lyrics
A MORTE
Prelude:
One more day, one more frustration
All lights are off, I can’t feel my knees
I can’t feel anything at all, it’s sad
But I’m used to it. Do I deserve all of this?
Do I have feelings? I just wanna wake up…
Do I have a meaning? All I want is to wake up
No one can see me, not even feel me
My blood is no longer running… it has stopped!
Verse:
Take my hand, my land, my advice
This is my game, my freedom, my vice
This is the only life i know
I was never a king, but this is my throne.
I am sleeping and I just can’t wake
My eyes are dead and now it’s so late
If there are rules, they were built to break
My mind is gone and so is my faith!
Chorus:
I AM SLOWLY DYING
I AM FADING AWAY
IF YOU DON’T LET ME, I ASK YOU WHY
MY LIFE IS MINE AND I JUST WANNA DIE
MY LAST WISH IS : PLEASE, JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!
(MY LAST WISH IS: PLEASE, JUST GIVE ME A GUN!)
Verse:
Some are dying wanting to live
Some are alive wanting to die
Some go to heaven, route 666
Some go to hell. Private Suite : The SKY!
And there is a man that has full control
And there is a man that has full control
And there is a man that has full control
That man is you - TAKE OVER YOUR FUCKING SOUL!
YOU OWN YOUR SOUL!
Chorus:
Post:
Now that i’m gone through all my sins
Alone in the dark but it seems so clear
I’ve lost my thoughts to save my dreams
Never had a nightmare and that’s why my fear
Is to find myself again
Deep within me
I’m not alive, I can’t pretend
The lights are still off, IS THIS THE END?
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
