Searching for answers where there are none
My eyes are open
i'm tearing down your shrine
my gaping wounds are so sore
from bathing in your shine
such holiness don't suit me
i'm headed for the gutter
to the rats and the freaks who
hide and cower from your thunder
look in my eyes and you'll see what i mean
left on our own we're bleeding out
searching for answers where there are none
too long a servant
i've had my time to learn your ways
but you'll forgive me if i
choose instead to laugh in your face
left on our own we're bleeding out
searching for answers where there are none
we're bleeding out
we're bleeding through
we're bleeding out
we bleed for you
left on our own we're bleeding out
searching for answers where there are none

Saving Face
When your weapon of choice is
words of wisdom
ripped from the throat of
dead generations
suited to fit your needs and your greed
the roots of a nation bleed in shame
you can choose what you wanna believe
but (you) still only have yourself to blame
we run in one place
whatever it takes
saving face x2
cos buddy you're living a lie
you just don't know why
you keep telling yourself that you
tried, tried, tried, yeah
waiting for temptation
temptation just wont come
looks like i'm the only one
who looks for something
oh something different but
will suffer when we'll come undone
we run in one place
whatever it takes
saving face x2
"it's hard to remain a politician these days, information is available on just about anyone: credit files, service records, lawsuits, marriages, divorces, wills, births, deaths, licenses, permits, vehicles registered. If you want to remain invisible, pay cash for everything... OR JUST DON'T GET CAUGHT!'
why ruin it for the rest of us
when your pointless time here is almost up
what's the limit of your selfishness
what's the use in piling on this mess?
I know you see it
it's fucked anyway
but a new regime could
come any day
we run in one place
whatever it takes
saving face x2

Helsinki
come here and taste my
mouthful of love
the type of girl can't
keep her trap shut
i think it's time you
got to know me for real
might say what i think but i'll
never tell you how i feel
how i feel
this book is closed for good the pages are torn
i hope it's understood
you'll never read a chapter
even though you should
come close and take your dose of
serendipity
just think twice about
what you have to offer me
it's time you got to
know the basics of this deal
might say what i think,
i'll never tell you how i feel
this book is closed for good the pages are torn
i hope it's understood
you'll never read a chapter
even though you should

Love Prevails
Ready the quarantine
cos i can guarantee
a flood of hosts of the most ambitious,
armageddonesque disease
that you've ever seen
reinforce the chest plates
whatever it takes
you're not ready for the sickening sound
your heart makes when it breaks
a gust of lust
that fills my pores
a light that might
just melt my core
your chains become
the iron seal
that keeps my affections real
whoa-oh
cant be the only one
whoa-oh
stopped staring at the sun
deepthroat my ego
you cannot let me go
cos i'm all you have and
we're too blind to see, oh
please don't depend
until you comprehend
this is all you get
i'd rather break then bend
i'd rather break then bend

So Bored
(Brass)Knuckles in your pocket
show the city what you got
if someone fucks up
you'll be there to fuck back
aggression is the end all and be all of your existence
you pathetic hack
you're bored - so mad at society that you're gonna blow
but if the cops show up you're there to dance
aren't we all having so much fun
let's wait 'till the law leaves
-so we can back to our regularly scheduled programming:
of kicking the shit out of everyone!
you're bored - so mad at society that you're gonna blow
so bored - you'd rather throw punches than open books
