"W.a.s.t.e.d..S.o.u.l.s"

I know it's your body
But now it's not yours alone
I don't care what you call me
Murder is murder don't you know?

I know it's your vessel
And so I guess it's all excused
So whispered a little devil
"It's your right to choose..."

What about the wasted souls
The cast away, the ones without a voice
One point one million a year
Trashed like waste, the ones without a choice

I know it's your decision
After all the one within can't argue
It's not about religion
These arguments are true

What about the wasted souls
The cast away, the ones without a voice
One point one million a year
Trashed like waste, the ones without a choice

I can understand medical necessity
What I can't understand is when it's for vanity
And all I get from you is levity
It's time we put a stop to all of the insanity

What about the wasted souls
The cast away, the ones without a voice
One point one million a year
Trashed like waste, the ones without a choice

What about the ones
Without A Voice?!!
What about the ones
Without A Choice?!!

Wow.....this is really thought-provoking.....and by that I'm saying it's really great. I'm not even trying to set it to music, this is like something from a CD sleeve that contains the lyrics of all of the songs and while you're listening to the music you just keep going back and reading all of the lyrics all over again. I haven't commented more than once or twice on your lyrics BinB, but I've read a lot and this is my personal favorite. Content as well as mechanics, I didn't stumble for a second anywhere at all, it's written so well.

Now with all of that said I think I can hear Queensryche doing this. ?

Thank you Teshka, I appreciate your comment. Certainly I could hear Queensryche doing this. Not the new Queensryche but with Geoff Tate, not Todd La Torre.

I totally agree. It seems like all of the 'old masters' of s.metal are fading away.

Some pretty dark lyrics on this forum!

@Teshka, I agree. @Jim... Yes. Dark but true. I felt it needed to be said.
