Napalm Death - Awake (To a Life of Misery) Lyrics

We aren't their hatch
We are being bred through slavery

Thought trained to succeed
From here on the pain begins
We're maggots cast, sea of struggle
Bait for the big fish

Crawl, forever, crawling
Faith holds no answers
Ravenous, they greedily suck away
Will to even argue

Belief in something better
Downtrodden hopes still linger
Faces bear the same shallow fear
Of forgotten prosperity

Powers change
The promise of reward
Declarations false and unjust
Tame insecurity

A dreamlike notion, life eases by
Cushioning the blow of impending reality
Aimlessness trudging, flogging us
Awake

Thought trained to succeed
From here on the pain begins
We're maggots cast, sea of struggle
Bait for the big fish

Crawl, forever, crawling
Faith holds no answers
Ravenous, they greedily suck away
Will to even argue

Belief in something better
Downtrodden hopes still linger
Faces bear the same shallow fear
Of forgotten prosperity

Awake
