Disparity By Design Lyrics - Endgame - Rise Against

All the way at the bottom 

Of the barrels we cry out 

So ashamed of our tears that 

We blame only ourselves 

That's when they win 

They keep us convinced 

To lift up our chins 

These playing fields are level 

We all have a chance 

With that they dismiss 

The fast lanes they row 

What it takes, it depends on who you know 

Or where you came from 

Whose daughter are you? 

Whose fortunate son? 

Will it so 

To stick up our bones 

And piece from the letters 

How we settled the crimes

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Is this an over-reaching arm 

Or is this compassion? 

Is this a handout undeserved 

Or a just reparation? 

(a just reparation) 

All the way from the towers 

High above the ceiling tombs 

Tell themselves 

That they've earned this 

Like working hard 

Or playing by the rules 

But this is only part true 

A dangerous trick 

Played on me and you 

And so like a practical joke 

We put on these bootstraps 

So high that they broke 

Is this an over-reaching arm 

Or is this compassion? 

Is this a handout undeserved 

Or a just reparation? 

And like a single domino 

That falls while the rest stay vertical 

Will you fear these empty fairytales 

Or will you believe them? 

And if there's a God 

You better pray 

That this sleeping giant never wakes 

If we just take a step back 

A bigger picture we might view 

Perhaps the man in the gutter 

Is not so different from you 

Come in, out of the cold 

Forget all that you know 

Because there's always been room 

By the fire for you, oh 

Come in, out of the cold 

Will you believe them? 

Is this an over-reaching arm 

Or is this compassion? 

Is this a handout undeserved 

Or a just reparation? 

And like a single domino 

That falls while the rest stay vertical 

Will you fear these empty fairytales 

Or will you believe them?
