Prayer Of The Refugee lyrics

Songwriters: Barnes, Brandon; Chasse, Christopher; Mcilrath, Timothy; Principe, Joseph Daniel

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 could 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 your help now,
You won't 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 won't 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 what we were told.

But we've been sweating 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 need your help now,
You won't 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 won't 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 through the day,
Of the lives 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 your help now,
You won't 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 won't let me down, down, down!

Don't hold me up...
(I don't need your help, I'll stand my ground)
Don't hold me up...
(I don't need your help)
No! No! No!
Don't hold me up!
(I don't need your 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!

from my previous post, I realized it said you WON'T let me down...although that doesn't really make sense because he was scolding this "you" one line before, so...

clarifications please?

I thought since it was a PRAYER of the refugee, the bursting part about "don't hold me up now, I don't need your help now" was a prayer to god, telling god that you made me a refugee, you brought this onto me, don't continue to "help" me, you will let me down, down, down, down...

Yeah, thats my intepretation ^^

DIS SAAWNG COULNT GET ANY BEETTER. daz cuz its gotta serene hook, which abruptly merges into some sorta punk rock genre, that totally bumps it up to a whole nutha level; IF U CANT BEAT EM, JOIN EM

Just watching the vid explains the message behind this song. He is talking about how lots of items branded "Made in the US" is actually made in a third-world country by a poor class of people. The vid is shows a lot of emotion and anger towards the US Gov't and how they know what's up but pretend to be blindfolded from the truth.
