Rage Lyrics by The Jerks

The Jerks

1997

[Verse 1]
Children begging in the streets at night
Knocking on cars 'til the morning light
People standing in line for a kilo of rice
Welcome to the dark ages, the era of lies
[Verse 2]
Dreams of progress, of visions gone mad
Mendiola's still drenched with innocent blood
Demolition men rumbles through smokey mountain homes
Darkness indeed, justice dressed in gloom
[Chorus]
But I'll go not gently into the night
Rage against the dying of the light
Sing a song about this terrible sight
Rage until the lightning strikes
Go not gently, go not gently, go not gently
And rage with me
Go not gently, go not gently, go not gently
And rage with me
[Verse 3]
And the names and faces of the tyrants change
But poverty, pain, and murder remains
And the voices of truth are locked up in chains
Darkness remains, freedom in flames
[Chorus]
But I'll go not gently into the night
Rage against the dying of the light
Sing a song about this terrible sight
Rage until the lightning strikes
Go not gently, go not gently, go not gently
And rage with me
Go not gently, go not gently, go not gently
And rage with me
Go not gently into the night
Rage against the dying of the light
Sing a song about this terrible sight
Rage until the lightning strikes
Go not gently, go not gently, go not gently
And rage with me
Go not gently, go not gently, go not gently
And rage with me
[Outro]
Rage with me
Come on, baby, rage with me
Rage with me
Rage with me
Come on, baby, rage with me
Ah! Oh, oh
