Loyal like Syd & Nancy
Parading to the massesWe're coming so fresh to deathI've been stealing looks from shadowsYou conjure with your purseYeah you're walking in stilettosBut your nose is bleeding outI've been running from the devilBut the devil's on my backI'm decreasingTook a leave of absence from the warIf the wall is coming downThen we got to press the pedalGot my hands up in the airI'm saying I can't breatheI got my hands up in the airI'm saying
Hey man get away from meYeah, hey man get away from me
Never ask for any favorsThere's nothing I want from youI've been looking for an answerTo keep me from falling throughAnd I'm waiting for the voice to speak 'cause I can't seeI hope we'll hear the sound eventually
I felt their claws obstruct and refuseRefugees in the new RomeThey've locked our voices in the ovenLike Sylvia at homeMy eyes are on the worldMy hands anxiousTo feel something realTrue colors tend to glistenAnd then revealWhere's the love?And why are we so far from love?
Chased by badges, duckin' lightsPush the dagger when it's rightMartial law, inshallahMi casa es tuyaGhosting like I'm Daniel JohnstonAnd I'm locked up in the basementWhere Satan lies in satin tweetsAnd realigns his face liftThe criminals are laughingWith their empty, toothless facesWe've melted all our goldTo recommence our idol worshipWe all pretend one dayWe'll be the greatest of the GatsbysGrowling mouths with rabiesAnd loyal like Sid & Nancy
Hey man get away from meYou pretend you got controlHey man get away from me
Never ask for any favorsThere's nothing I want from youI've been praying for an answerTo keep me from falling throughYeah I'm waiting for the voice to speak 'cause I can't seeWe'll hear the sound eventuallyWe'll hear the soundWe'll hear the sound eventually
