Redshift Lyrics by Enter Shikari

Redshift - Single

2016

[Intro]
We drift apart, we drift apart
We drift apart, we drift apart

[Verse 1]
If there's one reason to smile
It's when you look up out at night
You're fortunate enough
To drink in a vista

A hundred billion flares
Display a glowing history
Splayed out across a canvas
The night sky

[Pre-Chorus]
But for a moment, just contemplate
When looking up, you only saw a blank slate
And for a moment, just contemplate
It appears that Heaven's been abandoned

[Chorus]
We accelerate
Through the estate of outer space
We accelerate
We separate, we fragment

We accelerate
Through the estate of outer space
We accelerate
It appears that Heaven's been abandoned

[Verse 2]
I climbed down from the wall
Where I sit and search for a source sublime
Other than our dear sun
The lone star, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
But for a moment, just contemplate
When looking up, you only saw a blank slate
And for a moment, just contemplate
It appears that Heaven's been abandoned

Just contemplate
What if the heavens were abandoned?

[Chorus]
We accelerate
Through the estate of outer space
We accelerate
We separate, we fragment

We accelerate
Through the extent of outer space
We accelerate
It appears that Heaven's been abandoned

[Interlude]
Your skin and bones
Heart and mind
Are made from the remnants of stars
That died

And can you feel it inside?
Can you feel it inside?
Can you feel it inside?

[Bridge]
A supergiant erupts into a supernova
The ultimate sacrifice
And we are the descendants

A supergiant erupts into a supernova
The ultimate sacrifice
And we are the descendants

[Outro]
We drift apart, we drift apart
We drift apart, we drift apart
