Sudden Life - Rise Against

Floating in the clouds, I’m giving up the fight

A voice is calling out, I’m walking into the light

We used to race a thousand miles a day so fast

Feet, they barely even touched the ground

We used to fly to places out beyond our own little world

The fury and the sun

I saw it flicker like a television set

Bright flashes of a warning sign

Flipping channels in a world gone static

Eroding away line by the fading line

Under water for years we found

So much harder to swim than drown

The current takes us, now we’re walking into the light

Are you dying all your life?

(Walking into the light)

Broken, beat, and tired out

You want to live but don’t know how

Diagnosis: sudden life, can no one revive me now?

Feels like I’m walking into the light

Woke up floating on a wave of golden sound

Tunnel vision and a great beyond

Heart beating like a rhythm slowing

Down 'tll it’s gone, an echo of a song

Flat line and a closing bell, whisper a warm farewell

The flames are beckoning as we’re walking into the light

Are you dying all your life?(Walking into the light)

Broken, beat, and tired out

You want to live but don’t know how

Diagnosis: sudden life, can no one revive me now?

Feels like I’m walking into the light

Don’t suppose that you know the way?

Don’t suppose that you care?

I see lights up ahead and

Hear cries of angels ring in my ears

But you know that had you a choice

You would go back and do it again

We all have unfinished business to tend

So no I won’t go gentle into the good night

You can keep your candle

I’m walking away from the light

Yeah I’m walking away from the light

I’m walking away from the light

I’m walking away from the light

I’m walking away from the light

Diagnosis: sudden life (Walking into the light)

I woke up my heart racing

I’m at a loss explaining why

Are you dying all your life?

Then put your darkest days behind

Let life flash right before your eyes

And for very the first time

It feels like I’m walking away from the light
