Mouthpiece letra

When caught between the devil and the deep blue sea
You won't find me anywhere within that binary
Not drifting further out and thrashing violently
Nor listless and surrendering my being

There is no virtue, no freewill, no God
That will lift me from this dying awake
Just an ache in my limbs
Growing heavy with time
The persistent temptation to break

And with boundless delusion
We reach out a hand as we fall
And as darkness closes around us, we stand tall

Victor and vanquished suffer the very same fate
I do not intend to bear witness or participate

Suffer impending doom regardless of vantage
Perspectives are formed and carefully managed
We're treating the illness
Ignoring the source
The water is poison, we drank it by force

In a world of vivid colour, our eyes are beaten grey
Until all the hues of summer fade away
Bleeding away
An eternal winter around every dinner table
Cold and useless conversations
Cold and useless conversations

So, fuck it, laugh it up, boys
But just leave me out of it
This endless procession
This tireless bullshit

We never had a choice
Raised to be sycophantic
Bend the knee, fucking kiss the hand
Kiss the hand that feeds

When caught between the devil and the deep blue sea
You won't find me anywhere within that binary
Not drifting further out or thrashing violently
Just fold my hand and walk the fuck away

Victor and vanquished suffer the very same
Victor and vanquished suffer the very same fate
Do not intend to bear witness or participate

Suffer impending doom, regardless of vantage
Perspectives are formed and carefully managed
We're treating the illness but ignoring the source
The water is poison, we drank it by force

In a world of vivid colour, our eyes are beaten grey
Until all the hues of summer fade away
They fade away
An eternal winter around every dinner table
Cold and useless conversations
Cold and useless conversations

There's powerful voices screaming culture war, culture war
The powerful voices that make you feel powerless
But you're ill-informed
Powerful voices, sowing division, division
Powerful voices
Anything that divides us should burn, oh
Everything that divides us should burn first

And all these conversations will strangle us like weeds
But we're not powerless we're just a little bit naive

Victor and vanquished, victor and vanquished
Endure the culture war to ensure that we
Victor and vanquished, victor and vanquished
Are too distracted to identify the enemy
Victor and vanquished, victor and vanquished
Sit across the aisle, a manufactured hate
Victor and vanquished, victor and vanquished
Eat fucking shit and smile, suffer the very same fate
