The Big Pink - Rage Lyrics

The Big Pink Lyrics

"Rage"

I take, I take what I've been given and I paint it gold
I give what I can't hold
The kids
They take what they've been given far as they have know
They change all the rules their sold

And as the time goes by
We'll consolidate those old lies
Time will always be on our side
Even when the last laugh dies

So rage
Against the day
You know there is no wasted time
I know I'm not wasting mine
So rage
Against the day
You know there is no wasted time
I know I'm not wasting mine

Back and forth and back again we
Learn to write the right side of history
Loosen up the noose they give me

Fuck the fame based on some pretence
We just want some heat and substance
Fuck off games that narrow your lane

And as the time goes by
We consolidate those old lies
Time will always be on our side
Even when the last laugh dies

So rage
Against the day
You know there is no wasted time
I know I'm not wasting mine
So rage
Against the day
You know there is no wasted time
I know I'm not wasting mine

Learn to run, don't crawl
Each stone will roll
All direction home
Dancing round that poll
Waging war
The rains will fall

So rage
Against the day
You know there is no wasted time
I know I'm not wasting mine
So rage
Against the day
You know there is no wasted time
I know I'm not wasting mine
