Lyrics

Forty Ways

[Verse 1]

Drink all day, fuck all day

Crush all day, grind away

Starting wars, seething whores

Closing doors, power chords

Open wide, scratch your eye

Bite the sky, fallen lie

Noise all day, find a way

Kill the daze

[Chorus]

Forty ways to hold you down

Hold you down

[Verse 2]

Low all day, high all day

Disarray, violate

Pay to play every day

Static ways, crystal days

Open wide, scratch your eye

Bite the sky, fallen lie

Noise all day, find a way

Kill the daze

[Chorus]

Forty ways to hold you down

Hold you down

Forty ways to hold you down

Hold you down

[Guitar Solo]

[Refrain]

Open wide, scratch your eye

Bite the sky, fallen lie

Noise all day, find a way

Kill the daze

[Chorus]

Forty ways to hold you down

Hold you down

Forty ways to hold you down

Hold you down
