[Verse 1: Shane Told] Born into a cage that leads Directly to the slaughter Ritual sacrifice at the altar of The altar of the fucking dollar The machine needs blood The show must go on Can't have the upper class If there's no one underneath them Sawing through the top rungs before selling you A chance to climb the corporate ladder
[Verse 2: Shane Told] At the base of the ivory tower The bodies pile up Lured you with a future but it won't exist Shame you for a failure that thеy won't admit Somebody has to die as a warning to the rеst Shut up and get in line, take what you can get
[Verse 3: Paul Marc Rousseau] Oh lord I wish that I could quit But the idol in the middle Tends to rule with a fist I'm not blind But my hands are tied I'll tint my lenses rose I'm handing people hope They'd rather make ends meet Than meet their maker with a rope, right? I'm not Satan, just a friend So I might pay my penance When I get my dividend
[Outro: Shane Told] Somebody has to die Somebody has to die Somebody has to die Somebody has to die Somebody has to die Die
[Part II: Mary]
[Verse: Shane Told] I say I'm okay but I've got a ways to go Both ends of the candle burn the rope So talk to me, talk to me, I've got it bad Forgot what I needed, lost what I had Mary, I feel the devil in this room tonight I'm fading, I'm a sinner and I can't stop now Unless I hold my breath long enough to see God Somebody wake me up 'Cause I'd rather be anywhere else And if I don't come back You could be my epitaph I could live in painted glass Just like you (Just like you)Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
