Tom Morello - How Long Lyrics






How long?
How long?
How long?

With lights and sound
We drown them out
With lights and sound
We drown them out
With lights and sound
We drown them out
With lights and sound
We drown them out

From the red rope
To the masses
We are one and the same
Every billboard we are burning
A delusion up in flames
How long can we dance around
The hungry mouths
The burning streets?

How long can we drown them out
With lights and sound
While the bombs
Fall at our feet
How long can we drown them out
With lights and sound
While the bombs
Fall at our feet?

How long?
How long?
With lights and sound
We drown them out
With lights and sound
We drown them out
With lights and sound
We drown them out
With lights and sound
We drown them out

From the red rope
To the masses
We are one and the same
Every billboard we are burning
A delusion up in flames
How long can we dance around
The hungry mouths
The burning streets?

How long can we drown them out
With lights and sound
While the bombs
Fall at our feet?
While the bombs
Fall at our feet
While the bombs
Fall at our feet

How long?
While the bombs
Fall at our feet
While the bombs
Fall at our feet
While the bombs
Fall at our feet

  5. G.... ....

    I’m here because of Washington Capitals! Go CAPS!!!

  6. G.... F....

  8. G.... C....

    Total music!

  9. v.... ....

    Awesome stuff!!!!

  10. j.... ....

    This whole album is horrible. Tom should of never made this album his audioslave and rage against the machine and prophet of rage is the type of music he needs to stick with

    j.... ....

    Maybe you should try and keep an open mind

  11. E.... ....

    I heard this on lithium while i was at work and my productivity increased for a whole 4 minutes lol.
    Unique beat and vocals! Great song

    E.... ....

    I just searched this out on YouTube because I heard the tail end of it on lithium. 👍👍

  12. S.... O....

    Tim is amazing!! I would love to see this performed lived <3

    S.... O....

    Saw Tom play this while he was supporting Muse. Was pretty cool, although Tim wasn't there in person of course. They had Tim on the screen though.

  13. H.... L....

    this is pretty fucking awesome

  14. E.... S....

    Awesomeness!!?

  15. N.... Z....

    Damn this is some 🌽-E cornball stuff

  16. T.... K....

    0:38 Seni, beni, bizi ancak ölüm ayırır yazıyor ahash :? bayrak asıldı!

  17. R.... L....

    #Yanggang - to think there's a 2020 Democratic Presidential Andrew Yang candidate that both is for eliminating poverty via 1k guaranteed income/month as well as regulating the more addictive properties of social media. This should be his theme song...

    R.... L....

    Yang is Diet Progressive. He’s shown support for a few ideals, but taken the easy centrist side on too many more.

    R.... L....

    @Jacob Sample yeah his policies vary greatly and I've heard him argued as centrist and far left relative to the Dem field depending on perspective but "progressive for the sake of being progressive" he definately is not. He's the ultimate policy wonk.

  18. G.... P....

    Tim's vocals are amazing!

  19. C.... B....

    Anthem right here!

  20. H.... E....

    This is the kind of song I really love listening to on my way to work every morning. It's worth paying for this.

  21. M.... V....

    Guitar tab?

  22. R.... ....

    I go back listening to "No Shelter". Damn.

  23. J.... ....

    Underrated song

  24. S.... ....

    I find it amusing that everyone who dislikes this new music is just some white boy who never understood the point of RATM. It's sad that meatheads ended up becoming the core of the alt right.

  25. u.... ....

    But Song is not fit his voice in this one

  26. R.... E....

    pretty neat collab

  27. J.... N....

    Miss this Aoki
    Comeback Steveeeeeee !

  28. A.... ....

    i never thought i would hear tim's voice in a song like that and it makes me laugh at some points but at the same time it's fucking great lmao

  29. k.... ....

    Next do a pitbull collab

  30. D.... D....

    wow tom morello is really sodomizing the living shit out of poor music with this album. fucking hideus. stop it!

  31. J.... N....

    This is DIRE.

  32. D.... D....

    musica de drogado. cade o bom velho som da guitarraaaa porra

  33. s.... s....

    horrible

  34. D.... ....

    am i the only one thats not impressed? i usually try to keep my comments as unbiased as possible... but what the hell happened?? i get the message, and yeah, tim's scream was dope... but tom must be bored as fuck and tim wrote one chorus.............................?

    D.... ....

    tears in my eyes for this atrocity.... for fans and creators both...

  35. J.... I....

    perfect

  36. J.... V....

    I think this is how Korn wanted "The Path of Totality" to sound like. Great song, good album.

    J.... V....

    TPOT is a great album tho

  37. A.... J....

    Guau no sabía que tom tenia un canal de youtube que bueno que porfin en las recomendaciones aparece algo bueno

  38. Q.... P....

    Superb! \m/

  39. s.... m....

    rise against😍

  40. A.... i....

    I'd be curious to see what Tom and Atari Teenage Riot could create.

  41. P.... C....

    GET this track more views. This is amazing seeing three artists I love come together. Never expected this. Including it in a few mixes. Great new music in the main steam FINALLY

  42. L.... F....

    What an amazing song

  43. J.... M....

    Brutal! 🤘🤘🤘

  44. M.... M....

    Intro reminds me of Mindless Self Indulgence

  45. S.... A....

    Reminds some NIN album. Except bout lyrics. Trent lyrics are intimistic, confessional. These are social and politically engaged in a great way: "how long can we drown them out wth lights and sound while the bombs fall at our feet?"

  46. L.... L....

    Tom is working together with my favorite artists, lately. .-.

  47. t.... c....

    EDM really ain’t my cup of tea, but Tim made this amazing, that man is my hero

  48. E.... E....

    @0:38 On the wall, "You and Me, only death can tear us apart"

  49. S.... ....

    i love it

  50. T.... s....

    What is this rave shit Tom get back together with the rest of old band mates this singer sucks.

  51. M.... M....

    Now thats something i'd rise against

    M.... M....

    hahhaha

  52. J.... V....

    Umm .... aghh this sounds like he doesn't know much about electronic music picks the popular artists to work with and adds the same guitar on everything he does. Im sorry everyone but my instinctual reaction is very underwhelming and most of the songs I have heard so far are also kinda of embarrassing. Also something I really notice with a lot of Artists that become famous and well known they just hang with other famous and well known people and after a while really cant relate with the underground but there clueless and so are a lot of the people because everyone is hyped that there are a lot of big names attached to a project. Underground is a really bad name cause its has nothing to do with underground which is a very dangerous place for artists and this has absolutely no sense of danger it feels so the opposite. To end my little critique I also have to say there is nothing new here either .. I myself and other bands in the world since the 90's have been messing about with electronics and guitar based music for a long time and could lay down a list of names doing this. Hendrix is amazing always will be! but I do not feel his spirit in this at all its more like a modern day clusterF****. Anyways peace to you all I am not a hater I am just a man who loves music and when I see to much hype I like to investigate and see if its true. I come from the school of John Peel where music is way beyond the facade of fame and Hollywood and it will never have an influence on me and that allows you to listen to everything honestly without caring who is making it. I like Tom as a guitar player but this project is the most hyped thing in recent history.

    J.... V....

    It's called irrelevancy.

  53. l.... ....

    Tom Morello, long my absolute favorite guitarist on the planet, thank you for pushing the unthinking majority of humans closer to awareness, advocating social changes for the betterment of the human condition, and doing so with art. Your output here will not be in vain. I see it. I feel it. I won't back down. As long as mankind is able to ignore these problems, no one will ever try to solve them.

    l.... ....

    literataliberata Feel ya man. Tom inspired me to pick up a guitar 18 years ago, pushed me to be a better person and helped open my eyes to what is really going on in this world. A true beacon of positive change and justice.

  54. D.... S....

    Rise against the morello

  55. E.... C....

    Tim has the voice of rage...

  56. L.... B....

    Tim is my guy.

  57. G.... o....

    I love the heavy lyrics playing against what is typically party/dance music. The juxtaposition creates great depth. Fantastic!

  58. P.... f....

    Wtf is this commercial rubbish?

  59. T.... ....

    So then rise against the machine is legit? Lmao!

    T.... ....

    Actually, This is the real Rise Against the Machine = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_fv9P6swnA

    T.... ....

    I think you are confusing "Rise Against" with "Rage against the machine"

    T.... ....

    Johnny Moore haha johnny i was making a joke

    T.... ....

    They actually preformed this live over the weekend

    T.... ....

    @Johnny Moore .....that's the joke.gif

  60. K.... V....

    I fucking love this song, but I keep hearing "every Bilbo"

  61. N.... H....

    Not even complaining, superb !!!

  62. t.... n....

    great! i getting into this album slowly. love Tom

  63. i.... j....

    Getting Blue Stahli vibes off of this.. Love it!

  64. R.... B....

    Voice is good but the rest is bullshit

  65. P.... L....

    This fucking pumps! I'd be sure to get a speeding fine driving to this - wish it was longer! Repeat...

  66. T.... F....

    I'm Here For And Because Of Tim

    #RiseAgainst25/8

  67. T.... B....

    definitely not my style, but It aint bad. I could see myself dropping a listen once in a while

    T.... B....

    oh hello there, Decent Way Of Voicing A Not-Fully-Favorable Opinion, you should come out more often

  68. J.... G....

    RISE AGAINST LOVE YOU TIMM

  69. T.... ....

    i feel like this should be in watch dogs 3

  70. S.... ....

    I have yet to find a single song i dont like when theres Tim involved ♡

  71. L.... M....

    💥💥💥

  72. b.... o....

    trash music

    b.... o....

    ur trash

  73. p.... f....

    I WANNA THANK NOT ONLY GOD BUT ALSO JESUS

  74. N.... A....

    Uff, esta cool. Tom Morello, eres el mejor, the best.

  75. M.... R....

    300 likes?

  76. D.... ....

    I love EDM as much as rock, but when it's Tom Morello's album, I can't help expecting less mixing more guitaring

    D.... ....

    Then you don't know Tom.

  77. D.... ....

    OMG! The writing on the wall at 0:37 is in Turkish and it says "Only DEATH can separate you me us"

    D.... ....

    Derya incredible

  78. D.... P....

    Liked the intro and Tim's vocals are there but Nah....

  79. D.... C....

    This is fantastic! Love Toms riffs! The production on this track is Epic!

  80. G.... R....

    My ears just had an orgasm. I am fucking in love.

  81. C.... U....

    the guitars bailed on this song

  82. C.... ....

    How original Tom.....more whammy??

  83. C.... B....

    🔥🔥🔥🔥

  84. J.... P....

    I honestly don’t get it.

    J.... P....

    I figure they're trying to get their political call-to-action to reach the folks who grind out the week for chump change and dance away their troubles on the weekends. I've seen kids grow up from being strictly rock fans to living that life. Not all activists are headbangers and moshers, and the folks who fought during the Civil Rights era in the US were far from it.

  85. m.... m....

    You see this shit? This is fucking music unity right here. The fans the sound..... unreal album

  86. A.... J....

    #RiseAgainstForever

  87. R.... A....

    Hey everyone, if you dig Tom Morello, you can check out my Rock Album Review of "The Atlas Underground" here - https://youtu.be/OzU_sG-lqmw, cheers!

  88. N.... ....

    This drop drops so fucking hard

    N.... ....

    And the chorus is super catchy. I'm not even into this kind of music, but it seems like if Tim is involved, I can't help but be a fanboy about it...

  89. J.... K....

    Somehow I never thought I’d see the guitarist from Audioslave, the lead vocalist of Rise Against, and Steve Aoki in one song. But honestly I’m not even complaining.

    J.... K....

    Temple Slug epic analogy 💯🏆

    J.... K....

    @Temple Slug You lost the internet--and any credibility you might have had--with that Velvet Underground remark.

    J.... K....

    @Temple Slug And that's how you prove your point. Well played

    J.... K....

    @Scott Morris you missed my point.. This guy said tom morello og audioslave instead of RATM.. So i said you probably know slash from Velvet revolver instead if GNR

    J.... K....

    *rage against the machine

  90. E.... ....

    thumb up for rise against!

    E.... ....

    HELL YES, Rage and rise against are two of the best. This track makes me feel so much!

  91. R.... ....

    My gosh Tim's scream is beautiful

    R.... ....

    I saw Rise Against live in Halifax and he is amazing live.

    R.... ....

    I'm entirely sure I even like the song but I like Tim's vocals and scream enough to listen to it. Especially that tasty scream.

  92. A.... S....

    Fucking incredible. Tim's vocals make this track insane

  93. A.... F....

    I LOVE THIS SONG !!!

  94. C.... ....

    SOUNDTRACK TO WORK

  95. G.... ....

    This is honestly Steve Aoki's best track in YEARS. Total anthem, missed this 2010-era electro house style

    G.... ....

    If you want more electro house, check Kannibalen Records. Especially BTSM Numbers, Break, Religion ft LektriQue

  96. t.... 4....

    93' I lost my shoe at a rage concert. I feel alot of the same energy here. This album caught me off guard. It's kinda his version of santana supernatural album where newbies and elders give homage to a guitar legend

  97. E.... N....

    Wee sugoi

  98. r.... ....

    Well...this was something.
