lyrics

This whole world is…
Haunted by the ghosts of you and me, faded and ethereal becoming clearer.
Absence made our hearts grow colder,
perception with the precision of self-loathing, you’d be beautiful if you weren’t so beautiful.

From tears to glory then straight back to fucking tears, paint your pretty face,
with that same old shade of dick suck red.
Sell me your fake cure! A new me, a new you, the same old infection.

You burnt me, you burnt me. I burnt you, I burnt you.
You burnt me, you burnt me. I burnt you, I burnt all our bridges down!
I am my father’s son, you’re not your brother’s keeper,
I am my father’s son, you’re not your brother’s keeper,
I am my father’s son, you’re not your brother’s keeper,
I am my father’s son, you’re not your brother’s keeper!

A little death for the living dead, to give myself to you would kill me!
So paint your pretty face by numbers, that same old shade of dick suck red.
So predictable, you sell me your fake cure!
A new me, a new you, a new diagnosis of the same old infection!

This whole world is...

Haunted, by the ghosts of you and me, distinct and solid,
I can see us now in my mind so clearly!
Ethanol dolls in monochrome.
Assume the position, so we can continue to fuck ourselves properly.
A farewell to armistice, we've embraced a world of attrition.
I've spent my time grieving for a life that wasn't even worth living.
In a house of cards, this prison of my own creation,
I waste my time asking why, we all live in trenches.

You burnt me, I burnt bridges,
You burnt me, I burnt bridges,
You burnt me, I burnt bridges,
You burnt me, I burnt all our bridges down!

about

Jonestown Brighton, UK

We are Jonestown, an exercise in stupidity and the acquisition of dreams sold to us by engaging ourselves in too much TV at an early age. Convinced that we're talented or special, when the painful truth is, we are not special. In the realisation that we are not special we came to find we were angry. Just like us our music is not special but we can assure you it's angry and honest ... more
