For Us Or Against Us Lyrics - Singles - Dying Fetus

Turn your back and take a look 

At what the world is really like 

What is there for you and I? 

(Nothing short of suicide) 

Burn the candle at both ends 

The options growing few 

Something's wrong, don't pretend 

(You must now decide) 

Mounting pressure, social breakdown 

A dying planet, revolution, mass uprising 

We're begging for it 

Live for us, or live for them 

The worker is the key 

Shut outside, with no defense 

(From factory to burning fields) 

Sweat and blood for days and years 

Hours wasted, still more to life than wealth and war? 

(What is left for them to kill?) 

The force of life is dead of thirst 

Golden years have turned to rust 

Our spirits crushed 

Our bodies bleed, our throats are cut 

And dreams of better times have turned to dust 

For the last time, can you fuck off and die? 

You made this world and killed it 

So rich that your cash has made you blind 

You don't give a fuck about us 

My patience is too thin to try 

Your kind was made to suffer 

By the powers we hold in time 

Your life will soon be over 

Our lives determined by the system's needs 

Lost inside its cold machinery 

Fucked for life 'cause the base is paved 

We whore ourselves out for a daily wage 

Laughing at the children by their feet 

Their greed can turn such innocence to meat 

So contract signed and with no mind to feed 

The masses slave it while the masters feast 

The sources of their lies are hidden in the past 

The essence of the truth lies dead in the aftermath 

Find another way before the cause is lost 

Pull yourself up and we'll fight together 

With us or not, there are no in betweens 

Try and think fast or you won't be breathing 

From this point the only way is up 

Time is running out, the door is slamming shut 

The burden of a cost may be too much 

It takes a lot of lives just to break the cycle 

It takes a lot of hate and takes a lot of luck 

The sooner it's all done we can finally say we're free 

Burning our consciousness 

The fire is spreading 

The challenge is waiting
