lyrics

The Music

when you can't go on
there's your favorite song
the singer doesn’t know
what they've done

suddenly you don't
you feel alone
something sounds on
to the odd man out

the music doesn't lie
it makes you hard
it gets you high

nothing describes
the way it makes you
feel inside

there you are with
your cult heroes
connected through sound
to beautiful losers

all injustices
of the world
suddenly feel
immaterial

the music doesn’t lie
it takes you far
it makes you cry

something inside
puts everything wrong
in the right

secrets exploding
at the speed the sound
billions singing
little hearts out

look out at
all that surrounds you
you could almost believe
life’s too beautiful
