Killswitch Engage - Alone I Stand Lyrics

A day of great tribulation is upon us
A time of deception conflict and unrest
I will not cower in fear and submission
I will hold my ground and resist

It all starts in the mind
From the beginning of days to the last and final end
Uncertainty bleeds from within
Open wounds stitched with precision
Mind and body conditioned to obey
They call us sons and daughters
Only sheep led to the slaughter

So many times, so many lies
I am disconnected from a system I've rejected, yeah
No allegiance
Defiant I withstand

This resistance
I reject what you demand
And alone I stand

Rank, file and number
We are gears in the machine
Unseen to the eye
The shackles are on the inside

Illusion of security
Rejection of this supremacy
Confusion led us to submission
Disconnection from a system I've rejected

No allegiance
Defiant I withstand

This resistance
I reject what you demand
And alone I stand

There is great tribulation upon us all
Deception, conflict and unrest, upon us all (upon us all)
I will hold my ground
I will, I will resist, yeah

Now I reject (I reject)
I reject what you demand (what you demand)
And alone I stand
