About
Raw anarcho-punk assault driven by heavily distorted guitars and relentless fast drums under shouted vocals that decry state oppression. Lo-fi DIY production delivers punchy unpolished energy with raw distortion prioritizing lyrical defiance and urgent rebellion.
Lyrics
The walls are closing tighter every nightShadows with badges steal the lightWe feel the weight before we even speak
They mark our steps with silent chainsPaper orders feeding on our painFists of law crush every spark we raiseWe hide our fire in the smoke and haze
Break the hold they tighten round our throatsTear the orders written on our bonesNo more kneeling to their iron thronesWe rise together when the system falls
They watch through lenses cold and blindTurn our words to weapons in their mindsEvery voice they silence feeds the rageWe carry scars from every broken age
Break the hold they tighten round our throatsTear the orders written on our bonesNo more kneeling to their iron thronesWe rise together when the system falls
I feel the pressure cracking in my chestOne last breath before we face the testThey can lock the doors but not the willWe burn the pages that they try to fill
We rise together when the system fallsWe rise together when the system falls
When the System Falls
Broken Ages
