Powerlines Lyrics by Pyramid Scheme

IOU

2023

[Verse 1]
Quiet eyes
Can’t act surprised
When you remind us why
We can’t go on
I can never seem to be
More than synecdoche
Why agree to disagree
Just so we get along
And maybe we
Had something
You need
But we’ve settled on
Letting ourselves
Slip between
The sheets
Left alone
Where’d they go go go-o
[Chorus]
And nothing’s certain
Still we’re searching
And nothing’s working
Try to keep still and
Lead with our chest
I need a reason
To believe in
Until thеy leave and
It’s up to us to fill
The spacеs they left
It’s up to us to fill
The spaces they left
[Verse]
Your powerlines
Crisscross my mind
And twist in the knife
‘Til we light it up
You’re not the boss of me
Exhibit atrocity
You never thought to stop and see
Now you’ve let it out
Spilling down and
Flowing through
The streets
Get me out of here
Filling crowns and
Growing through
Our seams
Left alone
Where’d they go go go-o
[Chorus]
And nothing’s certain
Still we’re searching
And nothing’s working
Try to keep still and
Lead with our chest
I need a reason
To believe in
Until they leave and
It’s up to us to fill
The spaces they left
[Bridge]
Ashes raining on the river
And I’m asking if they plan to live forever
Tragic stains left unforgiven
We’re static until we lift together
[Chorus]
And nothing’s certain
Still we’re searching
And nothing’s working
Try to keep still and
Lead with our chest
I need a reason
To believe in
Until they leave and
It’s up to us to fill
The spaces they left
It’s up to us fill
The spaces they left
[Outro]
There’s ashes
Raining on the river
And I’m asking
If they plan to live forever
