lyrics

Watch as the dogs chase down the weak
Tongues soaked defeat
So come my child, let's exhale our grief
Our wars are never won
As we all must learn, learn to become
Both friend and enemy

As we're all dying
We're dying to live
Don't you see, it's either sink or swim

Now what have you done, to my only son
I don't recognize his eyes anymore
You wore him thin, then wrapped him again
Now cloaked in self deceit
Yet still we remain
Confined and restrained
In this hell that we breed
So open your eyes
While I begin to defy
The world that shackled you and me

As we're all dying
We're dying to live
Don't you see, it's either sink or swim.
