Turning Grey 02:38
I see the signs I don't recognize myself Spent my whole life wishing I was someone else Now it seems like life just might oblige Burning bridges faster than a politician Lone wolf on an esoteric mission My second term to be defined And that's life Say something! You don't wanna know Say something! You don't wanna know What's left to say when you're turning grey? Hey Hey Hey No time to plan tomorrow's parties Losing hair thinking about inequity God and the State to goddamn Eckhart Tolle Raise your flag Bury your head in the sand Give up on vain attempts to defend The rotting corpse of rock n roll And that's life Say something! You don't wanna know Say something! You don't wanna know What's left to say when you're turning grey? Hey Hey Hey Blank checks autographed by evil men Mundane security close at hand How long can you balance on the line? Occupy the holes punched inside of me Free to debase but not for free Mourn my death and please say I'm civilized Yeaaaa And that's life Say something! You don't wanna know Say something! You don't wanna know What's left to say when you're turning grey? Hey Hey Hey

Validation and sedation Name a more iconic combination Plug me in, turn me on, tell me how I’m supposed to feel Isolation, so subliminal To waste this meal on myself would be criminal Get me high, tell me lies while I’m spinning my wheels I don’t wanna be a commodity oh no I don’t wanna live in an LED glow I don’t wanna be a commodity oh no 
I don’t wanna be out of control Generation: Artificial
 Mediocrity placed on a pedestal A platform for each and every passing thought 
Information, such disparity 
Never seen the “truth” with so much clarity
 O intelligence, what hath thou wrought? I don’t wanna be a commodity oh no I don’t wanna live in an LED glow I don’t wanna be a commodity oh no 
I don’t wanna be out of control Pacifying with impunity
 Accumulating synthetic community Silicon Daddy’s got you by the throat Valuation, full-circle 
Split-second appeal, universal Did the math, trimmed the fat, now you’re a joke I don’t wanna be a commodity oh no I don’t wanna live in an LED glow I don’t wanna be a commodity oh no 
I don’t wanna be out of control

My biggest regret Missing the signals Hangover apathy Could fill swimming pools I'm told it's wrong to ponder what-ifs And try to remain strong It shoulda been me It shoulda been me Yea you can call me If you need to Heartache is easier When it's shared between two I'm not absolved for empty promises I simply can't recall It shoulda been me It shoulda been me True friends share in your misery And your pain They take it away But I failed miserably Now there's no second chances No "tomorrow is a brand-new day" Stargazing fuck ups With idle hands We never second guessed Breaking plans I never saw you on that day So on deaf ears now I will say It shoulda been me It shoulda been me It shoulda been me It shoulda been me

Bootlickers 03:38
Racists with brains in outer space Eager to please these tools of state Dopamine spikes with compliance Monopolizing all the violence There's no reward, there's only consequence It's harder to think than to condemn While you're safe, feeling blessed Just know they're coming for you next Fuck all you bootlickers Your brain is mush from a leather diet Fuck all you bootlickers There's no such thing as blue lives Fuck all you bootlickers Epstein's death wasn't a suicide Fuck all you bootlickers You're looking for somebody to hate While they're standing right in front of your face My oppressor and yours is shared Class traitor, fascist enabler No friend to humankind when you side with swine Fuck all you bootlickers Your brain is mush from a leather diet Fuck all you bootlickers There's no such thing as blue lives Fuck all you bootlickers Epstein's death wasn't a suicide Fuck all you bootlickers Fuck all you bootlickers Your brain is mush from a leather diet Fuck all you bootlickers There's no such thing as blue lives Fuck all you bootlickers Epstein's death wasn't a suicide Fuck all you bootlickers Yeaaaaa

Ran away because I needed air Now I'm choking on borrowed time Our bed was made of grenades, so you slept on the couch I've got the itch, but I can't leave the house I'm afraid that I may have lost my charm Now I'm wasting under a big sky I'll be gone before you could ever say goodbye Wasting under a big sky The ground is cold, soul is moldy, no surprise Oh yea Broken homes aren't conducive to recovery Here I rust Manic sobriety is my cross to bear Look in my eyes as you fill my ditch Grant your least favorite junkie his last wish Now I'm wasting under a big sky I'll be gone before you could ever say goodbye Wasting under a big sky The ground is cold, soul is moldy, no surprise Oh yea

about

Night of the Spiders Tempe, Arizona

Night of the Spiders are a group of 90s kids, who wished they grew up seeing bands in the late 70s, trying to make sense of life in the 2020s. Formed in Tempe, AZ during the Winter of 2022, NotS quickly put together a set made up of punk songs that are darkly comedic and politically charged, with a dash of bitter breakup anthems. ... more
