Wave Upon Wave Upon Wave Lyrics
why bother talking
if nobody's listening?
blame it on the final
phase of your induction
why bother talking
if nobody's listening?
name it as a firstborn
the firstborn is dead
there's a knife in my hand
covered in blood, i can't understand
WHY, FUCKER, WHY?
wave upon wave upon
wave upon wave
why bother sitting?
i can't stand sitting
just blame it on someone
it's your own instruction
why bother talking
if nobody's listening?
name it as a firstborn
the firstborn's alive
there's a knife in my hand
covered in blood, i can't understand
WHY, FUCKER, WHY?
WHY, WHY, WHY, WHY?
i've waited so long
i've waited so long
to see what it takes
i can't say no
i can't say no
to see what it takes
aah aah aah
aah aah aah
we're letting it go
just before time
sink to the bottom
of our lives
we're letting it go
before our time
helping us through our sad lives
do you believe in magic?
do you believe in magic?
do you believe in magic?
do you believe in magic?
wave upon wave upon
wave upon wave
if nobody's listening?
blame it on the final
phase of your induction
why bother talking
if nobody's listening?
name it as a firstborn
the firstborn is dead
covered in blood, i can't understand
wave upon wave
i can't stand sitting
just blame it on someone
it's your own instruction
why bother talking
if nobody's listening?
name it as a firstborn
the firstborn's alive
covered in blood, i can't understand
WHY, WHY, WHY, WHY?
i've waited so long
to see what it takes
i can't say no
i can't say no
to see what it takes
aah aah aah
just before time
sink to the bottom
of our lives
we're letting it go
before our time
helping us through our sad lives
do you believe in magic?
do you believe in magic?
do you believe in magic?
wave upon wave

This is one of my favorite songs, in the world... ever! I love the clappping! The first time i saw biffy live i hadn't heard the song before, and everyone in the audience clapped at the right bits, it was amazing.
It gets better as it goes along.
The "Do you beleive in magic?" bit is fucking hypnotising
I agree! The "Do you believe in magic?" bit is incredible.

This has to be one of my top biffy songs. They are my favourite band ever. I think the song is about someone who is so highly strung and stressed and delusioned that they lost it and kill someone? Would love to hear responses!
