Track Name: Alba Gu Bràth: We were never allowed heroes
Let down by the silent who chose
We were never allowed heroes
Kept down, never willing to oppose
I watched it die
I watched it killed
By the hands of my people
I watched it squirm in agony
And squeal at the betrayal
I watched it die
I watched it killed
I saw the flag it's torn asunder
I saw the people in the square
And I could taste their anger

I say to you we rise to fight
Stand up for what is your birthright
This thing has stirred the people
Now there's no turning back
This union’s more than fragile
Don't move forward, just cut back
It’s time to storm the castle
It’s time to take things back
This unions more than fragile
Don't move forward, just cut back

Poisoned by their broadcast arrows
Fired into every burgh
Poisoned by their broadcast arrows
March our future to the gallows
I watched it die
I watched it killed
By the hands of my people
I watched it squirm in agony
And squeal at the betrayal
I watched it die
I watched it killed
I saw the flag it's torn asunder
I saw the people in the square
And I could taste their anger

We break in two and lose all sight
Against this rule we must unite
This thing has stirred the people
Now there's no turning back
This union’s more than fragile
Don't move forward, just cut back
It’s time to storm the castle
It’s time to take things back
This unions more than fragile
Don't move forward, just cut back

Alba
Gu
Bràth

It was was left to the cast of a die
Weighed heavily to one side

My people gripped by madness
‘Til the rocks melt in the sun
My people racked with sadness
‘Til the rocks melt in the sun
Track Name: Rotten: Time forfeit i've not forgotten
The passing leaves the taste more rotten
All chewed up and left to digest
Inside a predator
Ran like dogs this hare's a brass ring
Never caught another's plaything
All worn out, spent, broke and depressed
A failed competitor

I tried
I gave myself to help you profit
You paid shite, you got fat off it
I tried, I tried

You destroyed the camps
And left this a wasteland
You destroyed the camps
And kept the escape plan
You saved you
You saved you

False trust earned one faced coin flipping
Lessons learned two faced, one's slipping
More time to think more time to digest
Why you're such a replica
Seen too much to ever forgive
Kicked my crutch future abortive
All deceit that I have witnessed
Burned to my retina

I tried
I gave myself to help you profit
You paid shite, you got fat off it
I tried, I tried

You destroyed the camps
And left this a wasteland
You destroyed the camps
And kept the escape plan
You saved you
You saved you

Lies we're told
Cut your tongue
No more sound
The death of a predator
Hung from here
For all to see
No more sound
The end of a predator
Track Name: Broken Reflection: Teeth forced from gum
Never have I felt so numb

Don’t want to stay
Just want to breakaway
They’ve got me in these shackles
From my wrists down to my ankles
I still won’t pray
To your God I’m a stray
A heretic with morals
Plays no part in all your quarrels

You Pray
To your deaf God

My reflection’s plain to see,
It's broken, smashed, littered round me,
The shards are tearing at my feet,
Cuts like your pestilent conceit,
My deceit

You Pray
To your deaf God

Blood salts the Earth
Ever spilled since my birth

This whole shade’s grey
The shine just rusts away
They have me in their stockade
Far beyond this endless blockade
I still won’t pray
To your God I’m a stray
A heretic with standards
Who is done with walking backwards

You pray
To your deaf god

My reflection’s plain to see,
It’s Broken, smashed, littered round me,
The shards are tearing at my feet,
Cuts like your pestilent conceit,
My deceit

Ever caught sight of your diseased reflection
Every imperfection of your pock marked complexion
Grinning through ground teeth no hope of redemption
Your weight makes it hard to breathe
My fists are bound so I can’t thieve

You pray
To your deaf god

My reflection’s plain to see,
It’s Broken, smashed, littered round me,
The shards are tearing at my feet,
Cuts like your pestilent conceit,
My deceit
Track Name: Gnawed by Pigs: The bile
Has reached my mouth
Retched up
And forced back down

Face, smashed
By the brick of opposition
Fall back down into submission
Teeth, cracked
Through jagged stumps they make admissions
Filled with lies and stark omissions

They might come and take us all away
Punishment for leading you astray
Gnawed by pigs
Gnawed by pigs

Break, glass
For escape without admission
All lies learned through your tuition
Drink, fast
They come at once with prohibition
Numbers thinned by their attrition

I want you to take all this away
I want you to take all this away
Gnawed by pigs
Gnawed by pigs

Face smashed
Teeth cracked
Break glass
Drink fast
Gnawed by pigs
Track Name: King of Dogshit: Wake and see disgrace
Is all that I’ve left here
Rubbed in my own face
The basics of new fear
All this time, forced in line
made to ingest filth
Beneath the grime and hardening slime
struggle to take breath

Why don’t we fucking break it?
They are never going to admit
That we are the kings of dogshit
Paid in salt that’s ill afforded
Never have we been rewarded
Broken down and forced towards it
Seed of the system
My future’s pissed on

Resting on my tongue
Your flavour of hatred
Stolen to my lung
The poison on your breath
All this time, forced in line
made to ingest filth
Beneath the grime and hardening slime
struggle to take breath

Why don’t we fucking break it?
They are never going to admit
That we are the kings of dogshit
Paid in salt that’s ill afforded
Never have we been rewarded
Broken down and forced towards it
Seed of the system
My future’s pissed on

As I reach the horizon it slows
And the specks in the wind turn to crows

have you seen me
my mirror hides me

Cut myself with my broken reflection
A life without hope and no hope of direction
Cut myself with my broken reflection
A life without hope and no hope of redemption
Track Name: Pure Jakebawlocaust: Mummy’s boy in studs and patches,
Full of pish and tattoo scratches,
Bevy problem, massive ego
That stinking cunt’s a fucking cheapo
Drinking strongbow from a tea cup
Smoking rollies, puking shit up
It’s a cider holocaust
A pure jakebawlocaust

Pure. Blind. Drunk
I don't know what you're living for
Pure. Shite. Drunk
You're fucked and you still want some more

You're fucked and you still want some more
Until you're spewing on the floor

Pure Jakebawlocaust
Pure Jakebawlocaust

Breath so foul and crusty with froth
Which is odd, you're drinking mouthwash
Feed that dog, its weight is under
But you've spunked your cash on cider
Drinking strongbow from a tea cup
Smoking rollies, puking shit up
It’s a cider holocaust
A pure jakebawlocaust

Pure. Blind. Drunk
I don't know what you're living for
Pure. Shite. Drunk
You're fucked and you still want some more

You're fucked and you still want some more
Until you're spewing on the floor

Pure Jakebawlocaust
Pure Jakebawlocaust

Tap me some cash for a bus wee man
Or I'll punch your cunt you fucking bam

Pure jake baw
Away and smell yer maw
Track Name: Wage Decay: Fuck it
I’m done today
Don’t want this anyway
Fuck this
I’m done with all your pish
Down tools
This work’s decay
It funds my enemy
Down with
Your kind and all their pish

You make me sick
Ruled by your stick
I resent this

Up brick by brick
Your savage clique
I construct this

I Sigh
Give in
I Sigh
Live to…(spend)

….(Spend) to live
This debt was due by yesterday
I can’t pay today
Live to spend
I’ll sort this out another day
I need this new

Fell it
This rot’s to stay
Can’t save it anyway
Fell it
This mould has taken hold
Burn it
To purify
Cleanse it and crucify
Burn it
This mould has taken hold

You make me sick
Ruled by your stick
I resent this

Up brick by brick
Your savage clique
I construct this

I Sigh
Give in
I Sigh
Live to…(spend)

….(Spend) to live
This debt was due by yesterday
I can’t pay today
Live to spend
I’ll sort this out another day
I need this new

They’ll make you think you chose it
When in fact you swallowed bullshit
Choked it down and thanked them for it
I don’t want this
Every time you give your consent
They pour in some more wet cement
Fix your feet right to their pavement
I don’t want this
Every time I bite my mouth shut
Spitting out my cigarette butt
Drawing blood from another cut
I don’t want this
I am so sick of this
kill me

Give in
Kill me
Track Name: Sand and Dust: Shrine to all of our shams
Broken down
Broken to make
Make the dust into grammes
Broken down
Broken to build
Build the pens for the lambs
Broken down
Broken to dust
Dust in mouth, on my hands

Stitch my eyes
I don’t care

We don’t want it - you can fucking keep it
One hand round my neck and the other in my pocket
We don’t want it – you can fucking keep it
Never have I had a voice but never will I submit
We don’t want it - you can fucking keep it
One hand round my neck and the other in my pocket

Stitch my eyes
I still see

Nails hammered in to the sand
Falling down
Failing to land
Land this vessel, disband
Falling down
Failing to stand
Stand by the minute hand
Falling down
Failing first-hand
Pour my drink on the sand

Stitch my eyes
Blind to thee

I don't know how things have come to this
Living in your kingdom drenched in pish
I don't think that I deserve all this
Drowning in this waste and caring less
