Violence/War (EP)

War Of Words Violence/War (EP) Lyrics
1.Violence Breeds

Rejected the life he was living violence became a religion
A disease brought on by disease brought on by the poorest
decisions

Said you're never gonna get to the life that you were started
towards
Never gonna get away from the fight to hold onto our world

Still believing everything they're told
Never questioning the lies they're sold

A lonely social suicide and now this pride
What died inside won't be revived
Back to the wall just trying to hide for fear of faces I deny
Too many faces to deny

New friends that aren't really your friends
Who decides where it starts and it ends?
If blood is the only answer we find then we're asking the wrong
questions

Tired of walking with my eyes to the ground avoiding all these
toes
Every night another mile of eggshells is paving every road

Still believing everything they're told
A new life spun out of control

Violence breeds violence from a clumsy fist to a hired hit
It's still the law of a lawless land where pain is the only suit
that fits
An eye or a tooth is still currency and a trip to the emergency
Is one last kick one breath too short one breath too short to
live


2.More Violence

This chip grows every day with every passer by
So don't ever underestimate my hate
This hate doesn't run dry
A violent reaction is long overdue
A line was destroyed by heavy traffic and my anger grew

How could one well adjusted person
Be so full of hate? They say
And I say walk ten steps in my shoes
They never have and never will and never will refute
So what may be news to you to me it's just old news

Do unto others cos they treat you like shit
The golden rule is ruled by fool's gold
Or duck and cover cos you're the first they'll pick
You see on me it's taken it's toll

If you think we live for violence you're wrong
It's wrong it's just how we get along
When hate torment and humiliation follow you
Fight back what doesn't kill you it can only make you strong
Chipped teeth kicked thru split lips still go unanswered
It's not something that we seek out
But it's something that we find
Don't breach the line (and) you won't even have your pride
And you can't if you pay 'em no pay 'em no mind
They say ignore it deny them the pleasure
But it won't feel like it's pleasure
When you're kicking in their head
So live and let live but live for their amusement?
I'd say that you're better off dead


3.Stakes And Mistakes

I'm ready when you are to face the creator
Or live in the crater your terror creates
Live in the holocaust live in the waste
Cos with power comes powerful stakes and mistakes
What will you do when you don't have a choice
But to live on the level with those you exploit
Those in power who cower are left with the choice
To determine the fate of those without a voice

Led to believe that our only protection
Is imposed by the threat of the world's destruction
The unhesitant finger's triggered from the direction
Of the man with the murder inspired erection

But the blood that flows below and descends
From such a violently perverted mind
Won't measure up to the flow of blood that soaks
Or just lubricates your hand so you can keep jerking off

So where are your comforts your home and your car
You've left yourself with nothing
What if you had to lift a finger
That didn't come down on a button

Down goes the button the trigger of destruction
And the rocket's red glare was a nuclear scare
Awake for the nightmare forced to witness the loss
Cos you can't close your eyes when your skin's melted off

And it didn't make me sad that the world had to end
Cos the greedy the oppressors were the rulers of the land
All civilization leveled by war
As those in power who seek power
Discover death by their own hands
Your inevitable nightmare my apocalyptic dream
Disaffected 'til the day you heard apocalyptic screams
New all power has collapsed like your buildings to the street
True equality achieved thru this scientific feat
So proudly we're defended by technology created
So blindly we're all ended our whole world decimated
All civilization leveled by war I'm ready when you are.


4.Not Today

And as I walk about this cold desolate waste
I just pray for my return to open arms and to a friendly place
But this is not the time and I can't see her pretty face
Cos I signed that dotted line and threw it all away

And as I run afraid there's nothing I can do
I just pray for my return as she prays on someone new
As I lie alone forgotten faceless nothing more to prove
There's another lined up in my place the next one to be used

I made it home and didn't find that friendly place
This blood that's on my hands I can't wash it away
