I was born to lose so hard it isn’t funny
I never had a friend because a friend is just an enemy waiting to happen
I don’t care anymore
I’ve been beaten down so many times
I’m getting comfy on the floor
I wipe the blood off and I take my meds
‘Cause without them I’d be curled up under my bed
One night, when the feeling’s right
I’m gonna climb it up and hang it out
I don’t want salvation
I just want to be alone
Nothing here is sacred
I don’t live here anymore
There’s nobody I hate in this world more than myself
But there are those who’ve been managing to come pretty goddamn close
So if you’re looking for somebody’s day to ruin, I’ve got nothing to lose and it’s a very good day to die
‘Cause I’m tired of trying and lying
And pretending that everything’s okay and I’m not gonna kill
It plays like a movie in my head
I see me take ‘em out
I don’t want salvation
I just want to be alone
Nothing here is sacred
I don’t live here anymore
I don’t want protection
I just want to speak some goddamn truth
And I don’t need you
I’m already in the noose
Hell before me and behind
Hell to hold me
Hell so kind
I don’t want salvation
I just want to be alone
Nothing here is sacred
I don’t live here anymore
I don’t want protection
I just want to speak some goddamn truth
And I don’t need you
I’m already in the noose
This is ATD firing on all cylinders creatively. Hardcore, punk jumping shredders, anthemic, gang chant-y street punk--this album is all muscle. 'A Total Disappointment' is what a 20 minute powder keg sounds like. thewreckedneck
This is one of the best albums to come out last year. Rarely does a modern day hardcore band write something this catchy and solid all the way through. 10/10 robolitious
On their debut record, the London hardcore upstarts cross-up mosh-ready fare with melancholic ambient passages, weeping guitars, and virtuosic vocal harmonies, but its romantic veneer is much more complicated than it seems. Bandcamp Album of the Day Jan 30, 2019
