A fate worse than death Power and balances Leave us to build from ruin For all the challenges Have become meaningless And our lives expendable In the scheme of everything There's not a thing you can do But let it consume you Bated breath The clouds loom overhead My heart sinks down Beneath my chest Nothing survives the radiation Delusions Selfish nation Global eradication Bated breath Beneath my chest How could you be so careless? Global eradication Delusions of grandeur And a selfish nation A moment's notice Is all we have To find closure In deprivation Keep a gun clutched in your hand And watch as it reaches My city turned to a wasteland From what I understand It's just a matter of time 'till it reaches Keep a gun clutched Make demands It's what got us here in the first place If you want to survive You have to be ruthless And what a shame To be given everything Just to throw it away The contemptuous nature Of human idiots Unrelenting The only thing That can survive the winter Is me and you Each soul you're tied to Will find it's way On a new plane Far away from here And such is life It doesn't have to stop here Whether I'm wrong or right We all have little choice But to slip into that state of Uncertainty
