Under a blood moon in the shadow of our doubts
We try to figure it out
Waiting on commands from the first to make a sound
to tell us where we stand
A lesson from a from a fuck up or a new way on
From this day forward I know what must be done
A fading faith in a pretty face
Onward and awkward, all inhibitions gone
Beneath subhuman underneath a burning sun
All thinking we're the one
We're all just one bad idea from
Coming unglued and undone
I was young once and guitars looked good on me
From creators to consumers we were dragged down
Can't win my waking ours back from the brink
In this hell I've made, to our downfalls we'll drink

Slither through oblivion,
Trying to hold your head high
Withering away in
Routines that fit you fine
A patient waiting out
Of constant struggling
Surviving the mundane
And it's Monday again
A fog of war falls, but no one calls these days
The potential for so much so much of it a waste
The hours between sun to sun, to another Sunday
Now you just wake and wince and whinge a "for fucks sake"
Fell too far and charging to what's worse
What you do is all you are and all you're worth
Headfirst into new adventures, now it just hurts
Your will to see the world got kicked in the dirt
We're a little too close to call but never speak
Too big to fail but our will is way too weak
Let it burn into desperation, willing to kill or pay
Not enough minutes carved into each day
It's a toxic philosophy that we're all more than this
What we're born into and how we chose to live

Old enough to know better ways to hide
and where you need to go
A lull in the laughter
It's all hitting home
All of me that the decade took
Shot me down with a single look
Born with answers after the fact
Too late to learn some tact
Date yourself with your passions
Love you can't take back
A succession of depressing ends
More failures than wins

I'd be out of here tomorrow if the wifi was strong enough
Access to oxygen or cigarettes
First ride bought or borrowed I'd head right out
Rest of my days with no regrets
Stir-crazy on this Earth,
this world ain't got nothing for me
But my records and my dogs
over the endless summers
Never done nothing for me
Best winters gathering dust
I'd be gone by now if my will was strong enough
Terraforming, populating and legislating
Simple astrophysics and just a matter of time
When the spacedust gets you high

The death of all creativity, inspiration runs dry
New found positivity and you can get by
Just as relentless as your first waking day
They can't be stopped, you can't be saved
When the cheques stop coming, time to grow a spine
Hungry and defeated, running out of time
Fighting for your space in the world, try to earn your spot
Break yourself for everyone else, you can be what you're not
Don't stop fighting, don't stop running
But you better stop believing that they ever stop coming
A captive audience, I stun you all silent
Punk Rock armed me with perception
Are you really happy or are you just just safe
Knowing it was all a waste

The Tracy Lords Hong Kong
Hell's house band THE TRACY LORDS is a chaotic smash n' grab of primordial sludge in molten tones and carwreck whiplash rhythms. With enough artfulness, drama and sadness to keep the young'uns interested and lo-fi charms for the Punk Rock cogniscenti, The Lords' hope-crushing heaviness is inflicted with the simple MO of set up, break the audience into little pieces and get out. ... more
