Zitate und Songtexte von Rise Against

If love is a labor I'll slave till the end

I've been here so long, I think that it's time to move
The winter's so cold, summer's over too soon
Let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow

With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hands, we sing for change.

And if strength is born from heartbreak,
many mountains I could move.
And if walls could speak I'd pray
that they would tell me what to do.

If you see me, please just walk on by, walk on by.
Forget my name and I'll forget it too.
Failed attempts at living simple lives, simple lives
always keep me coming back to you.

How we survive, is what makes us who we are.

Somewhere between happy, and total f*cking wreck.
Feet sometimes on solid ground, sometimes at the edge.
To spend your waking moments, simply killing time
Is to give up on your hopes and dreams, to give up on your...

Life for you, has been less than kind.
So take a number, stand in line.
We've all been sorry, we've all been hurt.
But how we survive, is what makes us who we are.

We live on front porches and swing life away
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave till the end
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand

Why are there so many Latina's in Illinois?
Because that's where the Chica go.

Take me away, like I overdosed on cocaine
Or take me away like a bullet from Kurt Cobain, suicide
I'm from a windy city like Do or Die

You can leave Chicago, but it will never leave you.

Village idiot? Hello, Chicago is a city, not a village, and the best city in the world!

Looking at Chicago from outside the city in daylight is one of the most depressing sights in the world.

Two-thirty, baby, won't you meet me by The Bean?
Too early, maybe later you can show me things
You know what it is, whenever I visit
Windy city, she blowin' me kisses
