lyrics

Pass a stick, I'll spark up a light.
Anaemic youth, too numb to fight.
Television put me at ease.
We're all gonna die of the same disease.

Drag me down and tear out my soul.
Drill your deserts and I.V. me oil.
Send your youth to die in the sands.
I'll kill myself slowly with the strike in my hand.

Filled with deceit yet feeling so empty.
They'll call us crazy, a beautiful tragedy.
Fitfully sleeping beneath poisoned skies.
We're all just waiting for our lives to go by.

Drag me down and tear out my soul.
Drill your deserts and I.V. me oil.
Send your youth to die in the sands.
I'll kill myself slowly with the strike in my hand.

Born In chains so set me aflame.
Drain my blood and watch the pain.
I'd rather die and feel alive
than sit here waiting for my life to go by.

Pass a stick, I'll spark up a light.
Too numb to feel, too tired to fight.
Nothing resides behind these glazed eyes.
We're all just waiting for our lives to go by.
