Silent Alarm Lyrics by Boxes

Stickers

2011

[Verse 1]
Bite my tongue, it's going for everyone
There's no escaping what you've done
A silent alarm, a punch in the chest
A shot in the arm, a bulletproof vest
A thorn in my back
Your head on my face
Salt in my mouth

[Chorus]
We could be birds in flight
We could be dynamite
We have been chasin' after somethin' we can't find
We could be aeroplanes
Takin' us far away
We should be chasin' after somethin' we can't hide

[Verse 2]
To cut my hands using the nicest of words
No radar to warn a massive fail
A silent alarm, a punch in the chest
Salt in my mouth

[Chorus]
We could be birds in flight
We could be dynamite
We have been chasin' after somethin' we can't find
We could be aeroplanes
Takin' us far away
We should be chasin' after somethin' we can't hide

[Bridge]
Voice you can't keep quiet
It's the flare across your face
You're the bones that keep me standin'
Pretendin'

[Chorus]
We could be birds in flight
We could be dynamite
We have been chasin' after somethin' we can't find
We could be aeroplanes
Takin' us far away
We should be chasin' after somethin' we can't hide
