Wasted - The House That Fear Built



  Last year I posted a great song from 2011 by Finnish band Wasted (http://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.co.uk/2015/06/wasted-doom-train.html) and now I'm happy to post something new by them.

  They've been together for 20 years now and to celebrate that milestone they're releasing a new 12" called The Truth Will Not Be Televised. It's scheduled for release on September 16th and you'll find a track from it below.

  The rest of the year will see them touring Europe and the dates are posted on their Facebook page.

  This is The House That Fear Built......

Fear is the foundation of the house we built
The walls of ignorance surround us high and thick

All of these walls have been painted in blood
Guns and prayers are gonna keep us safe from harm

And now we watch it all go down in flames and we keep pointing
at someone else to come and take the blame for all our problems
All the hate and bigotry is what got the fire started
We just keep on putting out fire with gasoline

We see what divides us but we ignore 
all that could unite us and break us through the door 

We see a problem in all solutions found 
All the hate and bigotry will burn us to the ground

And now we watch it all go down in flames and we keep pointing
at someone else to come and take the blame for all our problems
All the hate and bigotry is what got the fire started
We just keep on putting out fire with gasoline

We’re putting out fire with gasoline
