  • The state of the nation, violation!
    A broken promise is as good as a lie
    The hell is humongous, the devil's among us
    And we will burn because we won't unite!

    We won't witness anymore freedom.
    Where is anybody? do we need 'em?
    I would rather fight,
    Than let another die.
    We're the problem,
    But we're also the solution
    All hope is gone!

    If you want you cannot take it from me
    If you think you can, you still don't know me
    Let me tell you, when I said it, I meant it
    And I will always have the right to defend it

    Fifty seconds, a hundred murders
    The bill of rights is a bill of sale.
    What will you do when the war is over?
    What will you do when your systems fail!?

    We have made the present obsolete.
    What do you want?
    What do you need?
    We'll find a way,
    When all hope is gone!
    We've seen the fall of the elite.
    Bury your life,
    Take your disease.
    We'll end the world,
    When all hope is gone!

    We have made the present obsolete
    What do you want?
    What do you need?
    We'll find a way
    When all hope is gone
    We've seen the fall of the elite
    Bury your life
    Take your disease
    We'll end the world
    When all hope is gone

    The wretched are the wounded
    The hungry starved to death
    At a place where no-one goes
    The air itself is a final breathe
    So discontinue
    The antiseptic cash charade
    As the cry of justice comes
    Our malignant fire fades

    I am the reason your future suffers
    I am the hatred you won't embrace
    I am the worm of a pure distinction
    I am the remedy, spit in my face
    All your lies and wars are out-dated
    All your subjects are dulling mind games
    I can rattle off a million other reasons why
    But doesn't matter when the only thing we love will die

    We have made the present obsolete
    What do you want?
    What do you need?
    We'll find a way
    When all hope is gone
    We've seen the fall of the elite
    Bury your life,
    Take your disease
    We'll end the world,
    When all hope is gone

    We have made the present obsolete
    What do you want?
    What do you need?
    We'll find a way,
    When all hope is gone
    We've seen the fall of the elite
    Bury your life,
    Take your disease
    We'll end the world
