Killers, Thieves, Deceivers (single release)

by I Was Awake

/

lyrics

OWN, THIS AUTOBIOGRAPHY
OF ALL, STAGGERING FOOTSTEPS AND
OH HOW DEAFENING
IS THE HOAX, OF CARING FOR ANYTHING.

TAKE CONTROL OF ALL, ALL TYRANNICAL, OVERBEARING.
NO LETTING GO… OF ALL THESE SHORTSIGHTS, UNDERCUTTING.
SMILES DON’T YOU KNOW, CUT SO SHARPLY WHEN OUT OF CONTEXT

MAKING DEBTORS OF ALL ENCOUNTERED.

(YOU KNOW?) THEY'RE ALL KILLERS, THIEVES, DECEIVERS.
(FOLLOW?) ALL THE OTHER NON-BELIEVERS
(SO LOW) TO FEED THE NEEDS OF BOTTOM FEEDERS.
(BOW OUT) SINKING SHIPS TO SAVE YOUR BROTHERS.

STEAL, OUR MODEST COMMODITIES
AND DO YOU, NEED THEM MUCH MORE THAN US?
SELL HELL, ALL OUR SOULS AND SO MUCH MORE
TO SAVE YOURSELF, OH SO DESPICABLE.

SEE THE LAST REACTION, ANY CHANGE OR ADAPTATION?
MAKING INSTIGATIONS...LITTLE FINGERS, BIG INTENTIONS
WE'VE LOST THE MISSION, IGNORED THEIR LOSSES, PICK THEIR POCKETS.

EAGER ENEMIES, KNIVES IN HAND, SAY...

WHAT'S THIS?
WE’VE CAUGHT UP TO YOUR USELESS ANTICS
LOWER MOTIVES, THAN I’VE KNOWN OR EVEN EVER SPOKEN
PLEASE FORFEIT THIS
YOUR ATTEMPTS TO MAKE A PROFIT
POISONED AGAIN.

(YOU KNOW?) THEY'RE ALL KILLERS; THIEVES, DECEIVERS.
(FOLLOW?) WE'RE THE ONLY TRUE BELIEVERS
(SOLO) DON'T FEED THE NEEDS OF BOTTOM FEEDERS.
(OH NO) ALTER EGOS TAKING OVER.

COUNT OUT, ALL THIS REASONING
OVER, OVERSHADOWING
AND OH HOW DEAFENING
THE TRUTH IS, CAN YOU HEAR IT?

WHAT'S THIS?
WE’VE CAUGHT UP TO YOUR USELESS ANTICS
LOWER MOTIVES, THAN I’VE KNOWN OR EVEN EVER SPOKEN
PLEASE FORFEIT THIS
YOUR ATTEMPTS TO MAKE A PROFIT
POISONED AGAIN.
