about

A song about hating hate, and the language that comes with it.

lyrics

Dying Language

Sharpened words to draw the line
I got not place for your world in mine
Cold intolerant bricks in the wall
Shades of grey inside us all

CHORUS
Don't you speak to me, don't you speak to me
I can't take your twisted words of hate
Don't you speak to me, let your dying language fade away

Old man tell me what's that you said
Why is your nose stuck in their bed
Born to this world alone and wet
Nobody knows which way we'll set

CHORUS
Don't you speak to me, don't you speak to me
I can't take your twisted words of hate
Don't you speak to me, let your dying language fade away

Razor tongues fall double sharp
Its warm red blood from every heart
Perfect broken spokes in a wheel
All of us different all of us real

CHORUS
Don't you speak to me, don't you speak to me
I can't take your twisted words of hate
Don't you speak to me, let your dying language fade away
