lyrics
With a shot in the dark that ignited a spark
I arose from the world’s evil as a giant dog’s bark
Hundreds of missiles, cannonballs and parachutes
Primitive ways of leadership have changed roots
…ladies and gentlemen, my name is WAR.
(chorus)
I wrote this letter to you, will it ever pass through
All emotions, all devotions
And all the pain this world brought too?
The surface that I’ve reached from the ocean underneath
With a powerful submarine that kept me hidden beneath
I’ve fought against all fishes and felt the biggest shark
I’ve changed the ecosystem every time I left my mark
Bubbles and blisters, breathing, then choking
Humanity’s losing their best dreams and hopes
I’ve traveled across all seas but never got further
I’ve passed through all storms, I’ve overcame all thunders
…by the way, my name is MURDER.
(solo : Bruno)
Greed fueled by green power, strength becomes weakness
Our hearts are iron based and envy is our witness
Ears rolling on the floor to gain the blankest score
The sky became ash-grey like it never was before
Now all people are dead, they flew like the fastest breeze
Like a litter with no nest or all brothers I have missed
I arrived too goddam late, now it’s time for the cleaning
A new era is coming but I never understood its meaning
How can we fight each other when we’re all born the same way?
How can we kill one another, believe in god and pray?
How can we burn our sins every day and every night?
How can we sleep so tight having faith on the saints above?
I’m screaming in vain, screaming in vain
Can you help me? ( Help me! ) Erase my pain.
I’m screaming in vain again and again
Can you help me? ( Help me! ) Erase my pain.
…my name is LOVE.

Raw and hooky as heck, “Disaster Preparedness Coloring Book” is all classic, ragged indie sonics and rock-solid melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 3, 2023
Sticky-sweet hooks collide with glitter-coated, glammy guitars on the righteous, raucous new LP from this Auckland band. Bandcamp New & Notable May 21, 2023
