Casualty

歌詞

They broke our backs against the pavement They ground our teeth down to the bone The hung us high and bled us dry Left to die here, defenseless and alone In the dark Like a forest fire waiting for a hint of spark Take up your arms, sharpen your knives They gave their very last chance when they gave our lives away Words betray us in the native tongues we speak When power corrupts the strong, false hope contends all weak Break the confines, brace us for the flood Raining from the heavens with the force of seven gods on us all (We were all fixated on ego) All our lives, just a drop in the ocean One more nail in the coffin, straight into the dirt Born to die, it's the final debt that we pay The stain on your hands that can't be washed away (Can't be washed away) A permanent solution, a moral absolution The guilty many, the new disorder The bloody hand leads the lamb to the slaughter I heard them laugh as their eyes rolled back Raising a glass as their hearts turned black Tyrant, how can you stand by their graves? Not all can be saved A wasted chance to set things straight A change of heart that came too late Out of sight and out of mind We are the ones you left behind Can you hear the sound? (A wasted chance to set things straight) Piercing the silence ringing out (A change of heart that came too late) As we feed the ground (Out of sight and out of mind) We are the ones you left behind All our lives, just a drop in the ocean One more nail in the coffin, straight into the dirt Born to die, it's the final debt that we pay The stain on your hands that can't be washed away We are the ones you left behind We are the ones you left behind
