GOVERNMENT WARNING LYRICS

"Walking Dead"

Everyone is a piece of the puzzle,
A piece of the system-no man is an island.
A single, turning gear in the machine,
We used to have a purpose, and we used to dream.

We traded it all to feel secure
At the expense of all that we hoped for.
The grinding wheels grind on until we're dead.
What about all that we were told as children?

They said, "You can be anything that you want."
Now, we're all grown up, and our lives are fuckin' burnt.
We work 'til we die and can't hope for more.
You can live and be facile, or you can die and be poor.

That's it, this is the world.
We're the walking dead, and we're forced to be glad.
We're led by the hand, shoved off the edge.
I don't want this lifestyle I'm being force fed.

Everyone gets fuckin' lost in the shuffle.
It hardens you up, or you crack under pressure.
The past just blurs and fuckin' fades away.
You're left standing alone, facing another day.

It's always downhill; it always gets worse.
This "gift of life" can seem like it's such a fuckin' curse.

They said we could be anything that we want.
Now, we're all grown up, and our lives are fuckin' burnt.
We work 'til we die and can't hope for more.
You can live and be facile, or you can die and be poor.

That's it, this is the world.
We're the walking dead, and we're forced to be glad.
We're led by the hand, shoved off the edge,
And I'm being force fed.

Walking dead, walking dead,
Walking dead, we are the walking dead!

We are the walking dead!
We are the walking dead!
Walking dead, walking dead,
Walking dead, walking dead!
