More Than This Songtext
von Choke Me

For us it′s permanent
It's permanent

Head first, blinded by endless greed
Nothing beyond what they can see
Short term, only think of today
Fuck tomorrow when you already have everything

Running out of time, stuck in the past on the same loop
We′re out of time, the world is dying while we watch the news

When the waters rise they will be buried six feet below
Set another fire as their legacy unfolds

Poisoned by our inheritance
Their life at our expense

There has to be something more than this

For us it's all we've known
The death of our home

Jump first, never look or think twice
Their will, gifted by the divine
Destroy anything in the way
Entitled to a lifestyle we maintain


Running out of time, treating a gunshot with a band aid
We′re out of time, what′s gonna be left to save

When the waters rise they will be buried six feet below
Set another fire as their legacy unfolds

Poisoned by our inheritance
Their life at our expense

There has to be something more than this

What they don't teach, the unspoken truth
We′re past the tipping point we're killing our food
Everything comes with a hidden cost
Our comfort at another′s loss
Everything comes at a cost

When we run out of air to breath
When there's no water left to drink
When hell swallows us whole
There′s not enough money to buy a soul
Run from fires that continue to burn
Homelessness dependent on what I earn
There's a value placed on your life
We're worth the same dead or alive


If you stop you′re expendable
This endless loop never stops

As we consume, we seal our doom
Something more than this
The ethics of putting us above
Something more than this
We need a change, what we became
Something more than this
Just light the match
Then we start from scratch
Something more than this
