Survivalist

Never go down in a hail of bullets.
Mark the trees and join the game.
This trail has a high percent rate for failure.
Don’t die in the woods alone of shame.

Survivalist knows
There’s only one exit
Get by on nothing
But berries and rage
Nothing but berries and rage

Find the devil in the militia.
Make your bones in a field of knowing.
Everyone else ran out on you.
Deep inside, the circuits are glowing.

Survivalist knows
There’s only one exit
Get by on nothing
But berries and rage
Nothing but berries and rage

(repeat chorus)
