Badnew - Garra Lyrics

They let you think you're safe
You've got em entertained
You think you're drinking water
Cos it's what they sold you

And you just don't believe
You're holding hands with stranglers
The charming grasp
It guides you to the end

You tell yourself this just isn't as it seems
The silence says it all, you don't want to know
Have you cast them out and make you cut the cord
Now you praise their name and they cut your throat

Start the riots
Call the horsemen--enough
Bring the blackout
I've seen all I can and can't turn away

Taken all you can from me
Everything I loved, a memory
Each bruise, each scar, a work of art
When I have your eyes you'll finally see

You don't seem to notice
How they move your limbs
Indentured servant or accomplices

Just when you feel you're in control
You'll watch the ground give way beneath you

Like taking your advice
From a severed head
Thinking that you'll make it out in one piece

You got your phantom voice
They let you run in place
If you only knew how far they'll take it

So convinced that you're playing the same game
First turn in roulette, fully loaded gun
It's all gold because you play for the same team
Just cos you're getting f*cked don't mean you call it love

Start the riots
Call the horsemen--enough
Bring the blackout
I've seen all I can and can't turn away

Taken all you can from me
Everything I loved, a memory
Each bruise, each scar, a work of art
When I have your eyes, you'll finally see

I am the smoke that fills your lungs
Now breathe
