Arrogance Swallow

this swampy pit of I know
drags in necks from an anklet's throw
taught to be the best
by an owning don't show

the product of who you aren't
do and fuck
the rhythm for a scar
to falsify facts
is what can't be

still wearing name brands
as long as the façade borrows
such as a sinful priest
anyone can answer with pity

unapologetic the minnows flow
ready to know it all
down in Arrogance Swallow
