lyrics

Blessed angry bones
Armored with riches
Rakishly suave with half-assed intentions
(Like kisses with open eyes)
Moral lenses shade trophy scars
Sleeping under houses
(We never built to die in.)

Misery is an understatement
Pity spouts a lifestyle
Where smiles become an act
And love is dead.

Scratching at your throat for air
How can you relieve what never seemed easy?

Coward, slack your pretty face
Inside your pity sheets of all your dismay
Against the tide of every day
Singing symphonies in your sleep.
(Patience, tactician.
Lies; repetition.
This act you won't repeat.)

Gamble success; in love with your sins
Romancing all the fools.
Hush that noise that you call a voice;
Walker amongst the wolves.
As sleeping dogs lie perfect in slumber
Know all the things you do.
Sorry's unbecoming, I'll tear you apart.



and I am so angry at how quality
Is weathered so by the
Pathologic quality of modern norms.
