lyrics

Fratricide

Well I don’t have to talk to you anymore
Well your friends don’t know it but they tell me what you thought
Tell about a man by the people around him
Same conversation with all that surround him,
It’s gonna trickle on down.

It’s goes with the job your friends are your mouthpiece
Never been the same since we lived in the south east
You got your code of spittin words of hate
All you lack the guts to say it to my face
But I hear it anyway

Peace of mind is not my pride, Fratricide is blind
A peace of mind, not my pride, Fratricide is blind
Friends like these, friends say I’m easy baby
Smile with a knife come on stick it inside now
Fratricide is blind

Your pride is stretched, your strength is a lie
You know the runt of the litter won’t be the first to die
Stuck in a whirl, ended up me with the sense
It doesn’t turn to hate baby, just indifference
Just indifference

Peace of mind is not my pride, Fratricide is blind
A peace of mind is not my pride, Fratricide is blind
Friends like these, friends said I’m easy baby
Fratricide is blind
Smile with a knife come on stick it inside now
Fratricide is blind

S/T
by chimers

supported by 4 fans who also own “Fratricide”

Chimers takes no prisoners with their relentless angular riffage and stomping-in-the-chest drum beats. To think this came from just 2 people blows the mind. It's not all full-on aural assault either. Knocks back a gear on a couple of tracks to really show the different shades of their songwriting and musicianship. Best long distance driving album by far. Shaun Butcher

Just love this song, just the way Mick sings this song in his high pitched voice and how he pronunciates each word adds to the effect of this song, along with that driving beat, its just the Best! Actually there isn't a bad track on this album, love it all! Lee
