Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Rather be dead
Than alive by your oppression
Rather be dead
Than alive by your design
[Verse 2]
Poisoned my fingers
Burned out my eyes
Take out my throat
To be alive
[Verse 3]
Rather be dead
Than alive by social values
Rather be dead
Than alive by your tradition
[Verse 4]
Poisoned my fingers
Burned out my eyes
Take out my throat
To be alive
[Verse 5]
Rather be alive
Rather be alive
Rather be alive
Rather be alive
[Verse 6]
Rather be alive, rather be alive, rather be
Rather be alive, rather be alive, rather be
Rather be alive
Rather be alive
[Verse 7]
Poisoned my fingers
Burned out my eyes
Take out my throat
Written by: David Sandström, Dennis Lyxzén, Jon Brännström, Kristofer Steen
