Refused - Old Friends / New War Lyrics
I clutch the worn out year of my birth
Herded with the herd
I whisper through anemic lips: I was born
And the centuries surround me with fire
To clean this feed
Commit to memory failures past and our petty needs
Suppress the crime of time and the names that map our identity
'Cause when the fighting stops our damned souls will rot
We'll never be set free
I'm all out of appeals now
I'm just going to scream now
Old friends / new war
Old friends / new war
Not dumb enough to close my eyes
Old friends / new war
Still dancing to defective rhymes
Old friends / new war
The silence of the herd, apologetic words, is all I ever find
And there's no other choice but to create some noise and sharpen up my mind
'Cause when the cages shrink I'll be the weakest link on every fucking chain
Can never pacify this constant war inside, all the hate and pain
I'm all out of appeals now
I'm just going to scream now
Old friends / new war
Stuck in an uneven fight
Old friends / new war
Not dumb enough to close my eyes
Old friends / new war
Still plotting 'til the end of night
Old friends / new war

GREAT BEND.I WAS ON THE CONCERT LJUBLJANA 1998
Saw them a year ago. They killed it!
Why the hell would they just kill something?
viej@s amig@s/nueva guerra
This is such a good fucking song.
fucking jam
yoooooooo
Dope ass!
sounds like hard-core Ween at the begining.
Reminiscent of "Makin' Love In The Gravy" and "Boing"
i also thought at WEEN by listening this song the first time. especially the beginnin
"Frè, no frè, toglila. Basta. Ha cagato il cazzo. Con tutto il rispetto."
Love this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Favorite song off the new album.
i wish he didnt sound like dave grolh on this new stuff, he had an epic scream, i guess he lost it
Anyone have the lyrics? My googling abilities have proven unsuccessful so far.

I clutch the worn out year of my birth
Herded with the herd
I whisper through anemic lips: I was born
And the centuries surround me with fire
Aortas fill with blood to cleanse my head
To cleanse this feed
Commit to memory failures past and our petty needs
Suppress the crime of time and the names that map our
identity
'Cause when the fighting stops our damned souls will rot
We'll never be set free
I'm all out of appeals now
I'm just going to scream now
Old friends / new war
Stuck in an uneven fight
Old friends / new war
Not dumb enough to close my eyes
Old friends / new war
Still dancing to defective rhymes

And there's no other choice but to create some noise and

@Justin Gramley perfect, thanks a bunch.
@Justin Gramley The opening stanza is a quote from a poem by Russian poet Osip Mandelshtam. Penguin translated it as:
Aortas fill with blood.
A murmur resounds through the ranks:
– I was born in ’94,
I was born in ’92...
And, clutching the worn-out year of my birth,
Herded wholesale with the herd,
I whisper through anaemic lips:
I was born in the night of January the second and third
In the unreliable year
Of eighteen-ninety something or other,
And the centuries surround me with fire.
Dat oddly similar song title...
@Problem? Parkway Drive it is, friend
Thought I got click-baited when I first heard the intro. Turned out to be an awesome song! Very different for Refused.
First song I've heard on the new album that I actually semi-kinda liked.
U R 2 EDGY 4 ME
+Green Mann look man...it's fucking Refused. They put out arguably one of the best records of their genre. I love them. But this just doesn't live up to the dream.
I hear you, I guess I just curbed my expectations well enough to be pretty happy with it.
The song title is oddly similar to PWD's "Old Ghost/ New Regrets".
@danieldeckermusic i was just gonna write that
@danieldeckermusic battery
@Mto sct Drums*
@danieldeckermusic I thought the same..
@danieldeckermusic Well, they did the same with "Refused Are Fucking Dead" and "The Shape of Punk To Come". I guess they just like to borrow song and album titles.
this is such a dope album
tst.jpeg gots like that socal gangster rap vibe almost lol
Sofa King great
Awesome!
