Thrash The West Songtext
von Lawrence Rothman feat. Amanda Shires

When your rolling helpless in the dark
Pleading to an empty crowd
When your seeing their hells in place of stars
And the silencers are pushing you down
I will live on embedded in this sound
Playing in loop keep your cool
Keep your calm

Well, hey
I know your selfless, classless, careless and charmed
Your beliefs, Your reasons, Your heart
You′re everything everybody wants
Well, hey
I know you're selfless, fearless, shameless, unsung
Your madness, beauty, your mind
You′re everything everybody taunts


When you go slow dancing in the house
Do you ever wonder who's looking in?
You sure seem to lose it well
Don't we all love to play pretend
Well I know your type
The kind that loves too much
When you got to know yourself
In the end was it who you are?

Well, how sweet sweet oh sweet it was before the west collapsed
Oh how sweet how sweet it was but the con could never last
The dream they taught you young when old didn′t stand a chance
Karma, pain lead us here
Karma came and bit us in the ass
And our house of cards was always bound to collapse

Long before I had you
Our new life was a fragile force
Unacknowledged I walk home used
Outside the rage of Saint Joan
The fiction lives on
With Caesar in the round their kingdoms long gone
He jesters laugh it off, so smug


Hey Hey we had it all
Anger, beauty and art
We were our own rulers here
But it backfired at the sound
How sweet how sweet it was before the great collapse
Karma, pain lead us here
Karma came and bit us in the ass
And now this fourth industrial future
Lays in the hands of the tech god-less
