My name is Jonny Victim and you know that
I am savage.
And it’s my goal to die an artist’s death
do you love this?
I am a dirt poet, a scumbag y’know it.
“Yeah, listen up here girl. This world is ours to destroy.”
When you blow that smoke into my lungs
I can’t help but feel alive
And have on final drink for the dead.
Can you taste this?
“Come on girl… do you love the beasts that we’ve become.
The streets are drowned in sour wine –
we are rabid wolves in rapid fire -
with bursts of hell in our hearts”
Your civil hips are way too dangerous to caress
Yeah yeah yeah yeah!
This world is ours to destroy.
Savage is our narrative
Our story in flames.
You and I have become fiction --
and this is for the dead. dead. dead. dead
this if for the dead.
