* * * Standing on the backs of angels Destined to create Mounting the attack While heroes carry the weight
We spiral toward disaster Survival fading faster
Riding out the wave Content to feeding the machine Bleeding us to death The new American dream
You're blinded by your hunger Beware, your days are numbered
Tears fall from the shameless Shelter me, guide me to the edge of the water Selfless are the righteous Burning me, lead me like a lamb to the slaughter
Burning lines drawn in between What is right and what is wrong Victims of the radar String us along
We're onto your agenda The dead are wrong to nowhere
Tears fall from the shameless Shelter me, guide me to the edge of the water Selfless are the righteous Burning me, lead me like a lamb to the slaughter

Tears fall from the shameless Shelter me, guide me to the edge of the water Selfless are the righteous Burning me, lead me like a lamb to the slaughter
