Nur Ein XIX Round Seven "Parting Shot"

Post by Spintown »

Spintown & Company

Lyrics: Spintown
Music & Vocals: Joe Romero
I'm going to credit Warrant (Cherry Pie) for reasons that should be obvious. But this is a shadow, so I don't care, I'm playing for fun only at this point.

With this title, it kinda had to be another song about me playing Bed Wars.

Music Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6VENhVmukM

(Verse 1)
You try to dodge, and hide with nicks
You target me, you know my tricks
Overlay bitch, called out my stats
Next you team, get trapped like rats
Your toxic trash, I chat report
Now your muted, and a bad sport
And now the hacks, they get turned on
But it's too late, my bow is drawn

(Pre-chorus)
You couldn't cope and now you die
Get ready as I pierce the sky

(Chorus)
You can cry and whine
But your soul is mine with a parting shot
Can you read the sign
You walked a thin line and you've been got

(Verse 2)
You jump high, with super speed
It didn't work, so you plead
Your next plan, was to invis me
The compass wins, as you can see
Oh fireballs, will get you clipped
Diamond armor, you're ill-equipped
You block spam, and block in
You can't hide, you can't win

(Pre-chorus)
You couldn't cope and now you die
Get ready as I pierce the sky

(Chorus)
You can cry and whine
But your soul is mine with a parting shot
Can you read the sign
You walked a thin line and you've been got

(Long over indulging guitar solo)

(Bridge)
You search for a rotating prayer
Curse the game and say it isn't fair
Punch bow wielding slayer sits & stares
Waiting to get you in his crosshairs

(Verse 3)
You went to far, backed out too late
Then chucked a pearl, but not so great
Bridge eggs help, it's just a tease
Your castle falls, if I please
You camp diamonds, but I can wait
Or in and out, to frustrate
No need to be, a play maker
If you know, the tie breaker

(Pre-chorus)
You couldn't cope and now you die
Get ready as I pierce the sky

(Chorus)
You can cry and whine
But your soul is mine with a parting shot
Can you read the sign
You walked a thin line and you've been got

(Outro)
Your soul is mine
With a parting shot
Your soul is mine
With a parting shot

Parting Shot
by Brown Word and the Big Whine

A force of nature has a face
And yes indeed they have a name
I'd tell anybody I was impressed
But that sounds like a good thing

Never seen nothing like you
Never again might be too soon
Hit me with your parting shot
Long as that means you'll leave me alone
Long as that means you're gone

Every coin has two faces
It's a toss-up what you're gonna get
I dedicate this little ballad to
A legendary piece of work

Never seen nothing like you
Never again might be too soon
Hit me with your parting shot
Long as that means you'll leave me alone
Long as that means you're gone

["How do we do it?"
"You can't.
You still don't understand what you're dealing with do you?
Perfect delusions of morality."]

I watched you wait for me to fall
As if you knew I would
Clownshoes on banana peels
Ass over teakettle into the void

I'm human I'm human I'm human baby
I'm human-ing I'm human-ing the best I can

"Parting Shot"
by Moss Palace

Why do you have to be right?
Feel safer on my knees
I’m praying for a ceasefire
Every time we disagree

When I hear you say
“Don’t run away”
“Don’t run away”
Oh how can I stay?
It’s so hard to try
When I never win
The games that you play
The games that you play

I try to smooth your feathers
My tongue, a string of knots
Still sweeping up the ashes
From your best parting shots

Then, I heard you say
“Don’t run away”
“Don’t run away”
But how can I stay?
It’s so hard to try
when I never win
The games that you play
The games that you play

Can promises be trusted?
“I’m sorry” can’t be found
My hope wants to believe you
My faith is losing ground

Then, I heard you say
“Don’t run away”
“Don’t run away”
But how can I stay?
It’s so hard to try
when I never win
The games that you play
The games that you play

Then, I heard you say
“Don’t run away”
“Don’t run away”
But how can I stay?
It’s so hard to try
when I never win
The games that you play
The games

Balance Lost
featuring guest vocals by chewmeupspitmeout


Lyrics:
We can bang loudly on the floorboards
There's nobody downstairs
They got tired of our antics
Feral romantics

You're asking questions you
Don't want the answers to
So let's pretend
It never happened

Every time you insult me as you're leaving
I have no more patience with
The nonsense that you believe in
I'm convinced there must be another way
Than bile and recriminations
Before I walk away

I'm in my own world
And you build a wall of self-help
Pages and pages
But nothing changes

I make lasagna, you do the ironing
Push one to many buttons
Why can't we do it in reverse
Save the worst for first

All the while You deconstruct my character
Flaws that soon reveal me
As conceited and contrived
But I might see the twinkle in your eye
Shows me something that you're hiding
That just might make it alright

-- middle --

Every time you insult me as you're leaving
I have no more patience with
The nonsense that you believe in
I'm convinced there must be another way
Than bile and recriminations
Before I walk away
All the while You deconstruct my character
Flaws that soon reveal me
As conceited and contrived
But I might see the twinkle in your eye
Shows me something that you're hiding
That just might make it alright
