Prayer Of The Refugee by Rise Against
Warm yourself by the fire, son
And the morning will come soon
I’ll tell you stories of a better time
In a place that we once knew
Before we packed our bags
And left all this behind us in the dust
We had a place that we (1)__________ call home
And a (2)________ no one could touch
Don’t hold me up now
I can (3)__________ my own ground
I don’t (4)________ your help now
You will let me down, down, down!
Don’t (5)________ me up now
I can (6)__________ my own ground
I don’t need your (7)________ now
You (8)________ let me down, down, down!
Down!...
We are the angry and the desperate
The hungry, and the cold
We are the ones that kept quiet
And always did (9)________ we (10)________ told
But we’ve been sweating while you slept so calm
In the (11)____________ of your home
We’ve (12)________ pulling out the nails that hold up
Everything you’ve known
Don’t hold me up now
I can stand my own ground
I don’t (13)________ your help now
You will let me down, down, down!
Don’t (14)________ me up now
I can stand my own ground
I don’t (15)________ your help now
You will let me down, down, down!
So open your eyes child
Let’s be on our way
Broken windows and ashes
Are guiding the way
Keep quiet no longer
We’ll sing (16)______________ the day
Of the lives that we’ve lost
And the (17)__________ we’ve reclaimed
Don’t (18)________ me up now
I can (19)__________ my own ground
I don’t need your help now
You will let me down, down, down!
Don’t hold me up now
I can stand my own ground
I don’t need your help now
You (20)________ let me down, down, down!
Don’t hold me up…
(I don’t (21)________ your help, I’ll stand my ground)
Don’t hold me up…
(I don’t (22)________ your help)
No! No! No!
Don’t hold me up!
(I don’t need (23)________ help, I’ll stand my ground)
Don’t hold me up!

Don’t let me down, down, down, down...
Down!
