How Many Walls

How Many Walls - Rise Against

Written by：Brandon Barnes/Zach Blair/Joseph Principe/Tim McIlrath

How many walls can you put up

How many guns 'til you feel safe

How many times can we watch this story

Over and over and over again

And how many years have we wasted

Counting the lies that we've been fed

For something to change we have waited

Over and over and over again

I'm entertained by the monkey on your back

Can we still call it a joke if no one laughs

It's either going up in smoke around me

Or according to plan

A bitter sweet disaster mounting over and over again

How many walls can you put up

How many guns 'til you feel safe

How many times can we watch this story

Over and over and over again

How many years have we wasted

Counting the lies that we've been fed

For something to change we have waited

Over and over and over again

Chasing our own tail the more we learn

The less we know

As the monsters lost in history

And now making their return

As we bow down

Roll out the carpet red as rose

We should have known

How many walls can you put up

How many guns 'til you feel safe

How many times can we watch this story

Over and over and over again

How many years have we wasted

Counting the lies that we've been fed

For something to change we have waited

Over and over and over and over again

How many walls

How many guns

How many times

Over and over and over again

Over and over and over again

And how many lives have been wasted

How many bodies laid to rest

Sick of the lies the same old story

All over and over and over and over

Over and over and over and over again
