Intro 01:31
We drown ourselves in the river Styx No life or love keeps afloat the fix The fix that we need to control our lives The control we need to keep us alive We stay compliant, we stay aware We stay in the dark, we stay to care This bittersweet, The love and loss Overwhelming sensation that when the reaper knocks The hatred of good The love of hate The fear of innocence served on a plate Cos this is where your loved ones lie Still in debt the day they die Cos this is where your father sleeps Afraid to cry, afraid to weep And now we will abide the time These Lambs are slaughter side by side Every false hope is dead The path that all our mothers led Now we kick the broken chair Now we make it crystal clear
2.
Are you ready to go to hell and back Are you sure You’re braver than I Drink this poison Here we go again Ears ringing like it’s gonna be for long again Hook line sinker, how it goes let’s burn the witch and let’s feed the crows The whole world hates us so it should we’re pride, we’re privileged, we ain’t good This god forsaken land of late, Let’s burn it down, it ain’t fucking great I hope we go to hell I hope it finds us well I hope we go to hell I hope it finds us well I hope we go to hell I hope it finds us well I hope we go to hell I hope it finds us well Because if I could go back to the start of us I’d purge the gods, there’d be no fuss No gods, no masters, none at all I’d pay to watch the empire fall Our lives and saviours all to dust No rolling dice, all out of luck The ancient hell that we look upon It would all be better if it were fucking gone I hope we go to hell I hope it finds us well I hope we go to hell I hope it finds us well I hope we go to hell I hope it finds us well I hope we go to hell I hope it finds us well I hope we go to hell Burn it Fucking down now Torch this motherfucker Oh my god we’re gonna burn this fucking place down Kill them all I hope we all go to Fucking hell

Clean cut and I’m locked outside Nose bleeding and I’m starting to cry King’s horses broke their necks Jumped the fence and get no respect You can run the race but you’ll still come last drink to death and get fucking smashed. Kill the king and then burn the throne Love thy neighbour from a broken home. Oh you’re so expendable You’re gonna starve before you end it all. Do you like the taste of swan? once a year or they’d all be gone Oh look it’s my fifteenth party Get my ass out for the paparazzi Sniff it all til my senses go numb Thanks tax man spent it in one Clean cut and I’m locked outside Nose bleeding and I’m starting to cry King’s horses broke their necks Jumped the fence and get no respect You can run the race but you’ll still come last drink to death and get fucking smashed. Kill the king and then burn the throne Love thy neighbour from a broken home. Do you like my chandelier Paid for it with cold hard tears Sip wine from a champagne glass Praise god at the midnight mass Your hunger it won’t hold, you’ll die before you revolt Malnourished love affair We’re all rich so who fucking cares Clean cut and I’m locked outside Nose bleeding and I’m starting to cry King’s horses broke their necks Jumped the fence and get no respect You can run the race but you’ll still come last drink to death and get fucking smashed. Kill the king and then burn the throne Love thy neighbour from a broken home. Mass graves for the chosen ones Knives out to survive the cult No love for the broken homes Unempathetic for the broken bones Clean cut and I’m locked outside Nose bleeding and I’m starting to cry King’s horses broke their necks Jumped the fence and get no respect You can run the race but you’ll still come last drink to death and get fucking smashed. Kill the king and then burn the throne Love thy neighbour from a broken home. can run the race but you’ll still come last you should drink to death and get fucking smashed. So Kill the king burn the throne Love thy neighbour from a Broken home

If you don't have anything, then there’s nothing left lose If you don't have a purpose, then you're gonna have to choose To put your faith in fiction, or put your faith in the news But either way you'll end up, disappointed with a bruise Cause there's maggots in your music, and there's maggots in the law They'll rip away your earnings, and at your heart they'll claw Take everything you have, and everything you earn They'll rip away your cravings, disobey and you'll be burned Cause I put my faith in all of it, and I put my faith in hymn But they never fucking listened, and I'm never giving in So nows the time to realise, and nows the time to stop Cos its just a money scandal, 1% at the top I tried my fucking best, but its all become a cough Last time I tried praying, Your God told me to fuck off Come on Yeah, nows the time to get down on your fucking knees I'm a rebel of your faith And I'm a rebel of your prayer Cause Every time I struggled Your god was never there Nothing but a money maker Nothing but a money taker Nothing but a fucking vandal And nothing but a scandal Yeah, Here lies my conscience Nothing but a poor broken boy who spoke nonsense Nothing but a victim, of capitalist fraud Who got his soul taxed, fucked and thrown overboard Forgotten people, all around the place, waste of space But we're all part of the human race We got few issues, need to be addressed Gonna be rebellion then we'll break some fucking necks It's never gonna end, unless we take a stand Fuck the government, fuck the church Its all a scam Nows the time, to call around And burn the fucking system down I'm a rebel of your faith And i'm a rebel of your prayer Cause every time I struggled Your god was never there Nothing but a money maker Nothing but a money taker Nothing but a fucking vandal And nothing but a scandal Oh, you're a good person Because you pray before food and read verse one But you ignore, the children in the streets Who are starving to death without a fucking spoon to feed You don't really care, you just do what you're told Ignoring poverty they're dying now but thats the goal Nothing but, a genocide of working class Bow down bend over for the overarching Fascist, the priests who got landed Into a prison cell locked up But fuck the lot of em, Cause I don't give a fuck Hopefully they've got cell mate with a dick to suck I hope they stay locked up for life But if the church gets involved they'll only get a night The scandals and vandals, the hopes and dreams Of already broken people, down on their knees I'm a rebel of your faith And I'm a rebel of your prayer Cause every time I struggled Your god was never there Nothing but a money maker Nothing but a money taker Nothing but a fucking vandal And nothing but a scandal I'm a rebel of your faith And I'm a rebel of your prayer Cause every time I struggled Your god was never there Nothing but a money maker Nothing but a money taker Nothing but a fucking vandal And nothing but a scandal

Cash Cow 03:53
Now that we walked round We killed the cash cow Don't be so brash now Get on the lash now Oh where's the money honey This isn't funny honey Now that we walked round I killed the cash cow Feel like the hang man My money down the pan I'm hearing bang bang Still screaming gang gang Before all hell broke loose I couldn't breathe cause my lungs were bruised I Murdered my modesty I felt worse off honestly But My lungs are filled with water Father controls your daughter Flowers that her lover bought her He got angry, she got slaughtered Now that we walked round We killed the cash cow Don't be so brash now Get on the lash now Oh where's the money honey This isn't funny honey Now that we walked round We killed the cash cow It's up in smoke now Gag and we choke now Grabbed by the throat now Getting provoked now I'm burnt out I've got no ambition Poor kid I've been conditioned Anxious about superstition Complacency envisioned If death be upon me promise I'll welcome it I won't starve but my clothes are counterfeit Still try, too scared to commit Shot pint shot pint shot pint sick Now that we walked round We killed the cash cow Don't be so brash now Get on the lash now Oh where's the money honey This isn't funny honey Now that we walked round We killed the cash cow Your good intentions They don't mean a thing When your sole purpose Is to play the villain to everyone you have ever met That's the end of the story There's no more to it The moneys all spent, and every single one of you have been nailed to the wall Again Now that we walked round We killed the cash cow Don't be so brash now Get on the lash now Oh where's the money honey This isn't funny honey Now that we walked round We killed the cash cow Now that we walked round We killed the cash cow Don't be so brash now Get on the lash now Oh where's the money honey This isn't funny honey Now that we walked round I killed the cash cow

I told myself I’d never seek revenge Rotting fruit will fall by itself What’s normal to the spider is chaos to the fly I’ve been stung and I’ve been left to die Broken bones and they ain’t healing right Happiness feels so far out of sight I’m feeling no pain now It’s all gone away now And everything I got right We’re living quiet lives of desperation And we are all born to trip and fall No friends just faces to hate Just faces to fall We are nothing but skin and bone broken people, it’s getting old My selfish desires are so uninspired it’s coming up to blows There’s a bullet in a bible now Everything that was good has drowned The flood gates are pouring out The lovers are screaming The poets still dreaming The flowers are rotting out Yeah they’re all rotting out My head spinning like a carousel Body aching and it starts to swell I’m feeling the pain now It’s all gone away now I’m starting to fall in hell We are nothing but skin and bone Broken people, it’s getting old My selfish desires are so uninspired it’s coming up to blows it’s all coming up to blows it’s all coming up to blow it’s all coming up to blow My head spinning like a carousel Body aching and it starts to swell I’m feeling the pain now It’s all gone away now I’m starting to fall in hell We are nothing but skin and bone Broken people, it’s getting old My selfish desires are so uninspired it’s coming up to blow it’s all coming up to blow it’s all coming up to blow it’s all coming up to blow it’s all coming up to blow I’ve been to hell and back and I still live this quiet life of desperation
