Dead Souls

[Verse 1] I'm a dissident; I say what we say is true It's not, but we avow our sins We saw it as the creed; I'm an alien hiding Among the worker bees [Pre-Chorus] The story's told We'll be rats in a fight I see in time We are dead before we die [Chorus] Well, they make the laws to keep control But in the end, I'll join the line of dead souls [Verse 2] The shrink explains: I'm dysfunctional or ill Just by some other name I'm not cut out for this role And in the end, I join the line of dead souls [Pre-Chorus] Because those died without ever living We only take what we are given [Chorus] It was rushing by, everyone's on the run And I pass the time in the line of dead souls [Chorus] Well, they make the laws to keep control But in the end, I'll join the line of dead souls
