Lyrics Reactor - Billy Talent

In the cold dead air of a Saturday night
There's a moonlit sky but it don't feel right
The warning signs lit a spark inside
And you can't let it go
In a flash we see with a primitive eye
That the elephant pacing the room has died
Whispered thoughts turn to wasted words
And everybody knows

You were caught in the middle of a knife fight long ago
Counting scars from the battle in your mind, you're not alone

No you can't push us back without a fight no more
No you can't keep us running away, keep us running
No you can't see the thunder in a lightning storm
No you can't see what's coming your way, see what's coming

Reactor set to overload
And the dam on the river's ready to explode

In a smoke filled air of a Saturday night
There's a moonlit sky but it don't feel right
Now you walk these streets as a raging fire burns out of control
As the sirens blare all the people escape
An invisible thread's hanging in the air
Now you watch your step with an anxious breath
It's nightmares taking hold

You were caught in the middle of a knife fight long ago
Every day's new reality's a minefield for the soul
So immune to the damage, every night you take it home
Counting scars from the battle in your mind, you're not alone

No you can't push us back without a fight no more
No you can't keep us running away, keep us running
No you can't see the thunder in a lightning storm
No you can't see what's coming your way, see what's coming

Reactor set to overload
And the dam of the river's gonna blow 'cause

I can't breathe, I can't breathe
In an atmosphere catalyzed by fear
Our sons and daughters scream
I can't breathe, I can't breathe
And we can't stand still while they aim to kill
Our sons and daughters dreams

No you can't push us back without a fight no more
No you can't keep us running away, keep us running
No you can't see the thunder in a lightning storm
No you can't see what's coming your way, see what's coming

Reactor set to overload
And the dam of the river's ready to explode
Reactor set to overthrow
'Cause the dam on the river's ready to explode
