The Reaper
03:03
|
|||
|
Alarm clock, burning through the back of my brain
Near death, wondering if you feel the same
Think of my actions, all the words I said that I regret
Call the preacher, call the reaper, because this is it
Chorus:
They never said I’d make it out alive
But look at me now
Should I rise above or dig my own grave?
The bed I make will be the one I lay
One last cigarette before I start the day
Look in the mirror, how the hell did I end up this way?
I lost my mind, I lost control, I think I lost it all
Take ten steps forward, just to enjoy the fall
(Chorus)
The thought of your presence is haunting
Let me waste away in solitude
I have no one to talk to
So I’m just hanging out with amphetamines
‘Cause I already messed it all up
He’s never calling me
I have no one to talk to
So I’m just hanging out with whiskey

Warning Signs
04:01
|
|||
|
Have you ever been here before, face first in the toilet seat?
All those things I said are coming back to me
Have you ever felt like you don’t know where to go?
But all you know is that you shouldn’t have driven home
I always said I’d never end up like this
Forehead stained by the devil’s kiss
But I just need to open my eyes
Chorus:
What do you do when the poison becomes the antidote?
Close your eyes and swallow it whole
Grab your throat while you choke
You disregarded the warning signs
This wasn’t the first time in your life
I always said that I was much better than this
Anything just to scratch that itch
I’ll just keep washing away the pain
Drown myself so I’ll never hurt again
This isn’t who I wanted to become
I swore this would be my last one…my last one
But I just need to open my eyes
(Chorus)
I can’t do this on my own
Don’t leave me here all alone
Let’s just let this all go
Let it all go, let it all go, let it go
(Chorus) x2

Cult Movies
02:44
|
|||
|
Driving, listening to punk-rock music with you
Discussing cult movies, figuring out what to do
We could just get high
And waste away the night
Crack open a bottle
Either way, we’ll feel alright
Pre-Chorus:
Let’s just throw caution to the wind
I just don't want this night to end
Chorus:
Don’t want these memories being pictures
I'll never let them leave my mind
Don’t want these memories being pictures
The next adventure’s around the bend
Deciding which record to put on next
Laughing as we make another joke
We could just get high
And make fun of the dog
Crack open a bottle
Lose ourselves in the fog
(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)
Hey, hey!
What time is it?
Hey, hey!
Another night well spent
Hey, hey!
Nothing to regret
Hey, hey!
I just don’t want this night to end
Let’s stay up late watching cult movies
I just don’t care what we do
Let’s stay up late watching cult movies
I just don’t care what we do

Humanity
03:05
|
|||
|
What’s the difference in the color of skin?
We look the same on the inside, in the end
Pre-Chorus:
We shall hang your traditions on a noose on your family tree
Your hate and intolerance need to cease indefinitely
One, two, three, four
Chorus:
Fuck all the outside world, racism, homophobia
Fuck everything against humanity
Fuck your misogyny, stay in this dive-bar with you
I’m never going home again
Stop preaching a being proud of your hate
Understanding and unity needed on the mandate
(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)
You point your finger saying it’s a sin
Your fault for not wanting to understand
I think it’s queer that you care
I think you just need something to hate
It probably has nothing to do, hiding behind your religious state
Ignorance!
(Chorus) x2

Fools
03:50
|
|||
|
Technicolor meadows, soft wind in the breeze
I'm walking on water and got tricks up my sleave
A nuclear device where my heart used to be
Soaring high above the trees
Chorus:
And these words
Are dancing on the sun
Is it so wrong
To be a daydreamer?
Disenchanted fool running through grass
Echoes of my youth reflecting through glass
A cloud of hope that follow me true
Charmed by the light that shines baby blue
(Chorus)
Have we lost our innocence?
Can we not just play pretend?
Have we lost something inside ourselves?
Have we lost our innocence?
Can we not just play pretend?
Have we lost something inside ourselves?
We are fools...
Me and you...
And we are
Dancing on the sun
Is it so wrong
To be a daydreamer...
To be a daydreamer...
To be a daydreamer?
Have we lost our innocence?
Can we not just play pretend?
Have we lost something inside ourselves?

Fairytales
02:16
|
|||
|
Forget everything you believe is true
They’ve been using it to control you
Do what’s right, just because it’s right
Not because you want some holy afterlife
These pricks disowning their children
‘Cause they don’t like who they’re in love with
So much death and destruction
‘Cause they think their god is the solution
Pre-Chorus:
Throw your hands up in the air
Scream in the goddamn sky
Chorus:
I don’t know what’s up there
I just know it’s all been a lie
I don’t know where we go
I just know we’re all gonna die
Keep your religion out of my government
I don’t need you controlling my uterus
Bitch, I don’t need any fucking saving
So just please stop fucking trying
(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)
I know we’re all gonna die
Scream into the goddamn sky
I know we’re all gonna die
Scream into the goddamn sky
I know we’re all gonna die
Scream into the goddamn sky
I know we’re all…
I know we’re all gonna die
Respect Women
Hail Satan

Pretty
03:29
|
|||
|
They said I could be whatever I wanted when I grew up
Just as long as I made sure that I was pretty enough
Why are you so concerned about a smile on my face,
When all you care about is what’s between my legs?
Chorus:
Why are you always trying to bring us down?
It’ll take more than your ignorance to take us to the ground
Just because I look like this
Doesn’t mean I’m just some stupid bitch
Love the skin you’re in, dress however you want
Just as long as you make sure you don’t look like a slut
Be yourself they’ll love you for who you are
If you’re not too fat, too skinny, too short, or too tall
(Chorus)
Look me in the eye when you talk to me
Don’t fucking tell me what to do
I don’t owe a goddamn thing to you
Don’t tell me who I’m supposed to be
Just ‘cause you have a dick, doesn’t make you better than me
(Chorus) x2
So look me in the eye when you talk to me

Lipstick Stains Memphis, Tennessee
Punk rock started as a mode of rebellion and confrontation. It also started as a lot of loud noise. Memphis band Lipstick Stains are going to give you a dose of both. Dissonant, jarring, ferocious–the band barrels through explosive punk rock that does not shy away from a socio-political message as well as touching on mental health, addiction, self-esteem, and equality. ... more
