SACRIFICE (LP, 2019)
SIDE A:

ENEMIES & ALLIES

a war amongst our friends
is a pointless battle while our whole world is on fire

who's your enemy, who's your ally?
know your enemy, know your ally

a discussion is not the end, diversity must be allowed
to exist in a world of compassion and love

blacken the ones on your side
what bothers you really, while slaying your friends?


PHARMADEATH

cure to secure every aspect of wealth
corporate profit controls human health

cure, kill, conquer

your victims will be left alive
your victims must be kept alive

have faith in your right to expand and exploit
the sick will always depend on you


NO MASTERS 

you fear being scared, weak and lonely
everyone that's not like you
remind you of your weaknesses
you throw up your disdain
over everyone else

exclude, ignore -you, trying to master me
silence, extort -you can never master me
undermine, objectify -you, trying to master me
ridicule, make invisible -you will never master me

try to hide behind your own derision 
we'll wind you up without double binding
your manipulation, objectification,
threats and violence
shame on you, nothing forgotten

the only master of me is me


48 HOURS

you flee from your home
all you've ever known
you flee from death threat
you got no choice
you run through lands you've never known
you just want to live

48 hours of fear
48 hours

you get to Sweden, housed with hundreds
all boxed up, nowhere to go
in 48 hours you're evicted
two days notice and nothing more

48 hours 
two days notice


1 % 

one percent
making a profit
retaining power
exploiting and taking away

one percent with no restrain
capitalists making a profit
tyrants build worlds of misery
for everyone but themselves
how can this not be a crime

gaining abundance
from interest rate
add on debts
pushing us over the edge

eat the rich


SIDE B:

WASTE
 
a new day, a new piece of junk 
to buy, to throw away 
new inventions, same intentions 
selling a world of perfection and needs 

fuck this way of life 
waste producing, junk abusing 
this is genocide 

promoting a lifestyle of excess 
keep us blind and tranquilized 
producing ideals of western standards 
no tomorrow for a dying planet 

fuck our way of life 
waste producing, junk abusing 
this is suicide


THIS CURSED WOMB 

pain from thousands of needles inside 
the patriarchy's got its knives in my back, cutting me up 

clammy fainting spells 
blood, vomit pains 
pain from hell 
pain from oppression 

born with a uterus, expect hell 
always lower priority  
through healthcare, work, society 

they say -they say 
learn to endure pain 

men have used biology 
to exclude us from society 
this cursed womb 
master of enduring


SILENCE KILLS 

all lining up at emergency 
doors sent home with emptiness 
several drugs to numb us 
increasing anxiety when there's no help to get 

numbing people isn't a cure 
pain amplifies - getting no help, no nothing 
screaming out - echo in a lonely bed 
all alone - being left out in a dead end 
blaming ourselves - for mental poor mental health 

society is abandoning us, making us lonely 
not being seen, giving us doubt 
loosing strength to sustain 

denying how people feel 
only causes a stigma

WORK

this isn't real -not my life
this isn't me -dead inside
in line, aligned -enslaved
intended to have no intensions

all of my life
work 'til I die
rotting away
trying to fight this boredom of mine
I wanna break free

no strength -left to fight
not meant to think -just thought to obey
to stand work -play the game
to stand yourself -fight 

you're just a pawn on the chessboard of capitalism

work to produce to consume to obey to survive work to produce
work to consume work to survive work then die 

doing what i'm told
but i can't tell you
what i'm doing
they might own my time
but they won't have my mind


DECEPTION

thousands of people get evacuated
each year from cities in Europe
deprived from their homes and few belongings
back to zero once again

never safe, never welcomed
Europe is not for everyone

people rather work than being poor
people rather study than being excluded
people rather stay than getting evicted

we thought we were paying for integration
but millions are thrown out on evictions
no money for the people it was meant for
instead we are paying for more segregation

EU steels money for segregation
money that was meant for integration

Europe creates their own problem
by maintaining the structures they claim to reject
EU wants some to stay poor
to point out don't become ”one of them”


IT'S OUR SOCIETY 

the power is constructed 
something to take, to recreate, use and share
what to loose? 

this is our society, take what's ours 
the many of us have the power 
riots in our hands, courage to risk it all for changes 
unite for the fight 

if you have power to choose 
then you have power to act 
thinking someone else will do it 
someone else is you 

rage the tyrants -arise!

 

VICIOUS IRENE // VEHEMENCE (SPLIT-LP, 2016, LYRICS FROM OUR SIDE)

SCUM

what's the big deal about cutting up men 
when you're so fuckin fond of women oppression
100's and 100's of years does it really hurt 
if we hate you back?

scum - overthrow the government
scum - eliminate the money system
scum - castrate the rapers
scum - if this is how you run things
we'd rather be running free

patriarchal elite culture hates women
what you whining for
when you murder women for your pleasure
your ideas of good art is based on hatred
we will smash it, create our own

men creating history, white men of power
trying to teach us what is right or wrong
we will destroy all rules you have created
we will smash your world

scum - overthrow the government
scum - eliminate the money system
scum - castrate the rapers
scum - if this is how you run things
we'd rather be running free


RUN

a manifestation of power
the lowest kind, a cowardly act
no excuses for what you do
get away, while you can

run for your life
run fast, you better run for your life
do you think you can hide?

the hunt has begun

with hatred like a burning flame
we're catching in, moving closer
no fuckin way, we never give up
we are running with scissors

run for your life
run fast, you better run for your life
do you think you can hide?

hunt you down
cut you up
an army of sisters will get you
we'll never give up

run for your life
the hunt has begun
run fast, you better run for your life
run for your poor fuckin life


GAME OF PATRIARCHY

football, soccer, nationalistic holiness
man made men
we should salute you and your honor?

did you forget?
no borders, no nations
no dudeness macho bullshit
it's just a game of patriarchy

how come football, soccer and trafficking,
sex work go hand in hand
how did our boys get to abuse our girls 
on count on manly needs and money

did you forget?
no borders, no nations
no dudeness macho bullshit
it's just a game of patriarchy


WAR FOR SALE

Sweden exports war
we sell weapon, we sell war
see first
committing crimes to human rights
kill first

abuse of power
we make profit out of war
neutral is a lie
blood money on our hands
rich mans cash buy poor mans death

what we need weapons for
we sell weapons, we sell war
just to exploit the poor
with glossy ads, a stupid slogan
if you can't buy it
we're not neutral, we are making war
you bomb it

abuse of power
we make profit out of war
neutral is a lie
blood money on our hands
white mans cash buy black mans death

we sell weapon, we sell war
sweden exports death
committing crimes to human rights
leader of arm sales
see first, kill first
we sell to anyone who want to buy 
our war crimes covered up with lies
buy it, bomb it
war for sale
 


CONFLICTS & STRUGGLES

conflicts and struggles
fear hurts cuts between
shame blames no one who gains

so much shame tear us apart - fight your enemy inside
build up walls of detestation - fight your enemy inside
it's better to try than do nothing - fight your enemy inside
to make a stand is to live

conflicts and struggles
guilt traps us in a hollow shell
making and leaving us lonely as hell

so much shame tear us apart - fight your enemy inside
build up walls of detestation - fight your enemy inside
it's better to try than do nothing - fight your enemy inside
to make a stand is to live

conflicts and struggles
to live is to fight, struggle for our lives
fight for solidarity and equal rights

 

DISTORTED STATE OF MIND (LP // CD, 2012)

DESOLATION

You, listen to me speak
listen to me scream
hear what you have done
to fuck our thing to ruins

No understanding no
no compassion left
only selfishness
no self-perception
now I'm giving up
although I'm crushed by grief

Desolation
Can't stand your feeling of anguish
Can't stand my feeling of despair
Desolation

If I choose to run
if I choose to hide
pretend that you are dead
you're not existing don't you judge me no
it's all because of you

HUMAN OBJECTS STUPID SUBJECTS

Miss Feel Good, Miss Feel Well
have you heard this story, tell
Miss Feel Cool, Miss Feel Nice
don’t know what you mean with compromise

I’m so strong
I’m the super-mind
I’m so proud
I’m absolutely undeclined

Miss Feel Cool, Miss Feel Nice
happy wrapped, no surprise
Miss Feel Good, Miss Feel Well
everyone will burn in hell

I’m the new newest best ever everything
and I like me a lot more then everyone
of every kind that is kind for no reason
why your care? keep that in your mind
I don’t mind you at all, you make me feel fine

 

DISTORTED HEART

This crazy world creating robohumanoids
broken pieces of fed-up people
healing from a distorted inside

In these eyes you will see distortion
from the hands you will feel the distortion
running wild, this distorted state of mind
it’s all I ever know

Distort my heart
Distort my brain
Distort me again

Together we stand in the hands of distortion
uniting in our love for distortion
to d-beat we dance ’til the morning comes
my distorted sisters and I

 

CONSTRUCTION OF LIES

I’m on the line here
you can’t define me
I’m on the line here
I don’t wanna be defined

Who I fuck is none of your business
no need for definitions
girl/boy is all a lie
it’s just to fit in your shrinked vision

My identity form what I am
my experience, culture, colour, class
my identity not your definition
we form alliances through struggles and resistance
alliances to fuck your definitions
break, recreate, complicate your mission
your fabrication of what I can be

 

INDIVIDUALS

My battle within
is that constructed like all these things
I don’t wanna identify with
how canI live and love without this

Norms – suffocate me
Ideals – made to break me
Rules – constrain me
Break through – set yrself free

Layers and layers of games and construction
what is real beneath it all
wanna see us as free and get rid of this black cage
fuck societys rules of ownership
you can’t own what is free

My ghosts inside
convince me lies
far from a logic mind

How can I get through
all I’ve been taught
all I’ve learned
without this pain
without this fear
all this confusion

 

NICE TO MEAT YOU

Blood splattered walls, the murder continues
shut out the world, the killing goes on
what do you know about their suffering
do you know what is going on

Inside -these walls
Behind -closed doors
Inside -what you don’t know won’t hurt you

It’s pure fucking murder, you’re taking their lives
like organized crime supported by the state
you don’t give a shit what you’re eating
you feed from their pain

Inside -these walls
Behind -closed doors
Inside -what you don’t know won’t hurt you
Inside -real pain
Behind -closed minds
Inside -it’s fuckin murder inside

What’s truth, you refuse to listen
what’s truth, you don’t even care
so convenient not knowing the ways of production
you feed from their pain

Inside -can’t wash their blood of your hands

 

TERRITORIAL SHITTING

Horseradish, coffee and niccostash
I’m loading up for another toiletcrash
seitan, tofu and lotsa snacks
giving us the shitattacks

It’s a big D, it’s a big A
it’s a big D, it’s a big A
do you hear what I say
Vicious Irene territorial shitting

On the road with Vicious Catz
we are bombing toilets in squatted flats
son of a gun it’s all for fun
you know we’re all just foxes on the run

Cut the crap
Get ready for our shitattack
Stop the car we got to go
por favor, where’s the fucking loo
shooting sharp we’ll aim at you
even cowgirls gotta poo

It’s a big D, it’s a big A
it’s a big D, it’s a big A
we will poo all over you
Vicious Irene territorial shitting

 

WE DON’T FIT IN

You are fucking extreme aren’t you
you don’t ever go with the flow
you are too much for everyone
you are gonna end up alone

We don’t fit in
we don’t fit in
we don’t fit in
don’t wanna fit in
we don’t fit in
won’t learn how to fit in
we don’t fit in

Preoccupied with what people might think of you
always so worried of what they might say
stop wasting your time with others opinions
it drains all the energy you need to be yourself
We don’t fit in fuck you all

 

SKITSTAD

This big city is so so small
sucked down in big black holes
it becomes what we make of it
I’m blind thinking of you

Take me out of here
I want to get away
won’t you take me out of here
to remind me why I choose to live here

Same bars, same people, same old talk
or am I just getting older
I set my frames, my patterns, my trails
all this reminds me of you

Where’s the spark where’s the thrill
what am I making of this
I need a plan I need escape
to know what I’m doing here

Take me out of here
I want to get away
please take me out of here
I need to get away
help me out here
I wanna get outta here
won’t you help me out of here
to remind me why I choose to live here

 

TRASH YOUR FUTURE (EP 2009) 

A CONSTANT FIGHT

fellas – I need you to sort yourself out
fellas – organize your mates in our fight
fellas – I need you to react instead of me
fellas – and kick your friends out if necessary
fellas – I need your responsibility
fellas – don’t let the burden fall on me

act as if you care

fellas – this boys club era must end
fellas – is his shit worth to defend
fellas – don’t you stand silent by his side
fellas – or this macho bullshit won’t subside
fellas – shape up, look at yourself

fellas – stop blaming someone else
fellas – shape up, look at yourself
stop – blaming something else

it’s a constant fight for us

act as if you care
we are in this together

 

SCARS

trash your future like your past
hard to find the reason to fight
can’t see clear with eyes of sorrow
can’t think in this chaotic state of mind

nothing looks pretty not on the inside
just empty and filled up with shit
I’m tired of living in this distress
this restlessness drags me away from this world

my, your scars

scar your body like your mind
driving yourself to selfdestruction
you better get on with the race
restrain yourself with a smile on your face

retire into your shell
you might as well
lock out the world
and let no one inside

my, your scars

those scars inside of you won’t fade
bleeding scars on the inside won’t go away
the shell grows thicker as time goes by
at least you know your scars will stay safe inside

 

HOT AS HELL

oh you’re beautiful when you come crashing in through the door
oh you’re beautiful, more beauty than I’ve ever seen before
come over – I wanna feel you
come over – I know you want to

oh I want you close, come hang out a while with me
oh I want you close, come get a bit closer to me

your touch – over me
your kiss – is driving me
your touch – moving me
your kisses making me
your touch
your kiss – driving me
your touch – taking me higher
your kiss – wanting me, wanting you
your touch – makes me shiver
your kiss

you smell so good, you feel so fine
I wanna be with you all the time
oh you’re so smart and cool
your presence makes life better baby
when you’re sad i feel down
when you smile it makes me warm inside

your touch – I wanna take you home
your kiss – love you all night long
your touch – I wanna take you home
your kiss – ‘cos you’re Hot As Hell

 

EARTHLINGS

there’s no escaping from global warming
can’t buy yourself out so hear the warning
drowned by the rain burn to death by the sun
it’s getting to late now
what have we done?

we’re cutting our lifeline with a happy smiling face
an extended suicide of the human race

suffocated by greed our earth draws its last breath
she brought us our life, now we’re causing her death

nothing can grow here, nothing can live
we took all our planet’s got, no more to give
living on credits, now nothing is left
we’re all abusers, eternal our debt

we’re cutting…

failing ourselves and our own origin
bringing everything with us
in the downfall of our culture

 

HYSTERIA

what’s on sale? – the mind, the earth
what’s on sale? – your life, your soul
what’s on sale? – it’s all for sale

zombies through the mall
can’t buy yourself free
gotta have it all
so you buy their lie
you zombies wanna buy yourself your freedom
but you buy into their lie
it’s hysteria

spend your life in a shopping mall
you can never be happy
there’ll always be more
scared to face that your life is a bore
there can always be more
look sharp so other people listen
get the gimmick to join the discussion
house decorations to invite people home
never good enough the way you are or if you’re on your own

zombies through the mall
gotta have it all
can’t buy yourself free
so you buy their lie
you zombies wanna buy yourself your freedom
but you buy and you buy their massive lie
it’s consumania hysteria
