lyrics

With tongue buried in cheek, I’ll scream and shake a fist
Spitting words into the mic, so you know we’re really pissed
We’ve spent hours perfecting, clever songs to be consumed
Working on these brutal riffs, yet the crowd remains unmoved
We’re dead serious, can’t you tell?
Dead serious, violence sells, truth is forfeit, sincerity’s shit
Dead serious, dressed in black
Dead serious, screech like cats
Grow your hair out, plagued with self-doubt
I’m not a poet but a sloganeer, pouring bullshit in your ear
Spouting nonsense just to kill the time, nowadays I barely even rhyme
Sentiments turn stale inside my mouth, fake gun to my brains and blow them out
Candles lit around a pentagram, pretend to conjure like our souls are damned
We’re dead serious, can’t you tell?
Dead serious, violence sells, truth is forfeit, sincerity’s shit
Dead serious, dressed in black
Dead serious, corrupt the young
Reductio ad absurdum
Eternal pies in the face for the scowls of you all
