Genocide
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Our lives run different ways
Through the rain I see you in the sun
Our star shines anyway
If you wish upon it we are one
Chorus:
Dog eat dog
Every day
On our fellow man we prey
Dog eat dog
To get by
Hope you like my genocide
I find it such a shame
Through the pain I see things as they are
We're served up on a plate
The pedestal is high enough to fall
And if in time
We can see the errors of our ways
Would anyone change it anyhow
Our time is up
Chorus:
Dog eat dog
Every day
On our fellow man we prey
Dog eat dog
To get by
Hope you like my genocide
I bet you'd only run
If you saw what goes inside our own
I bet you'd lead the way
If it were up to you to decide
But it's not
