Rise Against - Help Is on the Way lyrics

I have my mother's dreams I have my father's eyes You can't take that from me Just go ahead and try The crescent city sleeps While giants in the sky Preparing to unleash Let loose a mighty cry Can nobody save us Will anyone try The bayou is burning The cypress has died And all along they're saying Help is on the way They said, they said Help is on the way They said, they said One by land, two by sea Right there in front of me Help is on the way Five thousand feet below As black smoke engulfs the sky The ocean floor explodes Eleven mothers cry My bones all resonate A burning lullaby You can't take that from me Just go ahead and try She stands at the shoreline With hands in the air Her words pierce the dark night "Does anyone care?" And all along they're saying Help is on the way They said, they said Help is on they way They said, they said One by land, two by sea Right there in front of me Help is on the way Right here Right here Right here Right here Right here Right here Choking on the black gold Upon which we rely We keep axes in the attics To see cameras in the sky Help is on the way They said, they said Help is on they way They said, they said We were told just to sit tight 'Cause somebody will soon arrive Help is on the way But it never came It never came Help is on the way They said, they said Help is on they way They said, they said One by land, two by sea Right there in front of me Help is on the way On the way
