What Gives You The Right

The pain of yesterday is a permanent memory
I wake up and no one's here, maybe today I'm free
Then I see a shadow across the pale and sterile room
As it moves closer my body feels impending doom

So I say
What gives you the right
Just because you have a thumb
You plan your fucking day
What makes you think you're so special

You take it all
You take, there's nothing left now

The shadow soon takes form, his body touches mine
I'm tortured for one more day, I'm tortured for all mankind
They say I'm a vehicle for saving others lives
But death is the price I pay
They say their lives' worth more than mine

But I say
What gives you the right
Just because you walk on two legs
Further to the ground
It's further when your head's in the clouds

You take it all
Don't take away our future

After the experiment I'm still strapped to this metal bed
They want to play God
But if there was God then I'd be dead
If there was God then I'd be dead

What gives you the right
To fuck with something so pure and simple
They will always be right
They only take just what they need

Don't take it all
Don't take away our future

What gives you the right?
What gives you the right?
What gives you the right?
What gives you the right?
