lyrics

We are a nation of victims
The first ones to suffer and bleed
We know we are made to be broken
This is how it will always be
We rip each other to shreds whenever one steps out of the pack
We all exist on borrowed time, once it's gone we won't get it back
A steady course keeps us headed towards death or oblivion
Along this trail we were destined to fail, braindead and oblivious
We were never going to be fixed
They factored us in as an acceptable loss
We know we are vain by nature
Blindly chase the newest thing we come across
We are a hopeless generation
Our future doesn't matter, only here and now
Welcome to the expendable age where we don't ask why and we don't know how
A steady course keeps us headed towards death or oblivion
Along this trail we were destined to fail, braindead and oblivious
We saw it coming but instead of running we welcomed it home
There was no struggle, never wanted any trouble
Afraid to atone
Misinterpreting the signs
So easy to deceive when noone questions the crimes
Misrepresented and defined
So easy to deceive the unquestioning mind
Misunderstanding the lies
So easy to deceive when noone ever wonders why
Miscalculations denied
So easy to deceive they hardly even had to try
Forgive us not for we know what we have done
We chased away the sun
Let us rot, let us decompose alive in pain
We brought along the rain
A rope wrapped around our throats, a selfish suicide
Descending the slippery slope, we follow the tide
A desire to just disappear and forget we're alive
It will be like we were never here, as if we're yet to arrive
We're not well enough to leave well enough alone
Forever waiting for our moment to pass
We have always been a danger to ourselves
A concept not so difficult to grasp
