_
Who would sing the praise of this captor?
A country of chrome and ash
Every time I try to run faster
I'm dragged back down on my ass
Cause the world's a fucking bastard
Built on a mountain of graves
So I pickup that gun on the dashboard
And aim it straight for my face
And the silence broke for a second there
But it was swallowed up by the dread
Cause I'd rather be smothered out by despair
Than put a bullet in my head
Cause the fuckers will do that for me
As the death-count covers my name
But till then I'll stick to the fantasy
That something could ever really change
But not in my lifetime
Not in my lifetime
Not in my lifetime
Not in my lifetime
Not in my lifetime
Not in my lifetime
Not in my lifetime
Not in my lifetime
A country of chrome and ash
Every time I try to run faster
I'm dragged back down on my ass
Cause the world's a fucking bastard
Built on a mountain of graves
So I pickup that gun on the dashboard
And aim it straight for my face
And the silence broke for a second there
But it was swallowed up by the dread
Cause I'd rather be smothered out by despair
Than put a bullet in my head
Cause the fuckers will do that for me
As the death-count covers my name
But till then I'll stick to the fantasy
That something could ever really change
But not in my lifetime
Not in my lifetime
Not in my lifetime
Not in my lifetime
Not in my lifetime
Not in my lifetime
Not in my lifetime
Not in my lifetime
