LYRICS
Blow it up
Hail to the king of vanity
Praise to the lord of hostility
Hallejulah! Bless the bottom line
New day, same con
Works every time
Take it all ’til there’s nothing left
Never believed a word that you said
Destroyer you are become
death
Sell out, cash in, but you’ll always be
Bankrupt
I’m waiting for an answer
Life is a disaster we’re going through
Time keeps on moving backwards
The world is a cancer coming for you
Hail to the king
Well, who’s the fucking king?
I won’t be bowing
to power I’ll never kiss the ring
Fake fortunes on the backs of the unfortunate
Stock options only offset the loneliness
Money talks but time’s going deaf
Can’t buy back the life that you spent
Destroyer you are become death
Sell out, cash in, but
you’ll always be
Bankrupt
Everybody’s got a knife to their neck
If they’re coming for them, they’re gonna come for you next
Nobody’s life is worth as much as the check
They’re gonna sign it in blood with the tip of the bayonet
The deck is stacked
The game is rigged
The only rope they give
Chokes us when they pull the strings

Silverstein is on top of their promotion and content in such a youthful, modern way. While their peers and even _younger_ bands feel like dinosaurs, Silverstein’s fan engagement is so current and fresh.

[@violaschweizer5775]

Yeees, great promotion. They do such a good job. Insane. 💥

[@imnotreal010]

Exactly. They’re still relevant and good because they’re going with the flow and what’s going on now. It’s so good to see.

[@quietri0t]

They don't feel like these old guys who simply can't see that their days are over. Silverstein still deliver great shows and write wonderful songs without hunting the latest trends. It's nearly 20 years now since I listened to their songs for the first time.

[@danclark7780]

I agree, I know I said I'm not a huge fan of this song in particular, but Silverstein is still my favorite band and the way they evolve is killer. The way the market themselves is killer. Their performances, killer. Band deserves the notoriety that they get, hands down

Yup thats how its done. You evolve your sound. If you want to experiment, release small demo eps or such and read the feedback. Depending on the feedback, incorporate some of that experimental sound into the established or aka Evolving.

Shanes screams are so damn good, the energy this band brings is amazing

[@LevePalestinaKrossaSionismen]

Been a fan since 2005! This song, and their more recent music, are more reminiscent of their old music! I saw them perform live in Madrid in 2013. They are all so incredibly talented, kind, humble, and down to earth dudes!!

@@dantem5228 Yeah! but I think no band should ever get rid of his roots even when experimenting to include elements from other genres, that's why I really call to stay true to who a band really is, and sadly its something that many bands don't give an F and go mainstream.
