lyrics

Be Happy...

Unsaveable!

We have the smallest insight into society,
into our minds.
We know just enough to be afraid,
but not to stop.
Happy or not,
It's not the questions that I'm lacking.
But the answers,
To prosper!

Born a sinner, as may be given?
I was not taught to love.
Bleeding, scheming, burning, seething,
A glutton's punishment.
I spent my years in darkness thinking,
I don't deserve this much.
But I know if something loves me,
Then I'll have done enough!

Gimme visions,
Of death down from above.
If I don't,
Don't! Don't!
Buy enough!

Be Happy...

I keep on taking these pills for suffering,
But I don't take too much,
And I keep on spend spending to ease my burdens,
but I don't spend too much.
The money that drains my only veins is dry beyond belied,
And the only truth that sets me free,
Is buried deep beneath!

Gimme visions,
Of death down from above.
If I don't,
Don't! Don't!
Buy enough!

Be Happy...

Stop complaining [Just be happy]
Stop demanding [Just be happy]
Standing in fucking line!
Conform if you're to rise!

Born to follow [To the slaughter]
Ask no questions [Getting hotter]
You're just a battery!
Shut up and be happy!

Be happy!

Suffer, pull down with me,
We're peeling back all the layers.
Stop, spending and see,
Your life is more than payments!

[Lease your soul out]
Happiness, it ain't right.
But it is worth fighting for it.
So open the door,
And don't conform!

I do what I can to barely to survive,
I've earned my will to live.
Ain't no keepin' money heaps,
Cause that don't help me sleep!

Gimme visions,
Of death down from above.
If I don't,
Don't! Don't!
Buy enough!

Be Happy...

Between The Lies Adelaide, Australia

We gotta stop living in the past. We've spent too long reminiscing on what we were and not what we are now. We gotta revolutionise ourselves and write music that pushes the boundaries musically and mentally.
