Motorcycle Emptiness Lyrics

"Motorcycle Emptiness"

Culture sucks down words
Itemise loathing and feed yourself smiles
Organise your safe tribal war
Hurt maim kill and enslave the ghetto

Each day living out a lie
Life sold cheaply forever, ever, ever

Under neon loneliness...

    Stop fucking about , taking the piss , forcing guilt and depression on our lovely nation , we are a humble nation now just be fair and let us live and breathe. That shouldnt cost us a penny but you rip the heart out of each and everyone of us you bastard MP's. Thats my interpretation.....

    The only time you’re truly alive is alone, riding through the night lights on your heart bonded motorcycle, this you are at one with. You find time slows down as the speed increases. You see your own self as if outside your body in the hollowness of this illusion of conformity within this so called world of civilisations. It asks you to push your motorcycle harder and harder testing the bounds of what is safe. Riding on the very edge of the waves. Until either you die, or frighten yourself so much you shock yourself out of this malaise and back into living another minute, another hour, another day, another week, another month. Just one more year and then your be happy, another year then your be happy, although you know you’re never stop moving (Gerry Rafferty) until you meet yourself alone once again, on that darkened sodium neon lit road.
