Necessary Evil Lyrics by LIFESICK

Misanthropy

2022

[Chorus 1]
Fortunes made on human bone
Cities built on gravestone
Money goes in lights goes out

[Verse 1]
They're all living in a bubble they won't open their eyes
Someone built them a society of straight up lies
You better work to the bone and then die
The grip of debt will keep you terrified

[Pre-Chorus]
You're a slave
So am I
Working graves
Till we die
Eurgh

[Chorus 2]
Fortunes made on human bone
Cities built on gravestonе
Money goes in lights goes out
And you can stay alivе
For the right amount, ugh

[Verse 2]
Why do we
Drag ourselves
Through this suffering?
We push ourselves
To hate everything

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
It's like wealth is a disease
Feeding on the poor
Unable to be pleased
Too evil to ignore
Urgh
Ugh

[Interlude]
Bury my bones
Tell only those who's close where I lay
I'll carry my treasure
Everything I own to the grave
I'm forced to obey
There's masters, there's prey
And they'll find a way
To make my corpse pay
My silver and gold
Is the only thing that never decays
So leave me alone
Let the name on my stone waste away

[Pre-Breakdown]
We're addicted to the puppeteer
Who leads us into debt
Deeper with every breath

[Breakdown]
I'm nothing but a number
They can't wait to see me die
I'm not mine I'm theirs
Don't even own my life
Even the taste of death
Has an excessive price
I have to compensate for my own demise
