UPSIDE DOWN

358 SE

 

I released my own sacred world

Like the sun I’ll face the sky and sing to you, burn with you

So, fire can turn me on

Like the stars I’ll heat my core and make you scream, bend your soul

 

We can dance and drink and carry on

Come and see this world is upside down

 

So, now that we’re far and gone

Like the sun we’ll face the sky and spit our blood into the wind

So, we’ll take the weight off our hearts

Like the stars we’ll fill our hands with clay and quartz to build our homes

 

No, we’ll never betray our world

Piercing eyes prepared for war, our shield is love our love is sword

So, destroying archaic thoughts

Have no fear, nor guilt nor shame, that’s how we’re born, how we’re free

 

We can dream and dance and carry on

Come and see this world is upside down

 

Like the sun we’ll face the sky and die with it, die for good

Ooh fire can turn me on

 

I released my own sacred world

Like the sun I’ll face the sky and sing to you, burn with you

 

We can dare and dream and carry on

Come and see this world is upside down

 

THE OLD

Sometimes we lose and sometimes we don’t

But always we go down

Sometimes we love and sometimes we don’t

But always we go down

 

THE NEW

Sometimes we fail, sometimes we don’t

But always we can try

Always we die and that’s all we know

Our lives burn like the stars

 

THE OLD

Some lives are good and some lives are not

But all of us go down

Some never smile, some never cry

And everyone goes down

 

THE NEW

Most only grieve and most only pray

But some learn how to fight

Some only take and some just destroy

Yet others still create

Some give their hearts and some are so bold

That they can turn any world upside down
