Hydra

I watched a man die in the cold

He slept in the street

We left him there with nothing to eat

I watched a man burn in the coals

Shoveling shit into a furnace, trading a check for his soul

The city is a fucking prison

Force fed failure, eat what you're given

The ivory tower, the higher power

I swear their laughing as we claw at the scraps

We were the lions now we bow to the hydra

Cause when you cut off the head, fucking two grow back

See them at their worst

Another day goes by

Everything I love dies

In the passenger side of the hearse

Lower the bar

It's pathetic to think

I knew their souls would sink

But I never knew how far

Repetition is only failure

Repetition is only failure

Repetition is only failure

Repetition is only failure

The cycle repeats

A March towards defeat

The wretched accept it, a bleak tomorrow

The fathers of greed sow the seeds for sons of sorrow

I watched a man die in the cold

He slept in the street

We left him there with nothing to eat

I watched a man burn in the coals

Shoveling shit into a furnace, trading a check for his soul

The city is a fucking prison

Force fed failure, eat what you're given

The ivory tower, the higher power

I swear they're laughing as we claw at the scraps

We were lions now we bow to the hydra

Cause when you cut off the head fucking two grow back

I watched a man die in the cold

I watch a man burn in the coals
