This track is about is about questioning why the sky would choose to be blue if it had the choice to be anything else, “blue also meaning sad,” states frontman Aaron Pauley. “It's about comforting a loved one in a time of loss by telling them you feel blue, too.”
Here am I, above this world
A face in flames and a knowing smile
Dream your dreams and tread your paths
It all ends the same, alone in the dark
And here am I drunk and bored
Even I don't want to drink any more
Here you are drunk and scared
You have finally realised that life's not fair
Outside they are gathering and their fangs are bared
For the bigger your fangs, the bigger your share
What deity made us, was it a good idea?
In theory maybe, in practice, oh dear
And here am I drunk and bored
Even I don't want to drink any more
Here you are drunk and scared
You have finally realised that life's not fair
Here am I, above this world
A face in flames and a knowing smile
Dream your dreams and tread your paths
It all ends the same, alone in the dark
And here am I drunk and bored
Even I don't want to drink any more
Here you are drunk and scared
You have finally realised that life's not fair
A face in flames and a knowing smile
Dream your dreams and tread your paths
It all ends the same, alone in the dark
And here am I drunk and bored
Even I don't want to drink any more
Here you are drunk and scared
You have finally realised that life's not fair
Outside they are gathering and their fangs are bared
For the bigger your fangs, the bigger your share
What deity made us, was it a good idea?
In theory maybe, in practice, oh dear
And here am I drunk and bored
Even I don't want to drink any more
Here you are drunk and scared
You have finally realised that life's not fair
Here am I, above this world
A face in flames and a knowing smile
Dream your dreams and tread your paths
It all ends the same, alone in the dark
And here am I drunk and bored
Even I don't want to drink any more
Here you are drunk and scared
You have finally realised that life's not fair
