Description
Starting with “The Playwright”, Everthorn plunges right into their raw sound with thrashing guitars and synchronized beats that do not let off until the end. Lyrically, the song’s protagonist warns that the playwright has no right to write his life for him, and that God will carry the protagonist through anything.
Lyrics
You seem to have me down A failure for hire I won’t go without a fight Go without a sound My mistakes are like the plague An unending pain I shoot first, then I aim I shoot first, then I aim Shackles to the bars, bars to the chair You really seem to write my life And I won’t go down without a fight My God will make it fair Pardon me sir I have one last thing to say Before you leave I won’t fail My mistakes are like the plague But forgiveness is my cure
