Protest The Hero - Dunsel lyrics

And when the underworld's best kept secret saw it's own reflection I knew things had finally changed (for better or worse, whatever as always) when the mid-life fires start to burn and burn down our one protection, I won't take pictures from their frame (whatever as always) when the hands that sold me everything, slapped a price tag on my chest I bit my tongue and shut my mouth, tried to blend in with the rest but I'm a square peg, I'm a sore thumb and it seems to me this apathy k**s the life in artistry and leaves us ankle deep in industry All these songs sound so damn good, even if their meaning's hollow but hollow words dry out your mouth you might find it hard to swallow all the sh** that we keep feeding, to keep ourselves and you believing that no money could change us then a door opens up and some devil persuades us the songs we sung when we were just young have all but lost their meaning but there's still a few things that we keep on believing… sh**ty music just ain't worth makin' smiles and thank-you's just ain't worth fakin' some a**holes' hands just ain't worth shaking and if it ain't broken, we need to break it there's no such thing as unconditional, no contracts bind you in the end make no mistake, this is a k**ing ground blood-hungry and camouflaged as friends select 'yes' at the end of this mess… if you get there and it's your only f**ing 'option' left these days I don't know the people I'm supposed to trust and I don't trust these people that I'm supposed to know the handlebars on my dreams slowly start to rust they'll take everything and somehow you still owe as the c**aine cowboys finally get their wings and sell them all for blow these days I don't know the people I'm supposed to trust and I don't trust these motherf**ers that I'm supposed to know the handlebars on all my dreams, they slowly start to rust as the c**aine cowboys finally get their wings and sell them all for blow I make music for myself not for hat tips from the upper-tier and their undeserved wealth here's to their failing f**ing health… I don't mean this in a hateful way, but when the people you love start walking away the walls gets tighter each and every day you better take your last bite before it crumbles away and there's something inside me I just have to say love nothing, trust no one, just live for the motherf**ing day
