about

Loosely based off of Chief's perception of the world in the novel To Kill A Mockingbird

lyrics

I was once a simple man
Meeting the combine’s demands
I had only but one FAULT!
Grinding my life to a HAULT!
It was all going so great
When it began to split like slate
I could not see the TRUTH!
I had lost my sacred YOUTH!

They burst through my front door
They came down upon me
Withdrew their liquid fear
Injections make me willing
To walk the march of death
I always was compliant
Taking my final breath
I shut my eyes as I grow

Dead I am
Dead I stay
Dead it has to be this way
From their fear
From their power
Now this is my final hour

Fear Injection
Claws my eyes out
Fear Injection
Eat my heart out
Fear Injection
Tear my soul out
Fear Injection

I was once a wealthy man
Declaring the combine’s demands
Oh if I could only SEE!
The combine had no use for ME!
Anymore and so they came
The beginning of the day the same
If only I had sought ESCAPE!
If only I foresaw my FATE!

They burst through my front door
They came down upon me
Withdrew their liquid fear
Injections make me willing
To walk the march of death
I always was compliant
Taking my final breath
I shut my eyes as I grow

Dead I am
Dead I stay
Dead it has to be this way
From their fear
From their power
Now this is my final hour

Fear Injection
Claws my eyes out
Fear Injection
Eat my heart out
Fear Injection
Tear my soul out
Fear Injection

I was once a free man
Living free by my own strong hand
I had all I could need
Yet I couldn’t resist the combine’s feed
Taking fear with such stride
I have not long before I die
They are looking, they see
I can feel their needle’s in me

I was once a simple gear
Turning the great wheel of fear
It was such a simple THRILL!
When it was my turn to KILL!
But then I was replaced
I was old and out of date
The molten and searing FLAMES!
I will never be the SAME!

They burst through my front door
They came down upon me
Withdrew their liquid fear
Injections make me willing
To walk the march of death
I always was compliant
Taking my final breath
I shut my eyes as I grow

Dead I am
Dead I stay
Dead it has to be this way
From their fear
From their power
Now this is my final hour
Post-Chorus
Fear Injection
Claws my eyes out
Fear Injection
Eat my heart out
Fear Injection
Tear my soul out
Fear Injection

I was once a simple man
