Expendables lyrics
This song is a commentary on the inequality and powerlessness of some individuals in society. It speaks to the idea of being expendable, of being seen as nothing more than objects in a numbers game, with no voice or power of their own. The lyrics address the need for strength and courage to take the crown, and for an ideal, a promise and the weight of the burden to be lifted. This song speaks to the struggle for equality and justice and a desire for a better future.

In a senseless waste A parade that stretches out for days Are we ready made? Subservient pawns in a deadly game As we stand in line
And wait our turn to be shut down
What do we hope to find?
The strength, the courage to take the crownWe’re nothing, we’re nothing
We’re nothing, we’re nothing
We’re nothing but expendablesIn a numbers game
We’re ready, we’re willing to take the blame
Always the same
The boot comes down all the way
Polarizing facts
The belief to cling to all of that
I know what we lack
An ideal, a promise, the weight off our backWe’re nothing, we’re nothing
We’re nothing, we’re nothing
We’re nothing but expendables (x2)
That’s what they’re saying
We know it isn’t true
