Schadenfreude Junkie

I’m a schadenfreude junkie
It's all about me
I'm a schadenfreude junkie
It's all about what I want to see
The sweet taste of watching
Those crumbling walls
They're yours they're not mine
So I don't care at all
Well I know it's wrong
But it feels so right
In others struggles
To take such delight
Delicious downturns
A falling from grace
Delicious downturns
Just puts a smile back upon my face
I’m a schadenfreude junkie
Paying at the gate
Salivating for
The cruel twist of fate
Well I know it's wrong
But it feels so right
In others struggles
To take such delight
Stripped back, laid bare
The side we try to hide
The side we try to hide is always there
I'm a Schadenfreude junkie
Just like all the rest
The only difference is
I just confessed

I didn't believe before
But now it's fair to say I do
There's a place in my heart
A little part I put aside for you
You've given me so much more
Than you take and I am thanking you
There's a place in my heart
A special part I put aside for you
To come to realise
We're only ever really passing through
And while we're here we might
Just as well
Just as well
Enjoy the ride that much is true
Sweetest apple of my eye
Sweetest apple of my eye
Forget about settling scores
When no other made me think like you
There's a place in my heart
A little part I put aside for you
I'ts rare that I'm seen to show
How I feel, but when it comes to you
There's a place in my heart
I'm prepared to let it shine for you
To come to realise
We're only ever really passing through
And while we're here we might
Just as well
Just as well
Enjoy the ride that much is true
Sweetest apple of my eye
Sweetest apple of my eye
Sweetest apple of my eye
Sweetest apple of my eye

Always there for parties and stags
Glue that binds together
Been that way forever
Sordid yarns of sundry slags
Holding court for hours
Tales of superpowers
Tarred with the same brush
No one thinks that you're in a rush
But no one wants to be
The last one left in the pub
Down in one to all the applause
Revel in bravado
You're Gorka Pintado
So much time on your hands to kill
Idle thumbs in action
Devil's found some traction
Tarred with the same brush
No one thinks that you're in a rush
But no one wants to be
The last one left in the pub

Race To The Bottom

Understand what you see
Isn't quite what it's all cracked up to be
Underhand behind the scenes
We are fed what they want us to believe
Where are we going?
Where does it end?
Race to the bottom
That's where my friend
They'll scratch his he'll scratch theirs
In good time they'll have it all carved up in shares
It's a game that you can play
Entry's free except for those who cannot pay
Where are we going?
Where does it end?
Race to the bottom
That's where my friend
And I just can't abide
By all those lies
I hear and see
No I just can't abide
By all those lies
They're killing me
Gravy trains delivering pain
Stop to dump their load and soon set off again
All the sheep must be blind
Red top propaganda rules their hearts and minds
Where are we going?
Where does it end?
Race to the bottom
That's where my friend
And I just can't abide
By all those lies
I hear and see
No I just can't abide
By all those bloody lies
They're killing me

You're having a laugh and enjoying the craic
Throwaway lines never meant to offend
Living is easy when you got no ties now
Seems Peter Pan is alive and well
At heavy times you run a mile
You turn your back and you're gone again
Fairweather Friend
All I want to say is that
You burned your bridges
Fairweather Friend
All I want to say is that
You burned your bridges here
Always the one to play the part of the jester
Goofing around they're eating out of your hand
But everything changes when the chips are down now
You make your excuses and you're never around
At heavy times you run a mile
You turn your back and you're gone again
Fairweather Friend
All I want to say is that
You burned your bridges
Fairweather Friend
All I want to say is that
You burned your bridges here
Your bridges here
Your bridges here

I Think I Found It

I think I found it
That special place you keep inside
For all the love that you never show
And you never will
You tried to hide it
Buried deep within your heart
But I found a way
To get inside
And to make it mine
Don't be afraid now
I can ease your pain
Breathe me in now
I'll always be with you
To the end
I think I found it
That special place you keep inside
For all the ones you resent the most
Whose smiles are forced
You'll never tell them
Just how much they let you down
And the pain they caused
Because they only care
For the things they do
Don't be afraid now
I can ease your pain
Breathe me in now
I'll always be with you
To the end
I think I found it
That special place you keep inside
For your deepest fears
And all the pain that hurts the most
You'll never tell me
Just how hard it was to pretend
That you were strong
And to carry on as if nothing's wrong

It's a fucked up world we live in
To serve the one percent
Where all the odds are firmly in their favour
And if you want to put your head up
Above the parapet
You are going to have to sign a waiver
Everyone's too busy
To try and get there first
But no one seems to quite know where they're going
All our heads are down
Engrossed within a screen
No one's ever interested in talking
Turning in on ourselves
We're all turning in
In on ourselves
Keyboard warriors shouting
Shouting at a screen
And disappearing into an empty void
Everything is anger
Or everything is smiles
Middle ground dispensed with, where's the joy
Turning in on ourselves
We're all turning in
In on ourselves
The power and the glory
The Doc who sets the scene
Knowing they won't see the bigger picture
Everyone's a cog
Designed to turn the wheel
Of ignorance that feeds the ugly creature
Turning in on ourselves
We're all turning in
In on ourselves

You Know I'm Right

The world it owes you nothing
Why is that so hard to see?
Don't waste your time in wondering why
The truth will set you free
I don't care for your latest scheme
Save your breath why not just come clean?
Caught you with your pants down
You knew you were bang to rights
So I put you back in your box
And I shut the lid down tight
'Cos you know I'm right
Yeah you know I'm right
I don't know why you feel the need to justify to me
The reasons why you're not to blame
You're not convincing me
I don't care if you're on the sick
Save it pal it's just the same old shtick
Caught you with your pants down
You knew you were bang to rights
So I put you back in your box
And I shut the lid down tight
'Cos you know I'm right
Yeah you know I'm right
Yeah
So you tell me that the world
Has let you down again
Why not keep your mouth shut
And not treat me with disdain?
I don't care if you're on your knees
Back under your rock if you please
Caught you with your pants down
You knew you were bang to rights
So I put you back in your box
And I shut the lid down tight
'Cos you know I'm right
Yeah you know I'm right
Yeah

Let down by a system
Designed to help
Recidivist King
Exposing the flaws
A born underachiever
The Devil's own deceiver
A master of
The cloak and dagger
His true intentions
Remain unknown
A man of dubious identity
Destined to keep his liberty
Now time is running out
The noose has tightened
A knock on the door
Then confusion reigns
And you realise then
You've swallowed his lies
Once again he's pulled the wool
Over your eyes
