about
'Play Nice' is inspired by the new age North Victorian Australian religious cult in the 1970s known as 'the family' who was lead by a woman who claimed she is Jesus reborn named Ann Hamilton-Byrne. Byrne stole children from other cult members and were raised under the impression they were her own. The children were constantly abused and drugged by LSD and are still alive to this day. Eventually one of the children escaped alerting police to what was going on.The song is written from the child's perspective.
lyrics
You play nice to break the ice
Twist the knife into my spine
It's killing me to stay in this hell
New age mind games
My identity erased by the family name
Go find a way
Don't stop
Leave this hell
I've been looking for an exit
Mother cries for redemption
As long I confess
