An Despondent Propensity Lyrics by E-Cig

Big Pete’s Greatest Hits

2018

Once all of the smoke has cleared
Just five of us were left
And before we could shed a tear
Six others were dead
The faces of the children
The look in their mother's eyes
None but with a heart of ice
Could bear not to cry
C, C, G, G, G, F, F, F, F, F, now back to C
When will it be over?
When will we be free
To love one another
Like our own family?
The government's against us
There's nowhere to hide
We have to work together
To obliterate their lies
They're smashing in our windows
They're breaking down our doors
They'll torture any man who says
That there will be no more
They feed off our despondence
They eviscerate our hope
But they know that if they kill us
Our voices only grow
(pass the shvantz dude)
(thanks, man)
C, G, G, G, F, F, F, F, oh now C
I can't handle all your heartlessness
My heart can't handle all your heartlessness
Oh, my heart can't handle all your heartlessness
Oh, my heart, no can't handle all your heartlessness
Your heartlessness, you're so heartless
They're smashing in our windows
(my heart)
They're breaking down our doors
(can't handle)
They'll torture any man who says
(all your heartlessness)
That there will be no more
(your heartlessness)
(heart-uh C, C)
They feed off our despondence
(my heart)
(G, G, G)
They eviscerate our hope
(can't handle)
(F, F)
But they know that if they kill us
(your heartlessness)
(oh F, F)
Our voices only grow
(your heartlessness)
(now back to C)
(C, G, G, G, F -er C minor, D minor, F, F, G)
