I don’t wanna meet your motherfucking band aid baby,
I don’t wanna see your motherfucking band aid baby,
I don’t wanna hear your motherfucking band aid baby,
I don’t wanna greet your band aid baby, band aid baby.

Gretchen

Gretchen got a gun for Christmas
Actually, it's not really like that but the result is the same.
She went to a party and met a guy there, they fell in love instantly
In a whirlwind of flowers & hearts & all you only see at the movies
Gretchen got a butcher's knife for her birthday
But, no, it's not really like that... She pulled out of all her projects
to move in a flat with her new boyfriend
They got carried away & bought a car & a dog & a brand new tv set
Gretchen's got a gun, Gretchen's got a knife
Gretchen's got razors, but it's not like that...
Gretchen got a razorblade for Valentine's day
Except it's not really like that... She fell down the stairs one day
And all her friends & family were standing by her bed
Her boyfriend the closest, hiding the little bloodspots on his hands
Do you get it now ? Do you get it ?

People are walking by my side.
I’m just here standing, not moving. Rolling eyes, clenching hands.
Watch their minds, feel their minds, catch their weakness,
focus on your hatred to blow them up. Make their heads explode.
This selfish crowd, this blind army,
how can’t they feel your pain, why don’t they care ?
Let them endure your sorrow, I want them so hard to suffer.
Words won’t come, my voice stays silent, I’m stuck in a speechless jail.
I need to shout out this rage inside me and the only way is to hurt them badly, to blow them up. Make their heads explode.
Something inside me is broken. I’ve lost my optimism
and that faith in humanity I had.
Your everyday’s problems make me want to melt your face off,
to peel your skin, so you’ll know how’s my pain, so you’ll carry my cross.
You will feel my suffering and you’ll get my scars.

Be a mom
02:58

They tell me I'm a muff
and i'm supposed to hide my stuff
Since birth that I am wrong
Abort my ideas and get along
They tell me I must be a mom
Forget what's really turning me on
Living at society's pace
10-day-make-up dripping on my face
Since birth that I'm too serious
And now I know that...
We are living in a farce
And I'm so pissed at the human race
They tell me I must be a mom
Forget what's really turning me on
Since birth that I'm too showy
And I'd rather hide my cavities
Living at society's pace
10-day-make-up dripping on my face
We are living in a farce
We are living in a farce
They tell me I must be a mom
Forget what's really turning me on
And I'm so pissed at the human race...
And I'm so pissed at the human race...

Play dead
01:48

People think I'm a monster
I'd rather say I live with my time
I just wanna be on top of the food chain
And then I never, never, never get down
I come to your house at night
Careful not to leave my prints on your shelves
Now's a good time to play dead
Today is a good day for suffering
"What I see is what I get"
So I'll help myself to your assets
It's no use covering your breasts
I'm gonna rip a smile on your face
Crawling under your bed like a baby
Crying for your mum when you see me
Today is a good day for suffering
Now's a good time to play dead
People think I'm a monster
I'd rather say I live with my time
I just wanna be on top of the food chain
And then I never, never, never get down

WE WILL NOT BURN
NOT ROT IN YOUR FLAMES
ARE WE ASKING FOR IT ?
PLEASE SAY IT
we are the descendents of the women you burnt
we are living creatures bearing the cross of the dead
we are working to put your fucking system to an end
we have the power to bury you all in the ground
WE WON’T BURN
NOT ROT IN YOUR FLAMES
WE’LL BURY YOU
