Law of the (waste) land


Beware of the wasteland
'Cause it will sink you down and deep into quicksand
Watch out, kill or be killed
'Cause everybody does what's right in their own eyes
Back off
It's dog eat dog
When you're living in the dark
Wasteland
Running for your life

It's time to break it down
Another victim of the thoughtless
Self-defining truths that we throw around
Another victim for the lawless
We play judge, jury, executioner
Watch out, kill or be killed
'Cause everybody does what's right in their own eyes
Beware of the wasteland 'cause it's coming for your life

Woo
Law for the lawless world

Pray on the weak
Tear their flesh from their broken bones
Eye for an eye
Tooth for tooth
Sleep with one eye open

Wasteland
Running your life

Just take a look around: it is survival of the fittest
Waiting for their chance to put you in the ground
Everybody's got their hit list
We play judge, jury, executioner
Heads up, vultures surround
'Cause everybody does what's right for their own lives
Beware of the wasteland 'cause it's coming for your life

While living our lives so careless and heartless (Heartless)
There won't be a rest from all of this carnage (Carnage)
(The law of the wasteland)
Can't wash the blood off my hands

When our love is so loveless
But we blame You for our own mess
All our gods are godless (Our gods are godless)
All our lives are lifeless (Our lives are lifeless)
While playing the judge and the jury and executioner

(Why?)
It's just so dangerous
(Why?) Why? Why?
Why do we live like this?

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
