Everybody wants a little piece of the tragedy

The blood you bleed is the lifeblood of the industry

Make another martyr out of all the poor and and victimized

To keep the cycle of abuse around the world alive

The cuts and bruises are held under the microscope

The cuts and bruises are the evidence of dying hope

All the little pieces are so razor sharp and jagged edged

To reassemble is to separate bone and flesh

You will not see the link between the suffering

And little Nazis who pull the levers and strings

And all across the world, another flag unfurled

The shadow spreads like fire through every screen and wire

And all across the world, another flag unfurled

The shadow spreads like fire through every screen and wire

Everybody needs a little taste of authority

You'll get your bitter little sample just the same as me

The only difference is how we choose to handle it

You swallow for the greater good while I will take my aim and spit

Right in the face of modern twisted common sense

Right in the face of all the ladies and gents

Who take advantage of every shock and every tear

Then tighten up their strangle hold more year by year

You will not see the link between the suffering

And little Nazis who pull the levers and strings

One by one, manipulate

Twist reality to get anything they want

And all across the world, another flag unfurled

The shadow spreads like fire through every screen and wire

And all across the world, another flag unfurled

The shadow spreads like fire through every screen and wire

One by one, manipulate

Twist reality to get anything they want
