(They will say that:)
We are the misunderstood
We are the unheard
We are the mistaken
We are the scourge
We are the bothered
We are the folds
We killed the bison
We never resolve
We are the cowards
We are the sheep
We are the miserable
We are asleep
We are the menace
We made the gates
We hold the keys
We keep you down
We made the kings
We praise the gods
We push the thieves
We are the hollow
We are deceased
We are forgotten
We are afraid
We talk in whispers
We are insane
We dry the tears
We are the families
We are mirrors
We made the roadblocks
We made the bridge
We create chaos
We flip the switch
We choose the cost
We hung the witch
We are the beaten
We are the beaten
Our eyes are closed (X8)

Bridges

It’s a hell in this handbasket with shadows all around for company
And I’m living in a fog
And I’ve become a mist
With loose hips and tight lips I’ll admit this shit when I’ve finished with these fits
All regrets I can’t forget because I haven’t even started yet
Spare some fare to get me to the bridge and I will plunge into the murky abyss
So fuck me and fuck this
My past mistakes are an umbilical cord to the grave
Works for me...
My chips, dashed to bits, burnt to ashes
I don’t want to play this game anymore

Demons
01:23
|
|

They’re coming back
The visions, the demons
Flying around your bed at night
You tried to explain
But they scream it’s all lies
No one hears you under the covers
Crying for your soul
They want you
They see you
United, uniting, undying
They’re ripping you down to the hell below
In the darkness below they’re
Flaying your skin
Taken you home
Your skin
Your home
You’re skin
You’re home

Ravens

I am not a jealous man
But there shall no kingdom come
These boots are meant for rest
Just a lottery expiration date
These hands are garbage
That masquerade as art, they’re all just artists
These hammers we hold
Meant for forging
Now become acts of hell apparent, repelling
And the hounds will sound the call
For they are baying for our blood
Baying for our blood

Bastards
00:42
|
|
||
They’re scum
They’re:
Just stealing for a living
No matter the homes they’re from
No sacrifice, quickest to blame
The germ of the earth
The sperm of the worst
A middle class curse
Burning what spurs
No sacrifice,
Quickest to blame
No sacrifice,
Quickest to blame

Crowns

And just like that,
I’m back to the guts and the blood
There’s a force in me that wants to feel love
But there’s pain from the past
That falls out of my heart and fills my gut.
A hundred crowns with a hundred skulls
And yet
She speaks the truth
But I can’t take it
She tells the truth
But I cannot taste it
And the more of hope I can smell the more it seems it is burning
Set fire to the banners
Here walks shame and regret
Set fire to your idols
Here walks the biggest fool yet

Apotheosis
00:59
|
|
||
Let your hell take you whole
Take your hit
Release
Let your horrors spill forth upon this putrid crust
Break into infinity, ad infinitum
|

Fences
00:37
|
|
||
It’s falling apart
A legion of living
Of clueless people on opposite sides of a fence in an obscure pasture
And I’m just sitting here chewing cud
Making mistakes like being in love
Makes me wish sometimes I wasn’t alive

Zounds
01:31
|
|
||
Trembling in your bed
No answers, no prophets
No questions, no way out
Shackled by those who have everything
Frothing at mouths that are leering
Knowing there’s no way out of this shit
Trying to explain to children while bleeding
From their
Ribs and dust
To hate and blood
The filth and lies
Before the flood
The scream of doves
The life you loved
No one above

The Joke
07:01
|
|

We’ve always known
in the darkest parts of our minds
In the deepest parts of our souls
And so we’ve always been angry
Always been angry
Always confused
Always destructive
Always short fused
This is our release
To show the world that we grew up in
How we always knew its existence is bullshit
And thus so is ours
Everything we do is suspect
Everything’s been done
This malaise of modernity
It’s killing you,
It’s killing me.
It’s killing you, it’s killing me........
