Sudden Urge
Rise Against
[Intro] [Verse 1] We are names and we are faces Not listed in the pages You’re searching line by line The voices in the wire The glass under your tires The panic in your eyes [Pre-Chorus] And when we start to lose control And when we start to lose our minds That’s when I close my eyes [Chorus] And feel a sudden urge(Whoa-oh-oh-oh) To watch this whole town burn (Whoa-oh-oh-oh) Light up the whole damn sky (Whoa-oh-oh-oh) Like the Fourth of July Like the Fourth of July hey! [Verse 2] I am as patient as a volcano A butterfly in a landmine field I am a dandelion making guns go silent Sticking out of every barrel cold as steel [Pre-Chorus 2] And in this fight you’ve started I’m a moving target And I’m sick of running But the pain keeps coming [Chorus] Like a sudden urge(Whoa-oh-oh-oh) To watch this whole town burn (Whoa-oh-oh-oh) Light up the whole damn sky (Whoa-oh-oh-oh) Like the Fourth of July Like the Fourth of July hey! [Interlude] 3x [Bridge] Searching for something worth saving from this fire Try to envision the glass half-full Give me a reason to smother these flames now Before they begin to grow [Pre-Chorus] I can’t stop the sky from falling All I hear are voices calling Asking "Have you come to heal us?" Touch my shaking hand [Chorus] You’ll feel a sudden urge(Whoa-oh-oh-oh) To watch this whole town burn (Whoa-oh-oh-oh) Light up the whole damn sky (Whoa-oh-oh-oh) Like the Fourth of July The Fourth of July [Outro] From branch to root we are black inside Scorching the earth like it’s the Fourth of July If everything you knew was a goddamn lie Would you up and explode Like it’s the Fourth of July?
