Petty Cross 02:07
Of all the things that should set you off You’ve chosen to carry the pettiest cross From all the ways the world keeps trying to break you You let it take you down the easiest way Do you even see yourself whole There’s a blind spot like a black hole Between the back of your head And just behind your eyes Bullheaded, bitter, jaded, everyone can see so clear You’ve been running in circles for years No matter how well you think you’ve hid your tears I know you’ve been crippled by fear Don’t let your anger go Don’t let your bruises show Don’t let your anger go Just let your bruises grow Just let your anger go Don’t let your bruises grow Just let all your wounds show Just let it go and grow, grow, grow

You’ll just say anything, won’t you? Anything at all to keep the stat quo Don’t hurt no feelings, don’t rock the boat You worthless tool Let’s all make nice and be friends, right? Every word out of your mouth is a waste of air In any case I’ve found more profound Thoughts under coasters Can’t believe you think we’re peers When you should be crawling beneath me Schoolyard bully turned dreamer Spewing smarm from between your thousand dollar teeth It’s fucks like you That squeeze the life out of me Come here little lamb, don’t fear I’ll just shear the sugar coating from your skin Free you from pretensions Of any meaning Can’t believe you think we’re peers When you should be crawling beneath me So crawl beneath me

This room smells stale Like an ideal rotting A whole movement Standing stiff as dicks Past idealists turned elitist Amassed in a vicious circle jerk Pointless impersonators Of those paved the way Year after year To the fucking beat Non-conformity turned inside out Year after year To the fucking beat The vest is a uniform Haven’t we heard everything here before; “Psychos in suits are destroying the world” Don’t need to be told ‘cause we’ve heard it before Depressing regression, this scene is a bore Non-conformity turned inside out The vest is a uniform

Woke up at noon on a Monday, yet again Just sat there hunched for hours on end Bills and tasks piling up again Deadlines and walls closing in Masturbate to procrastinate Writhe in the shower for at least a half hour afterwards Ignore the notes on the fridge Contemplate an another binge My apartment has become a prison I keep staring out the window I keep staring out the window I keep staring out the window I keep staring out the window I keep standing by the window I keep standing by the window I keep standing by the window I keep standing by the window

about

This is Enemies EP 1/2016.
Listen with shitty speakers on your way to work or whatever it is you do while cars drive by throwing grey slush on your feet. It’s March. Try to remain optimistic and think about all those positive hardcore bands of the 80’s and how their message can apply to your current situation.
