"Savages" lyrics

"Savages"

There's a strand in the DNA
There's a part that's still untamed
That only comes out when it's make or break
Feel your back up against the wall
We are animals after all
You can't keep us caged

So bite the hand 'til it bleeds
Take whatever you need
Addicted to the violence
We are all savages that prey
Prey upon the weak
Bringing out the worst of us
We are all savages
Savages

There's a flame running through our veins
There's a hate that just won't fade
That only comes out when we go insane
Feel your sanity start to break
Forget the lies that we're all saints
We're swimming in rage

I'm thinking it's all burning
The tables turning
And they don't have to play the game
But they're losing all the same

So bite the hand 'til it bleeds
Take whatever you need
Addicted to the violence
We are all savages that prey
Prey upon the weak
Bringing out the worst of us
We are all savages
Savages
Savages

I think I know
There's something to this struggle
Trapping our hope
This wasn't our fault, no
Nothing seems to change
When we're counting our stains
Placing all the blame
On each other

So bite the hand 'til it bleeds
Take whatever you need
Addicted to the violence
We are all savages
Savages

So bite the hand til it bleeds
Take whatever you need
Addicted to the violence
We are all savages that prey
Prey upon the weak
Bringing out the worst of us
We are all savages
Savages
Savages
