Eaten by NYC

Your rent's not going/ to charity
You're just an interruption/ to the real story
Scoff at the tourists/ but they'll outlast you
You'll never earn the right/ to be subsumed
No matter what you do/ the city's gonna eat you too
Entitlement and condescension / are bones that choke on the way down
Your blank canvas is a black hole/ that cannot wait to spit you out

You don't look like you're from around here
Have you signed up for the watch list?
Wave different flags when it suits us
But make no mistake...
We don't use those words around here
They do not mean what you think they mean
There's only one local color here
You can guess what it is...
We don't care how much the tide turns outside these lines...
We don't serve that kind around here
It is not like what you think it is
There's only one group that runs the show
You can guess what it is...
We see who enters, we see who leaves
Gatekeeper, the highest calling...
We'll deal with you if we must,
But it'd be easier if you weren't here at all

Who's gonna explain this to the boss? Fuck him, it's his own fault
for giving me the keys/ this place will be empty by dawn.
There's nothing in/ the fucking bag/ no one behind the curtain.
Are we supposed to pretend that we don't know?
I can't believe this is the finish line, second place is death/
third, even worse/but living death is prize for first.
You'd better let me hold onto that for you/some people can't handle power.
Let's form an orderly line/we're all equal, just some more than others..
Sick of the dance we have to do/just to keep this shitshow running.
Quitting's not giving up/ it's self preservation.
This stupid dance we have to do/ just to keep this shitshow running.
Self preservation/self preservation.

No chance of redemption/I never fell from any grace
Started at the bottom/past glories don't exist
I wish this island/would just sink already
Never enough, always too late/middle finger on the hand of fate
No goal but existence/not even survival
No such thing as resignation/when there was no hope to begin with
I don't fault my choices/I chose nothing

The Stupids Die

You poked the hive/ the bees are dumb
They think as one/concrete instinct
Gone far enough/comfort trumps progress
Ten generations no better than the last
Its awesome here/ in the sun
It's awesome here/being dumb
You motherfuckers don't know what you're missing
Only our fossils will tell the truth/now it's a race to get there first

Shame As It Ever Was

How many more years before the earth is flat again? How long will it be 'til history never happened?
You act like we already live on the island...like we've already gotta eat each other to survive.
Pull the ripcord at the first sign of trouble. Don't repair, just replace.
From punks you came/to jocks you shall return/ it is as it ever was/ it is as it ever was
New golden age/here comes the train/ don't you worry about who's underneath.
Don't need a ticket/just pledge allegiance/ to the convenience of believing a lie
Don't engage/just negate/ how are you supposed to live with contradiction?
Ideals are on display/instead of put to use/ when it comes time to live up to them

It's over when he says it's over
He says jump and I do
Doesn't matter what the cost is
He tells me what to do
he tells me what to do
Instincts irrelevant
You see one but there are two
Doesn't matter what the cost is
He tells me what to do

Shame Silo Connecticut
Shame Silo lives in mid-tempo, riff-heavy metal, with regular visits to slow dirge and blazing hardcore. The silo delivers screeching leads and powerful vocals, underpinned by complex timing, played super-tight and tuned down. Formed in 2016 by four blokes who live to play the tough stuff, the silo holds Mike (bass/vocals), Matt (lead), Kenny (rhythm) and Spike (drums). ... more
