John Sykes - One Way System Lyrics

Still standing toxified
24-7 flying high
You know the word is out
It's a sucide
You're gonna blow yourself away
A cruel world gonna make you fight
You better be strong or you won't survive
Cause the concrete jungle way or life
You're either predator or prey

You're still running wild and telling lies
Who wants to live forever now
Oh life's a joke
You're stoned you're broke
Who cares
Let's burn this mother to the ground

But that road you're rolling on
Slipping down fast
You're loaded complication
Degradation slowly steal your soul away
Hard times are rolling
Will you live or will you fade
Come inside to meet the dead who've paid

Caught in a one way system
A one way system i said a one way system
Yeah and you're up next baby

Fever's got you down
You don't know how you're gonna make it through your day
Oh call the folks
You pull the hoax
The money's wired down the fastest way

Mind blowing you're holding on
Slipping down fast
You're loaded complication
Degradation slowly steal your soul away
Hard times are rolling
Will you live or will you fade
Come inside to meet the dead who've paid

Caught in a one way system
A one way system i said a one way system

Tides are turning fast
There's a hurricane coming
And you better start running
Gonna cut you down fast

(solo)

Still standing toxified
24-7 flying high
You know the word is out
It's a sucide
You're gonna blow yourself away
A cruel world gonna make you fight
You better be strong or you won't survive
Cause the concrete jungle way or life
You're either predator or prey

Self intoxicate
You rearrange your head to deal with what's up now
Oh slightly not quite straight
Your medication eases pain but leave you down

Mind blowing you're holding on
Slipping down fast
You're loaded complication
Degradation slowly steal your soul away
Hard times are rolling
Will you live or will you fade
Come inside to meet the dead who've paid

Caught in a one way system
A one way system
Caught in a one way system
A one way system
Caught in a one way system

Still standing toxified
24-7 flying high
You know the word is out
It's a sucide
You're gonna blow yourself away
A cruel world gonna make you fight
You better be strong or you won't survive
Cause the concrete jungle way or life
I said i can't take no more
