Insects Destroy
Pulley Lyrics

I'm looking for a friend today
Pulley is searching for someone who understands his struggles

Another victim just like me
He looks for someone who has become a victim of society, just like him

A lunatic a loser a freak
He considers himself an outcast, a freak, just like he thinks society sees him

Another casualty from a fucked up society
He believes he is yet another victim of a dysfunctional society

I gave my all to the system
Pulley devoted his life to the system, whatever that may be

Half my life still in question
He remains unsure of whether it was worth it, given the toll it took on his life

All about the money and power
He suggests that the system focuses solely on material gain and power

All the greed they've devoured
He accuses the system of being consumed by greed

You never gave any credibility for a vision given to the enemy
The system never acknowledged or appreciated ideas from those deemed as enemies

And on the faces of humanity
Despite this, everyone is affected by the flaws within society

A stone's eye throw for a man
People can turn a blind eye to others' struggles or pain

On a pedestal
Those in power are placed on a pedestal, seemingly untouchable

You sold your soul to the man
He accuses someone of being willing to do anything for power, even forsaking their values

Another deal a deal gone bad
This person made another failed, misguided attempt at securing power

Another seed that never gets planted
They wasted their potential, unable to make a positive impact

Corporate insects destroy our planet
Pulley links corporate greed to the destruction of the environment

Never going to let another day die
He resolves to fight back against those in power every day

My friend you and I
He believes that finding like-minded people can make a difference

Feel the heat from the fire outside
They feel the heat of a rebellion against the system brewing outside

Burning hot still alive
Despite everything, they remain committed to fighting back

I keep it bottled inside me
Pulley keeps his emotions and frustrations inside

You keep it bottled inside you
Others also keep their struggles to themselves

See the sun drop colours of red
He observes how the world and environment around them is changing for the worse

Broken bones for a mouth well fed
The powerful may have everything materially, but they are still broken and unfulfilled inside

Bring back a real train of thought
He wants society to foster genuine conversations and transformative thinking

Another tool for the melting pot
He believes that new ideas and perspectives can create positive change
