In Decay

Sacrifice is just a daily part of the life
So, uphold the standard
Give it up, give it in, give away your pride
Left standing spineless
Taught right
You're taught right, bought right
So god damn life like
But behind the flesh you're machine

It's like a separate piece of hell
The way that we've bestowed it
Watch it work well
The way that we've controlled it
Taught right
You're taught right, bought right
So god damn life like
But behind the flesh you're machine

People every day
Content in their decay
Acknowledge and obey the price of life we pay
That burn you feel inside
That burn that's so alive
Extinguish it with common sense
And deprive your perseverance

We're staples every one of us
Contingent souls conformed to such
And the overwhelming truth is
We keep the wheels in motion
People every day
Acknowledge and obey the price of life we pay
That's why they're
Content in their decay

I don't give a damn about a day or two
So content in my decay
But pick me up when that day is through
Put me on my fucking way
Shackled hands
Shackled truth
Shackled days leave you a shackled youth
To break the mold that's bonded you
From this decay we must break through
So content in my decay
