the ugly truth is that you keep fooling me even though it is very clear that you don’t want me to be near you the ugly truth is that i keep swallowing all your lies the ugly truth is that we never seem to succeed at a small task called communication the ugly truth is that i don’t want to see your lies keep feeding me your nightmare ‘cause i don’t want to wake up the ugly truth is that i keep my head in the clouds while you keep searching for somebody else the ugly truth it that you keep making empty promises keep feeding me your nightmare ‘cause i don’t want to wake up keep fooling me baby keep fooling me baby keep fooling me honey keep fooling me baby

the lonely vagabond leaves again with a new route at his hands just like a ghost he passed me by without a trace or memory to get by he walks off into the sun oh he keeps walking he keeps running from himself the lonely vagabond walks again leaving a chapter at its end no excuses no goodbyes without a trace or memory to get by he walks off into the sun oh he keeps walking he keeps running from himself i see the hills in his eyes

while you were stating the obvious i was busy making my way the truth was hidden inside me you had to throw it in my face hey hey where do you get off? hey hey throwing your words around! slowly but surely you drift into my background noise while i was stating the obvious you were busy getting around new beginnings before the end come on no need to pretend! hey hey where do you get off? hey hey throwing your words around slowly but surely you drift into my background noise

you feel like giving me your reasons telling me it’s been too many seasons well i guess you feel on top but I’m telling you enough is enough when we meet you want to say hello well i don’t want to know if life is good or bad don’t want to hear about your fucking band you had your chance girlfriend and it won’t come around again ‘cause your attitude is what sent me walking stop your talking! said stop your talking! hysteric with an empty head you’ll keep running until you’re dead like a hurricane in my head you’ll keep walking until you’re dead

i’m stuck in your ways and strong believes so what’s the problem man? you’ve got it your way got it your way got it your way you’re taking the government and you’re tearing it down your opinion is spreading around you’ve got it your way got it your way got it your way one plus one will never equal three in your equation there’s no room for me you say i got to make it on my own what if i don’t have the capacity? i’m stuck in your self-destructive ways so what’s the problem man? you’ve got it your way got it your way got it your way you’re putting our welfare on sale you’re waiting for the system to fail you’ve got it your way got it your way got it your way one plus one will never equal three in your equation there’s no room for me you say i got to make it on my own what if i don’t have the capacity?

we take the elevator to see the sparks she holds my hand and begs me not to leave her i’m sorry honey but there’s no other way to help there’s no other way to save you from yourself when she’s sound asleep far away from her pain they start to reload her batteries i’ll give you all i have i’ll be your savior and friend over and over over and over i’ll catch you when you fall

little miss lies empty tonight with nobody around there’s no one to fight “i’m seen therefore i am” a philosophy she’ll die by little miss lies sleepless tonight and she hurts herself when there’s no one in sight “i cut therefore i am” a philosophy she’ll die by miss emotional goes crazy again little miss is breaking again and she screams and shouts that she’s going insane “i feel therefore i am” a philosophy she’ll die by little miss lies sleepless tonight and she hurts herself when there’s no one in sight “i cut therefore i am” a philosophy she’ll die by

Anhedonia 02:07
she walks the streets at night with her head in the air don’t need no sleep no food the voice is always there she meets the devil at night she knows how to start a fight they keep telling her that none of it’s for real they keep telling her that “this is not how it’s supposed to be” paranoia is written all over her face she gently strokes her hair stares into thin air a room filled with ambivalence the smell of anxiety in the air anhedonia she is larger than life and they all know her name she knows they’re after her blood thank god the pope is her son she’s seen things no one else has done she knows who lives behind the sun they keep telling her that none of it’s for real they keep telling her that “this is not how it’s supposed to be” paranoia is written all over her face she gently strokes her hair stares into thin air a room filled with ambivalence the smell of anxiety in the air anhedonia

Sold Out! 04:34
years gone by and nothing’s the same long gone are those glory days all on top and nothing in the bottom empty promises there is a lot of “let’s start a bureaucracy” they said there goes democracy down the drain pointing their fingers and placing the blame same old story but nothing’s the same with an empty pocket the joke is on you! with an empty pocket the joke is on you! all on top and nothing in the bottom empty promises there is a lot of your welfare is on sale everybody wants a piece of the cake sold out! the government is for sale everybody wants a piece of the cake they say it’s all about you your choice and your freedom your welfare is on sale everybody wants a piece of the cake sold out! the government is for sale everybody wants a piece of the cake

about

Feathered Arms Malmö, Sweden

"That Swedes are not limited to dreamy pop and postrock, but also capable of some straight-ahead and dirty rock action is something we already learned from their colleagues ITATTWD. FEATHERED ARMS seem to be willing to push this approach even a little further."
