Ajax - Ajax Lyrics
1. Priced
with the cover of night
beg, pray
on your knees at their sight
it's nothing, nothing we can afford
in search of peace they will fight
kill, take
name the cost of your life
it's nothing, nothing we can afford
and they'll hold your hand
as they march you to your grave
2. Appeal to Heaven
cheapened by the ones you trust
broken, smile while you're fucked
it doesn't matter to them
keep margins high and your pay will come
or so they say when you crumble and drag
cheapened by the ones you trust
broken smile when you're fucked
appeal to heaven in a world gone deaf
sullen eyes and cracked lips signal the end
kept down with a knowing wink from the well-fed bastards
cheapened, broken, short-changed, kept down
appeal to heaven in a world gone deaf
3. Nothing
pointless days bleed into pointless nights
no moral compass, we follow no lights
we're losing
losing ourselves in the name of nothing
we're losing
losing ourselves in the name of shit
pains too much to bear, can't muster the will to care
am I in it alone or just along for their ride?
drown it or dose it, it's all the same
the gnawing feeling doesn't go away
we're losing
losing ourselves in the name of nothing
we're losing
losing ourselves in the name of shit
where there's no will there's no way
burrow and hide in the face of despair
shield your eyes or be face to face with nothing
4. Paper and Steel
on the streets, armed to the teeth
empire's skeletons awaken and feed
shut in, no way out
jackboots marching through our towns
locked down, for their gain
a fortress of paper and steel
power grows at the barrel of a gun
submission as a way of life
shut in, no way out
jackboots marching through our towns
locked down, for their gain
a fortress of paper and steel
