Bring Me Your Love
01:30
|

bring me your love
i’ll bring you mine
it’s a guillotine
gallows high
serpent roar
a last gasp
we’re all voyeurs here
no last laugh
i guess this sense of violence
is so innate that it’ll have to stay
it’s the same savagery day after day
with stakes this low
i’d be amazed if anyone rode away
on some grandiose wave, shallow and naive

vulnerable in this cracked shell
i’m tired of waiting, i’m ready for hell
but that’s not how this works
they’ll make you wait
they’ll let you bleed
and when they see that you’re weak
then they’ll strike first
cos it’s you who caused this doubt in me
and when you’re suffocating
in this hell you've had no hand in creating
and you beat on the walls
and scream it’s not your fault
don’t be surprised by no response
you've always been
the ground on which they walk

Long Gone
02:45
|

in this world and in
all the worlds to come
the damnable, the pigs
will find salvation
through a system of distraction
that keeps our heads in a spin
we’ll miss them as they
make their exit
it’s a sad truth but we’re long gone
and our shadow will be just as shallow as we were
it’s a sad truth but we’re long gone
our values were shaped to cause devastation
and if you’ve got a spirit left
they’ll bait it the best they can
and they’ll guide it into dark
never to be seen again
it’s a sad truth but we’re long gone
and our shadow will be just as shallow as we were
it’s a sad truth but we’re long gone
our values were shaped to cause devastation
with comfort claiming priority
and perversion pulling the reign
we’ll continue into darkness
a delusional beast
chasing custom tailored dreams
we’re short leashed and we know it
but try to make the best of it
do what you think redeems you
in the dying hours of everyday
that you’ve spent oiling
a cruel machine that will see to your end

Malcontent Degenerate
01:38
|
|||
we jump from ship to ship
only to find out
that they're all sinking
we burn every last bridge
until there's no chance
of returning
hollowed eyes, rotten mind
malcontent degenerate

My Return
01:28
|
|||
i made my return to
this home enclosed by dead trees
with a nucleus of rusted machines
where floorboards creak like bones
and wind cuts through broken screens
where i’m forever suspended
in a dreamless sleep
and when i finally awake
to face the superfluous day
my life is only mine to take
self-obsess and self-betray
je ne veux rien

This Town
01:56
|
|||
this town is a snarling hound
and you people are the teeth in its mouth
and everyone is dripping blood
this noose is just a tad bit loose
and i would tighten it if i could choose
but you tie the knots
i’m dripping sweat
a nervous wreck
all eyes are on me
and they all mirror death

Cowardice
01:11
|
|||
cocooned in delusion
that's as brittle as bones
with a bare fist
smash entitlement
you'll buckle and burn
and exude cowardice
the smoke you emit
is shameful and pungent
selfishness and cowardice
|

The Room
03:55
|
|||
i am the dry mud floor on which you sit
and i am cracked and i am dirty
but i hold you up
when you tire of your fits
i keep you in
i am the cold stone wall
on which you place your palms
against which you beat your fist
the only thing to touch your lips
i keep you in
