Swing The Axe

Wish I had known that life lets you down
 Wish I had known that everyone drowns
 In a sewer just a puddle of swill and spit
 And I can't breathe (I can't breathe)
 'Cause it all smells like bullshit
 We came into this world pure and shining
 And now we drag through the mud
 Bitching and whining
 As machines carry us to other machines
 To churn the chemicals that kill everything
 That was once serene
 It falls on our heads
 It falls on our heads
 Like the axe
 Like the mortars
 Like a righteous intervention
 It falls on our heads
 Like the rain
 Like the pain
 We're the victims of ill intention
 It falls on our heads
 The world is dead
 Denial and consumption
 Poisoned by our own production
 Denial and consumption
 Poisoned by our own production
 Tell me who do we blame
 When the first turn up dead
 And the children are born with disfigured heads
 When the ground won't produce
 And the leaves don't grow back
 As the fires burn forever
 In the lines of smoke stacks
 Let the lights burn out
 Squander the resources further
 The droughts
 Pretend they'll be a solution
 As we drown in the swill and polution
 Life is a cycle of sin and sorrow
 All we know are the crimes we commit
 Life is a cycle of sin and sorrow
 We made our bed
 And now we'll lie in it
 We made our bed
 And now we'll lie in it
 Are we so diluted in this septic tank
 That we turn to plague and poison
 Like a temporary savior
 No whispers of healing
 No help no warning
 It falls on our heads
 It falls on our heads
 Like the axe
 Like the mortars
 Like a righteous intervention
 It falls on our heads
 Like the rain
 Like the pain
 We're the victims of ill intention
 It falls on our heads
 The world is dead
 Swing the axe
 It falls on our heads
 Swing the axe
 It falls on our heads
 Swing the axe
 It falls on our heads
 Swing the axe
 It falls on our heads
 The world is fucking dead
