Album: Let’s Hang the Landlord / Mayday Durasi: 4:36
[00:00.46]Born in the flood
[00:01.71]Bloody fingerpaint sets
[00:03.27]Blackmarketed fresh
[00:05.23]Water canons forget me not
[00:07.38]Epitaph airbrush with death
[00:09.71]White t's
[00:10.84]Wife beaters
[00:11.32]Button up
[00:12.41]Reattach flesh
[00:14.56]In between the lines
[00:15.66]Outside of the law
[00:17.85]Underneath the veil
[00:19.71]We dig our foundations
[00:21.27]We navigate the globe
[00:22.62]Trying to find a pattern to break the mold
[00:24.39]With a family to feed
[00:26.03]Theres nowhere we wont go
[00:28.52]But what if were caught
[00:32.77]They say Im a snitch
[00:33.79]Shot at the check point
[00:34.50]Found with his throat slit
[00:36.01]Theres spray paint on the teleprompter
[00:37.02]Anchorman screams that hes seen a monster
[00:38.63]Mayday
[00:39.30]Theres bloodstains on his shirt
[00:40.29]Mayday
[00:40.96]They say that hes gone berserk
[00:46.26]Sometimes
[00:46.94]When I wanna shut out this world
[00:48.11]Wanna rip up this page
[00:49.97]Wanna pour out this heart
[00:51.51]Wanna get up on this stage
[00:53.42]And my lips become percussion
[00:54.94]And my fists become the rage
[00:56.34]And I pound on this table
[00:58.21]Til it gives me something to say
[00:59.95]Then I think about things that Ive seen
[01:01.58]Right in front of me
[01:02.43]That I dont wanna believe
[01:03.46]Gimme one of these mikes
[01:04.45]Lemme letem know
[01:05.69]The way that it is is not how its gonna be
[01:08.52]Not if we dont letem get ahead of us
[01:10.16]The present tensions no threat
[01:11.87]Its just a fence across the path
[01:13.36]That were already ready to walk
[01:15.36]Rock solid footsteps
[01:16.60]Letem put up obstacles
[01:17.87]And prove that it isnt possible
[01:19.63]Fuck that
[01:20.40]We dont giveem any weight
[01:21.67]True liberty and freedoms at stake
[01:22.75]Peace will never become pass
[01:24.42]Live my life until my last day
[01:26.00]It was half-past eight in the bat cave
[01:28.05]When the cracks in the plaster collapsed
[01:30.51]And gave way to gaps in the pavement
[01:32.17]Mayday mayday
[01:33.31]Put it on blast
[01:34.36]For the passengers and messengers
[01:35.78]Cause this is a disaster
[01:37.59]Where the fuck are the rescue workers
[01:39.77]Not far
[01:40.80]Off pissing on a cop car
[01:42.23]In the hall with a poptart
[01:44.01]Sipping liquor in the rockbar
[01:45.81]Everyone climb to the frontline
[01:48.18]Lunchtimes cancelled
[01:49.20]All hands on deck to pull survivors from the landfill
[01:52.65]Onlookers passers-by shake off that rubble
[01:54.55]Brush off your shoulders
[01:57.45]Break free from your standstill
[01:59.55]Signs of a better world
[02:02.18]Causes we understand
[02:03.82]Failures we expected to occur
[02:05.92]And bring redemption for our sins
[02:08.03]Safety from the crowds
[02:09.98]In the shadows on the run
[02:11.53]We write our own cider house
[02:13.50]Rules to keep alive
[02:15.02]Rituals that prove their worth
[02:16.53]Search for systems we can trust
[02:17.88]Rhythms we can lock into
[02:25.27]This is madness salvage teams
[02:26.46]Can't bandage
[02:26.99]Hope when its damaged
[02:27.53]Or broken compassion
[02:28.37]Not enough rope in the van when
[02:29.76]World is collapsing
[02:30.65]Our mode of action
[02:31.43]Broadcast through the glass
[02:32.65]Its all we can manage
[02:33.54]Donate with the plastic
[02:34.30]Scraps from the salad
[02:35.06]Hoping to balance
[02:35.97]Emotions invalidated
[02:36.81]And staged on 4: 3 aspects
[02:38.38]Just ballast for sadness
[02:39.55]Lives shattered are standard
[02:41.21]Fare for cameras and channels
[02:42.84]Stare no abracabras
[02:44.41]No faster answers
[02:45.57]Or mantras for disasters
[02:46.79]Remastered and plastered
[02:48.29]Got it all backwards
[02:49.49]Do you know the faction your backing
[02:50.62]Its another man down
[02:52.13]Another mother gone
[02:53.28]Child drowned
[02:53.75]Another silenced song
[02:54.74]Solitude
[02:55.40]Another kind of strong
[02:56.39]I miss you
[02:57.02]Another strung along
[02:58.08]Missing in action
[02:59.35]Another page is blackend burned
[03:00.92]Turned to ashes to ashes
[03:02.31]Dust off the flags and the caskets
[03:04.12]We will never find another you
[03:05.89]Despite the life of love we knew
[03:07.77]These lightning times are trouble who
[03:09.25]Cant count the strikes that punished through
[03:10.94]The bonds we thought would never break
[03:12.51]And never will and never fade and never change
[03:14.35]But there is the rage
[03:16.00]Of losing you to their mistakes
[03:17.98]In between the lines
[03:19.06]Signs of a the next movement
[03:19.98]Refuge from the crowd
[03:20.94]Outside of the law
[03:21.68]Causes we understand
[03:22.52]Hands that trace
[03:23.45]Instructions for descendants in the
[03:24.36]Shadows on the run
[03:25.71]Underneath the veil
[03:26.85]Failures we expected to
[03:27.85]Occur and bring redemption for our sins
[03:30.43]In between the lines
[03:33.28]🎵
