"All work and no play / keeps my on the new ****" "Still Sane" is gorgeous! Was impressed by her EP, and this totally sounds just as good! Much respect.
there's a humming in the restless summer air
and we're slipping off the course that we prepared
but in all chaos there is calculation (drop, drop, drop, drop)
dropping glasses just to hear them break
you've been drinking like the world was gonna end (it didn't)
took a shiner from a fist of your best friend (go figure)
it clear that someone's got a goal
we mean it but i promise we're not mean
[pre-chorus]
and the crowd cries out (ahh)
they lose their minds for us
and how it plays out (ahh)
now we're in the ring and we're coming for blood
[chorus]
you can try to take us
but we're the gladiators
everyone will hate you
you're secretly we're saviours
glory & gore go hand in hand
that's why we're making headlines
you can try and take us
but victory's contagious
delicate in every way but one
god knows we like archaic kinds of fun (the old way)
chance is the only game i play with, baby
we let our battles choose us
[pre-chorus+chorus]
no one 'round here is good
at keeping their eyes closed
the sun is starting to light up
when we're walking home
tired little laughs
gold lie promises
we'll always win at this
i don't ever think about death
it's alright if you do, it's fine
we gladiate but i guess we're really fighting ourselves
roughing up our mind so we're ready when the killing time comes
wide awake in bed, words in my brain, secretly
do you even wanna go free?
Let me in the ring, i'll show you what that big word means
