Fighting Backwards

Agent Steel

Rot in cages we crouch naked

Waiting for the rest to land

Extended faith they betrayed our friendship

Imprisoned us by our own hand



Time for us to wake and rise up

May be too late but we must attack

Either that or we'll know forever

We're born cowards and we can't fight back



Prodded punctured probed and tested

Is this the way man was born to live?

Bred like cattle and raised for slaughter

Without a soul we've nothing more to give



[Chorus:]

And the war begins from behind cages

Feed no more, rot, we're useless dead



The only way to win is to starve them

The way to win is to end our lives

Our sacrifice renders our flesh useless

Our death is life for the few outside



The future for these struggling rebels

Who gather armies for the final fight

Without strength our captors weaken

We do our best to do our best and die
