Naturally Replaceable
Sleep refuses to come
When you’re in the sights of a gun
Your eyes open just a crack
When no one has your back
Tombstones take hold of the reigns
We have nothing but false claims
Bodies fuel the empty fields
Nothing matters but human yields
So much wasted potential
I hope they weren’t essential
It’s ok we’ll find a replacement
Just a minor debasement
We can toy with our creations
Find some sort of relation
It’s fine if it has a different name
When they all look just the same
