Such a useless cry / When the times define your life / You owe body and soul / What a life we have / In a useless mess a song protests / As they take it all away they say / You’re not alive until your belly’s full / So you stole everything that we needed / This is the first act / We want it all back / The curtain calls / let the puppets say
They think they own the world / The world isn’t big enough / We need to have a little more
You get what you ask for/ it’s not enough there’s always a little more
Remember what we had / They could’ve stopped / They saved an apology / They made up a story / Silently had it all / We just make the best of it / What a life to have / When it’s taken away / Without an exchange / You want more and more / We wont stop until we get it all back / This is the final act / Patience is what we lack / So we play our games / We steal the world
We think we have it all / The world is bigger than we see / So have a little more / As the useless cry / We think we own it all / The world is bigger than they need / So have a little more
You get what you ask for/ it’s not enough there’s always a little more
These seasons change / We’re still playing the same games / We will never change / The world won’t always be this way / I’m not sure of the purpose / These guesses are all questions / That lead to my distractions / So we wait for it all / We know there’s a fall ahead / We’re just guests in the world / We stole the life from it
Been following Somos for many years, feeling that they had an opus in them...well, here it is. Driving pop-punk sensibilities lend an upbeat tone in contrast to the grim lyrical proceedings, and they absolutely pull it off. Evocative music that's been on repeat for me all month long. RIP, Phil PaintedDogs
