He's at the bar drinkin' again She's popping pills in her nightgown The child sleeps through the night Lung filled with tar; mommies cigarette lullaby The kid's grown to a man now Shell, of what he could of been The face of failure in man The face of man in me Every time I go to sleep I pray escape elates me We're all inbreds, turmoiled heads Expecting someone else to make the bed we lay in Depravity is all we've ever known This is the sad, hard fact of life We are born to live; we are born to die Conform to a world that needs your abiding body for its own goals A world of man, hate and mistrust; born from disgust Born from disgust You don't need to tell me you're crazy; your pupils dilate I feel your heart beat racing as your standing at the foot of a grave Ending life is a human right; so you say Consume the world we live in more every working day Every human on this earth has a debt to pay d**h is the release; release Spira from suffering d**h is a mistress that caresses your head She'll lure you to sleep with sweet promises of rest d**h is a mistress that caresses your head She'll lure you to bed with sweet promises of rest This is the sad, hard fact of life We are born to live; we are born to die Conform to a world that needs your abiding body for its own goals A world of man, hate and mistrust; born from disgust The blames on us all A rat race to fame Oh, we'll toil in despair You couldn't care We're all bystanders Standing by the creed Live, conform & die Another family of mouths to feed
