Held Hostage

lyrics

How do we know
Who we can trust
When the innocents are the ones handcuffed
Teachers, lawyers, fascists and priests
Police, politicians who are we to believe?

I’ll tell you this right now
I hope you’ll understand
By the way things are going
Everything will soon end
Don’t even bother
There’s nothing you can do
Because everyone's fucked
And it starts with me and you

The truth is a lie
You can see it on the TV
Or turn on the radio
For this false reality
The worlds fucking dying
Because of these conditions
You better start to pray
Or you’ll die for your religion

Can't even walk outside without being robbed
While another fucking country is next to be bombed
Can't even go to school without being shot
While another fucking murderer is never even caught

Chorus:

Born here in these numbering bar codes
Our lives are packaged and sold
We're all held hostage
We're all going down
The world is going under and taking us along
So step aside and watch it die

There is no giving up
Survival of the fittest
They just want to conquer
Who can last the longest
Struggling to survive
This isn’t how it’s supposed to be
Half the world is starving
With nothing to eat
Where is the answer
Where is our help
Where is this help in this world
That wants to kill me today

Chorus

Watch it die
So step aside and watch it die because it won’t last long.
