Dried Leaves

It's him or me
preemptive strikes
you save the trees
won't save a life
Burn the city
say it's for God
you won't feel pity
it's still for God.

We're all....
Dried leaves!
Crushed under the heel of society.
Robots!
Told what to think by corporations.
And Nature!
Is just an obstruction to progress.
And free thought!
stands in the way of everyone's profit!

(Guitar)

And now we see
the pain and strife
no one agrees
we pay the price
we want freedom
the give us none
we want wisdom
they cut and run

We're all....
Dried leaves!
Crushed under the heel of society.
Robots!
Told what to think by corporations.
And Nature!
Is an obstruction to progress.
And free thought!
stands in the way of everyone's profit!

We'll all die
alone
with no God above
We all sigh
as one
with no one to love
We all cry
and sigh
with no one to blame! (blame could work as a scream)

(guitar gets louder then fades away to complete silence)

We're all....
Dried leaves!
Crushed under the heel of society.
Robots!
Told what to think by corporations.
And Nature!
Is an obstruction to progress.
And free thought!
stands in the way of everyone's profit!

We cry and sigh and die
with no one to blame....
