Your Funeral Lyrics

Splattered like an insect across the

Windshield of life

Across the tracks a thousand backs

Just waiting for the knife

Good intentions shot to hell

Like pennies down a wishing well

Everything will work out fine

Get back on the assembly line

Breakfast of failures

Pour it in your cup

Still got a conscience

It's just how you shut it up

Yesterday you cashed your pay

Now you're already broke

Our system's been designed to fail

For those who need it most

We've learned to fake sincerity

To grovel for their charity

Just blend into the scenery

You're part of the machinery

The nail that sticks up

Gets hammered down

From the cradle

'Til we're six feet underground

Thought we were special

Now we know the truth

Traded in our dignity

And gave away our youth

We're fuel for the fire we're meat for the stew

Keep looking forward whatever you do

Applying the blinders to keep us on task

Here's to our future how long will it last

The dice were loaded

It's useless to pretend

What used to feel like everything

Was nothing in the end

Burning our candles

Down to the nub

This'll be your elegy

This'll be your funeral

We're fuel for the fire we're meat for the stew

Keep looking forward whatever you do

Applying the blinders to keep us on task

Here's to our future how long will it last
