My idiot mind melts in a dizzying swirl
The sickening symptom of a dying world
Where human greed grows from national pride
No hope for the future, no choice to decide
The wealthy bribing pawns for their patriot games and
Religion serves this purpose much in the same way
That we fight over trivial shit and
A hatred is born with people dying from it
Don't think, just take a look and see
our genocidal tendencies
will get you in the end
you'll be killing your best friend
you think that you're immune
but you will change your tune
it's buried deep inside
your thirst for genocide
It's "us" against "them" or it's "them" against "us"
When life turns to survival we all get on the bus
And on the topic of trust when all media lies
The fervor reaches fever-pitch through fiery eyes
It's out of control and we're losing our grip
And it all turns into battle on a sinking ship
The ones that sit back; they're enjoying it all
(Cuz) The over-population means humanities fall
Don't think, just take a look and see
our genocidal tendencies
will get you in the end
you'll be mercing your best friend
you think that you're immune
but you will change your tune
it's buried deep inside
your thirst for genocide
Commodification with no means for subsistence
Grab what you can becomes the world's existence
Robbing and raping are the murderous crews
We watch from the side-lines on the 10 o'clock news
Alone in your den and you think to yourself:
"They're sickening animals and nothing else"
But the day will come and your time is soon
You'll be on the frontlines, not your suburban cocoon
Don't think, just take a look and see
our genocidal tendencies
will get you in the end
you'll be mercing your best friend
you think that you're immune
but you will change your tune
it's buried deep inside
your thirst for genocide
It's buried deep inside
It's buried deep inside
