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 (1)____________ 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 (2)__________ call home
And a life no one could touch
Don’t hold me up now
I can stand my own ground
I don’t need (3)________ (4)________ now
You (5)________ 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 (6)________ 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 (7)____________ did what we were told
But we’ve (8)________ (9)________________ while you slept so calm
In the safety of your home
We’ve been 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 (10)________ (11)________ help now
You (12)________ let me down, down, down!
Don’t hold me up now
I can stand my own ground
I don’t need your (13)________ 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 (14)__________ no longer
We’ll sing through the day
Of the (15)__________ that we’ve lost
And the lives we’ve reclaimed

Don’t hold me up now
I can stand my own ground
I don’t need (16)________ help now
You will let me down, down, down!
Don’t (17)________ me up now
I can (18)__________ my own ground
I don’t need (19)________ 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 need your help)
No! No! No!
Don’t (22)________ me up!
(I don’t need (23)________ help, I’ll stand my ground)
Don’t hold me up!
(I don’t need your help, I’ll stand my ground)
Don’t let me down, down, down, down...
Down!
