Exodus - One Foot In The Grave lyrics

Why do people sell their souls away Just to ride the horse another day They're all slaves to the h**n But it's a war they'll never win They'll never live to see the error of their ways One foot in the grave Ruled by the d** they crave It all began as a need for kicks Now they'd sell their lives for a fix Powerless to break those chains There's only losses and there's never no gains They only live and die as a slave With one foot, one foot in the grave It promised an escape but only lied Master of the world they're trapped inside The needle and the spoon only gave A one - way ticket leading to the grave And suffering until the day they die
