IT’S GOING // DOWN
NO THIS LOVE IS NOT ENOUGH
AND YOUR LIES // YOU PLAY TOO ROUGH
FOR ME // TO KEEP UP WITH THESE CUTS
WHEN IS IT OVER // CAN ANYBODY SAY
WHEN ALL WAS SAID // AND ALL WAS DONE
I LEFT // YOU STAYED
AND EVERY THING’S ON YOUR SIDE
WE’LL STAND TOGETHER AND FIGHT
(TOGETHER WE’LL FIGHT)
THIS WILL BE OUR TIME
WE’LL STAND TOGETHER AND FIGHT
(TOGETHER WE’LL FIGHT)
RISE FROM THE ASHES AND OUT OF THE DARKNESS
WE’LL FIGHT
WE’LL TAKE BACK THE NIGHT
AND TOGETHER WE’LL RISE
UP
WHO WEARS IT NOW?
DID YOU KEEP ALL THAT YOU STOLE
OR DID TIME // CATCH UP AND MAKE YOU
GIVE IT // BACK OR GIVE IT UP
WHEN IT’S ALL OVER // WHEN IT’S ALL DONE
YOU’RE ALWAYS GOING TO WONDER
IF YOU GAVE UP ON THE ONE
I WALK ALONE NOW
WE’LL STAND TOGETHER AND FIGHT
(TOGETHER WE’LL FIGHT)
THIS WILL BE OUR TIME
WE’LL STAND TOGETHER AND FIGHT
(TOGETHER WE’LL FIGHT)
RISE FROM THE ASHES AND OUT OF THE DARKNESS
WE’LL FIGHT
WE’LL TAKE BACK THE NIGHT
AND TOGETHER WE’LL RISE
UP
STAND AND FIGHT
THIS COULD BE OUR TIME
WE COULD BE OLDER
GET OVER IT
SAFELY HIDING
STAND AND FIGHT
THIS COULD BE OUR TIME
WE COULD BE OLDER
GET OVER
AND OUT
TOGETHER WE’LL RISE
“It’s amazing, the analogues between relationships and identity. A song about turning your back on values that don’t sit (haha) right with you, about finding your own morality.”
I always write riffs as single string shit, but I needed a segue, and I didn’t want it to be yet another open string riff, it had to be chord based. I also really wanted to challenge my obsession with diatonics (keeping everything in basic keys common in Western pop music), but I didn’t venture too far – just a flat VI passing note between the VI and the IV replacing the much more common diatonic V.
