Us
they are above us
looking down on us
all around us
what surrounds us
study and send us
break and bend us
can't rid us
of ourselves
they forgive us
but can fix us
We wage war
and torture
our own
don't pity the whore
that we have worn
dirty mongrel
but in the mirror
we only see ourselves
out worst enemy
What have we done to we
can't believe that we've
fallen into our own trap
its time to relapse
and again we collapse
the great eraser
we are own maker
we are all takers
let us begin testing limits again
our enemies
our friends
it's all just us
in the end
kill us
build us
take us
from us
forgive us
begin us
to defend us
but for us
to beat us
we have to be them
sincerely us
