You stand tall
You think right
You’re pretty sure nothing is wrong with you
Until your hands they shake, and they can’t hold your cigarette
The lines begin to shift
You’re scared
You stand slight
Your lips curve
So you hide the lack and keep the ones you love
Leave the life of lies and live alone
Be low
So the rest can raise up your heart of gold
Until your hands they shake, and they can’t hold your cigarette
At these strange lows
Strangers seem to follow
Lead them where they cannot go
At these strange lows
Quiet peace is hard to keep our own
In these stranger lows
Can you still picture the rabbit you followed?
Do you still look up and feel small when you feel the thread that fate pulls along?
Can you still picture the rabbit you followed?
Do you look up and feel small?
When you feel your luck stop, be afraid to get up.
At these strange heights, the Lord looks up to find you.
At these strange lows
Strangers seem to follow
Lead them where they cannot go
At these strange lows
Quiet peace is hard to keep our own
At these stranger lows
the evolution of citizen is almost identical to the typical depiction of human evolution. As you please strays from the previous releases while containing raw emotion. ghøstbødy
Been following Somos for many years, feeling that they had an opus in them...well, here it is. Driving pop-punk sensibilities lend an upbeat tone in contrast to the grim lyrical proceedings, and they absolutely pull it off. Evocative music that's been on repeat for me all month long.
