Cadavers Lyrics

I was lost in a daze

Growing up in the

Land of the free

I was afraid

Because nothing is what it seems

& sooner or later

We all asleep alone

A long list of shortcomings

From which we've grown

It's easy to get lost in this sea

We're attacked at all angles

Because nothing is what it seems

Our lives are wasted

Cadavers in the basement

And we're falling

Falling apart

Looking for endings

Our lines are written in the sand

Arrest us the second we take to the streets

Bleeding taxpayers like a fiscal leech

With guns more important than students

Queer kids arrested for living their lives

Doctors arrested for helping their citizens

Your blood runs green and you're bleeding out

And everyone knows it

You poison the rivers, the lakes & the sea

Burn & make toxic the air that we breathe

You salt the earth & cut down the trees

But I'm forced to grow the seed within me

Nevermind that I don't want it

That my reproductive system's rotten

Or the risk that I could die carrying my own begotten

Fascists marching freely in the streets

Is this AmeriKKK or Nazi Germany?

Our lives are wasted

Cadavers in the basement

We're falling apart

Looking for the endings

Our lines are in the sand
