Rise Or Fall

Please don't suffer, God, just make it quick
With all you've had, you don't know what it takes to beg
You lost your cause, lost your time to kill
You won't matter much when they've all got their fill

Mothers teach you to crawl
Fathers teach you to rise or fall
Mothers grieve for us all
Fathers teach you you're on your own

I don't quiver, I don't squirm a sweat
Your heart's not gone but you've got nothing to make a fist
Sooner or later, I'll just flip the switch
Forget what you did or you won't know how to face this Hell

Mothers teach you to crawl
Fathers teach you to rise or fall
Mothers grief for us all
Fathers teach you to take it on

All my fears awakening, I've let them back
All this flashed before my eyes I'd never had
Words no consolation, none will suffice
Walk, my son, I've taught you well
You're on your way down

Fuck the past, I'm up and gone as well (you're gonna lie with your curse as you made it)
I'm coming fast, you got nothing left to say (you never saw with your cause, there's a conscience)
In the end you've got no answers (you're gonna lie with your curse as you made it)
So much pain here, you don't know how to take my hand (you never saw with your cause, there's a conscience)

Mothers teach you to crawl
Fathers teach you to rise of fall
There's no dream for us all
Never see what you're reaching for

Mothers teach you to crawl
Fathers teach you to walk your own
Mothers teach you to take what you will

Bang, you're alive
Bang, you're alive
Bang, you're alive
Bang, you're alive
Bang, you're alive
