Song For The Underling

Head pushed down with shifty eyes
We drink to a binge because we miss our lives
We sway when we walk with untended choices
Assurance when we talk, regret in our voices

I couldn't give you a reason for you to stay
It's the plight of the man, we need a reason to die
You give me no option, I'll take this to the grave
It's a hope for the next life this world never gives way

For a drink and your time he would spend last dime
Trade a loose woman's smile for a moment to forget
Submerged in decay while the lust runs wild
We'll screw out the past and feed your regret

He'll give you a reason to make you wanna stay
Where's the moral connection? We need no reason to lie
You give me no option, I'll take this to the grave
It's a hope for the next life this world never gives way

Head to the wall with bloodshot eyes
He sleeps all day 'cause he hates your lives
A creepy little walk, don't care what your choice is
There's a knife in your side while the tensions run high

He'll give you a reason to make you wanna live
It's the fight of your life, here is your reason to die
You give me no option, I'll take this to the grave
There's a hope for this next life this world never gave me
