Fish - Assassing lyrics

rate me

I am the assassinwith tongue forged from eloquence

I am the assassinproviding your nemesis

On the sacrificial altar to successmy friend

Unleash a stranger from a kissmy friend

No incantations of remorsemy friend

Unsheath the blade within the voice

My friendmy friendmy friendmy friend

I am the assassin

Who decorates the scarf with the fugi knot

Who camouflaged emotion in the thousand-yard stare

Who gouged the notches in the family tree

Who hypnotized the guilt in career rhythm trance

Assassinassassinassassinassassin

(assassinmy friend.)

Listen as the syllables of slaughter cut with calm precision

Patterned frosty phrases rape your ears and sew the ice incision

Adjectives of annihilation bury the point beyond redemption

Venomous verbs of ruthless candor plagiarize assassins' fervour

Apocalyptic alphabet casting spellthe creed of tempered diction

My friendyour friendthe assassin

A friend in need is a friend that bleeds

Let bitter silence infect the wound

I am the assassin(your friend)

Assassin

You were a sentimental mercenary in a free-fire zone

Parading a hollywood conscience

You were a fashionable objector with a uniform fetish

Pavlovian slaver at the cash-till ring of success

A non-com observerI assassinthe collector... defector

So you resigned yourself to failuremy friend

And I emerged the chilling strangermy friend

To eradicate the problemmy friend

Unsheath the blade within the voice

Within the voicewithin the voice

Within the voice

And what do you call assassins who accuse assassinsanyway

My friend?
