Track 2 off of Destroyer’s 13th album LABYRINTHITIS. A dance-inspired track about the desire for or illusion of fame and grandeur, and the suffering that comes along with it.
[Intro]
Say it
[Chorus]
No matter when
Don't matter where
You're gonna suffer
Suffer 'neath the weight of the grandeur
You're poisoning
Really poisoning
A drowning in the Trevi Fountain for no reason
The world's gotta know it was you, it was you
It was you, it was you, it was you, it was you, it was you
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse]
Hunting in the dark for an animal
All the girls got soul, and the boys got soul
And the man feels alive when the whim in her eye
Hit the tent where the accidents happen
Hunting in the dark for an animal
All the girls got soul, and the boys got soul
And the world's gotta know it was you, it was you
It was you, it was you
[Chorus]
And no matter when
No mattеr where
You're gonna suffеr
Suffer 'neath the weight of the grandeur
Don't matter when
Don't matter where
You're gonna suffer
Say it
Suffer 'neath the weight of the grandeur
Don't matter when
[Outro]
(You're gonna suffer)
(You're gonna suffer)
(You're gonna suffer)
