Don’t let those dirty words penetrate the skin
The river breaks its banks and the thoughts come rushing in
The water looks clean but it’s not safe to drink
One man and his rib
A snake and a fib
You spend all your time looking to him
Trying to fill your guts with that warm feeling
You think that he’s smiling but he’s just showing teeth
That sun on your skin
That’s science
Not him
The chances of this were always pretty small
The fact that matter came together at all
We were all born with a god shaped hole
But you made the choice to fill yours
His creatures will kill in the name of him
The vultures will pick the bones clean
There’s a place for you to rot in the ground
There’s no place for you above the clouds

Wires
00:36
|
|||
Set the house on fire
Untangle all my wires
I'm having all the wrong thoughts
Bury my desires
A moment so long a go
A picture I can still see
Has fucked me

Weeds
01:28
|
|||
There's beauty in the weeds
In their will to succeed
Bring down the tallest trees and to break through the concrete
Like a dormant little seeding
Waiting for the heat
I'm waiting for the heat
Love will grow strong but lust will bolt and fall
If you grow it fast
If you grow it tall
Will it be strong?
Will it last at all?

In My Lap
00:48
|
|||
I've been waiting for something to happen
For something to drop to the earth in my lap
And you can't take it back
I guess this is what it feels like
To lose

Pale Blue Dot
00:44
|
|||
There will come a time when the human race is gone
And even the brightest stars go dull
The smallest cog in the wheel that turns
In some forgotten corner of the universe
And we won't find the meaning of life
Don't we just die?
And I don't want to go it alone
Chasing my thoughts
When all significance is lost
Living on this pale blue dot

Leeches
03:21
|
|||
You leeches must eat
Go on and suck all the life out of me
You worms must feed
Breaking me down into parts that are no longer seen
See I've been looking for some space and now I'm lost in it
Never coming back to earth
I'm afraid it's gonna burn
My friends are slipping through the cracks and I am trying to pull them back
I'm getting tired
I'm filled with doubt
And I am slowly burning out
My door's always open
My days are always the same
I don't sleep real well these days
I've been praying for the rain
I think I miss the heartache and wasting time in drink
Give me some time to think
Just make it rain on me

Easy To Miss
01:17

I've got a lot of questions but there's no way i will ask them
I don't want to wreck the flow or hint at any tension
There's a black cloud over my head and a black dog at my feet
And I hate this skin because it no longer fits
Let alone all of the marks that are in it
Bumped and bruised and a little hurt
Waiting for the rain like a seed planted in the dirt
Bumped and bruised and a little hurt
I've got a lot of questions but there's no way i will ask them
I don't want to wreck the flow or hint at any tension
There's a black cloud over my head and a black dog at my feet
The rats fill the deck of this sinking ship
And I feel dirty
I feel so unclean

Float

There's no difference between the deep and shallow when you're floating calmly at the surface

That Panic
01:09
|
|||
Twisted thoughts
You've had a good run but can't run me anymore
Racing heart
That panic when you can't put the words to thoughts
Lead the horse to water but you can't make it think right

Spite Drought
01:23
|
|||
She watered the rest of the garden but left my hops to die
Spite drought
They withered away like our love
She watered her plants but left me to dry
I am preaching but not to the choir
She soaked my last match to reignite the fire
Deep in her stomach like the one that burns in mine

I wanna be sedated
There's a mess and I can't face it
Don't be angry
I've been disappointing lately
I've been flaky
Yeah, I've been disappointing lately
I wanna be sedated
There's a mess and I can't face it
Don't be angry
I've been disappointing lately
I've been flaky
Yeah, I'm so tired my bodies aching
Should it be this complicated?
Wanna ask how I feel maybe?
And my guts sink like a stone
When my head hits the pillow the tales start to unwind
Begin to twist
Begin to bend
They start throwing fists out blind
Legs kicking, lungs screaming like a child felt deprived
It's a tune I hear so often but I can't work out it's time

Threats Hobart, Australia
Threats enjoy playing too many notes, too quickly for their own ability and screaming about what troubles them from stages cluttered with guava Cruiser bottles. When it comes to bands, as with life itself, you can choose to sit on the fence. If you do so with Threats, the fence might splinter, and you will be impaled. So why not jump down and take the plunge with them into fervent oblivion. ... more
