Feel[Am]ing like I'm t[A5]rapped,[Am]
[Eb]try [G#5]ing to[Am] run, can't get [A5]away
[Am]Feel[A5]ing l[Am]ike I'm d[A5]amned[Eb]
[Bb5]to live a l[D5]ie[G#5][A5][Am]
[G#5]Feel i[Am]ng all t[A5]hese feeli[Bb5]ng s,[Am]
[Eb]
[G#5]bracing [A5]for [Am]another blow[A5][Am]
[A5]Cause [Am]life's a bitch un[A5]til t[Bb5]he day
[Am]we d[D5]ie[G#5][A5][Am][A5][D5][C5]
[G#5]Feel i[Am]ngs are something y[A5]ou
[G#5]can 't[A5] take away
[Am]You can moni[G5]tor al[A5]l[Am]
that [A5]I do [D5]and I say
[G#5]But you'll never [A5]see wh[Am]at lies b[G#5]ey
[A5]ond [Am]my sk[G5]ull[A5][Am][D5]
[G5]You [G#5]can treat [Am]me like a refuge[G#5]e
[Am]An ali e[G5]n to[Am] my coun[D5]try
[G#5]When y[Am]ou're the ones w[A5]ho d[G#5]on't be
[Am]long at [G5]all[A5][Am][A5][D5][G5]
[G#5]Eat al[Am]l th[Bb]at they sa[Bb5]y[Am]
[A5]All [Eb]that w[D5]e se[Am]e
Nev[Bb]er to[Am] be
Free [Bb5]liber [Bb]ties [Bb5]lost,[Am]
[A5]bath[Eb]ed in the wake[Am] of
communal [Bb5]de cay[F5][G5][Am]
[E]We [Am]the people pay[A5][Eb]
[Bb5]Those [G5]of u[Am]s who will be tra[Eb]y[A5]
[D5]Whil[Am]e the people wallow
in de[G5]cay[Am][E]
[Eb]The [G5]re ci[Am]pe for an[A5] arch[Eb]y[Am]
[G5]A battle hym[A5] n f[Am]or you a[A5]nd me[Bb5]
[Bb]The [Eb]mixin[Am]g pot begins to[A5][Am]
churn [G5]an d burn hu[Am]manity[E][Eb]
[C5]Reas[Am]on is something you
[G#5]re fuse to [A5]learn[Am]
While [G5]squalor [Am]whips out
with the [D5]extended ter[G#5]m
And you're [Am]banning your life
with [A5]the b[G#5]lood of [A5]another
[Am]man's drea[G5]m s[A5]
[Am]We t[D5]he hu[G#5]mans[Am]
step[G#5]ping s[A5]tone [Am]s
[G5]Pray [A5]for c[Am]hange until [D5]we're both
[G#5]Have h[Am]ad enough of f[G#5]oe dip[Am]
[G5]lomacy[Am][A5][Eb]
[G#5]Life w[Am]ast [Bb5]ing aw[Bb]ay
[Am]Wast[Eb]ing your[D5] voice[Am]
Chain[Bb]ing y[Am]our choice
All [Bb]their mercies [Am]lost
[A5]Pav [Eb]ing t[D5]he wa[Am]y co[Bb]mmunal decay
[Am]In an incor of o[Eb]pportunistic greed
[C]The [Am]lambs led to the slaughter
We [Eb]the lambs on which they feed
Without [Am]us they'd be nothing
[Eb]Without them we'd be freed
[Eb5]From i[C]dea[Am]listic scruples
And [Eb]oppressive [Am]calumny[A5][Am]
[A5][Am][Eb][D5][Am][Eb]
[Am][Eb]
[D5]Those [A5]in contr[Am]ol have
lost con[A5]trol of people,
lost their pay, that's all,
and [G#5]getting [A5]by is impo[Am]ssible,
we all share [A5]this de[Am]cay
A crowded closet, heavy down,
yet [A5]no one seems to be around,
[E]with Cyr[G#5]us cre[A5]eping[Am] in our keys,
he'll find another [A5]day
The [Am]head of thieves is now
the head that [A5]bleeds the country [G#5]dry
The [G#5]men in suits, the me[A5]n in bla[Am]ck,
they share the same disguise
Till we ask no questions,
they bring the heaven [G#5]out
We [G#5]never [A5]get the a[Am]nswers
and our bodies never found
[Am][G#5][Eb][Am]
Our bodies never [Eb]found[Am]
[Eb][Am][Am][Am][Am]
Life, liberty and the pursuit of nothingness you
