When You Were True Metal

lyrics

Think back when you were still true metal
You knew where the raw power of music comes from
No orchestration save for symphonic strings
No relief from the pounding double kick drum

Don't we all have this persecution complex?
Don't we all sometimes long to invert the cross?
Don't you want all this sadness justified?
So lament the pagan rituals that we've lost

But now it feels you lack focus
Your aims all too diffuse
Not like when you had a fetish doll
With some McGuffin to chase down
The story picks up the pace
Discontent in the form of an artist
Paint brushed skin and all

Think back when you first heard twee pop
Some grotesque custom found only in a foreign land
North-Western Coast or across the Atlantic
Who knows what power these strange voices command?

Don't we all feel this seething rage?
Don't we all hate what threatens the things we love?
Don't we all wanna foment rebellion
regardless of what the new order consists of?
