Feel it, know it
Trust in the lie you’ve been sold
Oh yeah?
No risk?
Tell yourself whatever you need to hear
To fall just right, like a dagger from a height
Cause’ death to me, is a life lived safely

Gimme something to thin the blood
There’s nothin’ quite like diggin’ graves for fun
It gets my body ringing like a bell
‘Cause I’m the fuckin’ recoil of a gun in hell

Ha ha ha ha ha, alright
No heart
(no heart)
No tick
(no tick)
I’m weak as piss
No risk
No fire
(no fire)
No flame
(no flame)
I’m always feelin’ the same
The risk
(the risk)
It sits
(it sits)
At the tip of my tiny prick
No style
(no style)
No ease
(no ease)
I’m a pathetic forgotten steaze

Alright
The risk
Let’s ride
The risk
Well, alright
The risk
Oh, it’s time
The risk
Okay let’s ride

Hello, Evil Kneviel
Running through the red light
Phillippe Petit, yeah
Walk the tightwire
Take the risk, take the risk
You only live once

Where softer souls do sleep
In the hush of morning’s glow
I rest not, I cannot
I just go
The risk, my muse
For its focus I depend
Nosedive into the ocean
Do dangerous shit and transcend
This world,
(this world)
it spins too slow
Its tempo paints my world in grey
My heart cannot beat fast enough
The risk is technicolour paint
One life,
(one life)
one chance
(one chance)
Clench the moment in your hand
Adrenaline, my dearest friend, it’s me and you until the end

    “We were super lucky to have been granted access to this amazing air hanger. The song was chosen because most of the Gizz guys had a singing part, and I was excited for the mic to be passed around at a fun, never-stopping pace,” director Guy Tyzack said in a statement about filming the video. “The day was super packed tight for what we wanted to get, and we didn’t want to cut corners. Our crew was tight, and the Gizz guys know how to put on a show. We were so tight for time that I didn’t pee all day.” Rolling Stone excerpt

  • @ElKulte
    Joey channeling his inner Freddie Mercury and I'm all here for it
  • @rome8180
    This is a song I would show someone if I wanted to get them into King Gizzard and knew they weren't a fan of "weird" music. This is way more accessible than a lot of their stuff. It feels like a hit.
  • @thirdhandlv4231
    Props to the drummer for setting the tempo at the end of the song, we appreciate you.
  • @nowheredan27

  • @archybruce8990
    I actually started binging King Gizzard for the first time about a month ago. Today (the 8th of July) i finished their discog with The Silver Cord, can’t believe I matched it up perfectly for the new single. Keen.
  • @alcheminty
    Love having multiple vocals from the gang! Feels very collaborative, eh?
  • @RAGNAR-3-3

    Never heard of these guys until this popped up like 3 days ago. I’ve listened to the song about a million times since then
