This is the year 
Where hope fails you 
The test subjects run the experiment 
And the bastards you know 
Is the hero you hate 
But cohesing is possible if we try 
There's no reason 
There's no lesson 
No time like the present 
Tell me right now 
What have you got to lose? 
What have you got to lose? 
Except your soul 
Who's with us? 

(verse)
I fight, for the unconventional 
I write, and it's unconditional 
I can only, be as real as I can 
I didn't finish this, I never knew the plan 
This isn't, the way to be a martyr 
I can't, walk alone any longer 
I fight, for the ones who can't fight 
And if I lose then at least I tried 

(chorus)
We, we are the new diabolic 
We, we are the bitter bucolic 
If I have to give my life, you can have it 
We, we are the pulse of the maggots 

(verse)
I won't 
Be the inconsequential 
I won't 
Be the wasted potential 
I can make it 
As severe as I can 
Until you realize you'll never take us down 
It isn't 
Just a one sided vision 
We dealt 
With a man as efficient 
I won't 
Let the truth be perverted 
And now I'll leave another victim deserted 

(chorus)
We, we are the new diabolic 
We, we are the bitter bucolic 
If I have to give my life, you can have it 
We, we are the pulse of the maggots 

(bridge)
Say it again, Say it again 
(One more time) 
Say it again, Say it again 
(We won't die) 
Say it again, Say it again 
(We won't die) 
Say it again, Say it again 
(One more time) 
Say it again, Say it again 
(We won't die) 
Say it again, Say it again 
(We won't die) 

(verse)
We fight 
But no one can fight us 
We live 
And no one can stop us 
We pout 
But we're much too far 
And the advantage is 
The bad alliance 
We never 
Got to decide in the first place 
We only 
Get to spit back in their face 
We won't 
Walk alone any longer 
What doesn't kill us only makes us stronger 

(chorus)
We, we are the new diabolic 
We, we are the bitter bucolic 
If I have to give my life, you can have it 
We, we are the pulse of the maggots 

(bridge)
Say it again, Say it again 
(One more time) 
Say it again, Say it again 
(We won't die) 
Say it again, Say it again 
(We won't die)
