about

I'd been discussing the cut throat nature of the internet with Ebro and our discussion lead quite naturally to this song. This song reflects upon how so many people utilize the internet as a place to vent and belittle.

lyrics

I’ve been with kinfolk who Mad Max in tinted windows
So binge and mince those words, working in sin though
Limbs akimbo splayed down with another sprayed round
Graves lounge in grey ground, it’s just a day now
Blood spattered windshields exhibit how a grinch feels
Pimp slapped with wiper blades, type away the pimp reels
Swinging for the fences relentless forget an infield
Signature is vented stupendous invent a grim spiel
Kim Deal, breeding the demons indeed it’s been real
Collecting the digital juice, for proof got a gin meal
Grim zeal’s employed to destroy them with poison, shins heal
Hypodermic needles infected effective spin wheels
Spite’s a furnace earning minor vibing merchant skim seals
At his best a card shark can hope to raise a fin shield
Post traumatic addict caterwauling while his skin peels
Cannibal survival hides a bible biting skim meals


Sacred cow burger patrol
Making new beef the motif, murderous souls
Was it worth it, the gold? Doing dirt in the hole
New insertion insurgent circus, a circuit patrolled
Working the mold until it explodes
Ill is the mode, ventriloquist dumb dummy money filling commodes
Striking a militant pose before the iron on cools down
Fools lounge in pools stalking pretties with a drooled frown
And rules round these parts anonymous iconoclasts
Back stabbers using your blood to get your autograph
Anything to get a better rep stretch it on the map
Close shaves throw blades, cutters never thought of that
Sincerity practiced…Wizard of Oz
Is a façade, a vision arisen in glistening gauze
Lost listeners pause, waiting for approval
Going out on prosthetic limbs limping brutal

Gather round the campfire licking mega pixel flames
Smell the Seldom melting bedlam, with venom in its veins
A sentiment exclaimed with agendas all the same
Hunting and pecking order, more defendants to arraign
With a vengeance in the name of namelessness how insane this is
the laymen sit at plastic fortresses with a fatal wit
Remorseless with equipped quips armed to the decayed teeth
Talking points are just a winnowing way to debase speech
