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 (1)__________ that we once knew
Before we packed our bags
And (2)________ all this behind us in the dust
We had a (3)__________ that we (4)__________ (5)________ home
And a (6)________ no one could touch
Don’t hold me up now
I can stand my own ground
I don’t need (7)________ 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 will let me down, down, down!
Down!...

We are the (8)__________ and the desperate
The hungry, and the cold
We are the ones that (9)________ quiet
And always did what we were told
But we’ve been (10)________________ while you slept so calm
In the safety of your home
We’ve (11)________ (12)______________ out the nails that hold up
Everything you’ve known
Don’t hold me up now
I can (13)__________ my own ground
I don’t need (14)________ help now
You will let me down, down, down!
Don’t (15)________ me up now
I can stand my own ground
I don’t need 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 (16)__________ no longer
We’ll sing (17)______________ the day
Of the lives that we’ve lost
And the (18)__________ we’ve reclaimed

Don’t hold me up now
I can stand 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 (19)__________ my own ground
I don’t need your help now
You will let me down, down, down!
Don’t hold me up…
(I don’t (20)________ (21)________ help, I’ll stand my ground)
Don’t (22)________ me up…
(I don’t need your help)
No! No! No!
Don’t hold me up!
(I don’t (23)________ (24)________ help, I’ll stand my ground)
Don’t (25)________ me up!
(I don’t need your help, I’ll stand my ground)
Don’t let me down, down, down, down...
Down!
