Song lyrics
The day i learn to fly, i'm never coming down
On perfect wings i'll rise through the layers of the clouds

And from there i see the neon grids of cities
Where six million people that keep their fires lit

And i threw a party in my name
But the hours crawled by and no one came
So i bowed my head and i prayed for wings
to take me from this place...from you

I see myself inside, you dream the dreams that i do
You're still searching for these answers, they're not inside your wrist

And from there i see the neon grids of cities
Where six million people that can keep their fires lit

And i threw a party in my name
But the hours crawled by and no one came
So i bowed my head and i prayed for wings 
to take me from this place...from you

And i close my eyes as the curtains draw
I thought i heard your voice but i thought wrong
'cause you're not there anymore
no you're not there anymore

And so i lift my chin and the show goes on
the sky is listening, the stars all sing along
but you're not there anymore
and i just can't care anymore

Rise against is awesome, so is the song Heaven Knows because I think a lot of people can relate to it in a lot of ways. Hey, I'm Chris, I'll be here all week!

A: anyone who uses "lol" probably doesnt understand the lyrics on an artistic level

B: anyone who doesnt see the video as a compleatly appropriate extention of the song and it's original artistic content sould probably stick to listening to Blink 182

C: if you enjoy Rise Against for their lyrical content try listening to Bad Religon and NOFX

i believe that the female in question is dead. He talks about wanting to get away from her, yet she is not there. this is indicitive of her memory is tourturing also his wings and mention of heaven seems as though he is imagining himself dead and question the nature of death and particularly questioning her death.

Rise Against are great, Heaven knows is their second best song. Their best is by far 'Like The Angel' simply brilliant.

I like both bad religion and Nofx... but my opinion is that Rise Against have the best lyrical content... all of the lyrics Ive heard are related to something or someone I know.. they are deep and they touch many topics.... This one for instance.... "you're still searching for these answers, they're not inside your wrist"..... people who cut to drown their pain... Thats not a difficult line..... anyway they are awsome
