The Underbelly

from DEMO by Alcoves

lyrics

Give me some, take it back,
I don't need anything you lack,
Break my bones, Call it quits,
Your bloody nose, your bloody lips

There's nothing better than a sealed letter,
With the name and address of the one you caressed,
When your mind is gone, and when your mind is flawed,
You start to latch on to an oncoming god

The brain turns into gray matter,
The plug isn't pulled, but the life is lost,
After all once you've lost free will,
What's left, what's left, what's left but a flawed cross

Save my life, ridicule,
Nothing goes bad, Under your rule,
Take me home, tuck me in,
I've lost a love, you've lost a friend

Show me how to proceed,
In day-to-day events and things,
Be polite, Overspeak,
Obnoxiousness makes knees go weak

Common courtesy doesn't mean a thing,
The underbelly overselling Valentines and wedding rings,
When the watchtower falls, and when death starts to call,
Where is your society, it lies splattered on the opposite wall

And when the truth decays, And when the sun breaks its rays,
And when gravity flips, we'll all fall into it,
The eternal abyss, Filled with bar scum and piss,
Don't say I didn't tell you so, I tried to warn you, But now the many's the few
