Colour of my Disease

It's like every second of every day was built to wilt and be thrown away
these cocaine kicks and cancer sticks, credit cards your life's so hard
so let it fly, real uncovered, does your lover love when you push and shove her?
Underage and underrated but when you're high your also sedated

Life is short and life is sweet
we got a foreign war or urban streets
but in our house, our own don't eat
so it's blood soaked sand, or splashed concrete

So how many dead and napalm scars, do we need to feel free where we are?
these wars on drugs and wars for more are by and against the young and the poor
bedtime stories and fairy tales, your arms sales and coffin nails
better horde your cash cause it's gettin' colder, shredded soldiers and manila folders

Warp DNA and eat MRE's, or drop LSD and smoke PCP
death for one, prison the other, our freedom is a choice to be strangled or smothered
so this mission world collide, the definition of attrition is death on both sides
damn the false and damn your pride, it's not the promised land until we're all inside.

I'm livin' ecstasy and I'm livin' punk rock, I'm livin' how I'm livin' cause we're livin' on a clock
You're livin' how you're livin' cause you're livin' someone's lie
Tell me what you see when you look into his eye, a blackened mind or a vacant space
A slack fucking jaw and an alcohol face, so war at home or war abroad
You wear a suit so that makes you god? I hope to live and see a peaceful day
but if I can't perhaps our children may and right the wrongs that came before
Brothers and sisters forevermore.
