Lyrics

Shut Down The System
By Dean Holtermann\ Shannon Conley

my mouth is dry, my eyes are burning
reality takes it's tumble , tossing me at every turn
it's a reckless feeling , that sends me reeling,
the pressures building but my mind ain't willing
what's it gonna take,everyday it's all the same
SHUT DOWN THE SYSTEM
TURN OUT THE LIGHTS
CLOCK KEEPS ON TICKING
KEEPS ME AWAKE AT NIGHT

it seems like every single day , I'm a dime short of survival
where theres a will theres a way , to a spiritual revival
I work all day , for the lifelong conclusion,
yeah I'm enslaved to my nightime retribution
what's it gonna take, everyday it's all the same
SHUT DOWN THE SYSTEM
TURN OUT THE LIGHT
CLOCK KEEPS ON TICKING
THERE'LL BE NO PEACE TONIGHT
[till ya [ SHUTDOWN THE SYSTEM
TURN OUT THE LIGHTS
CLOCK KEEPS ON TICKING
THERE'LL BE NO PEACE TONIGHT
[till ya ] SHUTDOWN
whats it gonna take, what's it gonna take
What's it gonna take ,everyday it's all the same
SHUT DOWN THE SYSTEM
TURN OUT THE LIGHT
CLOCK KEEPS ON TICKING
THERE'LL BE NO PEACE TONIGHT
[till ya [ SHUTDOWN THE SYSTEM
TURN OUT THE LIGHTS
CLOCK KEEPS ON TICKING
THERE'LL BE NO PEACE TONIGHT
[till ya [ SHUTDOWN THE SYSTEM
TURN OUT THE LIGHTS
CLOCK KEEPS ON TICKING
THERE'LL BE NO PEACE TONIGHT
[till ya [ SHUTDOWN THE SYSTEM [ 4X ]
