Brave New World
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.
One day you'll be savage
One day you'll get next
One day you'll untie the lies inside
And get some respect
One day you'll be captain
All hands on the deck
But now the crowd is loud and
Wanting to grab you by the neck
The future's unwritten
Good thing we can't read
You cutting across, thinking you're boss
Watching 'em bleed
You getting so empty
With all that you need
Don't let the animals out and don't ever doubt
They're ready to feed
Welcome to the brave new world
The same as the old scared world
Welcome to the brave new world
The same as the old scared world
You bank on the system
The system ain't real
Roll of the dice now just for a slice yeah man
Now fuck how you feel
Now this is a warning
Not only a test
Run for your life, not just for the light
And spray the spray for the pests
The future's unwritten
Good thing we can't read
You cutting across, thinking you're boss
Watching 'em bleed
You getting so empty
With all that you need
Don't let the animals out and don't ever doubt
They're ready to feed
Welcome to the brave new world
The same as the old scared world
The more we change, the more we stay the same
Looking for someone new to blame
Everything they said is coming true
Science fiction became science truth
The leaders of the pack will turn around
Digging through the holes of lost and found
You thinking about it but don't ever shout it
Now wishing that you were the threat
The future's a scene but that doesn't mean
That you get to live in it yet
Learn from the past but that never lasts
'Cause fools they rerun it all
Trying to run gun setting to stun
But they ain't ready to crawl
Welcome to the brave new world
The same as the old scared world
The more we change, the more we stay the same
Looking for someone new to blame
