Born To Die

born to die
and you get
to sit and watch your TV set
believe the lies
before your eyes
credit cards and apple pies
50 stars to blind your eyes
13 stripes to hypnotize
free thought is gone
you'll never see you're just a pawn

you'll die tomorrow
but today your empty dreams just fade away
evaporate
dissolve to hate
while you survive and wait until a lifeless fate
your stupid lives just piddle on
you slave for others, and then your gone
i just can't escape the lying
moment we are born were dying
such an ugly sight

we have no rights
we have no future
no reasons why
we're born to die

your dumb self can't appreciate
the freedom in my thought
the weak sense of autonomy
when I'm flipping in my squat
that empty void was never filled
but the dreams of others you helped kill
you'll justify, will linger on
but dontcha know that dreams all die the day you're born

we have no God
there's only ignorant bliss
no reasons why
we're born to die

we have no rights
we have no future
no reasons why
we are born to die
just born to die

gone to bed
God is dead
lies and truth are in my head
your history, society, economy
it isn't me

it's all on you, reality
it's whatcha do
it's whatcha make
the truth and lies
the freedom dies
the mind it numbs
the spirit breaks

all our rights
it kills our future
our reasons why
we are born to die (just born to die)
