Bite Down

Paroles de Deadweight

So you think you got teeth, let me see if they hurt
Or is this just another demonstration of your empty words?
Mouth keeps running but you're always behind
Keep chasing your tail, wasting my time

No names, don't be afraid
I barely recall it anyway
You're just a symptom, not the disease
The infected part of the industry
Clinging on tooth and nail
Trying to prevent the current decay
Deadweight, leave 'em to rot
Deadweight, leave 'em to rot
Deadweight

Deadweight

I try to read the room but all I see is an elephant
That bites the hand that feeds to avoid its irrelevance
At first glance, I spotted no red flags but as soon as we shook hands
I noticed your crooked ways, you cowards
Your end of the pact, nothing delivered
Wasting my time when I could have climbed to the top of the pyramid
Not in the scheme that you put us in, Popovic, God forbid
We're speaking in different languages, just inarticulate mumbling analphabets
So let me be fucking clear I'm so done with your kind, it's embarrassing
So I bet you feel triumphant
When not a single band re-signs their contracts
But with your work and effort you can have that
I guess the circus wants their clowns back

Cut no heads
There's no need
Leave 'em be
Slowly dying as we speak
