Nothing suffocates you more than
The passing of everyday human events
Isolation is the oxygen mask you make
Your Children breath into survive
But I’m not slave to a god
That doesn’t exist
I’m not a slave to a world
That doesn’t give a shit
And when we were good
You just closed your eyes
So when we are bad
We’ll scar your minds
Fight, fight, fight, fight …
You’ll never grow up to be a big-rock-star
celebrated-victim-of-your-fame
They’lljust cut our wrist like
Cheap coupons and say that death
Was on sale today
And when we were good
You just closed your eyes
So when we are bad
We’ll scar your minds
But I’m not slave to a god
That doesn’t exist
I’m not a slave to a world
That doesn’t give a shit
The death of one is a tradegy
But the death of millions is just a statistic But I’m not slave to a god
That doesn’t exist
I’m not a slave to a world
That doesn’t give a shit
Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight.
