[Verse] We break apart and take it hard When it's not as it seems We pull the strings that make the seams Of the American Dream The system fails and leaves a trail Of the bodies we meet All that's left of me Just the bones of the beast [Chorus] 'Cause the only thing I've ever known Is to burn it all down When the storm comes I'll be standing on the battleground You think you know rage? You've never met her My friend But she knows you And I know you [Verse 2] From birth to death We're short of breath From our toil and tears We sow our seed and bleed and breed Our enemies here Our flesh and blood will feed the flood Of the sorrow we sow This land is not my home So burn it down I go [Chorus] 'Cause the only thing I've ever known Is to burn it all down When the storm comes I'll be standing on the battleground You think you know rage? You've never met her My friend But she knows you And I know you [Bridge] And my body and my soul They're two things I do not own I was a stranger in my home I was the flame I was the flame [Chorus] The only thing I've ever known Is to burn it all down When the storm comes I'll be standing on the battleground You think you know rage? You've never met her My friend But she knows you And I know you
