Desertion,
preservation.
Condemnation,
annihilation.

Chorus: Sentenced to survive.
Ordered to die.
Denied to live.
Forbidden to lie.

No self-control.
Beaten to the bone.
Never allowed to console
or learn of the unknown.

(chorus)

Outcast of society.
Chained down for their torment.
Eternal anxiety.
Abused to no extent.

(chorus)

Hated for existing.
Shot for retreating.
Mind forever twisting.
Taken countless beatings.

(chorus)

Someone please tell me why.
What sinful act was done?
What Satanic message did I ever imply?
Just tell me…

Why I’ve been…sentenced to survive...
