[Intro: Sample]
Louder!
Louder!
Louder!
Louder!
Louder!
Louder!
Louder!
Louder!
Louder!
Funky!
[Verse 1: Drew Simollardes]
Rape me of my innocence
Amidst these cold and rainy days
There's so much hate beneath the sky
My inspiration's all washed away
[Pre-Chorus: Drew Simollardes]
So tie me down and cut me up
And pour my blood upon the Earth
No helpful hands to hold me up
And I could give a fuck for all that it's worth
Breathe in, breathe out but take a closer look
Because your life is laced, and now it's got you hooked
The hunter's become the hunted
When it rains, it pours
An instinctive push, you better lock your doors
[Chorus: Drew Simollardes]
Take a look around
Take a look around
Take a look around
Take a look around
Take a look around, tell me what you see
It's upside down, skewed permanently
Take a look around, tell me what you find
Just an empty search through a foreign kind
[Verse 2: Drew Simollardes]
I'm sickened by this odious scent
Gently drifting on the breeze
A wave of lust turning love to dust
And now we all fall to our knees
[Pre-Chorus: Drew Simollardes]
So cut me down and turn me loose
And spill my thoughts upon the page
A hopeless attempt to redefine
Between our skyline and the Seventh Stage
Breathe in, breathe out but take a closer look
Because your life is laced, and now it's got you hooked
The hunter's become the hunted
When it rains, it pours
An instinctive push, you better lock your doors
[Chorus: Drew Simollardes]
Take a look around
*scratches*
Take a look around
*scratches*
Take a look around
*scratches*
Take a look around
*scratches*
Take a look around, tell me what you see
It's upside down, skewed permanently
Take a look around, tell me what you find
Just an empty search through a foreign kind
[Post-Chorus: Drew Simollardes]
Tell me what you see
(Take a closer look)
Tell me what you find
(Take a closer look)
Tell me what you feel
(Take a closer look)
Close up
(Close up)
[Bridge: Drew Simollardes]
*scratches*
Take a look around
Take a look around
Take a look around
Take a look around
Line 'em up!
*sample*
It's permanent
Permanent!
[Outro: Drew Simollardes]
(Get on or get off, give up or give in)
You better check your source
You better lock your doors
And take a closer look
Because the choice is yours
Get on or get off, give up or give in
Get on or get off, give up or give in
Get on or get off, give up or give in
Get on or get off, take a look around!
[Sample]
