Breakthrough
Zilverbacks Dec 2019
Steady if your soul hurts, oh your on it
Dive in but don't drown on your verbal *****
You were caught up in a shitstorm
Ready to reform
It's time
Giving it up

If I could fight through the worst
Dice with devil 'cause the silence hurts
Go on have another hit to see
Let it set you free
Please.
Silently screaming
Giving it up

Like you used too
Like you always do
Just Like you

Instead she’s made it all worse, calm to chronic
Pipe up but don't choke
Maverick or moronic
Never to anticipate pain
Pay to bleed again
It's time
Giving it up

Like you used too
Like you always do

Firing your old thoughts, over shot it
Clear cut but still dirt on you have you forgot it
You were coasting in a slipstream
Never to be seen
Its time

If I could fight through the worst
Dice with devil 'cause the silence hurts
Go on have another hit to see
Let it set you free
Please.
Silently screaming
Giving it up

Like you used too
Like you always do
Like you used to
Like you always do
Like you used too
Like you always do

Prick & The Princess
Zilverbacks Dec 2019
See it that you’re lonely and he’s not your type
You can be we all are ***** - empty pints
Clearly failing to disguise, what everyone can see besides
The guy who’s ‘call to arms’ around you
The guy who’s ‘call to arms’ around you

Usually she shouldn’t see, social suicide
Instead she’s bed the one *******
Blood boiling lipstick red
Stains on the setting that surrounds you
Stains on the setting that surrounds you

Even though you know you owe it all to him
You fantasise, your legs entwined on another’s skin

But I see it in your eyes, that you won’t leave him
Be a future bride with nothing but the ring
Behind the veil all your life hatin’ on him
So get out, get up, go. Leave.

Stop staring stunned and stupid from your sink window
Dreams, flashbacks oh fears and that, you’re free to roam
Barely really getting wet, from the guy who pays **** all respect
To the girl who’s ‘call to arms’ around him
To the girl who’s ‘call to arms’ around him

See it that your only way to copes to lie
Unaware the price to pays not only time
Emphasising those who wait, ‘til they’re to spun out to set it straight
With the guy who’s ‘call to arms’ around them
To the guy who’s ‘call to arms’ around them

‘Cause even though you know you owe it all to him
You fantasise, your legs entwined on another’s skin

But I see it in your eyes, that you won’t leave him
Be a future bride with nothing but the ring
Behind the veil all your life hatin’ on him
So get out, get up, go. Leave.
Zilverbacks - ***** & The Princess
Lyrics by Chris Harris
***** & The Princess is a powerful exclamation of the absurdity of being with the wrong person, the unnecessary pain it causes and the necessary courage it takes to move on. Denial is the refusal to grasp reality, too often in a relationship it's easier to deny the truth and continue a fictitious romance, continue lying to yourself and continue feeling incomplete, than it is to go your own way.

Raft Of Medusa
Zilverbacks Dec 2019
I've been, losing my mind
Its good some nights, not this time
I've been, trying to find
The sense in **** subdued my mind

So deep, shallow insight
Morals gone, pendulum swings by
I'll breathe, iced outside
Shadowed thoughts oh I'm colour blind
Oh sea

The once wise guy he can't comply it's fear
Self-deceptive, tinnitus in his ear
Disappear

I've been I've been I've been asking WHO AM I?
I've been I've been I've been asking, WHO, AM I?

Saline sea, don't quench our thirst
One man's cure is an others curse
Why me, vast universe
The sane forsaken the strength immersed

Align the rails that shake
Misunderstood defines insane
Sky reach, far as ****, mate
State of mind, oh mines a state

Find me, the great escape
Ascend from cave, illuminate
Dividing, what's fear what's fake
I fear whats here's not helping
Its my restraint

The once wise guy he can't comply, it's fear
Self-deceptive, tinnitus in his ear
Disappear

I'll smile as I walk by, agree with lies lose the tick of time
I'll smile as I walk by, agree with lies.

Ultimatum
Zilverbacks Dec 2019
I see you smile in all your entirety
I can't stand the amber haze, the fire inside of me
Kick-start my heavy heart, don't leave me on the line
I want you, you know too
Will we fall or fly

Are we in denial, hiding reality
I cant stand the tidal wave
Oh riptide oh carry me

Ohhhhh no I won't wait forever
This smokescreens killing me
I can't let you
Continue to tease, see I say
Why's the one I want the one and only I can't reach

Fear to feel alive though, your thoughts caught spiralling
Can't stand to hesitate, the shine blinds me
Kick off or cave in, ultimatum decide
I want you, you know too
Will we fall or fly

Are we in denial, hiding reality
I cant stand the tidal wave
Oh riptide oh carry me

Ohhhhh no I won't wait forever
This smokescreens killing me
I can't let you
Continue to tease, see I say
Why's the one I want the one and only I can't reach

Are we in denial, hiding reality
I cant stand the tidal wave
Oh riptide oh carry me

Ohhhhh no I won't wait forever
This smokescreens killing me
I can't let you
Continue to tease, see I say
Why's the one I want the one and only I can't reach

Real Lies
Zilverbacks Dec 2019
How long ‘til you realise
All is gone and all is futile
And there’s a way you’ve seen it all before
Felt the knife, locked the door
Thought I knew better
Thought I knew more
But there’s a way you felt I know
There’s a way you felt it I know

Better not remind me of, who I am
Better not remind me of, where I stand
But there’s a way you felt it all before

How long ‘til I realise
All your love was in disguise
As demons knocking at my door
**** the angels deafened to cry calls
Thought you knew better
Than to ****, **** with my heart
There’s a way you felt it, I know
There’s a way you felt it I know

Better not mind me of, who I am
Better remind me of, where I stand

Never thought I could feel this way
Seems to me there’s meaning in the day
You never even realised, you
Sat down and washed your eyes
But there’s a way you felt it I know
There’s a way you felt I know

Better not remind me of, who I am
Better not remind me of, where I stand
There’s a way you felt it all before

Suppose I better let her go, then i’ll never really know
Suppose I better let her go, suppose I better
Suppose I better let her go
