J.D. Overdrive - The Greater Good

In this light I see darkness
In this pleasure there's pain
There is so much knowledge
For us to gain

Life is a cycle of changes
But aren't we changing in vain?
Because whatever I do
I end up betrayed again

Crowns for the rich
Death to the poor
Freedom protected by titanium walls
How does it feel
To be a part of this world?

Now you will suffer
Just like you should
There's no need to pray
For the greater good
The errors of man
Will always suffice
We're governed by rats
And helpless like mice

We lost the will to fight

Lokk at the birth of this madness
Lokk at the birth of defeat
Can you even remember
What it was like to be free

Can't say I learned my lesson
I still want to believe
That there is something more to this life
Than fucking misery

Crowns for the rich
Death to the poor
Freedom protected by titanium walls
How does it feel
To be a part of this world?

So say what you gotta say
You know it doesn't matter anyway
We're all in this together now
We're neck-deep in this cesspool now
Yeah, there were times when I knew my place
When I put my trust in the human race
Now all I see are legions
Of human waste

And I'm thankful for it
That's right, I'm thankful for it
I'm thankful I can see right through their shit
I know I'm all alone in thin world
And that's fine, that's alright, I can fucking deal with it

It doesn't bother me
Not even one bit
Still you want me to care
Want me to give a damn
And for what?
For the greater good?
Well, you gotta understand
I amd the greater good

There's a fire in the distance
And there's a fork in the road
I think this is where we part our ways
For the greater good of all
