Jehst – Falling Down Lyrics
Lyrics
Verse 1
- Drinking in electric lady land
- Conversate with the crazy man
- Where the babies sip baby cham'
- And dames babysit Damien
- Plagued by the everyday pain of a pantomime palladium
- Players duckin buckshots in the cranium
- Lost on a path of pre-destined devastation
- They're dishin out medication in many forms
- I meditate on millennium metaphors
- A tour-de-force of fornication
- A thought-police state dictates to the whores of a sleaze nation
- Discreet segregation
- Infinite degrees of separation, we celebrate creation
- Creating new means of our destruction
- De-sensitised to the violence, the carnage is cartoon
- It's Televised to your front room
- Guns boom, pictures that poison the young
- We're highly strung
- A slugfest for the scum
- But I ain t givin up cause I'm driven by the drum in drunken tongues
- I talk up at the sun but I ain t givin up
- Nah
Chorus
- Rain clouds breakdown my cardboard wall of sound
- And now nobody hears when I'm calling out
- It's like they cover their ears
- Say my tears are the tears of a clown
- Please help me
- I'm falling down
Chorus
- My silver tongue spits gold bars
- Bring an amber glow to cold hearts
- Show love to my close spars
- Living their lives so fast
- While our foes slow dance with Diablo
- Most can't cope with the agro, watchin' the rats grow
- Led astray by a modern day pied piper in a lab coat
- It's code red, white lines blue movies
- And media scapegoats provoke defence
- I vent fears with a broken pen
- And shed tears for the hopeless
- Approaching the future with a clear focus
- Frozen below the mushroom clouds
- And we're much too loud to be allowed to speak out
- Cause the people might freak out
- A free man with his hands tied, died buried below the landslide
- Rigged by the sidewinders
- Wise to the way that the lies are applied as a social science
- To those who show signs of defiance
- The fire burns
- We learn ways to survive as the world turns
- Look away from the flames as the fire burns
- We learn ways to survive
Chorus
- Rain clouds breakdown my cardboard wall of sound
- And now nobody hears when I'm calling out
- It's like they cover their ears
- Say my tears are the tears of a clown
- Please help me
- I'm falling down
