lyrics
THE GREAT DEPRESSION
I have poison inside, I live with venom inside
I’m not a snake, I’m just a horse you can’t ride
I am a viper, I am a sniper
You are just a goddam loser, motherfucker!
Untie that rope ‘round your neck, unveil hope… 1,2, check!
This is your very last goodbye, it’s your choice, no reason why
Pride blinds you, but for what? Brothers in arms, a past you forgot
With or without us I hope you feel well
The web that you build, the pit where you fell.
You’re so great… a great depression.
Decay…release…betray
A hundred dues you didn’t pay
A thousand words you forgot to say
Hey baby, good luck on your way.
( Half-man, you’re your own prey )
( Hey player, you burn your own way )
I have poison inside, I live with venom inside.
Play games, you lose, what a shame, we never played but won this game
While you’re talking, silence is nice. Act like a man, that’s my advice.
Truth is true, it’s crystal clear. Each lie you say reveals your fears.
With or without us I hope you are fine
Threats and denials but this ecstasy’s mine.
…we love you anyway…
