Badlands
02:45
|
|||
Scaremongerers at our throats.
Politicians tying ropes.
Freedom's song is so far gone.
We've been deceived all along.
Bastards!
Sons of Sam.
Why should we care if we are not the same?
Why can't we fight if you place the blame?
Women scream. Kids naive.
Fathers fight. Brothers die.
Endless war. No remorse.
In this game no one scores.
Equal rights quickly died.
All a plan. Sick of lies.
Twisted leaders. Bottom feeders.
Always praying on the weak.
Bastards!
Sons of Sam.
Why should we care if we are not the same?
Why can't we fight if you place the blame?

Dirty Deeds
01:16
|
|||
Greedy puppets.
Lying snakes.
Corporate slackers.
Local fakes.
Dirty deeds.
Planting seeds at the feet of our enemies.
Now we're all miserable.
They keep killing our own.
Now we're all miserable.
Bloody hands to our throats.
Melting beams.
Blowing steam.
Killing dreams.
Mercy please.
Bury me in the sea.
Now we're all miserable.
This broken world is our home.

Detriment
02:13
|
|||
Bad decisions. Mangled mess.
Blurry vision. Walking wreck.
Darker clouds. Hollow ground.
No such thing as safe and sound.
Dealt a hand of shit and then I'm labeled fucking sick.
Got these voices in my head who'd rather see me dead. Instead I'd rather bleed from the blade that comforts me. Tear my skin for my sins. Throw my ashes to the wind.
I've always been a detriment.
Can't you see I'm fucking spent?
Part of me just wants to die.
Sad to say it's not a lie.
Call me the lonely son.
Burden to everyone.
Don't let me wake for my soul you can take.
Leave me to rest so I can kill this feeling in my chest.

Young and Dumb
01:40
|
|||
Young scum.
Fucking up everything you do.
Your self-respect is lacking and my face is turning blue.
I tried to stay collected, but my patience never lasts.
Instead I took a chance and it just bit me in the ass.
Now I'm not made of gold.
Just saying so you know.
Bad dreams and broken homes.
I'd rather be alone.
Working from your knees screaming "spoil me".
Some love was meant to be.
Some love is misery.
I'm sick of wasting time.

Most Nights
00:56
|
|||
One mistake, more guilt to fake.
That's how the story goes.
A life shaped by disgrace.
Some things you'll never know.
Most nights I don't think twice.
I can't take my own advice.
My head's in a dangerous place.
Just one drink to ease the pain.
I can't tame the other side.
The bad days I can't hide.
Draped in shame it's all the same.
I can't breathe. Get me out of my head.
Anxiety's not new to me.
Some things I'll never show.
The part of me that used to be I broke down on my own.
Most nights I don't think twice.
I can't take my own advice.
My head's in a dangerous place.
Just one drink to ease the pain.
I can't tame the other side.
The bad days I can't hide.
Draped in shame it's all the same.
I can't breathe. Get me out of my head.

Sinking
02:10
|
|||
Burning a bridge, stuck in the dirt.
Slipping away, fighting the hurt.
Swallow the pain, nothing to gain and I'm lacking motivation.
Down in defeat, thrown on the street.
Nothing to wear, nothing to eat.
Just like the rest, lost in distress and I'm losing your attention.
I tried to save my soul.
Don't think I'm letting go.
I'm giving up on hope.
Starting to sink, starving for weeks.
Life of despair, life of deceit.
Swallow the pain, nothing to gain.
And I'm lacking motivation.
Ten feet of rope, hoping to choke.
No way to feel, no way to cope.
Just like the rest, lost in distress and I'm losing your attention.
Part of me gave in to lies to see what paints a broken mind.
A tattered page of black and grey and all the things I used to say.

Crash and Burn
01:11
|
|||
Tossing and turning, my lungs are hurting.
Crashing and burning, my stomach is churning.
God have mercy I'm fucking burning down.
I am burning down.
