Night and Day Lyrics


VERSE 1

Where do I begin with you?

You think you defecate diamonds

You act like your every errant synapse

Is a brick of solid gold

I know everybody thinks it

No one’s brave enough to say it:

Fit them all into your mold

Criticism makes you livid

Fiend for suffering, so hit it

Voluntarily your tragedy unfolds

And now you tell your odyssey

Denying all the oddities

The most pathetic story to ever be told

Rehearsing all your charms

To enchant a clueless rabble

Your dictatorship is held

With pernicious psychobabble

Make them do your bidding

They’re your slavish herd of cattle

A desperate masquerade

Resuscitates a brain so addled

You’ll never win the war

When you cannot win a battle

Hubris, pride, perturbation

You’re irrevocably rattled

The furthest thing from perfect

Reconcile with yourself

Fake and petty and delusional

Dear God, get some help!

PRE-CHORUS 1

Lies, illusions, your tricks of the trade

Constant placation surely cures all the pain

Sloth, contusions, your soul is betrayed

Take your dose of affirmations

Like a line of bad cocaine

CHORUS

Night and day

Absolutely is your mind

When the messenger sings, it truly stings

So take that as a sign

Kneel and pray

To the god that you designed

A hypocrite worth less than shit

Just gild all the hurt inside

VERSE 2

Front row center at the freak show

Cheering and smiling, squirming in your seats

Dignified, glowing mess of self-loathing

Clueless and afraid, but somehow all-knowing

Nervous unsureness, beg for reassurance

Incorrigible weakling feigning your endurance

Can’t look away, can’t go on if we choose

Not to swallow the pretense that everything is fine

Wardrobe to ward off

Warmongering decline

Put lipstick on a pig,

But it’s still a fucking swine

Disaster everlasting

As the fading stars align

Curled naked in a ball

Cause your best days are behind

You talk a big game,

But you ramble so ridiculous

A sycophantic rat

Bred from birth to be duplicitous

Acidic cynicism,

Degradation sounds so serious

To hell with your contrivances

Your loyalty was meaningless!

PRE-CHORUS 2

Project, deflect, when the shit hits the fan

How could a god have a single limitation?

You wreck, neglect, conform to your clan

The wind beneath your wings

Arouses strangulation, bitch

BRIDGE

You will never be perfect

Night and day

You will never be perfect (gang)

Uselessly pray

You will never be perfect

Have it your way

You will never be perfect (gang)

Hell to pay

Solo (Nakos)

CHORUS

Night and day

Absolutely is your mind

When the messenger sings, it truly stings

So take that as a sign

Kneel and pray

To the god that you designed

A hypocrite worth less than shit

Just gild all the hurt inside

OUTRO

You will never be perfect

Night and day

You will never be perfect (gang)

Uselessly pray

You will never be perfect

Have it your way

You will never be perfect (gang)

Hell to pay
