Among The Dead - Tim Armstrong

Among the dead

Among the dead

Among the dead

We will rise

Among the dead

Among the dead

Among the dead

We will rise

If you count me out you better think again

You better realize nah I'm not stopping

This is where I start this is where I begin

This is where I stop this is where it ends

Woke up in a downtown street

Tough lifestyle living in rubble

Broken bones broken homes

Broken kid's living in the jungle

It's about seven in the east bay cold as hell middle of the summer

Me and Jesse Matt and Dave Mello - he was the drummer

My momma said you better watch your back boy

Keep your head up and be a shot blocker

On the outside looking in wit the freaks and the thugs and all the punk rockers

They say I'm outta step in this world just step back man I ain't gonna warn ya

Here's a message for the disenfranchised of East bay California

Among the dead

Among the dead

Among the dead

We will rise

Among the dead

Among the dead

Among the dead

We will rise

Let me tell you something about the Eastbay its California but it ain't sunny

All my dreams came crashing down I'm outta home my street got no money

And got no band and got no one around the music is gone man

No where to sleep on the ground wondering what the f**k went wrong now

Know what it's like to walk among the dead

I'm alone in total isolation

No ones there this is my final destination

Old man preaching bout war and peace and the path and total damnation

I always seem to get up get out and survive in every situation

Among the dead

Among the dead

Among the dead

We will rise

Among the dead

Among the dead

Among the dead

We will rise

Than one day Matt says let's get the band together let's do this one more time

So I'm ok that sounds good let's give it a try let's give it one more run

They got no rides

We got drums

We got guitars

We got the songs

We got the songs

We got the songs

We got the songs

All night long

Among the dead

Among the dead

Among the dead

We will rise

Among the dead

Among the dead

Among the dead

We will rise
