Am G
Murder lives forever
Dm
and so does war
F
It's survival of the fittest
Am
rich against the poor
G
at the end of the day
Dm
It's a human trait
F
hidden deep down inside of our DNA
Am
One man can build a bomb
G
another run a race
Dm
to save somebody's life
F
and have it blow up in his face
Am
i'm not the only one who
G
finds it hard to understand
Dm
i'm not afraid of god

i am afraid of man
Am Dm
is it running in our blood
F G
is it running in our veins
Am Dm
is it running in our genes
F G
is it in our DNA
Am Dm
Humans aren't gonna behave
F G
as we think we always should
Am Dm F G
yeah, we can be bad as we can be good
Am F G
Underneath it all we're just savages
Am F G
hidden behind shirts, ties and marriages
Am F G
How could we expect anything at all?
Dm F G
we're just animals still learning how to crawl
Am
we live, we die
G
we steal, we kill, we lie
Dm
just like animals
F
but with far less grace
Am
we laugh, we cry
G
like babies in the night
Dm
forever running wild
F
in the human race
Am G
another day, another tale of rape
Dm F
another ticking bomb to bury deep and detonate
Am G
i'm not the only one who finds it hard to understand
Dm
i'm not afraid of god
F
i'm afraid of man
Am Dm
you can see it on the news
F G
you can watch it on tv
Am Dm
you can read it on your phone
F G
you can say it's troubling

as we think we always should

Truth is in us all, cradle to the grave
Dm F
we're just animals still learning to behave
F Am
All the hate coming out from a generation
G F
who got everything + nothing guided by temptation
F Dm
were we born to abuse, shoot a gun + run
G F
or has something deep inside of us come undone?
F Am
is it a human trait or is it learned behaviour
G F
are you killing for yourself or killing for your saviour?
