East of 1989; Battle of the Bay Songtext
von Hopesfall

Caught force, looked over
Courting gravity, we′re older
We all found out we're weightless
And leaden with potential
Water filters that screams of dead sailors
Lift off a bridge swims of Sacramento
The last thing we see is tai lights with strings
And time is spinning out a way
One photograph back
A tunnel is shrinking
No flash, no love, nothing involved
At the start of it all, the start of it all
Don′t even try
To maximize these plans
I steal
I catch this wind
After all (of) my lies
Don't you dare fall for
How (I) could be depends
On the cold you bring


The image you cast over me
Is just a subterfuge
I can be a ghost
Or the hero that says: My darling
Why don't you save yourself
(Because) If we die we′ll leave some behind
To lust for what seems like the performance of a life
We′ve incriminated hesi-, hesitation
Don't even try
To maximize these plans
I steal
I catch this wind
After all (of) my lies
Don′t you dare fall for
How (I) could be depends
On the cold you bring
Before I cast over
(Don't even) Bend down to the world
To bend down to the world, bend down to the world
So don′t even try to
To bend down to the world
In bending down to the world
The earth will follow through [will follow through]
In bending (been) down to the world, lived it all
And the earth will follow through
Like we give love
For a chance to make capital
They said bend down to the world, lived it all
Bend down to the world, bend down to the world
If we could see more than we believe the earth would swallow
If we could see more than we believe the earth would swallow you
