Lyrics:

Sound the alarm
Sing along no harm, no foul
Call out your cavalry
To drown the piper when his voice is louder
Every day is judgment day
When the self-righteous roll into town
You can't bare to look me in the face
So you'll only look when I'm face down
You're a peacekeeper if peace was a prisoner
Can't bear to let her out and free
Peace is destructive she puts out the fires
Then no one would hear you speak

Will all the yes-men stand in a single file line
While I pick their brains, pry apart their teeth?
Do you really think my reach will extend
Through their throat and make them speak?

Do I pity you? Do you want me to?
Do I pity you? Should I have to?

So I sound the alarm
HERE COME THE REBELS
Your tongue is twisted around my name
SOUND THE ALARM
Ashes to ashes and the dust
Underneath my feet will remain
The song, THE SOUNDS
Ask not for whom the bell does toll
It tolls for thee
It tolls for me.

Crack in the glass
Your house is a disaster
And small and closed and worn
From years of fruitless raging war
Put your ego out on the concrete
Before it burns someone
Put away the poisonous rants
Before they invade my lungs

Smoke and mirrors can only cover your cancer
I'll let you in on a secret you can take
Take it to the bank, to the law, to your heart
No one cares what you have to say
No one listens, no one wants to waste their day

Will all the yes man stand in a straight line
While I brush their teeth and straighten their ties?
Privilege ahoy, pretty pearly whites
A captain surrenders his ship to the tide

Do I pity you? Do you want me to?
Do I pity you? Should I have to?
I don't pity you, I don't want to
I don't pity you, I don't want to.

So I sound the alarm...

Sound the alarm
HERE COME THE REBELS
Your tongue is twisted around my name
SOUND THE ALARM
Ashes to ashes and the dust
Underneath my feet will remain
The song, THE SOUNDS
Ask not for whom the bell does toll
It tolls for thee
It tolls for me.
