Lyrics

[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
