This week’s song: Sounds We Can’t Hear by Protomartyr

LYRICS

Another 81 dead since dawn
Spiders crawling ‘cross the ceiling
Next door, there’re voices moaning
Can’t tell if they’re coming or going

Thumb press strike over speaker
Two bombshells hit the villa
A vertical of bone-thin children
Celebrity smiling, drops the weight

It’s just the buzzing in your ear
You’ve got to earn a living
It’s what’s waiting over there
Just got to keep on living

The sounds we cannot hear
The sounds we cannot hear

The scroll deforms the day
Poet screamed, “Goodbye everybody!”
Leaping from the liner Orizaba
As it traversed the Caribbean Sea
A new vulgar company is targeting me

It’s the weight you cannot bear
You’ve got to earn a living
It’s the guilt you cannot feel
Just got to keep on living

The sounds we cannot hear
The sounds we cannot hear
The sounds we cannot hear
The sounds we cannot hear
The sounds we cannot hear
The sounds we cannot hear
