Every Time I Die

Every Time I Die is a hardcore punk band from Buffalo, New York, formed in 1998. Their musical style is rooted in technical hardcore with strong southern metal and mathcore elements, and is also characterised by their cryptic, bitingly sarcastic lyrics. They have also garnered much critical and fan acclaim for their high energy, intense live shows. The band announced on July 14, 2008 that they had left Ferret Music and signed with Epitaph. Their sixth studio album, Ex Lives, was released March 6, 2012. more »

Turns out I never had a thought at all. 
I've been talking in my sleep, 
Reciting teleprompted anthems. 
A marionette strung tight to the executives upstairs. 

I almost had myself convinced that I meant everything I said. 
What a shame. 
Oh captain, my captain, 
You've been drinking. 

What happened? 
I've been slurring my cadences and blacking out when I stand. 
I know about your son, 
Who never did return from the war. 

But there was poison in that bottle, 
I tell you. 
I'm coming out with my hands in the air. 
And the voice that you're hearing, 

Isn't me. 
What you are hearing isn't mine. 
There's been some horrible mistake. 
I'm a proud god-fearing registered democrat. 

This is all some elaborate scheme and it will be cleared up 
When the governor beckons for me. 
He'll clear my name. 
It appears that the inmates have overrun the asylum. 

There's a madman at the wheel. 
We are not even remotely capable of keeping our heads about us. 
We've abandoned all semblance of presence. 
Dead bolted, buckled in. 

Keeping our word to the sinking ship. 
Let the rats orchestrate the new mutiny, 
I'll met you overboard.
