Empty Bottle

from A New Religion by Voice Of Addiction

lyrics

Don't raise a voice of desention too loudly cuz,
You don't know who will hear you.
They've got the power and polished cars that they don't wanna give up.
Created nations and boarders and laws to keep the people seperated from each other, pit us against one another.
Put your fist in the air and declare that you've had enough!

I didn't like the later editions, used different words but its the same rendition of.
Exploitation of the lower class, it widens the gap between us and them.
Where does this all begin, government religion, the web of the system no matter what we call it.
We, end up the same staring at an empty bottle wondering who to blame.
We, end up the same staring at an empty bottle wondering who to blame.
I do not think that I can even hold on
Long enough to finish writing this song, This song! This song!

Don't start a commotion cuz if it spreads you know the police are coming.
With their tear gas and billy clubs to teach us a lesson.
Show authority by force show no remorse for those who fall through the cracks, they hit me in the back.
I put my fist in the air and declared that I've had enough.


I didn't like the later editions, used different words but its the same rendition of.
Exploitation of the lower class, it widens the gap between us and them.
Where does this all begin, government religion, the web of the system no matter what we call it.

We, end up the same staring at an empty bottle wondering who to blame.
We, end up the same staring at an empty bottle wondering who to blame.
I do not think that I can even hold on
Long enough to finish writing this song, This song! This song!
