Lyrics[]
Nothing suffocates you more
Than the passing of everyday human events
And isolation is the oxygen mask
You make your children breathe in to survive
But I'm not a slave to a god
That doesn't exist
I'm not a slave to a world
That doesn't give a shit
And when we were good
You just closed your eyes
So when we are bad
We'll scar your minds
Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight
You'll never grow up to be a big rock star
Celebrated victim of your fame
They'll just cut our wrists like cheap coupons
And say that death was on sale today
And when we were good
You just closed your eyes
So when we are bad
We'll scar your minds
But I'm not a slave to a god
That doesn't exist
I'm not a slave to a world
That doesn't give a shit
The death of one is a tragedy
The death of one is a tragedy
The death of one is a tragedy
The death of million is just a statistic
But I'm not a slave to a god
That doesn't exist
I'm not a slave to a world
That doesn't give a shit
But I'm not a slave to a god
That doesn't exist
I'm not a slave to a world
That doesn't give a shit
Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight
