Poison Dream

Monsters have run inside of me From my birth on sour ground Demons swimming my bloodstream Festering without a sound Dead inside You are the bull Dead inside They lulled to sleep Dead inside Struck colorblind Can't see red through the green A legacy, a poisoned dream Fortunes made on misery A burning river, a black sea Bloody skies and dying memories This poisoned dream Toxic temple and polluted bliss Residuals for evil men I never had a choice in this Sacrificed for their profit Dead inside Will you pray Dead inside Or will you fight? Dead inside There's no one for us But us in this toxic life A legacy, a poisoned dream Fortunes made on misery A burning river, a black sea Bloody skies and dying memories This poisoned dream Rage inside this poisoned dream Because you're not a human being, just a fine to be paid Just the cost of doing business in their cancerous trade More collateral damage to be swept away A footnote in the story of their moral decay Know you'll never find compassion in their empty souls From their ravenous eyes to their corrupted bones Life means nothing to them as our history shows Endless chemical warfare waged on our homes Dead inside You are the bull Dead inside Awake from sleep Open your eyes Gouge the heart of their greed A legacy, a poisoned dream Fortunes made on misery A burning river, a black sea Bloody skies and dying memories This poisoned dream We're at war, war, war In this poisoned dream
