Born To Live 02:43
Born to live in a world that despises you This makes me feel so vindictive Don’t even try to justify what was inflicted Does this torment make you proud? Abusing those don’t follow your crowd You’ve put the innocent on trial You mindless fucking cowards You took a life when you went too far (You don’t know) how it feels to be victimised, cause you weren’t (Born to live) in a world that despises you No justice No repentance No conscience No acceptance There’s nothing here for me I live in blasphemy Take my life and set me free (X2) So lay me down to sleep alone I live in blasphemy Take my life and set me free No acceptance No forgiveness No repentance No repentance

Not my choice Not my life I constantly feel I’m achieving a goal Only for the finish line to be moved No idea where the fuck I'm going But with everything left to prove It feels like I'm Swimming against the tides Just trying to keep my world spinning In this life we face a fight To just stay on track and keep living No one’s there for you No freedom in my life No real room to move When your head’s inside a vice Not my choice Not my life Moving through the motions There must be more than this Days spent devoid of direction I’m marching blindly into the abyss Swimming against the tides Just trying to keep my world spinning In this life we face a fight To just stay on track and keep living No one’s there for you No freedom in my life No real room to move When your head’s inside a vice Forced to make choices Decisions defining my life My chosen path is killing me Feels like a noose around my neck Round my neck Told myself I’d make a difference Am I wasting my life? Modernity will lead to extinction It’s about time

I’ve given so much for you But it was never both ways Let down by the person I trusted Felt stupid for the fact that I cared For the fact that I cared A bond so easily severed Trust that took years to build Broken promises and two faced lies Now you've cracked under the weight of your own guilt Your own guilt I've tried so hard to forgive and forget So fucking hard to forgive and forget Forgive - Forget You took my everything Believe me, I've suffered for this Never felt pain like this You parasitic piece of shit Never felt pain like this You take and take - and now you’re gone I think of you whenever I close my eyes And I can't solve this with my fists Cold hearted, girl you're dead inside Looked deep into my eyes and lied No love left here None of this is fair And every time I sleep next to you It just reminds me that he was there

Feed off the weak and the helpless Fake respect from the crushed and defenseless Younger kids look up to you If only they could see the real truth Portrayed as something you're not For the whole of your life Expect respect but never give it I won't let this lie Portrayed as something you’re not For the whole of your life Your family use excuses But I know you're just human waste No friends, just acquaintances It's a lonely life ahead Portrayed as something you're not For the whole of your life Expect respect but never give it I won't let this lie The tables have turned When will you learn, you're not that person Left for dead Smashed up, and left for dead Can't you see you've got no friends left? No one to turn to It's been so long and who's laughing now? You’ve paid for your mistakes Your body will never be found
5.
I stand alone, watching water seeping in Drowning bodies plague my vision Compassion abandoned Forced to hate by force fed lies Carpet bombs fall from above While death reigns from blackened skies Melted skin Broken bones and lost limbs Destroying families, through Ignorance from within No choices left, pain inflicted by borders Condemned to death and killed by order The voiceless remain voiceless They select who sheds a tear I step outside their false boundaries I won't give into to fear I won't give in Zero Capacity to love displayed Try and compare your own struggles like they're somehow the same For you Nowhere left to turn Homes burned down to the ground Tear gas, fear lasts A vicious story where the truth won't be found The silence is deafening. Nowhere left to turn Homes burned down to the ground Tear gas, fear lasts A vicious story where the truth won't be found With their mouths sewn shut
