Trifecta
Dead Behind The Eyes
Dead behind the eyes A plastic smile of lies Dead behind the eyes Makeup and bruised thighs
Another two pump chump A shudder and a slump Every tip is a gamble Feed the monthly scramble
Didn’t plan to do this alone Didn’t plan to be a crone Feed the monthly scramble The goalposts shift again Just until when?
Dead behind the eyes A plastic smile of lies Dead behind the eyes Makeup and bruised thighs
It will be worth it in the end But is it worth what you spend
A husk with decaying dreams Waiting until death intervenes
Dead behind the eyes
Dead behind the eyes A plastic smile of lie Dead behind the eyes Makeup and bruised thighs
It Is What It Is
It is what it is You can’t fight it It is what it is Will win despite it It is what it is Move on, move up It is what it is Move on, move up
You can’t fight a raging river (Be calm, let it flow around) You can’t always be a winner (Be firm, stand your ground) Rabid dogs barking Yapping and snarling Block the mocking Public flogging
It is what it is You can’t fight it It is what it is Will win despite it It is what it is Move on, move up It is what it is Move on, move up
Time spent worrying (Be calm, let it flow around) Time wasted freaking (Be firm, stand your ground) The hourglass is naked How many grains are wasted (Block the mocking public flogging)
You will
You will get past this (Be calm, let it flow around) Those nagging doubts dismiss (Be firm, stand your ground) Small people with big mouths You will get past this (Block the mocking public flogging)
It is what it is You can’t fight it It is what it is Will win despite it It is what it is Move on, move up It is what it is Move on, move up
Respect
It’s easy to trick the dull masses Your empty promises taste of ashes We see through your cheap propaganda Refuse to parrot your hateful mantra
You can’t buy respect Your lies have no effect You can’t buy respect Your lies have no effect
Your tarnished legacy is toxic poison Deception, theft and dollar store treason The admiration you desperately seek Washed away by the lies you speak
You can’t buy respect Your lies have no effect You can’t buy respect Your lies have no effect
History is no longer written by the winners The truth will be freed by our endless whispers The thing you crave most you will never obtain Bought bots and farms can’t hide our distain
You can’t buy respect Your lies have no effect You can’t buy respect Your lies have no effect
Once you are gone the pathetic truth will out Even your fanboys will have no doubt All NDA’s and promises flouted Your most shameful secrets quickly touted
Gone
Mud and dead branches Blood and no more chances Fueled by adrenalin and fear
A difficult choice, fight or they die How many orders can I defy Trading my life for my family They will say I fought valiantly
They promised more than we got Huddled and broken is a squad Ill equipped, but not for long No one knows where I have gone
A difficult choice, fight or they die How many orders can I defy Trading my life for my family They will say I fought valiantly
I don’t recognize the plants Far away in foreign lands I don’t want to kill anyone That kid is someone’s grandson
I am the only one that’s left now They are all fertilizer for the plough When they find me it’s over
A difficult choice, fight or they die How many orders can I defy Trading my life for my family They will say I fought valiantly
I didnt want to be a soldier
Beast
The black dog bites when you least expect Why do so many of us suffer from this defect No matter how well all the good things go That black cloud festers and will steadily grow
The thief of sleep, murderer of contentment Beast Bringer of self doubt, sadness and resentment Beast The thief of sleep, murderer of contentment Beast Bringer of self doubt, sadness and resentment Beast
Countless bright stars were snuffed out with this sickness Our friends don’t counter it, nor fame or richness No terror greater than to be alone with our thoughts
Endless medical progress, but the cure to this is unknown Endless medical progress, but the cure to this is unknown Endless medical progress, but the cure to this is unknown Endless medical progress, but the cure to this is unknown
Time is the only solution that always works We push on through it, knowing it’s one of our quirks
The thief of sleep, murderer of contentment Beast Bringer of self doubt, sadness and resentment Beast The thief of sleep, murderer of contentment Beast Bringer of self doubt, sadness and resentment Beast
It feels never ending when we are deep in that hole We focus on the dirt and don’t make the ladder our goal It’s the biggest club on earth, yet we all feel so alone
Endless medical progress, but the cure to this is unknown Endless medical progress, but the cure to this is unknown Endless medical progress, but the cure to this is unknown
The one thing we all know, is that it always passes So lets all swim on through the dark sticky molasses
Promises
Don’t make promises that you can’t keep Don’t change your mind and become cheap All respect for you has evaporated All your warm words were fabricated
You should have kept your mouth shut Lied for no reason, there will be blood You should have kept your mouth shut Lied for no reason, there will be blood
I didn’t start this, but I will finish it You wound me up, I won’t quit Forgiveness is fine for those that can sleep I am watching, first sign of weakness I leap I leap I leap Leap
You should have kept your mouth shut Lied for no reason, there will be blood You should have kept your mouth shut Lied for no reason, there will be blood
Suck it up Boy Suck it up Boy Suck it up Boy Suck it up Boy
You should have kept your mouth shut Lied for no reason, there will be blood You should have kept your mouth shut Lied for no reason, there will be blood
Some call me bitter, but never twice My retort is simple and always concise I don’t have old enemy’s, not even one The knot you tied cannot be undone I am a man of my word, come hell or high water I won’t back down, hesitate or falter They say revenge is a dish best served cold But I won’t give you the chance to get old
Trolls
Lonely and hateful a self inflicted sentence Picking at our scabs, searching for vengeance Lashing out, spreading their misery Standing aloof and replying bitterly
Don’t feed the trolls They thrive on attention Don’t feed the trolls They grow with contention Don’t feed the trolls They thrive on attention Don’t feed the trolls They grow with contention
It’s not edgy when you’re 40, it’s pathetic Your anecdotes land like anaesthetic
You poke until you get a reaction That’s how you get your satisfaction Every word is bitter and heartless Your hatred will die in darkness
Don’t feed the trolls They thrive on attention Don’t feed the trolls They grow with contention Don’t feed the trolls They thrive on attention Don’t feed the trolls They grow with contention
It’s not edgy when you’re 40, it’s pathetic Your anecdotes land like anaesthetic It’s not edgy when you’re 40, it’s pathetic Your anecdotes land like anaesthetic
We only smile when you leave Relief, the only thing you perceive We only smile when you leave Relief, the only thing you perceive We only smile when you leave Leave Leave Leave Leave Leave Leave I think it’s time you found the door
Drown
Turn it up, try to talk over this Your silence is my sweet bliss Knowing you hate this kind of music Makes it all the more therapeutic
Let’s drown it out Turn it up I don’t wanna hear you Let’s drown it out Turn it up I don’t wanna hear you Let’s drown it out Turn it up I don’t wanna hear you Let’s drown it out Turn it up I don’t wanna hear you
If you don’t quit spouting your crock I am gonna snap and fraggle your rock Not gonna plummet down to your level You’re always Mr Hyde, never Dr Jekyll
Let’s drown it out Turn it up I don’t wanna hear you Let’s drown it out Turn it up I don’t wanna hear you Let’s drown it out Turn it up I don’t wanna hear you Let’s drown it out Turn it up I don’t wanna hear you
They believe that butter wouldn’t melt I wish they could see the myth dispelled Ranting and raving, when will it end My hatred for you they can’t comprehend
Let’s drown it out Turn it up I don’t wanna hear you Let’s drown it out Turn it up I don’t wanna hear you Let’s drown it out Turn it up I don’t wanna hear you Let’s drown it out Turn it up I don’t wanna hear you
The truth will come out, your act exposed Throughout it all I will remain composed If only you were who you pretend to be Instead of this drunken banshee
Frauds
I understand why you fell for the pettiness Other way around maybe I would have too That doesn’t mean I enjoy the emptiness You would have thought the loyalty was a clue
I wish you all the best That your future is blessed I wish you all the best That your future is blessed
I don’t hate you for what you did I feel only deep sadness I hate them for the truth they hid And their lies full of malice
Although my hands remain clean I sometimes think dark thoughts They should have said what they had seen I wish you knew they were frauds
I wish you all the best That your future is blessed I wish you all the best That your future is blessed
I sometimes think dark thoughts I sometimes think dark thoughts
I wonder where they all went Nobody knows An accident they couldn’t prevent? Their hate will decompose.
I wish you all the best That your future is blessed I wish you all the best That your future is blessed
Think
All those years with a notch collector Do I miss our time together? Great question, I am glad you asked Clarification for the deceiver unmasked
Truth is, I don’t think about you at all Our time together didn’t exactly enthral Truth is, I don’t think about you at all
You worry these lyrics are about you Should I tell you, or leave you stew You have your suspicions, but can’t be sure Ironic you’re looking to me to reassure
Truth is, I don’t think about you at all Our time together didn’t exactly enthral Truth is, I don’t think about you at all
We have moved on, you should too Nobody cares who you’ve been through Seems so long ago now, ancient history It’s a brighter life without your trickery
Truth is, I don’t think about you at all Our time together didn’t exactly enthral Truth is, I don’t think about you at all
Ultimatum
3-7-77
Three Seven Seventy Seven We’re gonna play hunt the felon Three Seven Seventy Seven We’re gonna play hunt the felon
Join the wolves or be the meat Tonight we will wet the street Follow us, you’re in for a treat This rough justice can’t be beat
Heed the message, get out of town Run, don’t walk. Keep your head down It’s time to go, it’s the only path Be gone or face our wrath
We’re judge & jury, the one stop shop Ends with a long rope and a short drop Times change, our dark past remains Your light goes out, our memory retains
Company Town
Spend it all in the company town The only way out is facedown
Each week worked, our debt grows The only relief, beer & hoes Sweat & blood for worthless scrip Worked like slaves with a hidden whip Slowly killing ourselves just to exist Our bodies broken we won’t be missed
No retirement for the likes of us Bare wooden cross and little fuss In the company we must trust As our lungs fill with dust We learn that life can be cruel When you're worth less than a mule
Too Good For You
Prison is too good for you We are gonna see it through Prison is too good for you We are gonna see it through
Revenge for what? Your own mistakes? You got what we all got, we make our own breaks. Taking lives because yours seems unfair Is more pathetic than I can bare
A statistic, one more loser, taking futures Nobody admires the loathsome shooters You won’t be famous, we will see to that History will see you as a worthless gnat
Every day taken will diminish your whole Be a man, get help, don’t lose control Nobody's future is set in stone The best revenge is to show how you’ve grown
Smile
If you want to see it more Give me a reason, I Implore
I am here because I have to be You think we are friends, I disagree. Your money buys service, not respect When we shake hands I disinfect
My skin crawls when you're close Your cash is tainted, you are gross My face with you, I must compose Your lecherous advances I oppose
Your touch makes me shudder I would rather lick a dumpster Get your mind out of the gutter You will never be my lover
Manipulation
How did we get here? Brother fighting son. You’re not stupid, what have you become,
55 miles, not the other side of the map, False information became the biggest trap. Memes & trolls more powerful than your tanks, Our Leaders obey or lose the loans from your banks,
The firehose of falsehood never shuts off, We greedily consume it, like pigs at the trough. Check your sources, don’t become their tool, It’s not that hard, you’re nobody's fool. The IQ of a mob drops like a stone Control the dogs to take the bone
We can beat this, but only if we try. Before you post, ask yourself why. We can beat this, but only if we try. Reject the lies, refuse to comply.
The Disappeared
Where are the disappeared? All belongings commandeered Where are the disappeared? Taken by the ones they feared.
Guilty of being the wrong race You’re disappeared without a trace Organs harvested, sold for profit The cash in the governments pocket
The satellites show city’s gone The official maps are redrawn Family’s torn apart, murdered Millions of human lives squandered
Forced to watch while their children are slaughtered Government sanctioned rape & torture
Let’s hear it
Let’s hear it for the good friends On them you can always depend
Countless years of ups and downs The ruined city’s and trash towns Through it all you stuck with me And had the strength to disagree We tried, we failed, we won, we lost You had my back, no fingers crossed
No matter what was in our way You helped me more than I can convey Laughter on the darkest days Always loyal, never betray By my side, my confidant Steadfast and nonchalant
Timeout
You’re just showing off, time for a nap Lights out, slump down, that’s a wrap Sleep it off, lemme finish my drink Crawl on home, remove your stink
Timeout loser, nap-time beckons This is going to be one of life’s hard lessons Timeout loser, nap-time beckons This is going to be one of life’s hard lessons
You overstepped the mark yet again You won’t hear them count to ten Wake up groggy, full of shame Feeling like you got hit by a train
Watch your mouth, who are you among? Should have checked before you swung We had no issues til you emptied your lung Nobody taught you to hold your tongue. Until, now.
We Stand
Partisan bias, openly displayed The people utterly betrayed Forty nine years of progress, gone in a flash Fifty point four percent, rights in the trash
Bring justice back to us all Don’t let this great nation fall Once a beacon of liberty Sliding into dark history
Supreme Apathy, Justice no more Opinions bought, judgments paid for Free gifts given to the holiday whore Sworn to uphold the billionaires law
We stand with you all Your body your call We stand with you all Your body your call
Hostage
Hostage of your own stupidity Ruining your life willingly Trading anger for your liberty Hostage of your own stupidity
Stand back fat man , say farewell Grown up lonely, daddy’s in a cell Good lives squandered for endless lies They stopped listening, no more replies
The wrong side of history A dark & lonely place Remember your liberty Before your disgrace
The storm has passed over now Moved on to another cash cow He’s not coming back, no one is Life left in tatters, just the abyss
Was it worth the hate & anger? Cannon fodder for a 2bit gangster Riled up, programmed to march on in He treats you now like worthless vermin
Cause & Effect
Fair Weather Friends
You’re only here, for what you can get. Letting you in, is my, only regret. Busy when I need help, from you.
Fair weather friends, the taking never ends. Fair weather friends, the taking never ends.
One way drinks, Oh, he never thinks, Yeah, fucking right. Conveniently broke, Absolutely pathetic, Worthless joke.
It’s easy to sponge, harder to give. I only see you, when you take. Our patience wears thin, Keep this up, and the reckoning will begin.
Fair weather friends, the taking never ends. Fair weather friends, the taking never ends.
One way drinks, Oh, he never thinks, Yeah, fucking right. Conveniently broke, Absolutely pathetic, Worthless joke.
IF I
Our lives moved on, I didn’t notice you were gone. You didn’t respond, I should have tried harder.
Would you still be here? If I was there for you? If I had tried harder.
Your secret shared, or held captive still, I was pushing upwards, You were six feet down, Too late to help you, Too busy to reach out, It doesn’t happen suddenly.
Forever we were friends, sharing biased shade. Always loyal when it counts. But you believed the lies.
Would you still be here? If I was there for you? If I had tried harder.
Your secret shared, or held captive still, I was pushing upwards, You were six feet down, Too late to help you, Too busy to reach out, It doesn’t happen suddenly.
