Could Be Worse

Cops chase criminals though the subways
The less fortunate lie on the tracks
It's no wonder they'll amount to nothing
They've been told they're just a product of chance
Skyscrapers shut the citizens in
The rest'll run them to the ground
Stripped straight of their dignity
Without making a sound

Tied to the tracks

Belt down the barricades
Cuz their lives they tether off time
Dead and buried are the proud and brave
Convenience and nobility got no reason or rhyme
All the zombies in the three piece suits
Sucking brains while in cahoots with the deadman cutting corners to survive
Steppin' on the faces of those of us still alive

War torn media fill the subways
They got the criminals tied to the tracks
It's no wonder they'll amount to nothing
They've been told they're just a product of chance
Skyscrapers shut the citizens in
The rest'll run them to the ground
Stripped straight of their dignity
Without making a sound
