THE PIST

1. UNSPOKEN

When convenience means more to you than the life of another
Accommodate your complacency and sacrifice your brother
Are you really that shallow, you can't take a minute to reflect
About the consequences of your actions, are you blind to the effect?

These are the words that are unspoken
This is the sound of silence broken
The voice of the voiceless shall be heard
And with our screams create new words…

How do you think it feels surviving only to be slaughtered?
A programmed existence, born and bred, then drawn and quartered
And you consume this death with a smile on your face
I bet if they could speak, they'd fucking put you in you place

These are the words that are unspoken
This is the sound of silence broken
The voice of the voiceless shall be heard
And with our screams create new words…

When convenience means more to you than the life of another
Accommodate your complacency and sacrifice your brother
You think you deserve a break today? Give them a break instead
Lives are wasted needlessly just to keep you overfed

These are the words that are unspoken
This is the sound of silence broken
The voice of the voiceless shall be heard
And with our screams create new words…


2. SMALL TOWN

Small town lives
Small town lies
You don't fit
In their small town minds

You grew up in a small town, you know you're different than the rest
And all the kids just put your self restraint to the test
So sick of the stupidity they broadcast and display
But they control the world we choose to live within today

Small town lives…they hide behind their
Small town lies…so what are gonna do when
You don't fit?
In their small town minds…

They think that you're a loser yeah, well ignorance breeds fear
They made your life a living hell, but you choose to persevere
Never bothered with the social games they all would play
You feel like you wanna make those fucking bastards pay

Small town lives…they hide behind their
Small town lies…so what are gonna do when
You don't fit?
In their small town minds…

Kicked out of school for reasons you never understood
Grow up fast, forget the past, your fucked up childhood
Get your act together and leave this shitty little town
Cause if you stay, you'll fade away or burn it to the ground


3. CREATURE IN MY CLOSET

As I lie here in my bed, the moon walks across the sky
I hear the sound of scraping and I open up my eyes
Shadows dance across the walls, as I strain my eyes to see
I focus on the closet door and it calls to me…

The creature in my closet only comes out when I'm pist
It takes my body prisoner, it's power I can't resist
It's people like you who let it loose when you damage me
It's locked inside the closet now, but you're turning the key

My mind goes back to yesterday and how you made me feel
You cut me deep when I was down, the time has come to heal
I've been too nice for far too long, of that there is no doubt
I reach for the closet door and let the creature out

The creature in my closet only comes out when I'm pist
It takes my body prisoner, it's power I can't resist
It's people like you who let it loose when you damage me
It's locked inside the closet now, but you're turning the key

It lurks inside of everyone, though most may hide it well
It waits and hates, anticipates it's release from it's cell
And those who choose to grind us down, you'll find nowhere to hide
Because deep within each one of us lives the animal inside

The creature in my closet only comes out when I'm pist
It takes my body prisoner, it's power I can't resist
It's people like you who let it loose when you damage me
It's locked inside the closet now, but you're turning the key

You're setting it free…
