lyrics

RED COLLAR

Ain’t no rungs to climb
Born into a hole beneath the golden streets
I never feel the cold nights
Ain’t no roots to freeze

And I saw you cry, only this one time
You were sound asleep, dead inside a lullaby
Now you forgot the pride your father never gave ya
Said you been down too low, I guess I can’t blame ya

You shook the hell out of me
Said you want more, no
Cause you know I never gave a fuck, no
How many vials ya…

Bleed for me, you tired little man
Ain’t no man in a black suit or a white coat gonna save ya
Praying for a gentle death, I guess I can’t blame ya

You shook the hell out of me
Said you want more, no
Cause you know I never gave a fuck, no
How many vials ya bleed

Hear the vermin gather round
Beggars feast, now choke it down
When I name that price to pay
All you traitors will betray

Red collar lies, they told me I was home

Do we live for the gods of the state?
Do we die for the gods of the state?
My friend, attend your wake

about

Brother Ox Shady Grove, Pennsylvania

Brother Ox was a band with an idea behind it. Labor, societal pressure, anguish of the common man: listen to the first album, you hear these themes. This was a good thing.

But it was also an excuse to hide.

Volume 2 is full of characters you know in your personal experience, and some you haven't met yet. It's the same for us. Is it rock or something worse? Are we traitors? To what cause? None.
