Misery Index - Defector (Thining The Herd) Lyrics

Send "Defector (Thining The Herd)" ringtone to your cell

The heard grows thin

Your father was a scorn-filled alcoholic cop,

And mother wasn't far behind

You were ripe for the adverse running,

And so ready to defy the right

Your fashion was the anti-fashion approved,

Your music was the latest whatever-core trend

A tattooed body with a mind for rent,

An adolescent iconoclast

Fall Into the ranks aligned,

Cattle-pressed pushed to the left

So anti-this and anti-that,

That somewhere along the way you forgot to laugh

Taking every cause you could champion,

You were an overnight political machine

You carried forth the flag of your elders,

And quoted Marx for the class-bound breed

Throwing rocks through the corporate windows,

Great destroyer of the economic lie

You got one more year for the oppressed,

And a lifetime to be all you once despised

With career opportunities,

The tidal waves of pressure mount

Reality is one hard blow,

So you gave back your 'scene card' and checked out

You had a dream once,

But now it's sold -assets, equity, financial gain?

All of your protests, all of the unrest, g

One like a song, never to be heard again

Dead end workdays?

Remember what you HOPED,

What you always THOUGHT you'd be?

How does it feel to reject it, walk away, then run?

To turn your back and trample all of them into the ground?

Birth begets life begets death
