Vigil Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You took all we had away
You’re quick to call it sick, but we’ve been damned to say
[Pre-Chorus]
I can’t breathe, it’s a cellphone
Please don’t shoot, I need to get home
I’m on my knees begging please
[Chorus]
So you’re just following orders
They just keep falling on us
How many more will it last?
Why not just take all of us?
[Verse 2]
You took all our hope away
We try to keep it down but we’re all damned to say
[Pre-Chorus]
I can’t breathe, it’s a cellphone
Please don’t shoot, I need to get home
I’m on my knees begging please
[Chorus]
So you’re just following orders
They just keep falling on us
How many more will it last?
Why not just take all of us?
[Bridge]
Wе won’t take this quietly
We won’t takе this quietly
(Won’t you help me run now?)
We won’t take this quietly
We won’t take this quietly
(Won’t you help me run now?)
We won’t take this quietly
We won’t take this quietly
(Won’t you help me run now?)
We won’t take this quietly
We won’t take this quietly
(Won’t you help me run now?)
[Verse 3]
How to take a life we’ll never get them back
(Won’t you help me run now?)
[Outro]
I can’t breathe, it’s a cellphone
Please don’t shoot, I need to get home
I’m on my knees begging please

What did Zeal & Ardor say about "Vigil"?
This is actually the first song I wrote post-George Floyd, and it’s literally just about that situation and how it ate into me. I basically took all of that anger and sadness that I felt at that time and put it into words and sad melodies. It pretty much gives the whole context of what’s to come.
