System of a Down

Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

–[?]'s grace
Sitting in my room, they come to my door
Is there a reason to be or else think like me?
And hear the people around that are known to be found
Being embraced out of President's greed
And then nothing can see me
Hold me 'round the throat when I said guilt
Hold me 'round the throat when I said guilt
Hold me 'round the throat when I said guilt
Guilt? Guilt? Guilt? Guilt!
You flake! You flake! You're just a fucking flake
You flake! You flake! You're just a fucking flake
You flake! You flake! You're just a fucking flake
You flake!
The pulse of a bright darkness
Speaks of a man's soul
Kneel to the killing by me
Bow down to the governor of all
Listening to freedom, do another disgrace
When I fear that the president beats men
Listening to freedom, do another disgrace
When I fear that the president beats men
Hold me 'round the throat when I said guilt
Hold me 'round the throat when I said guilt
Hold me 'round the throat when I said guilt
Guilt? Guilt? Guilt? Guilt!
You flake! You flake! You're just a fucking flake
You flake! You flake! You're just a fucking flake
You flake! You flake! You're just a fucking flake
You flake!
Feel like a grey sick blind dog, feel I can't see you in here
Feel like a grey sick blind dog, feel I can't see you when I'm here
You flake! You flake! You're just a fucking flake
You flake! You flake! You're just a fucking flake
You flake! You flake! You flake! You flake!
You flake! You flake! You flake! You flake!
