For their capital
Lead us lead us
To the burial
Bleed us bleed us
For their capital
Lead us lead us
To the burial
Yeah!
Yeah!
Step aside and watch the lions roar
As they rule, with an iron fist and boundless force
Like a plague, their epidemic spreads across the floor
Just let me introduce you to who's behind that door
A smiling face, with style and grace, they'll show you to the fire
Bleed us bleed us
For their capital
Lead us lead us
To the burial
They build their, reign of wealth through manufactured wars
As they ship, all our factories off the foreign shores
Just to keep, pockets full and leave the people poor
This is the kind of system that we've been slaving for
Eventually, like sheep we'll be, led blindly to the slaughter
Bleed us bleed us
For their capital
Lead us lead us
To the burial
Headstone bleeds admiration
A backhanded eulogy
In the face of devastation
Gladly they'll sing our praise
For a life of slaving and digging our own graves
Now just let the usher show you to your final resting place
Yeah what a disgrace, we are
Learn to breathe, and you will see, your life is what you make it
Bleed us bleed us
For their capital
Lead us lead us
To the burial
Bleed us bleed us
For their capital
Lead us lead us
To the burial
Ooh
Bleed us bleed us For their capital Lead us lead us To the burial Bleed us bleed us For their capital Lead us lead us To the burial Yeah! Yeah! Step aside and watch the lions roar As they rule, with an iron fist and boundless force Like a plague, their epidemic spreads across the floor Just let me introduce you to who's behind that door A smiling face, with style and grace, they'll show you to the fire Bleed us bleed us For their capital Lead us lead us To the burial They build their, reign of wealth through manufactured wars As they ship, all our factories off the foreign shores Just to keep, pockets full and leave the people poor This is the kind of system that we've been slaving for Eventually, like sheep we'll be, led blindly to the slaughter Bleed us bleed us For their capital Lead us lead us To the burial Headstone bleeds admiration A backhanded eulogy In the face of devastation Gladly they'll sing our praise For a life of slaving and digging our own graves Now just let the usher show you to your final resting place Yeah what a disgrace, we are Learn to breathe, and you will see, your life is what you make it Bleed us bleed us For their capital Lead us lead us To the burial Bleed us bleed us For their capital Lead us lead us To the burial Ooh Explain Request ×
