PERIPHERY - Catch Fire

Periphery III: Select Difficulty // OUT NOW

CATCH FIRE // LYRICS

Lock eyes like we’re staring down the barrel of a shotgun
Appear so quickly
Leave as swiftly as you came
Sometimes I wish I had the measure of a wise man
But I set the mood, plant the tomb and bury all the bones within
It sure is something when we all catch fire
Bodies burning like the sunrise

Stay with me, I’ll show you paradise
It feels so right
Give me that peace of mind and I’ll give you everything
Just know it feels so good that I could die and be alright

Alive
We breathe when everything is as it seems
But is there something much more?
Underneath the sheets, beneath the skin
there’s a beauty waiting to be adored
We’re cradled in the thick of it, but too ignorant to give a shit
We set the mood, we plant the tomb and bury all the bones within
Don’t keep me hanging from the mouth
It sure is something when we all catch fire
Bodies burning like the sunrise

Stay with me, I’ll show you paradise
It feels so right
Give me that peace of mind and I’ll give you everything
Just know it feels so good that I could die and join the stars
Give me that peace of mind and I’ll give you everything
Stay with me, I’ll show you paradise
It feels so right

We exist in this moment only to fly
Just stay with me
Twisting love as we hold it on the inside
Just stay with me

It sure is something when we all catch fire
Bodies burning like the sunrise

Stay with me, I’ll show you paradise
It feels so right
Give me that peace of mind and I’ll give you everything
Just know it feels so good that I could die and join the stars
Give me that peace of mind and I’ll give you everything
Stay with me, I’ll show you paradise
It feels so right

You know what makes me smile? On EVERY new song they've posted, there are a handful of people saying "Best song on the album". And every one of you are right. This is album is fucking incredible.

[meatlad]

This is one of those songs that I wish I could listen to for the first time again.

[CRAYNEATR]

Spencer gettin' that Ragnarok note once again at the end. Talk all the shit you want, he's fucking amazing.

[marcusleite]

2:13 when spencer sings "paradise" layed 4-5 times in a cluster of nearby yeaaa.

[Rodrigoobx]

2024 and this banger is still not a genre

[garimasharma]

I was playing this song in my car and everybody went quite and at about the 1 minute mark I noticed my friend in the rear tapping his legs to the beat and my passenger princess humming the chorus at the end.

[Mark-fctu]

I like Periphery's upbeat songs. They have a unique feel to them.

[albandeouf]

I know, this song is "poppy", and I don't like that usually, but I can't stop listening to this song. Spencer's vocal lines are amazing in my opinion, especially on pre-chorus and chorus parts. So catchy, so inspired, so effective. Thank you Periphery, for providing us amazing songs in many different styles, each time. Can't wait to see you in live again !

[centraltexasmetalman]

I will forever stay with Periphery, they always show me paradise. It feels so

[dreaminginnoother]

jesus, even when ya'll write a pop song it's like the best pop song ever made.

[ArtGuitarLTX]

@1:15 That Vocal rhythmic line always reminds me of Faith No more’s Epic. Anyone else catch that? 🧐 Man this album is so amazingly diverse! Same with Hail Stan. Amazing band.

[Tegawe]

Periphery gives me a sense of serendity as I take my place in the machine of society. I used to be a free soul that didnt give a shit. Now I work towards an ultimate goal of middle class benefits and its great but yet sucks at the same time because I want to be able to do what I want when I want. I turn on periphery when I'm down and the music makes things better.

[eviltoad]

DAMN! Spencer has VASTLY improved his cleans on this album! That chorus is so powerful!

[AMcCann]

The fire I'm catching is this whole fucking album.

[Mozaiq]

I don't care what any of y'all say. I love their old stuff just as much as their new stuff.

And do ya know why?

Not because its Djent

But because its Periphery. It's them. It's their sound. They own it like champs and I love them for it.

[ShadrachsGuitar]

Perphery does Pop better than actual Pop lol.

[wolfboof]

Just found out who Periphery is, I don't see how you could possibly dislike this band. They're top notch.

[PetterStoners]

At times I forget it's Periphery in this song and believe it's Faith No More(:

[jackieelizabeth]

Hi, 2023 here, this song is still banging along with Lune, would love an acoustic of both 🥹 but I'm happy if not

[PereiraLabs]

Does anyone else realize the gravity of the situation here? One of the most influential bands of the last decade just wrote a straight panty-dropper. A PANTY-DROPPER. I seriously hope this gets used as a single. Pure genius!
