Broken promises, zero reward
They sold us a lie, independence flawed
The eighties were bad, well is today worse?
Made to suffer from another Tory curse
Eat or heat now is the choice
Given the chance we wasted our voice
“Manage by ourselves, it’s the British way”
Watch the facts crumble until it’s too late
Vote to be independent you got it all wrong
You didn’t have the facts you just propped up the con
51 to 59 and it’ll be just fine
Not too good beneath the poverty line
Brexit barriers and Tory abuse
That’s what we did with our right to choose
More than just the lies on that bus
Just to make the country worse was it worth the fuss?

Was it worth the fuss?

No!

Horrific reality yet we close our eyes
See it too often and become desensitised
Death toll rises day after day
Turn off the news channels and it all goes away
Innocent people they didn’t stand a chance
Lives are extinguished but we barely share a glance
Children in the wrong place will never grow up
Laid dead in the rubble parents stare stunned
Graveyards are now rammed to the brink
The stench of death is really starting to stink
Makeshift morgues in any spare room
The dead family’s home is now a cold tomb
Innocent people they didn’t stand a chance
Lives are extinguished but we barely share a glance
Children in the wrong place will never grow up
Laid dead in the rubble parents stare stunned
No room for the dead, now everywhere is full
Unexpected tragedies, could happen to you

Unexpected tragedies, could happen to you

Cost of living riding high,
They stand back and watch as we die
Children, mothers, you and me
Punishing rejects of society
Energy prices, council tax
Communities die while they make stacks
Money prized from the poorest ones
Snatched by our rulers in enormous sums
Families stand in food bank queues
It's not their fault, there's nothing they can do
Lied to, conned and kicked in the shit
Rejects of society, a system unfit
Cost of living riding high,
They stand back and watch as we die
Children, mothers, you and me
Punishing rejects of society
Families stand in food bank queues
It's not their fault, there's nothing they can do
Lied to, conned and kicked in the shit
Rejects of society, a system unfit
The systems broken, they're the symptom [x4]
The system!

Worked To Death - DEMO

Where will you be when the planes take flight?
Where will you be when they leave you to fight?
You know they don't care and you know they never will
You know they'll exploit you for another cheap thrill
Worked to death for the launching of a rocket
Worked to death, for the lining of their pockets
Another fucking sycophant is sucking off the rich
Another lied to hustler dies in a ditch
They speak like it's for us but it's strictly made for them
Profiteering kills the planet but it's us that they condemn
Power grows, the line goes up and you're the one who suffers
Will you help your fellow man or merely blank the others?
Worked to death for the launching of a rocket
Worked to death, for the lining of their pockets
Another self-help Instagram is sucking off the rich
Another lied to hustler dies in a ditch
Will we come together as we're left behind to rot?
Will you turn to strength and love as they escape in yachts?
The coppers enter town to keep you in your place
We are facing the end of the human race
Worked to death for the launching of a rocket
Worked to death, for the lining of their pockets
Another self-help Instagram is sucking off the rich
Another lied to hustler dies in a ditch
Worked To Death

So called friends always bringing me down
Times I smile fade now all I do is frown
Everything I did had some kind of reason
Now I just can’t seem to find the purpose
I think I’m going to self-destruct
I can’t take it I’ve had enough
Normality starts to disrupt
Lessons in self-destruction
You stab me in the back yet I come back for more
Drink away reality until collapsed on a floor
Come back next day and do it all again
Self-destructive lifestyle when will it ever end?
I think I’m going to self-destruct
I can’t take it I’ve had enough
Normality starts to disrupt
Lessons in self-destruction
Falling ever further into my own demise
I can’t face reality do I live with all my lies?
If I don’t make a change today then when?
Fall short, make excuses, do it all again

when I saw the black lives matter manifestos and the band manifested itself against fascism, I thought: these guys are awesome, long life doom

DOOM is epic..simple as...

The Italian hardcore group’s latest is a powerful, claustrophobic album that rarely lets up its mathy, metallic assault.

Polish noise-crust outfit eschews the big Tragedy-esque riffs still popular with their US counterparts for scratchy claustrophobia.

The frantic and furious punk rock from this Sheffield band sounds like 7,000 motorcycles barreling down an empty highway.
