Conspiracy of Silence by The Swoons Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Caught in a fire, oh heavenly father
Said he’s takin’ a smoke, but he never came home
Musta fell off the world
The rise and the fall, a shift in the faults
The ultimate violence, conspiracy of silence
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooohs
[Chorus 1]
There’s a rising in the sea
Don’t get swallowed by the deep
Forever, everybody knows
Come hell or high water, time’s gonna have the final say
You find safety in the hush
Keep on gamblin’ on your luck
However, everybody knows
The wicked ain’t resting when everything slows
[Verse 2]
Are you sick to the bone? Cause you reap what you sow
Will you fight for your life or take a fool’s paradise
And just flip the remote?
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooohs
[Chorus 2]
There’s a rising in the sea
Don’t get swallowed by the deep
Forever, everybody knows
Come hell or high water, time’s gonna have the final say
You find safety in the hush
Keep on gamblin’ on your luck
However, everybody knows
Live or die, livin' lies never was timeless
[Interlude]
Say, Say, Say anything
[Verse 3]
Don’t know where you side (say)
There’s blood in your eyes (say)
Will you weapon your skin (say), feed the monster within
Or put up a fight? (say)
[Outro]
Mhmms
Caught in a fire, oh heavenly father
Said he’s takin’ a smoke, but he never came home
Musta fell off the world
The rise and the fall, a shift in the faults
The ultimate violence, conspiracy of silence
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooohs
[Chorus 1]
There’s a rising in the sea
Don’t get swallowed by the deep
Forever, everybody knows
Come hell or high water, time’s gonna have the final say
You find safety in the hush
Keep on gamblin’ on your luck
However, everybody knows
The wicked ain’t resting when everything slows
[Verse 2]
Are you sick to the bone? Cause you reap what you sow
Will you fight for your life or take a fool’s paradise
And just flip the remote?
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooohs
[Chorus 2]
There’s a rising in the sea
Don’t get swallowed by the deep
Forever, everybody knows
Come hell or high water, time’s gonna have the final say
You find safety in the hush
Keep on gamblin’ on your luck
However, everybody knows
Live or die, livin' lies never was timeless
[Interlude]
