about

When the pressures of certain situations become a bit too much . . . you write a song about it. Speaks for itself really and nods to the importance of speaking up and out.

lyrics

There you sit with your mouthful of lies;
what comes from your lips is not a surprise.
The choices you make are fuelled by the green;
ignorant to those who need.

Try to live for a day in their shoes;
recognise that it’s not what they choose.
Threatened by decisions you may or not make;
the paths they are forced to take.

A life of depravity as they try to appeal to your,
sense of humanity; are the visions unreal?
There is no understanding, just unethical acts;
you are plagued by corruption, we are knifed through the back.

You have no respect for the people you know;
your honest opinion is foolishly low.
The judgement will come as you fall on your sword,
freeing the ones below.

A life of depravity as they try to appeal to your,
sense of humanity; are the visions unreal?
There is no understanding, just unethical acts;
you are plagued by corruption, we are knifed through the back.

There you sit with your mouthful of lies; (you liar)
what comes from your lips is not a surprise. (you liar)
The judgement will come as you fall on your sword. (you liar)
You liar.

There you sit with your mouthful of lies.
