Atreyu - Live To Labor lyrics

[Intro: Alex Varkatzas] Yeah [Verse 1: Alex Varkatzas] In the cold dead of night Wrest your self from sleep To face the morning light So Pathologically Trapped in a system that breaks originality In favor of bland safe marketability Middle of a long day Turns into working long weeks What are we doing this for Whose f**ing stocks will increase At times we're all just little junkies and who*es Clawing scratching unattainable dreams [Chorus: Brandon Saller and Alex Varkatzas] How much can we take To labor and to break Our backs against the system's walls I say smash it f**ing down In control of our fate We produce and we create The guns from which we sell our souls I say smash it f**ing all [Verse 2: Alex Varkatzas] How ironic is the plan of our lives Working doubles to survive, to get by A pa**ionless job in a meaningless lie I despise being trite to get by What do you offer? What can you create? What do you contribute? What profit is made? [Chorus: Brandon Saller and Alex Varkatzas] How much can we take To labor and to break Our backs against the system's walls I say smash it f**ing down In control of our fate We produce and recreate The cost for which we sell our souls I say smash it f**ing all [Bridge: Alex Varkatzas] I say smash it f**ing down Smash it f**ing down [Chorus: Brandon Saller and Alex Varkatzas] How much can we take To labor and to break Our backs against the system's walls I say smash it f**ing down In control of our fate We produce and we create The guns from which we sell our souls I say smash it f**ing all [Outro: Alex Varkatzas] I say smash it f**ing all
