Dead End Soldier
Rebellion's Anthem: Life's Descent in Dead End Soldier
Lyrics
Well yer sick of your job and you hated school
You're fed up with your job and despised your time in school
And you spit at advice and you break the rules
You reject advice and intentionally break societal norms
You pass out at night and wake up in puke
You frequently pass out drunk and wake up in vomit
And yer friends have all died there ain't no one left for you
All your friends have passed away, leaving you alone
And yer using yer words like a switchblade knife
You use your words aggressively, like a weapon
And you run to the darkness and hate the light
You seek darkness and loathe positivity or brightness
Yer drinking the blood of a wounded night
You metaphorically consume the negativity and pain of the night
While the vultures of madness are pecking out your eyes
Mental struggles are tormenting you, tearing your perspective apart
Dead end soldier
Emphasizing the state of being stuck in a hopeless situation
Dead end soldier
Reiteration of the hopeless state
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Repetitive emphasis on the desperation and hopelessness
Hey, hey, hey, hey
-Hey, hey, hey, hey
-Hey, hey, hey
-So yer pissed at the world 'cause it shat on you
You're angry at the world for treating you poorly
And you can't sort the lies out from the truth
You struggle to distinguish between lies and truth
Yer whole fucking life is all black and blue
Your life feels entirely bruised and battered
And yer staring down death like whoop-de-freakin'-doo
You face death with a dismissive, apathetic attitude
With yer bloodshot eyes all tired and glazed
Your eyes are exhausted and bloodshot
Yer the bastard king of runaways
You feel like an outcast, ruling over those who've run away
Yer running further everyday
You're constantly fleeing, avoiding facing reality
And you deny the extent of your decay
You refuse to acknowledge the extent of your deterioration
Dead end soldier
Repeated emphasis on the hopeless, trapped state
Dead end soldier
-Dead end soldier
