[Intro: Daron Malakian & Serj Tankian]
Breathing each other's lives
Holding this in mind
That if we fall, we all fall
And we fall alone
[Verse 1: Serj Tankian]
The cold insincerity of steel machines
Have consumed our euphoria
Transforming us into muted dreams
Dreaming of the day that
[Chorus: Serj Tankian]
We attack, attack, attack your fetal servitude
We attack, attack, attack, attack with pesticide
We attack, all the years of propaganda
We shall attack
[Verse 2: Serj Tankian]
Books illustrate what we already know
Candles cry towards the sky
Raising your flags along polluted coast
Dreaming of the day that
[Chorus: Serj Tankian]
We attack, attack, attack your fetal servitude
We attack, attack, attack, attack with pesticide
We attack, all the years of propaganda
We shall attack
Breathing each other's lives
Holding this in mind
That if we fall, we all fall
And we fall alone
[Verse 1: Serj Tankian]
The cold insincerity of steel machines
Have consumed our euphoria
Transforming us into muted dreams
Dreaming of the day that
[Chorus: Serj Tankian]
We attack, attack, attack your fetal servitude
We attack, attack, attack, attack with pesticide
We attack, all the years of propaganda
We shall attack
[Verse 2: Serj Tankian]
Books illustrate what we already know
Candles cry towards the sky
Raising your flags along polluted coast
Dreaming of the day that
[Chorus: Serj Tankian]
We attack, attack, attack your fetal servitude
We attack, attack, attack, attack with pesticide
We attack, all the years of propaganda
We shall attack
[Post-Chorus: Serj Tankian]
Attack
Attack
[Bridge: Daron Malakian with Serj Tankian]
Breathing each other's lives
Holding this in mind
That if we fall, we all fall
And we fall alone
Breathing each other's lives
Holding this in mind
That if we fall, we all fall
And we fall alone
[Verse 3: Serj Tankian]
What's the philosophy of displaced mines?
The bombing of all homes and villages
Truth is the only sword bleeding minds
Bleeding 'til the day that
[Chorus: Serj Tankian]
We attack, attack, attack your fetal servitude
We attack, attack, attack, attack with pesticide
We attack, all the years of propaganda
We shall attack
Attack
Attack
[Bridge: Daron Malakian with Serj Tankian]
Breathing each other's lives
Holding this in mind
That if we fall, we all fall
And we fall alone
Breathing each other's lives
Holding this in mind
That if we fall, we all fall
And we fall alone
[Verse 3: Serj Tankian]
What's the philosophy of displaced mines?
The bombing of all homes and villages
Truth is the only sword bleeding minds
Bleeding 'til the day that
[Chorus: Serj Tankian]
We attack, attack, attack your fetal servitude
We attack, attack, attack, attack with pesticide
We attack, all the years of propaganda
We shall attack
About
Genius Annotation
“Attack” starts off Hypnotize with a bang—some would argue the song attacks your ears. The track is sonically the polar opposite of its sister album, Mezmerize’s intro “Soldier Side.” Where Mezmerize ends somberly with the line, ‘You should have never trusted Hollywood,’ “Attack” startles you into the reality you’re faced with now that you’re in Hollywood.
