Slave Beaver Revolt - Dead Weight

Selfishness stops at us
This song's not about anyone
I'm only myself; I fake nothing else
But if you're listening go fuck yourself

Deaf man ringing a bell
To a host that's stopped listening
Walking tall with a unloaded gun
Which way to aim
Which way to maim

Dead weight
Breeding hate
Living life rehearsed
Casket dragged through the dirt

We've all got demons and you're all mine
Cracking through one scratch at a time
This dream is not for me
When did we get so fuckin' weak

Dead weight
Breeding hate
Living life rehearsed
Casket dragged through dirt

King of segregation surrendered into decadence
Crawling into the age of severance
Stomp into the beaten ground in an unfound fit
Endless lies told inside that you'll never admit

You live for a fracture
Not something that's actual
Nothing's ever as it seems
Why not try a little empathy?

Balmed wounds creak
With every word you speak
Lash the whip back at us
At those you cannot trust

Makeshift bash, go fuck your gatecrash
Gated parties; making your own movies

A peek inside, what am I missing
Some cunts facing, the wind ass-kissing

What use is my dead weight
Lashing out at the sky
Crawling on my knees
To just lay down and die

Selfishness stops at us
This song's not about anyone
I'm only myself; I fake nothing else
I know you're listening, so go fuck yourself

Dead weight
Breeding hate

Dead weight
Breeding hate
Living life rehearsed
Casket dragged through the dirt

Dead man ringing a bell
To a host that's always listening
Sneaking in with a loaded gun
You know which way to aim

Dead weight
Breeding hate
Living life rehearsed
Casket dragged through the dirt
