"Talking To Ourselves is about watching yourself and the people around you fall into complacency. Despite your best efforts to get people’s attention, it feels like no one is listening. Sometimes we feel the urge to do something crazy, to disturb the peace, to jostle the world around us awake. Our actions might be seen as out of the ordinary, but they are acts of desperation when all else failed." - Rise Against

"Talking To Ourselves" - LYRICS:
We’re waiting for something to happen

But nothing is snapping us out of this trance

Our eyelids are heavy and soon we’re all ready
To obey every single command
I feel lost
No map in front of me
I don’t know which way is up
Wishing we could just hit pause
Just enough to breathe

(Why can’t I shake you awake from this dream?)
I never wanted to disturb the peace
But it feels like no one’s listening
Are we talking to ourselves
Are we just talking to ourselves?

So good at speaking out of turn
And talking back, I have some nerve
If I said this all to your face
Forgive me
Sometimes I forget my place

So what’s it going to be
Will you dig in or give up
Lean in or just get lost?
Drift away from here
This demands your attention
Hear me when I say

I never wanted to disturb the peace
But it feels like no one’s listening
Are we talking to ourselves
Are we just talking to ourselves?

What are we trying to say

Tell me what it would take to pry open their eyes
I would wade in the water I’ll stand in the fire
I am not afraid

I would break down the door if you give me the sign
For the chance to be yours I would lay down my life
I am not afraid

I swear I never wanted to disturb the peace
But it feels like no one’s listening
Are we talking to ourselves?

Are we just talking to ourselves?
