Listen to the Kids

male vocals, metal, grunge, edm retrospective, creepy, angry, industrial, black metal

You think you knew the kids down the street
You think you knew the strange family
Well let me tell you that you don't
You won't
And you don't

You think you knew the events that went on
Was all a family that liked to sing a song
But well ya don't
Oh you don't

But let me tell you that the torture house down the street
Was nothing you'd like to meet
And when you let them go
Off to eat 
Then you would make sure we were checked in on
But I was the one who was left in the dark
And they blamed all my things on the shame of my heart
I must've been wrong to be who I was
Must've been wrong 
What a dog, what a dog
Put him in the back
But I didn't know that I was under attack by you and them 
I am under attack by you and them 
It'll never be the end
If you don't listen

You think you know what went on in the house
You make little judgments that you think you know about
What happened to the pets
And what happened to the kids that didn't get to live
What happened to the mom who was disappearing down the street
What happened to the children that were running, running, running on their feet
And the screaming
And the screaming in the sand
They said you little terrorist
They'll kill you if you don't kill them first

You don't really know the kids we were
And you aren't really gonna be heard
To have a dumb story "I've all known it, it is fine"
But I don't want to pay no mind to the kids
And that's just what you did

And now that I am older you have the perfect plan
To tell me that the things I'm doing are not what I believe in
But you didn't listen to the kids
So I have nothing to say to you
No one listens to the kids
So I never wanted to be here too
BUT GUESS WHAT its my job
And so here I am, I stand
With the memory that you say never happened
That's okay 
I don't need you to believe what I went through

Cause they don't listen to the kids
And they are all the same its gonna be the way that it is
Don't listen to the kids
Nobody listens to the kids

But if I could just ask you this...
Would you listen to the mother fuckin kids
None of us wanted to be a terrorist
