"Orwell (Demo)" lyrics
"Orwell (Demo)"
So you say it's all about credentials. What do you know about honor?
Surely you can overlook principle for some momentary incentive
These are the scales of justice, as long as they tip your way
But my face could never make the front page
I can hardly stomach it. I can barely keep it down
What I'm supposed to fight for. What I should be proud of
This ethnocentric falsehood. A nation of backseat drivers
In a shot-out car named Ego, that takes me nowhere
Won't be ruled by the media, won't be ruled by cathode ray
Won't pass any judgement based on your hall of the story
And you claim no hypocrisy in the existence of a Papacy?
Where's the separation of church and state?
How am I free? Or am I free at all?
This blessed screen let's you know exactly where I am
Market my information. I've been naked since birth

Evergreen Terrace - "My Heart Beats In Breakdowns" Busted scars cut wide open
Bleeding hearts drip to the floor
Waiting tender touches to heal unseen wounds
The brightest eyes can see right through me
Only her eyes are the remedy
Exit anger through...
Comeback Kid - "My Other Side" Well that's what I thought,
You always finish before we start.
Don't have to say a word.
Living for these moments.
Who's been let down?
Who's been dragged down?
Been through this so
Many times...
Hopesfall - "Waitress" These faces have fallen here before
Tired and blue
A light that bleeds unforgiving shadows
Her olive eyes repeat failure in every glare
A failure that mirrors itself with a foreign stare
Hold it...
Norma Jean - "Songs Sound Much Sadder" We'll be legends.
We are smashed men, still moving.
We've tried everything in the book.
No stranger to failure, death with a steady heartbeat.
Scratching into any surface it wants.
Joy and beauty...
