The Option And The Poison
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.
A source of inspiration
We're a lost generation
We grew from lies into this
An angry mob with raised fists
Death of thousands
Won't stop the harvest of mankind
Death of millions
Won't make us brighter in our mind
Selfishness is the option
We hope the sunrise to prove us wrong
Truth is revealed with the darkness gone
We fight amongst ourselves and alone
Still singing the same old songs
Death of thousands
Won't stop the harvest of mankind
Death of millions
Won't make us brighter in our mind
Selfishness is our poison
To keep us sane
Give us pills, give us thrills
To keep us still
Give us games, give us fame
I want to change the codes and our names
And throw away our past right into the flames
Give us pain
A source of inspiration
We're a lost generation
We grew from lies into this
An angry mob with raised fists
Death of thousands
Won't stop the harvest of mankind
Death of millions
Won't make us brighter in our mind
Selfishness is the option
Death of thousands
Won't stop the harvest of mankind
Death of millions
Won't make us brighter in our mind
Selfishness is our poison
To keep us sane
Give us pills, give us thrills
To keep us still
Give us games, give us fame
I want to change the codes and our names
And throw away our past right into the flames
Give us pain
