach me, tell me, push me, hurt me, hit me harder

Fists fall like rain
On my knees, but I'm not afraid
Cowards die everyday
I'll face the attack
Pressed to the wall but fighting back
I'll face the attack
Pressed to the wall but fighting back
I'll face the attack
Pressed to the wall but fighting back

And now that you see me
I'm terrified

Keep your voices raised
Keep your knuckles bloody
Keep your voices raised
Keep your knuckles bloody

No more tears

I am on the brink of destruction
Pushing, pulling, nagging, feeling sweet seduction
I've had enough
Of the lies and the alibis on your lips

Fists fall like rain
On your knees, you look so afraid
Cowards die everyday
I'll face the attack
Pressed to the wall, but fighting back
I'll face the attack
Pressed to the wall, but fighting back
I'll face the attack
Pressed to the wall, but fighting back

And now that you see me
I'm terrified

Keep your voices raised
Keep your knuckles bloody
Keep your voices raised
Keep your knuckles bloody

Standing over me, my body
His fists swollen and bloody
My marks and raw scars
I'm not gonna take it anymore
I'm sick of this shit
Not gonna flinch
If I gotta go down, it'll be swinging
You will see you can't break me
I'm not gonna take it anymore

Keep your knuckles bloody
No more tears
No more fears
Strike the anchors
Use your anger
Defy the master
Break the rules

Keep your pride locked up inside
It belongs to you
They think they're stronger, bigger, better
But they're just jealous cowards
Fuck what they say
Fuck what they think
About us

Keep your voices raised
Keep your knuckles bloody
Keep your voices raised
Keep your knuckles bloody
Cowards

And now that you see me
Now that you see me
Now that you see me
Now that you see me
You are terrified
You are terrified
You are terrified
