Lyrics:


We've all been waiting on a better life

Someone to come and make it right

Crooks and liars left it sparking on the floor

Now we can't take no more


Worms!

We are worms!

In soil to praise the dirt

Here!

We are here!

Fractures bones to pay the rent


How dare you commit me to swallowing knives?

I'm already dead

The match comes alive with the night-time

All to watch it all burn


No time to think about it

I guess it's over now

End of the world tonight

We'll spark a firefight

Look me in the eye

Tell me it's not enough

To trust the roll of the dice

Somewhere out there will find you

When you're at your worst

So tired we're falling over

I can't live this lie


How dare you commit me to swallowing knives?

I'm already dead

The match comes alive with the night-time

All to watch it all burn


Now turn the lights down low

It boils down to your passion

So we can see the glow

It's growing so fast

Is it in your bones?

This chaos waking

Up in flames it goes

Up in flames it goes


Paranoid!

Paranoid!

Paranoid!

Paranoid!


How dare you commit me to swallowing knives?

I'm already dead

The match comes alive with the night-time

All to watch it all burn

I love the breakdown at 2:00. The chorus melody is so catchy too, I might have that stuck in my head today.

Pretty nice! Gotta love drop G!

ZacTaylorTunes responds:

Thanks so much for listening, and right!? Such a fun tuning!

Oh this is grungey as fuck. I'm here for it. Love those screams too man! Is this all you or a new band?

ZacTaylorTunes responds:

Thanks man! Trying to work a little more screaming in, This is all me!
