We Don't Care

  • This is the end of everything
    A degenerate culture's elegy
    Now the reaper is waiting at the door
    Drunk on our blood and craving more

    This is the sound of a thousand holy feet
    Treading on a soon forgotten grave
    This is a life-long declaration of war,
    No sacrifice in vain
    Let them remember the name

    Feels like we've run out of air
    They tear the breath out from our lungs
    And we don't care
    Feels like we've run out of air
    Damnation passed down to our sons
    And we don't care

    Witness the end of apathy
    We have embraced our suffering
    Will the pain illuminate our fall?
    Or will we see the blame at all?

    This is the sound of a thousand holy feet
    Treading on a soon forgotten grave
    This is a life-long declaration of war,
    No sacrifice in vain
    Let them remember the name

    Feels like we've run out of air
    They tear the breath out from our lungs
    And we don't care
    Feels like we've run out of air
    Damnation passed down to our sons
    And we don't care

    No compromise to end
    We'll wash the blood off from our hands and fight again

    Feels like we've run out of air
    They tear the breath out from our lungs
    And we don't care
    Feels like we've run out of air
    Damnation passed down to our sons
    And we don't care

  • Cool GuyI personally believe this song is about how Christians have stopped speaking about the terrible things the world does, and how we are being trodden under foot by the workers of sin and the devil.
