Armchair Expert

So ends a fair day in wrath
Craven image of a psychopath
A ditch full of abandoned minds
Victim blaming pantomime of tired tropes paraded past the eyes
of basement dwelling last years jokes now run amok
Think you're an armchair expert but you're just dumb as fuck

Liberty but at the expense of the marginalized
Your so called patriotic bleating is a shallow attempt
to erase the pain of tears they cried and lost lives
Your patriotism is a yoke not some divine right like you claim
Survival of the fittest but you're so ugly and rationalize
so much pain
And I stumbled on the scene and ran like seven seas pushing
through the eye of the needle to grasp the riches they'd been promising me
Yeah, get me to the good parts so we can see heaven before we die
The fine art of pulling yourself up by the bootstraps for a tiresome lie
The announcer is raving but I still don't care
cuz I can't forget bread and circuses get us nowhere
The ones he describes running by chasing fleeting fame but I
don't think distraction really helps our self - esteem

Bare Shores Bleed
06:50
|
|||
Legions of deniers
Blind to the atrocities
They fuel these pyres
Unhinged barbarity
From this occurrence
There appears no recourse
Humanity’s blind ignorance
The lead renewable resource
Rampant pollution
And deforestation
Stripping away every resources
All places in all nations
Proven not a myth
A crisis untold
We shall all bear witness
As this calamity unfolds
Parched mouths widen in need
While the masses overfeed
As all tides recede
You see these bare shores bleed
This is not a test
The world you loved as a child is waiting, calling, aching for respect

I can't stand it all of the bloodshed, such a regression into the past
I can't stand it, the factory death all of the hatred that never left
I can't stand it supply and demand it. All of the ways you cover your ass
I can't stand it

Now We Know Who You Are
07:09
|
|||
Once you were anonymous, remained in the shadows
Preached your message from a distance, eluded us this far
Now you come parading, your message loud and clear
And now your cover’s blown, we know who you are
Wore your colors boldly, preaching despicable disease
Stampeding through a town to which you’ve traveled from afar
You marched in expecting to be met with no hostility
But you fucked up and now we know you are
Packing rifles instead of morals, hatespeech versus brains
Stomped innocent protesters, even killed that woman with your fucking car
You thought you got away after leaving your trail of turmoil
Too fucking dumb to think about cameras; now we know who you are
Your face is on the news, we despise you for your inverted views
You only caused a scratch where you thought you left us scarred
You are not getting through, we’ll fight you to the fucking end
And never ever forget, now we know who you are

Suicide By Citizenship
02:16
|
|||
All sense of conscience null
With disbelief we’re in his thrall
Society devolving with every fucking decision
Condolences to us all
How can you be blind to this?
Though surreal this threat exists
No threat is bigger than his finger on the trigger
Suicide by citizenship
You say you want a part of it
But we know how the story goes
An absolute embarrassment
Enforcement for his appeasement
This is a path we’ve explored through two world wars
Please let me know where our morals went
Suicide by citizenship
You say you want a part of it
But we know how the story goes
Interdiction is necessary
Provoking the adversary
Offensive rampages unable to be caged
Worldwide crematory

Aneurhythmic

|

Snake hands in the year of your lord
Addiction by degrees and the way of the sword
Our daily ritual suicide continues
False information, clever clever
Sever the base, return to sender
Retreat into mundane servitude or into your brain
A narcotic haze
Take comfort here
They can't destroy you
Even when they try to shame your body and mind
Your soul is made of light
Even when they try to sink your spirited ship down, down, down
And you stand your ground the same as you always have
It's alright
They can't really win
Not in the Universal Truth of things
They'll always be cowardly men.
And there's no shame in finding your way

Bleeding Out
01:32
|
|||
I've been bleeding out all your deceptions
Fall back into the earth with your convictions
When sharks attack we chum
Hoping more of those fuckers come
Lonely at the bottom
Refused and forgotten
A thin skinned predator can't take the dirt dished back
Lonely at the bottom
Refused and forgotten
Rotting from the bottom
Condemned forsaken
