BITE THE LEASH

Awake till I’m asleep
Asleep till I’m awake
Sneak out
Future’s bleak
Life is short
Try to sneak out
A pack of dogs chasing cars
A group of friends behind bars
So small in a world so big
Shackles around my ankles
And a rope around my neck
I’m moving slow
Even though I wanna run
Time to bite the leash
Something must be done
Walking through a tunnel
Living just to die
A thousand times I tried to go astray
I’ve got pulled back

Lives are lost and ignorance shows
Lives are lost but yours is spared
Lives are lost and ignorance shows
Lives are lost – nothing you need to care about
Systemic violence
It’s just a symptom of an easy life
No tears to shed in a world secure
The right time, the right land
You’re born with luck with nothing at stake
People die, people kill
Don’t need to care and never will
Shot in the head, kick in the teeth
Thrown in the pit, left for dead
Not your fault, not your concern
Easy life, no guilt
Pain so far
Easy fucking life
No drones over your head
No trenches in your yard
No neighbour’s dead
A life you wanna guard

My lonely self is on its own
A bitter taste on my tongue
My face is numb
Feeling odd
In every place they want you out
You can feel the disgust
Comfort in mistrust
Rotten roots, dead trees
Traumas, inherited disease
The blood line grows thin
I am the failure of my kin
When you lose your grip
You are the one to ask
A pact with the devil
That’s what they call you
Can’t rely on anyone
Since you decided to be an outcast
Always outcast
Rotten roots, dead trees
Traumas, inherited disease
My blood line grows thin
I am the failure of my kin
Family traitor

Like a hammer missing the nail
Like a dog biting its own tail
For this door I don’t need no key
I kick it in – free entry
Count me out, I’m on my own
I ain’t too proud, so I can’t let myself down
Still bite the hand, keep my jaws locked tight
Teeth sink in your flesh - pointless to fight
They say life has more to offer if you work hard
So you want me to suffer to get a reward?
Don’t point your finger at me you fool
Don’t fucking use me as your tool
Can’t get lost if you ain’t keeping track
So stay outta my way, you scumbag
