Our course is our own, I know we're to blame   We're born into shame, to live in despair      I feel such pity for what we've become   Our needs and desires...our weakness, our pain      Our need to fulfil, the urges we feel   It weakens our will, it brings us great pain      A flood of hatred surges inside   Control it, deny it...let it run free      I can't run away...I can't hide from myself   It is what I am...it is what we are      Do you think you are the chose   Do you think you are the few   Look around and see...pathetic human beasts   We have written our own ending      How can we live with ourselves   Our jealousy, our tyranny   The lives we make, the lives we take   The fools we serve, the fools we are      Brazen in our final days   Our time on top is near on end   It's clear to me we'll never change   It's clear that I will never change   The tragedy of life we live   The tragedy of life we'll see   We call it human nature   The seducer of mankind      Our course is our own, I know we're to blame   We're born into shame, to live in despair   A flood of hatred surges inside   Control it, deny it...let it run free      I can't run away...I can't hide from myself   It is what I am...it is what we are   Look around and see...pathetic human beasts   We have written our own ending      How can we live with ourselves   Our jealousy, our tyranny   The lives we make, the lives we take   The fools we serve, the fools we are
