"XYST" lyrics

"XYST"

Throw me a bone here
I'm down on my luck
You won life's lottery
Now you don't give a fuck

Throw me a bone here
You've so much on your plate
Strip the fields like locusts
Then flushes down the grave

At what cost? Innocence
When we're crushed, jump the fence
Don't forget you're one of us
You're one of us

It's medieval
Lepers at your gate
Homeless and lonely
There's no net you take away

At what cost? Innocence
When we're crushed, jump the fence
Don't forget you're one of us

At what cost? Innocence
When we're crushed, jump the fence
Don't forget you're one of us
You're one of us

You're one of us
You're one of us
