They keep us alive,
and if they're not good enough...
they will kill us;
just like a heartbeat of zero.

They set our dates
for the new life inside of us.
The time kills us
when that accident finds us.

They make us go insane
when the number on the scale
just isn't low enough.
The world kills us with numbers.

"Just 10 more pounds!"
they scream at us.
When will it end..?
When will they be the last 10?

Numbers keep us living,
and numbers slowly kill us.
They bring us to insanity...
so when will we fight back?

Don't step on it...it makes you cry Pictures, Images and Photos
