lyrics

Good old blood stood in defiance
Subsequently bulldozed with silence
Bones of ancients burned
Their protest never heard
Money feeds a void needs filling
No eye can see down the hole we’re drilling
Dropped a pebble down
Swallowed by its own sound
Your eyes are cloudy, skull is thick
You’ll pay for making mother sick
One way or the other
We’re all murdered by our brother
So we pump the black up faster
to challenge God to stop us
To let there be light in our cubicles
Can’t you see we’re both protecting our assets?
You took that rubber check and cashed it
Wish the money lasted
So swallow your pride and shake hands with the serpent
‘cause no one’s perfect
A post-modern Jesus turns water to oil
A miracle bubbling up from the soil
Rubber bullets bouncing, bouncing off of saints
You tried to force your way on through the gates
With only your own hell to pay
May your burn in your own way
And if it’s not later today
Then it’s coming soon, I pray

about

Mouthbreather Portland, Oregon

Math rock, post-hardcore, and experimental folk walk into a bar. The sound person only provides them with 4 drink tickets, because they are a two-piece band called Mouthbreather.
Dynamic song structures and time signatures with no shortage of distinct melody and thoughtful lyricism. Something for everybody! Except maybe your aunt who might say “I don’t get why he has to do all that yelling.”
