Lyrics
Let's be honest
Expressing a desire for honesty.
We live a lie
Acknowledging living a deceptive existence.
Just a bunch of half blind sheep
Describing people as somewhat ignorant followers.
With the wool pulled up on our eyes
Illustrating a metaphor of willful blindness.
Touch the tonic
Suggesting an act of consuming something potent.
Sip the sky
Metaphorically experiencing the vastness of the sky.
Fuck a revolution, armageddon televised
Rejecting the idea of a revolution and referencing a televised apocalypse.
Lean on your lovers
Encouraging reliance on loved ones like falling dominoes.
Like dominoes
Metaphorically describing interpersonal connections.
Will we find a way to live together?
Pondering the possibility of harmonious coexistence.
Heaven only knows
Expressing uncertainty about the future, leaving it to fate.
The only way I let it out
Describing the need to release emotions.
Is to find a way to write it down
Choosing writing as a therapeutic outlet.
If the feeling didn't come around
Emphasizing the sporadic nature of emotions.
Heaven only knows
Reiterating uncertainty about divine knowledge.
Sometimes it's hard to find the words to say
Highlighting difficulty in expressing thoughts verbally.
But I think about it every day
Constantly thinking about a particular subject.
Will we find a loving way?
Pondering the prospect of finding a loving solution.
Heaven only knows
Reiterating uncertainty about divine knowledge.
Heaven only knows
Repeating uncertainty about divine knowledge with emphasis.
Till the teller
Encouraging formal appearance and conformity.
Tuck your tie
Emphasizing the routine of work life.
Keep on clocking in, get back to work, let's monetize
Promoting the commercialization of time.
The king of diamonds
Introducing a metaphorical king with misplaced priorities.
Rules the land
Describing the ruler's dominion.
Problem is, he's got his mind on his money
Pointing out the king's fixation on wealth.
And his money on a bad hand
Indicating the king's unfortunate situation.
The only way I let it out
Reiterating the need to express emotions.
Is to find a way to write it down
Stressing the therapeutic value of writing.
If the feeling didn't come around
Reflecting on the unpredictability of emotions.
Heaven only knows
Reiterating uncertainty about divine knowledge.
Sometimes it's hard to find the words to say
Expressing difficulty in verbal communication.
But I think about it every day
Emphasizing persistent contemplation.
Will we find a loving way?
Questioning the possibility of finding a loving solution.
Heaven only knows
Reiterating uncertainty about divine knowledge.
Heaven only knows (woo)
Repeating uncertainty about divine knowledge with emphasis.
Reinforce the idea that you get what's really going on
Encouraging awareness of reality.
Reject any voice that tries to tell you
Rejecting opposing viewpoints that challenge one's beliefs.
That you might be wrong
Discouraging self-doubt in the face of dissent.
The only way I let it out
Reiterating the need to express emotions.
Is to find a way to write it down
Stressing the therapeutic value of writing.
Will we find a loving way?
Pondering the possibility of finding a loving solution.
Heaven only knows
Reiterating uncertainty about divine knowledge.
Heaven only knows
Repeating uncertainty about divine knowledge with emphasis.
