"Use Of A Weapon" lyrics
"Use Of A Weapon"
In your city built with concrete and lies
We have slaved away so lifeless
With every breath a compromise
So sickened by your process and our pain
Plague by the fear of a tomorrow, another day in vein, we can throw all this away
Trading our sorrow for sin. We can throw all this away
For too long we have starred. For too long we have fucking stayed so blind to every instinct as you paved the way
So tomorrow we will take back every year you stole from us, and every night silently desperate and hopeless
Every dream never realized, and every tear shed from these eyes
We will sin and you will suffer. We will set fire to your machines
We will put life back into hearts and you will suffer
We will run life through our veins and you will suffer
Passion will be found in time, and your world will fall behind us
Under your dark polluted skies, we may live as the damned
But our essence and soul and freedom will unfold
And only in death shall we see the end
For as long as the light of the sun still dances across every sea
We will know there is something to live and die for, and we will know every breath to be free
Writer(s): Paul Andrew Waggoner, Thomas Giles Rogers Jr.
