lyrics

grit grinding under my teeth
i guess that i can stop if i’m getting you down
i’ll keep myself on a leash
if i were born to hang then i’ll never be drowned
a feather knocked me down
oh what a shame
i was stood in the jaws of defeat
trying to fight for a new moral low ground
i see the parallels when the sinners are
holding the arrows
no feeling left
still we’re dying to know
but that’s the price that you pay for your sorrow
one love for your enemy
two steps from the edge of your sanity
three strikes for the cavalry
you cut me close to the bone
four walls that you’ll never see
five waits for a taste of humanity
six feet, what a travesty
you cut me close to the bone
why don’t you stick around?
it’s just a game but we live on the edge of the seat
we like that and we ain’t easy to talk round
we feel the dagger twist when we’re faced with the straight and the narrow
god knows i’m getting you down

  • This song goes raw. This is my personal favourite song of the singles so far. And that solo was not only unexpected, but it truly screamed and sounded amazing. I'm excited for this new record.
  • @_avorach_4163
    This is clearly the best song from all the singles imo !
  • @UhLeakz
    2:47 made my jaw drop to the fuckin floor, the other singles were fantastic but this one blew them out the fuckin water. so excited for the album
  • @mocha_ftw
    Absolute banger lads, felt like a mix of new and old architects. And that video felt like a Beksinski artwork. Great job!
  • @RallickNom
    Say what you want about the song but the video absolutely slaps EDIT: For everyone saying "the song is good"...i know the song is good, there are others in the comments saying it isn't, hence my wording. I love the song
  • @PlxelGuy
    This song is going to be amazing live. Totally has the type of last song at a concert vibe
  • @RuDiis100
    This song is such a great example what sticking to yourself and evolving will bring for results. Such a masterpiece, please never stop beeing yourselfs and exploring what is possible.
