Of Mice And Men Lyrics - The System Has Failed - Megadeth

The fire burns on and on 

That drives me on till all is gone 

Except the simple plans 

Of mice and men 

Back when I was just seventeen 

I thought that I knew everything 

I could make it in this scene 

To be a rising star that only gleamed 

But all the answers disagreed 

With the questions held for me 

I was legal now at twenty-one 

I knew the way the world should run 

My God just look what I had done 

Simply drunk and having fun 

Looked for friends, but I found none 

All alone at twenty-one

The fire burns on and on 

That drives me on till all is gone 

Except the simple plans 

Of mice and men 

The fire burns on and on 

That drives me on till all is gone 

Except the simple plans 

Of mice and men 

At twenty-five I was surprised 

That I was still even half alive 

Somehow I managed to survive 

I felt my body's doing time 

And In my back a hundred knives 

From friends at twenty-five 

Photos 

And now as Gabriel sounds my warning bell 

I'd buy your life, if you would sell 

A year or two, if less compelled 

So live your life and live it well 

There's not much left of me to tell 

I just got back up each time I fell 

The fire burns on and on 

That drives me on till all is gone 

Except the simple plans 

Of mice and men 

The fire burns on and on 

That drives me on till all is gone 

Except the simple plans 

Of mice and men 

The fire burns on and on 

That drives me on till all is gone 

Except the simple plans 

Of mice and men 

The fire burns on and on 

That drives me on till all is gone 

Except the simple plans 

Of mice and men 

The fire burns on and on 

That drives me on till all is gone 

Except the simple plans 

Of mice and men 

The fire burns on and on 

That drives me on till all is gone 

Except the simple plans 

Of mice and men
