It's all about you It's all about you It's all about you I'm your quirky fool, use me, I'm your fantasy I'm your sexy tool for your growth My goals, my development Who cares? My mind, myself Who cares? It's all about you I'm your free therapist Your vapid ramona flowers I'll give your miserable life a purpose I'll teach you how to embrace it I'll open your eyes And save you from yourself An illusion fading in the sunset And you'll never hear about me again I'm your Manic Pixie Dream Girl Truth is, Can't see, won't see my eyes, You don't know who I am Can't see, won't see my eyes You don't know me Who cares? Your delusional dreams of your idealised image of me, of my one dimensional personality. Someone I'm not Someone I’m not It's not me Who cares?

Missandra 03:07
Well, they can call me a bitter b*tch But they don't know how it is, To be undermined, put down and put aside Degraded, mocked and criticised This is our reality, they gatekeep our individuality We're seeking a place to fit, an approval, yet We're non-existent or getting the second role Only to be sexualised, I shoot daggers out of my eyes I am someone Facing my tormentors, armoured to strike back This is not a war, this is just how I react Hatred to their offence,it’s what saved my life It's my shield, it's my defence It's my way to survive Daggers out of my eyes. I despise them Missandra And they dare call me missandra?

about

Shooting Daggers are a thrilling and visceral amalgam of hardcore punk, riot girrl and metalcore. They describe themselves as a feminist punk/queercore band who cite their influences as bands like Gouge Away, G.L.O.S.S, Turnstile and Gel.
Quite frankly whoever they’re influenced by, Shooting Daggers’ no holds barred sound and approach is all their own, and really knocked us sideways when we heard it.
As it will you.
This first single is a full on statement of intent, musically not just content to career from A to Z, but with enough twists and turns to take you on a short but thrilling journey. It is without doubt proper punk rock, shit kicking UKHC shorn of vacuous posturing, and possessing a message, an attitude and ’in yer face’ excitement in spades.

You get the track 'Missandra' free when you purchase MPDG.
