lyrics

Sleep dead with the fishes
Give a medal to me
Tell me I'm just vicious
And I'll start up your party
Yeah, it's funny how we act with no smacks across our face
But, when we give one smile back, we suddenly get grace

It's my turn to judge us
x2

Let go of your confidence, man
You know you're just lying
You're no brother of a providence
And your beauty is dying
Yeah, it's funny how you act when your elders show you life
But, when you give one smile back, they think you can't lie

It's my turn to judge us
x2

Sleep dead
Give a medal to me
I'm vicious
And I'll start up your party
Funny, how you act with no smacks across your face
But, when you give a smile back, you suddenly get grace

It's my turn to judge us
x2

Prisoner (2014)
by Birth of Joy

If you like Nirvana and The Doors, you'll love Birth of Joy. Interesting mashup + PSYCHEDELIA?! If you dislike either, Birth of Joy is not limited to those styles. You will not be disappointed. Patrimony
