Dead Souls

[Verse 1]
I'm a dissident; I say what we say is true
It's not, but we avow our sins
We saw it as the creed; I'm an alien hiding
Among the worker bees

[Pre-Chorus]
The story's told
We'll be rats in a fight
I see in time
We are dead before we die

[Chorus]
Well, they make the laws to keep control
But in the end, I'll join the line of dead souls

[Verse 2]
The shrink explains: I'm dysfunctional or ill
Just by some other name
I'm not cut out for this role
And in the end, I join the line of dead souls

[Pre-Chorus]
Because those died without ever living
We only take what we are given

[Chorus]
It was rushing by, everyone's on the run
And I pass the time in the line of dead souls

[Chorus]
Well, they make the laws to keep control
But in the end, I'll join the line of dead souls
