Monsters

I’ve been with the monsters in their sullen lairs
Been living your personal hell cold heart of stone
I’ve seen you there scheming in dark city depths
Little devils are laughing searching for the punchline
Your rolling out tonight
They’re fearing for their lives
Yeah, I’m on call alright
Nobody will ever know
I’m on the search for a pill, I need your antidote
Your pining for a reaction, I’m so sick and tired
Your sick and twisted action, eyes open I can see
Walk out slam the door, throw away the key.
Your rolling out tonight
They’re fearing for their lives
Yeah, I’m on call alright
Nobody will ever know
Gone are the things that you said, cure my bleeding ears
Just leave and let me rest, take yourself to bed
Your dead lifeless stare, shines bright behind those eyes
I pray that we don’t wake, our souls sleep inside
Your rolling out, yeah, I’m on call x 3
Nobody knows!
Nobody ever will!

Haze In My Head
04:30
|
|||
A haze in my head and a fog on my soul
A feeling so strange but not any more
It has no beginning and has no end
I don't know if I can take any more
Heavy words stick in the throat
A weight on your chest without any rope
The red mist anger eating you whole
Perhaps I can take just a little bit more
Can you hear me? X 2
Rise above, I'm not alone
Rise above, take it all
Rise above, bring it on
Rise above, I'm not alone
A hundred faces passin' me by
Selling their soul for a chance of gold
I’m too busy to see your pain
Just ruling like the kings of old
A light within rising high
The fog on my soul clearing way
No feeling is forever
I can take it all
Nothin' is forever
No feeling is final
I can take it all
I'm not alone

Wild Whiskey
03:39
|

It started with a smile
Way down on Main Street
A summer day electric fever dream
Burning the sky it seemed so familiar
Golden gate Happy hour
2 tonnes of American muscle
Purring in the air
leather jackets & bullets the devil’s trade
Yeah wake up!
No I'm not looking for my paradise
I got too much left to do
No this ain't my time
I'm not gonna lay down and die
Damned if you do, damned if you don’t
All night long I had the oil burning
Wild Whiskey soaked memories
Sleeping with sins and burning bridges
Early morning shakes & blonde haired pillows
White lines and pounding bass
I never for a second thought I was dead
No I'm not going to roll over and die
Yeah wake up!
No I'm not looking for my paradise
I got too much left to do
No this ain't my time
I'm not gonna lay down and die

Crashing The 5th Floor
03:47
|

Boom and bust, the banks keep on hiding
Temperature rising & energy booming
You think you have the right?
Cos we're coming to get you!
Mother Nature a race of deniers
Thinking of the creatures flying
Blowing out their filthy tone
Pushing people, like they were stone
You have the right
Who has the right?
Pretend you're right
No one's right
Yeah, we're crashing
Yeah, we're crashing
We're crashing the fifth floor
Yeah, we're crashing
Yeah, we're crashing
We're crashing the fifth floor
We're coming to get you
Black book budgets hiding UFO's
51 reasons to look in the desert
MK Ultras, false flag attacks
All are stories, keep you under control
Facebook COVID 5G masts
Twitter tweets conspiracies
Bat stew Wuhan tracking apps
Wet market brutality

Rise Up
03:25
|
|||
We the numbers rising
Feel the storm gathering
Old foundations cracking
Evil bloodlines feuding
We are us and you are you
We are us and you are you
Our education ever clearer
Patriarchy’s time to crumble
Evil clutching at desperate power
Time to break your tyrant cycle
We are us and you are you
We are us and you are you
Watch them cower hidden in fear
Hide behind your rules and guns
We know what you intended
Time is up, your chance to mend
We are us and you are you
We are us and you are you
Pandora paper bankers
Gentrification of the masses
Tory donor corruption
Eton Bullingdon muppets
We are us and you are you
Free peoples, Free power

For The Downtrodden
02:16
|
|||
The 1% have stripped our assets
Taken our wealth & filled their glasses
Injustice & corruption
Dark days ahead unless we fight
For the downtrodden
For the misfits
Insurrection
In the districts
Autistic warrior rides the ocean
Taking the fight void of emotion
Striking back in vast numbers
Change is coming rebellion!
For the downtrodden
For the misfits
Insurrection
In the districts
Oceans are rising, forests burning
Ice is melting, species dying
Times must change before its too late
Rise up & stop the lyin’
Together we are strong
Fight the pollution
Fight the corruption
Break the cycle
For the downtrodden
For the misfits
Insurrection
In the districts
For the downtrodden
For the misfits
Insurrection
In the districts

Pretenders
04:27
|

Stood there your torn Jeans, ooh so edgy
Seen that Norwegian folk rock band
You’re so trendy, miserable and oh so fickle
Look at you with your hammer & sickle tattoo
It’s all fake, you’re make believe
Living your own twisted little lie
It’s all fake, you’re make believe
Hiding behind your fictional life
You’ve watched question time and Andrew Marr
Got your 12 point plan to sort our borders
Had your share of pork pies and pints of shite
Yelling Brexit means Brexit we’ve got our country back
Born in a 6 bed Cotswold cottage
Working class now so you feel like one of us
Pack it, let’s have it right! Your brother’s name is Tarquin
You’ve never been close to fight in your life
Top knot White Jeans
Flat cap Man bag
Waist coat No socks
Air pods What a twat
Dressed in a black tracksuit with a cig in your mouth
Walk the streets like you were born and raised on them
Mum bought your new trainers when you begged
Best rush home family dinner is served at six.

I Hate You
04:19
|

I hate you sitting on your throne
Judgement etched in your eyes
Barking orders we’re supposed to own
Do you really think you are better?
I hate you leading the pack
Who do you think put you there?
The things you’ve done you can’t take back
Are you really better than us?
When the falls come down
When the rivers run dry
You’ve burnt your bridges
There’s no one left to try
Hate you
Hate you
Hate you, won’t you fly
And then there is a sensation
You can feel it in your chest
It builds in its mis-directions
And grows a bitterness
You start to wonder
About the lies and false promises
You would think they’d see the faces
But people can be so blind
When you finally emerge from behind your cloud
When you see the people you’ve touched
And you start to wonder whats happened
Just know that you’ve far too late
COS WE ARE HAPPY WITHOUT YOU! X 8

Mandy
03:08
|

Mandy struggles with her mental health,
He does more harm than good,
She never has the strength to leave,
If she had support, she would.
She's stranded far from her family,
And can't afford the train,
She finds it hard to make new friends,
Just leaving the house a strain.
Day after day, same old shit,
Can't afford to feed the boys,
Day after day, same old shit,
Needs a four-pack to get by.
Social Services no help at all
Just pile more pressure on
They seem to see him as a saint
Can’t see that it’s all a con
Mandy’s standing by the tracks
No hope left at all
Train in the distance must relax
Nothing too live for
Day after day, same old shit,
Can't afford to feed the boys,
Day after day, same old shit,
Needs a four-pack to get by.
Something on the tracks ahead
Gonna blow my horn
Shut my eyes and hope it moves
Another death to mourn
Patrol car racing to the scene
Scared of what they’ll find
Mandy kneeling by the rails
Decided to survive
Day after day, same old shit,
Can't afford to feed the boys,
Day after day, same old shit,
Needs a four-pack to get by

Life in the fast lane
Acceleration
Rushing ahead to your
Destination
Roadblock ahead
Hit the brakes
Dead Slow x 4
Nowhere to go
Lockdown in the UK
Separation
Reaching out across the
Nation
Roadblock ahead
Hit the brakes
Dead Slow x 4
Nowhere to go
Dead Slow x 4
Nowhere to go
