Overkill
They Eat Their Young
[Verse 1]
I feel responsibility
To hate what I can't eat
A sack full of hissin' snakes
Layin' at my feet
I see colors that don't exist
Feel pain that isn't mine
Gone from dirt to mud
Gone from mud to slime
[Pre-Chorus]
When you're ready to come home
When you've had enough
When you're standing all alone
You know I'll be waiting here
[Verse 2]
There's pride in what you call yourself
But then, what's in a name?
I feel responsibility
To hate and pass the blame
No, no, no security
They'll beat you with a stick
I feel responsibility
To hate what makes me sick
[Pre-Chorus]
When you're ready to come home
If you've had enough
I know you're standing all alone
Yeah, I'm still waiting here
[Chorus]
They eat their young
They eat their young
Without question
They eat their young
They eat their young
Can't be done all by myself
Send help
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
I feel responsibility
To hate what I can't eat
And I feel no security
Just standing on my feet
I see colors that don't exist
The pain, it's all mine
Gone from dirt to mud
Living in the slime
[Pre-Chorus]
When you're ready to come home
I know you've had enough
When you're standing all alone
You know I'm still waiting here
[Chorus]
They eat their young
They eat their young
Without question
They eat their young
They eat their young
Can't be done all by myself
Send help
[Outro]
They eat their young
They eat their young
They eat their young
