Born to Die

Born to die and you get to sit and watch your TV set
Believe the lies before your eyes, credit cards and apple pies
50 stars to blind your eyes, 13 stripes to hypnotize
Free thought is gone, you'll never see you're just a pawn

You'll die tomorrow but today your empty dreams
Just fade away, evaporate, dissolve to hate
While you survive and wait until a lifeless ate
Your stupid lives just piddle on

You slave for others and then you're gone
I just can't escape the lying
Moment we are born, we're dying
And it's such an ugly sight

We have no rights
We have no future
No reasons, why
Just born to die, oh

Your dumb self can't appreciate the freedom in my thought
The weak sense of autonomy when I'm tripping in my squat
That empty void was never filled
But the dreams of others you helped kill

You justify, will linger on
Don't you know your dreams
All die the day your born?

We have no God
There's only ignorant bliss
No reasons why
We're born to die, oh
(We're born to die)

We have no rights
We have no future
No reasons why
We are born to die
Just born to die, oh

Going to bed, God is dead, lies and truth are in my head
Your history, society, economy, it isn't me
It's all on you, reality, it's what you do, it's what you make
The truth in lies, the freedom dies, the mind it numbs, the spirit breaks

With all our rights
It kills our future
Our reasons why
We are born to die
Just born to die, oh
