about

"'Catharsis' is inspired by a time when we felt surrounded by people with massive privilege who felt they had the right to speak on behalf of the working class, pretending to be something they're not. It's us expressing our distain, we're sick of bottling it up! The lyrics are cathartic, hence the title!" - Michele McDonnell (CYW Lyricist) June 2021.

lyrics

Catharsis

Sick of waking up, I can't sleep
Sick of holding on I'm feeling weak
Life's a superficial fight against the daily fake
Hope & solidarity are losing their own place, place, place
Pseudo intellectuals trying to imitate
The people they pretend to be
I'm shouting it loud
Ain't no one gonna re-write me, hey hey hey

Take, take take (Ahh) Take, take take (Ahh)

Oh, what happened to us, when did the rules change?
When did individuality get swallowed by insane?
Oh, are we all the same?
What's my name, whats my name?
What happened to us, when did the rules change!?

Tired of searching for, reality
Tired of waiting for the way that it should be
The world's lost her morality the battle's with ourselves
Humanity's a dying breed it bites the hand it's dealt, dealt, dealt
Pretentious idiosyncrasies the order of the night
Lost control & power feed, the dying of the light
Ain't no one gonna re-write me, hey hey hey

Take, take take (Ahh) Take, take take (Ahh)

Oh, what happened to us, when did the rules change?
When did individuality get swallowed by insane?
Oh, are we all the same?
What's my name, what's my name?
What happened to us, when did the rules change!?

(Guitar break)

Oh, what happened to us, when did the rules change?
When did individuality get swallowed by insane?
Oh, are we all the same?
What's my name, whats my name?
What happened to us, when did the rules change!?
