Well I've been convicted with and without reason
Tarred and feathered like a piper on a killing spree
And felt the anger of generations
And been the target for the cheap shots of authoritySo you think you cut me down to size
Well there's something you should realize
It's gonna take more than a break in the law
To make me smile pretty for the wrecking ballWon't beg, won't bleed
The end of sacrifice is a threat to society
Hard line, you'll see
Once you've made your mark, you've made a threat to societyI wasn't put here to be treated
Like some disease you hoped would go away if left alone
Yeah, you can sweep me under the carpet
But I'll still infect your need to use me as a stepping stoneSo you think you cut me down to size
Well there's something you should realize
It's gonna take more than a break in the law
To make me smile pretty for the wrecking ballWon't beg, won't bleed
The end of sacrifice is a threat to society
Hard line, you'll see
Once you've made your mark, you've made a threat to societyOh, yeah
So you think you cut me down to size
Well there's something you should realize
It's gonna take more than a break in the law
To make me smile pretty for the wrecking ballWon't beg, won't bleed
The end of sacrifice is a threat to society
Hard line, hard line, you'll see
Once you've made your mark, you've made a threat to societyWon't beg, won't beg, won't bleed
The end of sacrifice is a threat, a threat
Hard line, hard line, you'll see
Once you've made your mark, you've made a threat to society
