Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Our lives run different ways
Through the rain, I see you in the sun
Our star shines anyway
If you wish upon it, we are one
[PreChorus]
One, two, three, four
[Chorus]
Dog eat dog, every day
On our fellow man we prey
Dog eat dog to get by
Hope you like my genocide, oh
[Verse 2]
I find it such a shame
Through the pain I see things as they are
We're served up on a plate
Pedestal is high enough to fall
And if in time, we can see the errors of our ways
Would anyone change it anyhow?
[PreChorus]
Our time is up
One, two, three, four
[Chorus]
Dog eat dog, every day
On our fellow man we prey
Dog eat dog to get by
Hope you like my genocide
Dog eat dog, every day
On our fellow man we prey
Dog eat dog to get by
Hope you like my genocide
[Bridge]
I bet you'd only run
If you saw what goes inside our own
I bet you lead the way
If it were up to you to decide but it's not
[Chorus]
Dog eat dog, every day
On our fellow man, we prey
Dog eat dog to get by
Hope you like my genocide
Dog eat dog, every day
On our fellow man, we prey
Dog eat dog to get by
Hope you like my genocide
[Outro]
Like a silver flame
Like suicide
Like giving more
One, two, three, four
[Outro]
Mmm, I especially enjoyed that one, let's see what's next
