Wasteland Lyrics

I'm not buyin' it
No not a word that you say
I'm not tryin' it
Not gonna make that mistake
'Cause you're screaming at me to believe in your dreams
But I won't 'cause it's bodies that they're built on

Wasteland
Your kingdom of misery
Shackles all around
Like asking for tyranny (tyranny)

I'm not lying when
I say your rage is a joke
I'm not tying it
But I would sell you the rope
Won't account for the doubt, that's not what it's about
Still I won't 'cause it's bodies that they're built on

Wasteland
Your kingdom of misery
Shackles all around
Like asking for tyranny (tyranny)

A hundred million dead prove you're wrong, they're screaming
A hundred million dead prove you're wrong, they're screaming

Wasteland
Your kingdom of misery
Shackles all around
Like asking for tyranny (tyranny)

A hundred million dead
A hundred million dead
A hundred million dead prove you're wrong, they're screaming
