Benny by KHARTOUM Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2021

[Verse 1]
Benny was a dreamer
A sugar-coated believer
So tell him nothing for real
Alice in the sky
It's what keeps her alive
So tell her nothing for real

[Pre-Chorus]
They risk it all on a currency of lies
The internet calls for a Bonnie and Clyde
A pinstripe suit and pearls around her neck
Heavy hangs the truth for living in the moment

[Chorus]
Trading feelings
It never goes away
Is it made for your taste?
If you only listen
You can hear them say
Nothing is real in the modern age
[Verse 2]
Benny was a chancer
On his second time round
So give him something to feel
Alice was the answer
She wore the internets crown
So give her something to feel

[Pre-Chorus]
They risk it all on a currency of lies
The internet calls for a Bonnie and Clyde
A pinstripe suit and pearls around her neck
Heavy hangs the truth for living in the moment

[Chorus]
Trading feelings
It never goes away
Is it made for your taste?
If you only listen
You can hear them say
Nothing is real in the modern age
Trading feelings
It never goes away
Is it made for your taste?
If you only listen
You can hear them say
Nothing is real in the modern age
[Bridge]
Nothing is real when you go online
Reinvent your life
Something to feel a different kind
Heal the numbness on my mind
I change my face, I change my race
I change my sex in a text
Show you where reality hides

[Chorus]
Trading feelings
It never goes away
Is it made for your taste?
If you only listen
You can hear them say
Nothing is real
In the modern age
Trading feelings
It never goes away
Is it made for your taste?
If you only listen
You can hear them say
Nothing is real
In the modern age
