Culture War

(album: Vengeance - 2021)

The last straw
(Lock-jawed)
Ataraxis by chainsaw
Dead calm
(Fuck bomb)
Guillotine confetti
Epileptic nailgun
Possessed
(Protest)
Set the horde ablaze
Rise in riot
Clotted brain
Post traumatic stress

Doused
To the bone
Finding out
How fire burns

It didn't occur to me
Ideas can be disease
Terminal
Dogma off the chain
And it never occurred to me
Deceit becomes belief in unknowns
Culture war cocaine

Unspoken
(Broken open)
Beaten down and letting go
Punch drunk
(Gun dumb)
Those lynch mob parrots
Run down everyone
Hang the fucking simpletons
Just string 'em up
By their martyrdom
Hate arrives
In waves of blood
Breaking in demon dust

Doused
To the bone
Finding out
How fire burns

It didn't occur to me
Ideas can be disease
Terminal
Dogma off the chain
And it never occurred to me
Deceit becomes belief in unknowns
Culture war cocaine

Haunted
Maimed, fractured, guilty
Feared, afraid
Punctured head
Fucked by nightmares
Fucked by righteous dickheads
Bring it
Write your pain
On an effigy
Burn it alive...

I always wanted to belong
I didn't want to be invisible
I didn't want to be the one
The loaded gun
I didn't want for this to be my truth
See what they made me do?

It didn't occur to me
Ideas can be disease
Terminal
Dogma off the chain
And it never occurred to me
Deceit becomes belief in unknowns
Culture war cocaine

Write your pain
On an effigy
Burn it alive
