Rise Against was last night at the Dome Theater in Niagara Falls. We missed Billy Talent and Circa Suvive are too emo/whiny for me. Their lights were cool, but that's about it. Thursday played a good set, they had kick ass lights too. Rise Against played most new songs, but a good amount of older stuff too. There were a lot of really young kids there with their parents. A whole lot. And beer was expensive. After I drove back to Buffalo and went over to Tom's house and played beer pong with dressed up people (from Semi-Formal). I'm a little sad I didn't go to semi-formal. Oh well, I'm over it. I'm gonna go to senior ball so it's all good.
Rise Against played "The Good Left Undone" and I have posted this before (not sure if in here, but I know in my other blog) but here it is. It was really good live.
In fields where nothing grew but weeds,
I found a flower at my feet,
Bending there in my direction,
I wrapped a hand around its stem,
I pulled until the roots gave in,
Finding now what I’ve been missing,
But I know…
So I tell myself, I tell myself it’s wrong.
There’s a point we pass from which we can’t return.
I felt the cold rain of the coming storm.
All because of you,
I haven’t slept in so long.
When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean,
Longing for the shore where I can let my head down,
I’ll follow your voice,
All you have to do is shout it out.
Inside my hands these petals browned,
Dried up, fallen to the ground
But it was already too late now.
I pushed my fingers through the earth,
Returned this flower to the dirt,
So it can live.
I walked away now.
But I know…
Not a day goes by that I don’t feel it’s burn.
There’s a point we pass from which we can’t return.
I felt the cold rain of the coming storm.
All because of you,
I haven’t slept in so long,
When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean,
Longing for the shore where I can let my head down,
I’ll follow your voice,
All you have to do is shout it out.
All because of you…
All because of you…
All because of you,
I haven’t slept in so long.
When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean,
Longing for the shore where I can let my head down,
Inside these arms of yours.
All because of you,
I believe in angels.
Not the kind with wings,
No, not the kind with halos,
The kind that bring you home,
When home becomes a strange place.
I’ll follow your voice,
All you have to do is shout it out.
