New Hopes, New Demonstrations

Bright lights, drifting in-front of me, heave up all the tar in your bones, good luck with that apology, never choose how you go. Got raped, dangled in-front of me, got raped now they're phoning your home, good luck, with that apology, never choose how you go. Gold from tin, you can't tell the difference. Can't you see all you need are different rules? Can't you see that all you need, different bones? All you do is fucking complain 'bout being thrown to the wolves, keep in mind the vermin you fear have all been wearing kid gloves. Fuck dreaming. Dead eyes drifting in-front of me, red eye is a sign that you're done, passed out in the back of an ambulance, maybe they'll take you home. All you do is fucking complain 'bout being thrown the wolves, keep in mind the hopes that you have will all be better of lost. Get ready. Float me in a barrel down the river. Turn your bright lights on. Bright lights, drifting in front of me, heave up all the tar in your bones, good luck with that apology, you never choose how you go, the way we go.

Fucking new romantics, it's only rock-n-roll, this is our religion as heaven we'll never know. No, I'm not delivered. Architects as militants, architects as crystal bones, metal hearts as oil cans, metal shoulders, knees and toes, in the spaces in our teeth lie the weapons of our youth, bring them down without a sound, bring them down and burn their towns. Fucking new romantics, it's only rock-n-roll, this is our religion as heaven we'll never know. No, I'm not delivered. I'm not delivered at all. We all kneel down at the feet of the sound. I was born an hour glass, now I'm skinny as a rake, I was born with silver spoons but I'll die without a care, but that's cool. . Fucking new romantics, it's only rock-n-roll, this is our religion as heaven we'll never know. No, I'm not delivered. I'm not delivered at all.

I'm dead in my mother's eyes, this band barely keeps me alive, this band is the source of all my troubles, all worries. This battleship has struck the tide, it's sailors thrown up on my side, black water flows through all I know and all I know is burials. Oh! No future? I'll risk it. At least the risks we take are as a unit. When all we've got is pride, my futures upped and died, I'll cherish every second we're together. I won't remember all the starlight in your skies, I'll just remember all the black tar round your waistband, we pushed the bodies in the lake but it's a train wreck, we never tangle with the weak. No future? I'll risk it. At least the risks we take are as a unit. When all we've got is pride, my futures upped and died, I'll cherish every second we're together. When all we've got is pride, my futures upped and died but god it left a corpse so pretty. Cherish every second with you.

Whale bones, small stones, flags waving in the hands of the broke and homeless, dig deep, dig fast, we're screaming for the kids that'll finish last. This is the sound of the worthless drunk's son, these are the cards of a vulture culture, this is the sound of the right place wrong time, this is the mark of a victimless crime and... Our limits, will be our killer but I'm bored of being afraid, so much for the kids that never quit. I won't regret it, I won't forget it, these are the days were the good die undiscovered, This is a cause won't be fucking bought, not the ones buying. Dead hearts, false starts, clean the oceans while the whales sleep on their backs. Fall hard, fall down , dig the tunnels while the worms sleep undisturbed. These are the towers of the kingdoms falling down, this is the sight of the queens blood drenched crown, this is fall of the kings we're killing now, this is the mark of a fingerless town and... Our limits, will be our killer but I'm bored of being afraid, so much for the kids that never quit. I won't regret it, I won't forget it, these are the days were the good die undiscovered, this is a cause won't be fucking bought, not the ones buying.
