Above / Below Songtext
von Birds of Tokyo

We still followed every order
Swallowed the bleach and left our skins to rust
We′ve fallen asleep with the wolves, so many dead
While the village was burning, we all slept
How did we not keep check?

Maybe we took it too far
Every word, every scar
So above, so below

Suffer the weight, suffocate under the cause (under the cause)
It starves you of everything
Surrender your will to the man in the clouds (man in the clouds)
He's not who you think he is

Follow your heart, if you dare
Follow it down out of the light
Where there′s no one else
And you can lose yourself


Maybe we took it too far
Every word, every scar
So above, so below, so below
So above, so below

We put all this space between us
We had several years of luck
We were lions with the cattle
We put diamonds in the rough

We were so lost in the battle
We were chasing after ghosts
We were so close to believing
There was something more than us

When fear drags you down and under
Oh, and the dark holds you deep enough

Give me your hand if you dare
Give me your hand
I'll be dilligent with it, you might slip
And you will lose yourself

Maybe we took it too far
Every word, every scar
So above, so below, so below
So above, so below


We put all this space between us
We had several years of luck
We were lions with the cattle
We put diamonds in the rough

We were so lost in the battle
We were chasing after ghosts
We were so close to believing
There was something more than us (so above, so below)

We put all this space between us (so above, so below)
We were so close to believing (so above, so below)
We put all this space between us (so above, so below)
We were so close to believing (so above, so below)
