"Modern Life" lyrics

"Modern Life"

Upon us all

Bought and sold into the lie of modern life
Given all the right things to pacify our anger and strife
Given the tv to help us forget modeling poisons we place our bets
Feeling like I can't see a thing when my eyes are wide open

Under the millennium's shadow
Hear the rain of justice fall
Awaiting all this time
Release upon us all
Under the millennium's shadow
Hear the rain of justice fall
Awaiting all this time
Release upon us all us all

The currency of life stretched out to wait
The blood on our hands will follow the fashion the innocent blood upon our plates
Withered in vision a martyred witness kept by contempt from our native stillness
Glued to the screams on the screen the false idols of order are calling

Under the millennium's shadow
Hear the rain of justice fall
Awaiting all this time
Release upon us all
Under the millennium's shadow
Hear the rain of justice fall
Awaiting all this time
Released upon us all

Upon us all

We all die we all die
Our choice lies in the time where we grow
Out of this modern life
Release upon us all

We're bought and sold into the lie
Of this fucking modern life
Our social mask calls our anger happiness
We're all crushed beneath the lie you've built

Calling you
To wake the fuck up
