Deadlock - Deadlock (2018)

Deadlock - Deadlock Lyrics

1. Repetition

open your mouth
you've got something to say
your two cents dropping every day

never ending competition
all I head is repetition

words as weapons
turn them on yourself
it's not my fault
you're good at nothing else

twisting facts into fiction
you'll become a contradiction

2. Satisfy

every day they ring the bell
feed you in a living hell
under the thumb til the day you die
all they need to do is satisfy

satisfaction

eat work sleep repeat
they see your life as a balance sheet
just a number don't ask why
all they need to do is pacify

satisfaction

satisfy, pacify, satisfy, pacify you

3. Never Get Me

I don't wanna be
a victim of society

no I don't wanna be
another waster on a drinking spree
I don't wanna deal with this
I don't wanna deal with you
I don't wanna get lost in space
or be part of the human zoo

no
never gonna get me

time after time they do it again
to sink their claws and suck me in
made my mind up from the start
that's not me I want no part

never gonna get me

no
never gonna get me

4. Tunnel Vision

play the game
join the line
waste your time
what for?

resentment growing in my head
hammering all day
gotta get out cause you can't lose
if you don't play
surging through the crowds
people all around
but I see nothing and I hear no sound

tunnel vision I don't wanna see
tunnel vision all the bullshit around me
tunnel vision I'm not aware
tunnel vision because I don't care

world rushing by and I can't keep up
stuck in the middle life's in a rut
there's something not right what did I miss?
we weren't built to spend our lives like this

5. Don't Wanna Know

doped up
strung out
waste of time
no doubt

don't wanna
don't wanna know

passed out
bragging rights
don't give a fuck
what you did last night

6. Instant Gratification

take a hit quick fix
it's like a drug
zoned out locked in
time to pull the plug
conversation is now
a thing of the past
just how long
can society last

I don't wanna think no more
I don't wanna feel no more
I don't wanna think no more
I don't wanna feel no more

reality and culture
flushed down the drain
no more feeling
just increase the pain

instant gratification (fuck you)

7. Sentenced to Death

don't bother trying to come around
we all know what you did
take your barely living carcass
and throw it off a bridge

sentenced to death

hammer comes down

fear, pain and misery
you fucking make me sick
if I had my chance
if I had my way
I wouldn't make it quick

8. Back Against the Wall

1-2-3-4
chased down forced into a corner
trying to hold my ground
shadows hiding faces
and there's danger all around
faceless hostiles closing in
and I'm trying to catch my breath
can't see a way out
then again I know I won't be next

back against the wall

there's no other way out
and they've sealed off every door
whatever happens next
you know I'm coming back for more
flying fists flying feet
there's bodies in the street
they may have filled me in
but I still took a few with me

backs against the wall

9. Paper Politician

the moral high ground
is where you like it best
pat your friends on the back
and then condemn the rest
condescending speeches
worth their weight in wood
but what the fuck's it matter
cause it makes you feel good

paper politician
self-serving scum
paper politician
wanna see you run

you gentrified their streets
now they're hanging by a thread
romantic dream of someone else's
streets turned red
talking down to people
you're a class war thug
you're so intellectual
you're so fucking smug

paper politician
educating who?
paper politician
you're the fucking fool
