Feed Us is the fourth song from Tankian’s debut album called Elect the Dead and seems to be talking about a dying civilization.
[Verse 1]
Maybe we believe, she was ready to go
In the morning light
Maybe you believe that she was made of gold
In the east where you killed her
You lead us
When you need to feed us
You comfortably delete us
When you need your fetus
[Chorus]
You cheat us when you feed us with the lie
Stars look out and
Cheat us when you feed us with the lie
Stars look out
Goodbye, goodbye
[Verse 2]
She speaks unrehearsed languages from skin
In the morning light
Painting shadows on the faces of the dead
In front of their widows
[Chorus]
You cheat us when you feed us with the lie
Stars look out and
Cheat us when you feed us with the lie
Before it's too late
[Bridge]
Do you know that life is ending?
As we go, the dots connecting
We had our chance to save the garden
As it dies, our souls will harden
With these words chastising your conscience
We're breaking through and praying for transcendence
But you deceived us all now
[Chorus]
You cheat us when you feed us with the lie
Stars look out and
Cheat us when you feed us with the lie
Stars look out and
Cheat us when you feed us with the lie
Stars look out and
Cheat us when you feed us with the lie
Stars look out

She natured us for 10,000 years
She loved us, she cared for us and she is dying
Her name is civilization”
