Glory and Gore lyrics

There's a humming in the restless summer air

And we're slipping off the course that we prepared

But in all chaos, there is calculation

Dropping glasses just to hear them break

You've been drinking like the world was gonna end (it didn't)

Took a shiner from the fist of your best friend (go figure)

It's clear that someone's gotta go

We mean it but I promise we're not mean

And the cry goes out

They lose their minds for us

And how it plays out

Now we're in the ring

And we're coming for blood

You could try and take us

But we're the gladiators

Everyone a rager

But secretly they're saviors

Glory and gore go hand in hand

That's why we're making headlines

You could try and take us

But victory's contagious

Delicate in every way but one (the swordplay)

God knows we like archaic kinds of fun (the old way)

Chance is the only game I play with, baby

We let our battles choose us

No-one round here's good at keeping their eyes closed

The sun's starting to light up when we're walking home

Tired little laughs, gold-lie promises, we'll always win at this

I don't ever think about death

It's alright if you do, it's fine

We gladiate but I guess we're really fighting ourselves

Roughing up our minds so we're ready when the kill time comes

Wide awake in bed, words in my brain,

“Secretly you love this do you even wanna go free?”

Let me in the ring, I'll show you what that big word means
