Cry Wolf

You know the type, who cheat their way out of bad situations
Abuse friends for favours, lie to relations
When the danger comes a-knocking, it comes knocking loud
You'll look for help, and there'll be no-one left about

You're a product of a shit situation
Another soul in a broken nation
And either way, you look like burning it down
I believed you, first time I heard
That in this messed up 21st century world
We have no choice, but to burn it down

In the belly of the beast, in this whole damned society
Is where you're stuck right now, forever you will be
You wanted our attention, you've got it in full force
Isolated from the help you need through being false

You're a product of a shit situation
Another soul in a broken nation
Either way, you look like burning it down
So I believed you the first time I heard
That in this messed up 21st century world
We have no choice, but to burn it down

I heard you whine and you cried until nothing was left
Shouting and screaming you howled your last breath
Fate came to claim you, to settle your debts
The final conclusion that played out... was death

You cried wolf

I can see you now
In a run down pub poncing fags off the regulars
Shorting on your gifts
But got a 50 pound habit, haven't you kid?
Some twisted fairytale
I feel sorry for the mugs still listen to your siren song
Don't get me wrong
It's just I crashed before, and you carried on
