Collateral Damage

Take my life, it obviously counts for nothing

What can I say, or do to make you stop what you're doing?

Immolate? But I know that won't make a difference

Just silence me, cover me in concrete and rubble

Here we are, we're just collateral damage

Lost in the throes of a miserable planet

Take my name and throw me into the fire

Turn me to ash like everybody else

My last breath what use is it without a voice

I screamed in vain, like I ever had a fucking choice

Here we are we're just collateral damage

Lost in the throes of a miserable planet

Here we are we're just collateral damage

Lost in the throes of a fucking miserable planet

You better bury me deep so I can't escape

We've seen how this unfolds you come and take my home

Blockade all the roads where no one's free to roam

Evacuate the streets walk for miles everyday

Just to find out the next place is fucking happening again

You better bury me deep so I can't escape

Why is life so cheap, young life

It's taking its toll on me, pretending I am free

It could be you or me

Stop pretending that it couldn't be

It could be you or me
