Even after 6 months, NOLA was still a wreck
The 9th ward still had water up to your chest
Under I-10, they piled the dead cars
Ever seen an ambulance with high water marks?

They don’t dance no more, all we do is flinch
And brace for that old taste that chase a strong fist
With blood on our lips, and flooded bricks
Taste that whiskey kiss, born sweaty and free
Fuck a club, motherfucker, take that shit to the streets

We were born running away from God!
We were born running away!

10 euros is cheap for sure
He said it all in broken words, 
but these people ain’t got nothing
they’d rather drink what they have then buy your merch 

Čadca isn’t pretty, but Tatranský works
Thick liquor dark brown, made of secret herbs
Slovakia gets busy, they don’t need no words
And anything is club if the speakers work

Turn it up till it shakes the plaster
No kings, no gods, no masters
The beat builds while the euro collapsing
Little kids tagging “all cops are bastards”

AntiFa is passin, in they old jean jackets
They don’t need no magic just to make it happen
Make out, make do, make the best of what you got
And turn the volume up till it shakes the rafters 

Till it shakes the rafters
Till it shakes the rafters
Till it shakes the rafters
We make our own disasters

CHORUS

We ain’t no gangsters
We ain’t no thugs
We’re all just flesh and blood
And we don’t need you to mess this up
We independent son, dig our own graves
Salt our own lands, make our own plagues just for fun
You can test us come
We’ll be waiting by the front gate with the Beam in our cup

And I’m dumbfound how in my home town, when the cops come they all just run
And when the land lord wants us out, we pack our bags and shut the whole thing up
So I was like, “aiiight, what you do when the police come through to shake you down?”
She laughed out loud and said, “we lock them motherfuckers out!”

That’s a true story.

Running Away From God

A song about the girls that catch your eye and make you fall for them instantly, you pursue only to find they will hurt you in the long run.

Silver Gals

Comprised of four best mates from country Victoria, Loose Bricks have made a name for themselves with their energetic live performances and songwriting that capture life's journey from adolescence into adulthood. 

Their latest release “Right Now” is heavily influenced by UK Rock, bringing with it a new level of energy and heavy-hitting chorus’, while still incorporating the lush dream-rock elements that the band are known for. 

Having played multiple interstate tours, sell-out headline shows in Melbourne, Mildura and Adelaide, as well as supporting notable acts Coterie, DICE, Bootleg rascal, Hoodoo Gurus, and Kingswood, the boys will be back on the road supporting the release of their new single in November this year. With their down-to-earth country kid attitude, Loose Bricks will have singing along and spilling a beer like they’re your best mates.
