Roar - Brothers Grim Lyrics

A plague
A plague of onyx snakes
Beset our house one day
Terrariums of our mistakes
Bedsets where serpents wait

Hey man, did you hear the shots ring out
Oh man, I didn't hear a thing
A dirtnap in the carpark
Where they spilled that gasoline
That we huffed and huffed
For days and weeks
When no one did a thing
I didn't see a thing, man
But I think that he saw me

And I'd double-bolt the door
Except we had to kick it in
It's just another tale of mystery
From the Brothers f*cking Grim
Another tragic ending
From the Brothers f*cking Grim

How high'd we get last night
Oh man, I don't recall a thing
These days all bleed together
In an incandescent haze
Superstrings sound better
Than they ever did before
So go up and up
Come down and down
Every day's a f*cking bore

And I'd sell drugs to make ends meet
But my friends are all dealing
It's just another trail we lost sight of
The Brothers f*cking Grim
Another hollow lesson
From the Brothers f*cking Grim

A plague! A plague
Oh, f*ck's sake
We dance macabre
At our own wake

Gonna move it to the city
Gonna use up my ambition
Gonna make it in the city
Gonna get some new addictions
The future glows suspended in a place where kids can flee
But if everybody's running out there, is it still the place to be
Living...

If you wanna call it that and I suggest you don't
If you wanna call it that and I suspect you won't

Generation debt
Educated death
In a world of idiots
Tell me, what's the point of this

Grandmother Wolf showed up here unannounced
And tore this place apart
What kind of life is this, is this a life at all
What kind of life is this, is this a life at all

Where'd my money go
I don't know
I got my check two days ago
This shit dissolves in burning palms
Was it even there at all
I curse myself and my mistakes
But I know just who to blame
Hell racks up a double-rent
And charges for the flames

And I'm so f*cking hungry
I could eat my f*cking hand
It's just another f*cking nightmare
From the Brothers f*cking Grim
Another f*cking nightmare
From the Brothers f*cking Grim
The truth is worse than fiction
From the Brothers f*cking Grim
