Atrophy - Killing Machine lyrics

rate me

[Music: James Gulotta]

[Lyrics: Brian Zimmerman, Chris Lykins]

Your life begins at 17, you enlist with Uncle Sam

Trained for battle, prepared to die, you don't give a damn.

Your weapon is your life and love shooting the enemy down.

Killing women and children and everyting around

First fought for freedom now for pleasure, you've become obsessed

Never feel at ease until you're laid to rest

Sargeant tells you and you carry out his every command.

No return from this life you're on the 4 year plan.

[Chorus:]

Born to kill

There's no retreat

Live to fight

A Killing machine

Politicians play a deadly game now

you play it too

Once you die, you're forgotten they'll find somebody new

Seeing through different eyes much better than the old

Block out all the needles carnage

your heart grows cold

Stripped of your humanity, no choice but to obey

Turned into a predator, civilians are your prey

[Repeat Chorus]

[1st solo: Chris]

[2nd solo: Rick]

Seeing through different eyes much better than the old

Block out all the needles carnage

your heart grows cold

Stripped of your humanity, no choice but to obey

Turned into a predator, civilians are your prey

Politicians play a deadly game now

you play it too

Once you die, you're forgotten they'll find somebody new

[Repeat Chorus]

[Solo: Rick]
