Guard Down Songtext
von Ruben Hein

There′s a buzz in the streets,
There's stir in the seas
There′s a noise in the ether

It's right in front of our eyes
But the sweetest of lies
Is the hardest to wake from

In the thoughts that we think
In the water we drink
In the music we dance to

And the rhythm goes on,
Though the rhythm is wrong
We know

'Cause we all know what is going on
But we close our eyes, you see
And we all know how to play along
But we′re losing so hear my plea


Don′t let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Don′t let your guard down
Don't let your guard down

There′s no way to maintain
These games in the grey
It's a losing religion

There′s a knock on our door
But we're out on the floor
Now who's going to answer?

It′s not the time to hold back
And hide from the fact
The damage is done

′Cause if this rhythm goes on
Then the rhythm is gone
We know

Come what may,
I finally found a place where we could stay
It's where we poured the whiskey on the grave
Come what may
Come what may
Come what may
I finally found a place where we could stay


And we all know what is going on
But we close our eyes, you see
And we all know how to play along
But we′re losing so hear my plea

And we all know what is going on
But we close our eyes, you see
And everybody knows how to play along
But we're losing so hear my plea

Don′t let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Don′t let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Don′t let your guard down
Don′t let your guard down
Don't let your guard down
Don′t let your guard down
No

Don't let your guard down
Don′t let your guard down
No
Don't let your guard down
Don′t let your guard down
