Slowly our rights erode away
We exist only to be slaves
The hidden hand with fingers outstretched
Closes in around our necks
[Pre-chorus:]
Masses refuse to see
Kept in line as we are deceived
Minds start to atrophy
Suppress the will to be
[Chorus:]
The grip tightens around our throats
Gasping for air as we choke
A barren future, we've lost all hope
Slowly the grip tightens around our throats
[Solo: Gargiulo]
Snuffing out the air from our lungs
A horrid realization
Suffocating, as we watch our world come undone
Knowing the worst is yet to come
[Pre-chorus]
Is this our destiny?
To be enslaved endlessly
The notion of our freedom
Is a Fallacy
[Chorus]
Strangulation, we choke out (Strangulation, we choke out)
There's nothing left, there's nothing left! (There's nothing left)
Suffocating, we're breathing (Suffocating, we're breathing)
Our final breath, our final breath! (Our final breath)
[Solo: Davidson]
[Chorus]
Around our throats!
