Chin up! Chin Up! the end of the world doesn’t look like this and doesn’t start with a girl! She’s like radiation poisoning settling in your bones; I’m talking to you my friend but nobody’s home… There is no other way, at least that’s what my mother used to say. Hold your tongue boy it doesn’t get worse than digging up agony and clinging to hurt There is no other way; suck it up son you’ve gotta move on Trust me my friend; you’re better off now - if the stories are true then that girl is a loaded gun!

All the boys want your number, the girls want your face You never gave a damn about the politics of the norms and the freaks, the low or elite You’re just you and that’s good enough for me Hold your breath I think we’ve gone under Is that your anger, your rain or your thunder is it your heart escaping your chest I’d open my eyes but I’m scared to death

It’s been fun to watch but my eyes are done There’s something about all the violence and fun That evacuates the air from my lungs Something about you tells me that we’re done [here] Get mad all you want; I am out; this is over You’re not a warrior, saviour or soldier You’re just a clown with some bad joke beliefs Look on the bright side think what you’d achieve It’s hard to believe intelligence reigns here That bloodshed and violence are both commonplace here What will you see when your ending draws near? I hope for your sake that it looks like forgiveness it’s over now, It’s almost over

We gotta stop tearing each other apart Salt and pepper belong together like fear and the dark It’s only you, I’ve ever needed here So stop your silly grumbling and I’ll stop my venom dear Wisdom, fortune, violent, brave rabbit hole, safest place, Drugs, lust, habit, vice Collapsing walls, feeling fine

I’ll settle this the old fashioned, with poetry and bile A bitter boy in denial with an aftertaste he cannot shift YOU’RE A JOKE! YOU’RE A JOKE! They echo back; your last words to me The fact that nobody’s laughing now Is the saddest part of the irony All I want now is something to believe in You said it yourself We never had a clue Well I’m sorry we were young But I’m not sorry we had fun True believer this isn’t a game and though we’re older now I’d kill for one more night I’d kill for one more day with you around

about

The Snippets England, UK

The Snippets met whence sipping cocktails onboard the S.S. Nancy Dillalleeoh. Polite tippings of fine silk top hats soon turned into talk of mathematics and, naturally, music. The four there and then knew they were bonded for life. They called themselves The Snippets, and have since written and released the EP 'Abbreviations', which has been released to remarkable industry acclaim. ... more
