Regrets?

We had our salad days
When hopes and dreams are made
The parties and the haze
Those rose-tinted glasses
Then we had to work
Followed rules by the book
The plans we carved in stone
They started to erode
Then came the glory days
Followed by storms and rage
The wrong forks in the road
Those life defining moments
And in our autumn age
Our memories start to fade
The hopes and dreams we made
Are just distant memories
Do you live life without regret?
Do you make your bed and lie in it?
Do you care about those you pained?
The ones you hurt along the way.

Public image.

Why do you portray?
The state you’re in
How can you justify?
The way you’ve been
You try to act,
Like a man whose lost
Your public image
Will come at a cost
And I won’t apologise
Well I won’t feel any shame
And I won’t apologise for what I do
Well I won’t feel guilty for not believing you
I can see through your lies
I can see through your pretence
Your true colours will be shown
Diagnosis is no defence

The lies are spread
The truth has not been told
You just sit back
And watch it all unfold
The problems caused
The damage is done
But for one second
I don't think you've won
You tried to break me
You tried to break me
You tried to break me
But it didn't work
You were jealous of what I had
So you took it from me, took it from me
The truth is what you took
It wasn't for me, it wasn't for me
The lies are spread
The truth has not been told
You just sit back
And watch it all unfold
The problems caused
The damage is done
But for one second
I don't think you've won
You tried to break me
You tried to break me
You tried to break me
But it didn't work
You were jealous of what I had
So you took it from me, took it from me
The truth is what you took
It wasn't for me, it wasn't for me
You were jealous of what I had
So you took it from me, took it from me
The truth is what you took
It made me stronger, it made me stronger
It made me stronger
Than you'll ever be

The need for greed.

You never listen to a word we say
Our hopes and dreams just fade away
You do what you want to do
Our lives they have no meaning
News media spreads the hate
Social media seals our fate
The play station generation
A nation which has no feelings
You take what you want from us
We give it all without a fuss
Conditioned by your rules and laws
Your oppression seems like caring
News media spreads the hate
Social media seals our fate
The play station generation
A nation which has no feelings

Payback.

Inside I’m dying, but I know I tried.
To forget all the madness, get on with my life.
But you kept it going, you twisted the knife.
You have to see that’s it’s just not right.
I meant you no trouble, I meant you no pain.
But you kept it going, carried on with the game.
Now I’ll destroy you, I’ll rip you apart.
I’ll rip open your chest and spit on your heart.
If you’re gonna be a liar, then you’ve got to be tough.
I can take a lot of hassle but enough is enough.
I’m going to make you crawl to me... get on your bended knees.
That’s the only way that you will see
I know your lying and you know it to.
The bullshit you’re spreading, you know it’s not true.
The false accusations were shit from the start.
Now it’s caught up it will all fall apart.
The pain and the anger that I feel at night.
The feeling of anguish that I have to fight.
But it will be nothing to the pain that you’ll feel.
I’ll stomp on your head and wipe clean my heel.

Which side?
03:05
|

Stop sitting on the fence
Time to decide, which side you’re on
Make an educated guess
Time to decide, what’s right what’s wrong
What’s your defence?
Just ignorance, just disbelief
Your blinkered life
You happy? To listen to the lies?
Which side?
It’s time to stand up
To decide, which side you’re on
To make your mind up
To decide, what’s right what’s wrong
To make a change
Your ignorance, your disbelief
To start to THINK
Too stand up, stop listening to their lies

Reap the seeds.

Starving child, new fad diet
Abuse victim, page three starlet
Food bank poverty, fat cat Tory
Loan shark, pay day lender
Ten TVs are better than one
Remember you read it first in the Sun
But we reap the seeds they sow
An advert for adversity
Journalistic hypocrisy
It’s a system of atrocity
We reap the seeds they sow
Rotting teeth, the real thing
Child obesity, deep fried chicken
Council estate, sunshine holidays
Teenage insecurity, perfect bodies
Families fed on what they don’t need
A multi-media hypocrisy
But we reap the seeds they sow
An advert for adversity
Journalistic hypocrisy
Selling systems of atrocity
We reap the seeds they sow
Ten TVs are better than one
Remember you read it first in the Sun
Families fed on what they don’t need
A multi-media hypocrisy
