Corrosion of Conformity Follow

They say they live their lives with purityOnly looking through the whites of their eyesOne nation under God, just like protectoryAre they really hearing the third world cries?History repeats itselfSelf-emulation breeding prosperityAs the nation grows, the brotherhood dies"Free as a bird" are words meant for you and meWords that never fit between the liesHistory repeats itselfI was born in a nightmare - didn't have a choiceNo one seems to listen to 'cos no one seems to hear my voiceI am but one of billions - teaming faceless legionsDamned to repeat the crimes of those who went before(Chorus)The teeth in the gears of the killing machineAre getting sharper as time moves onAs the politician's wingtip presses on the gasA thousand soldiers will soon be gonePlowing through the land to annihlate for peaceAnother war child is spawnedSowing seeds of destruction in the name of the beastDamned for all timeBurning future remembers the smoldering pastJust a cruel lesson - chalked-up experienceLife is a sin when it begins in an iron maskDie if you try using your biased senseHistory repeats itselfRivers of corruption flowing way too fastRacing to pollute for their own greedMalnutritioned wings don't have the strength to lastFight to the death over one last seedHistory repeats itselfI am a witness to all that is and all that should not beI am cursed with a vision that forces me to seeSometimes I prayto an unmoving voidFor the day that I may close my eyes to the horror which fills me inside(Chorus)Damned for all time...
