《Mayday》歌词

[00:00:01] born in the flood

[00:00:02] bloody fingerprint sets

[00:00:03] black marketed fresh

[00:00:05] water canons forget me not

[00:00:07] epitaph airbrush with death

[00:00:09] white t's

[00:00:11] wife beaters

[00:00:12] button up

[00:00:12] reattach flesh

[00:00:14] in between the lines

[00:00:16] outside of the law

[00:00:18] underneath the veil

[00:00:19] we dig our foundations

[00:00:21] we navigate the globe

[00:00:22] trying to find a pattern to break the mold

[00:00:25] with a family to feed

[00:00:26] theres nowhere we won't go

[00:00:27] but what if were caught

[00:00:28] they say i'm a snitch

[00:00:30] shot at the check point

[00:00:32] found with his throat slit

[00:00:34] theres spray paint on the teleprompter

[00:00:36] anchorman screams that hes seen a monster

[00:00:38] mayday

[00:00:39] theres bloodstains on his shirt

[00:00:40] mayday

[00:00:41] they say that hes gone berserk

[00:00:45] sometimes

[00:00:46] when i wanna shut out this world

[00:00:48] wanna rip up this page

[00:00:50] wanna pour out this heart

[00:00:51] wanna get up on this stage

[00:00:53] and my lips become percussion

[00:00:55] and my fists become the rage

[00:00:56] and i pound on this table

[00:00:58] til it gives me something to say

[00:01:00] then i think about things that i've seen

[00:01:01] right in front of me

[00:01:02] that i don't wanna believe

[00:01:03] gimme one of these mikes

[00:01:04] lemme let em know

[00:01:05] the way that it is is not how its gonna be

[00:01:08] not if we don't let em get ahead of us

[00:01:10] the present tensions no threat

[00:01:12] its just a fence across the path

[00:01:13] that were already ready to walk

[00:01:15] rock solid footsteps

[00:01:16] let em put up obstacles

[00:01:17] and prove that it isn't possible

[00:01:20] we don't give em any weight

[00:01:22] true liberty and freedoms at stake

[00:01:23] peace will never become pass

[00:01:24] live my life until my last day

[00:01:26] it was half-past eight in the bat cave

[00:01:29] when the cracks in the plaster collapsed

[00:01:31] and gave way to gaps in the pavement

[00:01:32] mayday mayday

[00:01:34] put it on blast

[00:01:35] for the passengers and messengers

[00:01:36] cause this is a disaster

[00:01:39] not far

[00:01:41] off pissing on a cop car

[00:01:42] in the hall with a pop tart

[00:01:44] sipping liquor in the rock bar

[00:01:46] everyone climb to the front line

[00:01:48] lunchtimes canceled

[00:01:49] all hands on deck to pull survivors from the landfill

[00:01:52] onlookers passers-by shake off that rubble

[00:01:55] brush off your shoulders

[00:01:57] break free from your standstill

[00:01:59] signs of a better world

[00:02:02] causes we understand

[00:02:03] failures we expected to occur

[00:02:05] and bring redemption for our sins

[00:02:07] safety from the crowds

[00:02:09] in the shadows on the run

[00:02:11] we write our own cider house

[00:02:13] rules to keep alive

[00:02:15] rituals that prove their worth

[00:02:17] search for systems we can trust

[00:02:18] rhythms we can lock into

[00:02:24] this is madness salvage teams can't bandage

[00:02:26] hope when its damaged or broken compassion

[00:02:28] not enough rope in the van when world is collapsing

[00:02:28] our mode of action broadcast through the glass

[00:02:30] its all we can manage donate with the plastic

[00:02:33] scraps from the salad

[00:02:35] hoping to balance emotions invalidated

[00:02:36] and staged on 4:3 aspects

[00:02:38] just ballast for sadness

[00:02:39] lives shattered are standard fare for cameras and channels

[00:02:43] stare no abracadabras

[00:02:44] no faster answers or mantras for disasters

[00:02:46] remastered and plastered got it all backwards

[00:02:48] do you know the faction your backing

[00:02:51] its another man down

[00:02:52] another mother gone

[00:02:53] child drowned

[00:02:54] another silenced song

[00:02:55] solitude

[00:02:56] another kind of strong

[00:02:56] i miss you

[00:02:57] another strung along

[00:02:58] missing in action

[00:02:59] another page is blackened burned

[00:03:01] turned to ashes to ashes

[00:03:03] dust off the flags and the caskets

[00:03:04] we will never find another you

[00:03:06] despite the life of love we knew

[00:03:08] these lightning times are trouble who

[00:03:09] can't count the strikes that punished through

[00:03:11] the bonds we thought would never break

[00:03:13] and never will and never fade and never change

[00:03:14] but there is the rage

[00:03:16] of losing you to their mistakes

[00:03:17] in between the lines

[00:03:19] signs of a the next movement

[00:03:20] refuge from the crowd

[00:03:21] outside of the law

[00:03:22] causes we understand

[00:03:23] hands that trace

[00:03:23] instructions for descendants in the

[00:03:24] shadows on the run

[00:03:26] underneath the veil

[00:03:27] failures we expected to

[00:03:28] occur and bring redemption for our sins

[00:03:30] in between the lines
