[Verse 1]
It all breaks down into static
I see you at the perimeter
But I felt the tension enter
I half-dreamed of distortion
I can't feel, can't communicate
And now I'm taught defences
Hide [?] for something precious
I'm scattered like confetti
I hear them signals on repeat
Don't tell me I'm not abandoned
I hear voices in the static
[Verse 2]
It drops down when you're not looking
I want to lower your sentinel
I could not leave my outpost
Trapped in a dread condition
I did not heed the warning
I saw the fortress forming
Everything form to an ending
What have I been protecting?
I thought it was noble, something of worth
Now I sift through the ashes
Will I see your face again?
[Chorus]
(Threats) everywhere I look, everywhere I turn
(Threats) everywhere I look, everywhere I turn
(Threats) everywhere I look, everywhere I turn
(Threats) everywhere I look, everywhere I turn
Blowing on the wind like confetti
[Verse 3]
It drops down when you're not looking
As you walk away your edges break up into white noise
There will be no monument, no way to tell what happened
Citizen unknown where all my former happiness is
Blackened in the aftermath, my unrecognisable
I'm scattered like confetti
I hear them signals on repeat
Don't tell me I'm not abandoned
I hear voices in the static
[Chorus]
(Threats) everywhere I look, everywhere I turn
(Threats) everywhere I look, everywhere I turn
(Threats) everywhere I look, everywhere I turn
(Threats) everywhere I look, everywhere I turn
Blowing on the wind like confetti
It's going to get ya
[Bridge]
Just watch it drop
Why are they walking in silence?
There's nowhere to run, na-na-nah
I send a rat to communicate
I watch the vapours rise
Out of the corner of my eye
They step into position
What's happening out there?
(Threats)
(Threats)
[Pre-Chorus]
What have I been protecting?
I thought it was noble, something of worth
Now I sift through the ashes
Will I see your face again?
[Chorus]
(Threats) everywhere I look, everywhere I turn (It's going to get ya)
(Threats) everywhere I look, everywhere I turn
(Threats) everywhere I look, everywhere I turn
(Threats) everywhere I look, everywhere I turn
Blowing on the wind like confetti
(Threats) everywhere I look, everywhere I turn (It's going to get ya)
(Threats) everywhere I look, everywhere I turn
(Threats) everywhere I look, everywhere I turn
(Threats) everywhere I look, everywhere I turn (It's going to get ya)
I see you at the perimeter
