Pierce The Veil 'The New National Anthem'

Lyrics:
Drag my hand behind you like a chain behind a truck
Sparks over your carpet while I chase you through the darkness
Somebody's supposed to fall in love, but nobody even calls

Somebody's supposed to tear this place apart until you find me hiding, silently I wait
You'll be excited just to see me someday, everything's okay

Summer and gold, throw their colors at the dark
A mother tells her son, darling look at the sparks
But, you hold my attention without even trying
A beautiful reflection from firework eyes
But, never means forever
Desperation and hanging in the backyard at night

Somebody's supposed to fall in love
Tear this place apart until you find me hiding, silently I wait
You'll be excited just to see me someday, everything's okay

Love, don't forget to bleed so slowly
Haunted hearts we melt over the fabric of your floor
I'm holding her just like she's gold, but I've been running from the sun
And if I ever catch the ones who hurt you
I'm hoping that God looks away this time
So, why would I let you go?

Tear this place apart until you find me hiding, silently I wait
You'll be excited just to see me someday, everything's okay

MOST UNDERRATED SONG BY THEM OMG IT"S SO GOOD

[autumnacosta]

Drag my hand behind you like a chain behind a truck
Sparks over your carpet while I chase you through the darkness

Somebody's supposed to fall in love, but nobody even calls
Somebody's supposed to tear this place apart
Until you find me hiding, silently I wait
You'll be excited just to see me someday, everything's okay

Summer and gold throw their colors at the dark
A mother tells her son: "Darling look at the sparks"
But you hold my attention without even trying
A beautiful reflection from firework eyes, but never means forever
Desperation, and hanging in the backyard at night

Somebody's supposed to fall in love
Tear this place apart
Until you find me hiding, silenty I wait
You'll be excited just to see me someday, everything's okay

Love, don't forget to bleed so slowly
Haunted hearts we melt over the fabric of your floor
I'm holding her just like she's
Gold, but I've been running from the sun
Oh, no, no
And if I ever catch the ones who hurt you, I...
I'm hoping that God looks away this time
So, why would I let you go?
Why would I let you go?

Tear this place apart
Until you find me hiding, silently I wait
You'll be excited just to see me someday, everything's okay

And yet "king for a day" is their top song.

The last chorus is amazing. I always loved this song and so glad it popped back up today.
