V1. Dead people... Walking around
Zombies living... above the ground
Money slaves... Stalk the streets
In dead cities... they beat the beat
No more eyes... No more souls
No more ears... to hear
Everyone... all feel the same
Living in financial fear

Chorus
I see the Dead... I see the Dead
We are the Dead... we are the Dead

V2. Free thinking... decimated
As we all... stand and stare
At propaganda... state created
To suppress us... everywhere
Ruling classes... work together
To keep us all... in ordered line
On the day... of the apocalypse
That is when... our sun will shine

Rpt chorus

M8 Nobody dare to criticise
Regimes that seek to rule us
Tyrant Leaders with power in their eyes
Will always look to fool us
Don't wanna see no revolution
Bootstomp us into the ground
Establishment keep their iron grip
They always gonna be around

Rpt chorus

End

"I see men assassinated around me every day. I walk through rooms of the dead, streets of the dead, cities of the dead; men without eyes, men without voices; men with manufactured feelings and standard reactions; men with newspaper brains, television souls and high school ideas." ~Charles Bukowski
