Lower Than Atlantis
Damn Nation
[Verse 1]
Father, please, no need to preach
The words you speak are not new to me
Born and raised in yesterday
I've seen your light turned away

[Pre-Chorus 1]
You can lead a horse to water
But you can’t make it drink
You can lead your lambs to slaughter
If it’s what the shepherd thinks

[Chorus 1]
Now I’m gonna live life, love life while I’m alive
I've only got one chance this time, then it’s do or die
I don’t fear damn nation, I know what is right
I've got one life and I’m never gonna live a lie

[Verse 2]
The weak need a lie to help them see
Ancient beliefs of Christianity
What’s going on?
Don’t you know what’s right and wrong?
Do you just need somewhere to belong?

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You can lead your lambs to slaughter
If it’s what the shepherd thinks

[Chorus 2]
Live life, love life while I’m alive
I've only got one chance this time, then it’s do or die
I don’t fear damn nation, I know what is right
I've got one life and I’m never gonna live a lie

[Bridge]
Well, I don’t believe in ghosts
Jesus Christ or UFOs
No, I don’t believe in anything at all

[Chorus 2]
Live life, love life while I’m alive
I've only got one chance this time, then it’s do or die
I don’t fear damn nation, I know what is right
I've got one life and I’m never gonna live a lie

[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
No, I’m never gonna live a lie
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Whoa-oh-oh, I don’t fear damn nation, I know what is right
I've got one life and I’m never gonna live a lie
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
