We Will Become Silhouettes (Matthew Dear Remix)
[Intro]
Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
[Verse 1]
I've got a cupboard with cans of food
Filtered water and pictures of you
And I'm not coming out until this is all over
And I'm looking through the glass
Where the light bends at the cracks
And I'm screaming at the top of my lungs
Pretending the echoes belong to someone
Someone I used to know
[Chorus]
And we become silhouettes when our bodies finally go
[Verse 2]
I wanted to walk through the empty streets
To feel something constant under my feet
But all the news reports recommended that
I stay indoors
Because the air outside will make our cells
Divide at an alarming rate until our shells
Simply cannot hold all our insides in
And that's when we'll explode
(And it won't be a pretty sight)
[Chorus]
And we'll become silhouettes when our bodies finally go
And we'll become silhouettes when our bodies finally go
And we'll become silhouettes when our bodies finally go
And we'll become silhouettes when our bodies finally go
[Outro]
And we'll become
And we'll become
