Dead Branches from Big Sir by Crash Rickshaw

Counting crimes in your mind but you’re not alone;
Man the “us vs them” – has gotta go
Never knew conviction loses your home

Hate ‘em till you need ‘em
Needle through the eyes
The ayes have it
Send the embers to the sky

Saw this angel in a fire the last night
Said she’d tell me all the secrets to life.
“you’ll live; you’ll die; and in between you’ll cry” but when she said that
death “is overrated”
I knew I’d fight

Gave it all and they said it was not enough;
Never knew that your value was optional
Won’t wait until your dead to celebrate your life

Fake it till you make it
Lie to your demise
Pick up all the pieces
Send them to the sky

Saw this angel in a fire the last night
Said she’d tell me all the secrets to life.
“you’ll live; you’ll die; and in between you’ll cry” but when she said that
death “is overrated”
I knew I’d fight

Dead branches, when they burn send embers to the sky
Those embers, they land on their mansions and ignite

Saw this angel in a fire the last night
Said she’d tell me all the secrets to life.
“you’ll live; you’ll die; you’re offered suicide but when she said that
death “is overrated”
I knew I’d fight
