Lyrics
Could Be Worse
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.
Cops chase criminals though the subways
The less fortunate lie on the tracks
It's no wonder they'll amount to nothing
They've been told they're just a product of chance
Skyscrapers shut the citizens in
The rest'll run them to the ground
Stripped straight of their dignity
Without making a sound
Tied to the tracks
Belt down the barricades
Cuz their lives they tether off time
Dead and buried are the proud and brave
Convenience and nobility got no reason or rhyme
All the zombies in the three piece suits
Sucking brains while in cahoots with the deadman cutting corners to survive
Steppin' on the faces of those of us still alive
War torn media fill the subways
They got the criminals tied to the tracks
It's no wonder they'll amount to nothing
They've been told they're just a product of chance
Skyscrapers shut the citizens in
The rest'll run them to the ground
Stripped straight of their dignity
Without making a sound
