Starve the State

I hereby withdraw my consent
 To be party to the crimes of this government
 I'm withholding my treasure from you
 To prevent the atrocities we know you will do
 I'll no longer support the machine
 That swallows up lives and shits out their dreams
 Your empire-building is through
 When we open our eyes like you said we can't do
 Whoa oh oh
 Starve the state
 Whoa oh oh
 Before it's too late
 Whoa oh oh
 We can change our fate
 Whoa oh oh
 When we starve the state
 The hunger it has to stop
 We won't till it's fields or harvest it's crops
 And we'll pull the IV from it's vein
 Watch it hit the ground as it writhes in pain
 Scream till it bleeds from it's ears
 And return the beatings of a thousand years
 We'll put our boot on it's throat
 And we'll hold it down till the bastards choke
