lyrics

[Verse 1]
Threat to national security
Low battery and bad reception
Media blackout has got everyone wondering who's gonna die
Stimulate by simulating crisis
Spread the neurotoxin
So they can choose between fight or flight

Console me with your blessed presence
And grant me the courage to persevere until
I am with you

[Verse 2]
The raven spanned his wings
Into the wind
A critical sign
An altered design

The flood
The walls
Reached beyond
Above
Our crackling dome

[Chorus]
But who are they feeding
And who sends the invoice
To all the lost souls running around
Someone has to be collecting
All the rewards of public fright
And I know I'm not the one
'Cause I smash my knuckles to the ground
So goodbye
Won't be writing into all your

Stupid lies
Did you believe what you found?
Critize
The endless supplies

[Verse 3]
Soaring in the skies above
The vultures feed on the vulnerable
Come hide
I won't tell anyone
But you were the vulture all along

[Chorus]
Who are they feeding
And who sends the invoice
To all the lost souls running around
Someone has to be collecting
All the rewards of public fright
I know i'm not the one
'Cause I smash my knuckles to the ground
So goodbye
Won't be writing into all your

[Verse 4]
The reason for prohibiting the things that I love
Can easily be spotted in the
Desensitized aura
Apparently welcomed
To the higher ground
But you and I are not

Hurriah image

Hurriah Borlänge, Sweden

Four dudes, guitar, drums, vocals and a lack of faith in rules. Maybe that's why these gentlemen do not allow themselves to be limited by square genre definitions. Maybe that's also why they do not see a problem with taking the heavy parts from stoner rock, the energetic parts from punk rock and the sweet melodies from the best songwriters of our time. ... more
