Down by Law - Self-Destruction lyrics

You say you've got it all figured out

you live life without a doubt

you say you're looking for something deeper

but I can't sit here watching

I won't march in time to the tune of self destruction

"well I think it's time to make it on my own

I'm gonna live life all alone"

well open your eyes, and I'll show you a big surprise

nobody makes it on their own

nothing is ever gonna change, you say

and there's no way you'll every leav this code you follow today

you say your rules are something deeper

but I see lies, and they're getting deeper

you say everything else means nothing

but I can't sit here watching

I won't march in time to the tune of self destruction

you say you've got it all figured out

I'm a bit wary of those who don't see a shadow of a doubt

come see me in 20 years, and I'll show you a host of change

in the end, your inner spirit is all that will remain

you say everything means nothing - but I won't sit here watching

I won't march in time to the tune of self-destruction
