lyrics

tw: rape

he came from portland
no doubt his parents only one
his life a wild tale in the making, when he's breaking
he'll tell it to his grandsons
wide eyed inspired their granddad's the guy
grinning from the far right hand side
guess it wouldn't be right to tell them that in life
their granddad was a cunt

so at the bar we broke off
you, nick, my brother just the four of us
you told us of that euro trip
of the drugs and chicks
and all the blokey shit that you did
but then it got to the story
how on the tenth floor he
had asked you guys to wait for him
and when the moment was right
to flick on the light
to gather round and cheer for him
she was taken unaware
stripped completely bare
and his grip held so tight
maybe she tried to escape
but his circle of mates
was already crowded in so tight
and his grip held
friends yelled
eyes wide like animals
and do you ever wonder you fucking monster
where that poor girl is now

and so i sit here
and i hear your story
never piping up
not when you slap the table laughing
with your eyes all screwed up
not when you lost it over
how long he held on
not when you flicked the light on
not even
when she cried when she tried to hide
she was terrified so fucking terrified and

and the way that you laughed
when you said
how she couldn't get away
from this experience
she'll carry with her
til her dying days
you're such a motherfucker
to think
that what you did was okay
and if there were
any justice in the world
you'd be dead or in fucking jail
