"Come What(ever) May" lyrics

"Come What(ever) May"

Can you take away every single day
That we have given to another false prophet?
Can you give us all a reason not to fall
Before you take away another broken promise?
Show your pretty face, hide the bitter taste
You're still the rapist of an entire nation
You wanna be the man? You gotta be a man
But you are nothing but a sad insinuation

Oh, how can we ever live this down?
How can we ever live this down?

Keep your fingers crossed, the truth is at a loss
Big decision for an ordinary coward
The only problem is your fuckin' rhetoric
We're more in danger than before you took power
Now it's just a game; God, you'll never change
You'd sell us out if you could only find a buyer
You don't give a shit, as long as idiots
Are in your corner, you could set us all on fire

Oh, how can we ever live this down?
How can we ever live this down?

You never wanted to be
They only wanted a parody
You want the world to be free
What the hell is free about it?

Now we've reached the end, just get it over with
But this is building to an adamant conclusion
Come whatever may, there's gonna be a day
When we have figured out a plausible solution
Everything you've done is killing everyone
A little smile on a homicidal bastard
You wanna be a man? You better have a plan
Another failure is a guaranteed disaster

Oh, how can we ever live this down?
How can we ever live this down?

You never wanted to be
They only wanted a parody
You want the world to be free
You only wanted the world...

You never wanted to be
They only wanted a parody
You want the world to be free
But what the fuck is free about it?
What the fuck is free about it?
What the fuck is free about it?
