The Great Divider

We get what the world deserves,
bury all the chances
we lost, seeking apathy.
Cast out inhibitions No need to feel the same
We Let the pigs feed from their troughs,
locked in their chains.
Your world ends when you're cutting ties,
All is dark in the great divide.
Broken bones trade for blinded eyes,
All is dark in the great divide.
Take my soul from the other side,
All is dark in the great divide.
Far to old to hypnotise,
All is dark in the great divide.
No more saying cautious words,
We'll follow written verses.
No treading on the pavement cracks,
on people to deeply immersed.
On the mirrors frame, Or fame drenched in,
someone else’s drug decay.
Your world ends when you're cutting ties
All is dark in the great divide
Broken bones trade for blinded eyes
All is dark in the great divide
Take my soul from the other sideAll is dark in the great divide
Far to old to hypnotise
All is dark in the great divide
sustain myself so let me be
I'd Rather be on land then in the o

Rattlesnake

I am lost in the realm of idealists
and fracture the status quo
you were born an original
but died a copy scorned
We bathe in mongoose blood
and cast aside those heavy floods
I’ve scaled the mountain
I hope, I pray I’m dreaming
hold no debt at all.
Guess I’ve been so stupid and I’m ready for the fall
I’ll show you what I'll hold most dear
We watched the sky ignite to sound of our fears
Vultures waiting for the dead
I’ll cut my soul into thirds and give you the head
a murder of the innocence in me
A murmurs all it was to me you broke the chains and set me free.
I've shown you my fangs
now you show me yours.
I've shown you my fangs
now you show me yours.
You’re a rattlesnake
plain to see
you’ve had your chance
and blew it for me.
Though I've stayed the course
I hear your castanets
shouting no remorse.
we're just a tool to their mob
A spanner in their rusted cog
A scapegoat on the block
Red Hood fending your own flock.
A bite, a sting of innocence,
I watch the bleeding start to thin
was this an another fairer fight
You marked me from an Eagles height
A murder in the 1st degree,
cut the threads you went for me.
A murmurs all it was to me you broke the chains and set me free.
I've shown you my fangs
now you show me yours.
I've shown you my fangs
now you show me yours.
you’re a rattlesnake
plain to see
you’ve had your chance
and blew it for me.
though I've stayed the course
I hear your castanets
shouting no remorse.
we’ve bathed in mongoose blood
and cast aside those heavy floods
I’ve scaled the mountain
I pray I'm always dreaming
hold no debt at all.
Guess I’ve been so stupid and I’m ready for the fall

Sins Of The Father

Father, pastor, show me, love
Even though I'm the devil's son
I've been dragged up, so I'll drag you down
while you preach from afar
Brace yourself
rip my mind in two
I bare no shame
I bit the curb for you
I brought you salvation
I gave you my heart
You gave me your anger
And tore me apart
Brace yourself
Apologies.
I'll pick your saints
I'll be your greatest mistake
If you were here I would destroy you myself
I'll make you feel the way that I felt myself
Father pastor, show me, love.
Even though I'm the devil's son
Father, Father show me, love.
Even though I'm the bastard son.
The last thing you left was a curse to your name
did you hold for applause while you're greeted with fame?
