The Roughneck Riot - Waiting To Die lyrics
rate meBright neon lights guide us all through the grey
Don’t know what to do or to say
Daily routine drives them all to their graves
Spend every last pound on the way
Buy all you need here, it's on sale
And just sign your life away
You can tell by the look on our face, we're sick of this place
It just leaves a bad taste in your mouth
All through the nation, distinct lack of patience,
We sing our contempt, with such imperfect cadence
We hope that one day we'll make one small change,
But by the looks of things here it'll be a long wait
I don't want to be the one sitting here waiting to die
How much longer will we sit around wasting our time?
Waiting to die
The dreams we had now fade away in the night
Blocked in by the concrete skyline
Factories spill death out in front of our eyes
Where's the horizon we all had in sight?
It's harder to leave here than before
You get nothing with what you know
Education that nobody can afford
It won't be long before you kill off the poor
If I could find my way out of these streets
Without poisonous air to breathe
I'll admit it still breaks my heart
To watch you tear it apart
I don't want to be the one sitting here waiting to die,
How much longer will we sit around wasting our time?
Waiting to die
Well, I don't want to be the one sitting here waiting to die,
How much longer will we sit around wasting our time?
Waiting to die
