Glory And Gore
There's a humming in the restless summer airAnd we're slipping off the course that we preparedBut in all chaos, there is calculationDropping glasses just to hear them breakYou've been drinking like the world was gonna end (it didn't)Took a shiner from the fist of your best friend (go figure)It's clear that someone's gotta goWe mean it but I promise we're not mean
And the cry goes outThey lose their minds for usAnd how it plays outNow we're in the ringAnd we're coming for blood
You could try and take usBut we're the gladiatorsEveryone a ragerBut secretly they're saviorsGlory and gore go hand in handThat's why we're making headlinesYou could try and take usBut victory's contagious
Delicate in every way but one (the swordplay)God knows we like archaic kinds of fun (the old way)Chance is the only game I play with, babyWe let our battles choose us
No-one round here's good at keeping their eyes closedThe sun's starting to light up when we're walking homeTired little laughs, gold-lie promises, we'll always win at thisI don't ever think about deathIt's alright if you do, it's fineWe gladiate but I guess we're really fighting ourselvesRoughing up our minds so we're ready when the kill time comesWide awake in bed, words in my brain,"Secretly you love this do you even wanna go free?"Let me in the ring, I'll show you what that big word means
