lyrics

When the sound is stucked
In a memory, locked
My eyes can't see
My brain can't flee

I'm off in a whirl
Or in a sand castle
Caught overthinking
Of a better world

My hands on the back
My head in the sky
Ready to be stabbed
By the radio's lies

And this is how it starts
As an underrated act
The new sound in fact
Is striking at last

Write it under 4
Sing it like a choir
Visions on the shore
Begging for more

The day after he died
Crowds and million eyes
Gathered and cried
Stars in their eyes

Wear it in pendants
Necklaces of hope
Where freedom lies
Building the map

The red curtains are on
Your pretty face all dolled up
Shine like the sun
But hide all the cuts

The hideous dancing
The scared legs and hands
Bursting in tears
And they're all cheering.

It hurts my sight
I have to fight
The upper hands
The sacred end.
