You hang your fingers in the lions den
I can’t promise that you’ll see them again
And you’ll worry
Your act of war was re-assured by the ones who loved and lost than never loved at all.
My actions were wrong and they were applauded
Don’t get me wrong I couldn’t avoid it but the ultimate cost? You paid the ultimate cost of war.
Victory Shame
History favours the victor
It’s rubbish
You’ll tell them my alibi was self defense
I tell myself
It was an act of consequence
Hey!
The devils in the details, The devils in my DNA
You can’t run you can’t run from blood
You can’t run, you can’t run from blood
You can’t run, you can’t run from blood
You can’t run, you can’t run from blood
My actions were wrong and they were applauded
Don’t get me wrong I couldn’t avoid it but the ultimate cost? You paid the ultimate cost of war.
Victory Shame
History favours the victor
It’s rubbish
You’ll tell them my alibi was self defense
I tell myself
It was an act of consequence
You hung your fingers in the lions den,
I know now I won't see you again.

That’s an angry God, is he listening?
This is another song about the system
Oh yeah, I’m not sorry.
A shamed priest, a brand new mall
Police don’t really care about the law yeah
I’m not sorry.
Pay the Bills, pay your rent,
pay your auntie who only lives on dividends
(How hard are you listening - Taylor)
You’re there still
It’s well known the worlds wealthy only look out for their own
Another day another dollar in my head
Another six drinks alone
Another day another dollar in my head
You’ll be asleep when I get home.
(Taylor)
I know you drink as self medication
It doesn’t mean I’m after that attention
Oh yeah you’re still not sorry.
Stay silent out of fear
it’s half the reason I don’t want to be here
Oh yeah you’re not sorry.
Pay the Bills, pay your rent,
pay your auntie who only lives on dividends
(How hard are you listening - Taylor)
You’re there still?
You’re alone, the worlds wealthy only look out for their own
Another day another dollar in my head
Another six drinks alone
Another day another dollar in my head
You’ll be asleep when I get home.

Resentment

There’s a place that she goes to cry,
But it only happens at night
And from 9-5 we wait
Because God doesn’t care about us anyway
There’s a place that my father died
In a test tube and a bath full of Ice
And from now until 2035
I hope to god that he doesn’t survive
You know that papa’s got a temper
And a whole lot of resentment
And from 9-5 we wait
Because god doesn’t care about us anyway
And God made us by mistake
And he doesn’t have the decency to put us all away
So every night and day we die
Because God doesn’t care about us anyway
And I’ve got to get a message back home
And I’ve got to find a way back home
