Replacer & P1K - Sky Blues ☁️

Description YT

It's that time again!

Had a blast working with P1K on this, I think we worked really well together and came up with something neither of us would have done working separately. I wanted to do something bluesy and he came up with 'sky blues' in reference to the fact both of our characters are blue and we went from there :P

Thanks again to the P@D crew for putting together a great album as usual and taking me along for the ride ^^

Lyrics:
the night falls hard on sunken dreams
the sorry splendor rots and gleams
patrons bark and angels jeer
the band plays loud and they don't hear

all they love is black and white
don't see the color of the light
lost their spirit and bled their souls
with crimson shovels digging holes

oh you know I don't really wanna live in this strange world
I need somebody beside me to live in this strange land
I need somebody to hide me away from these cruel times
don't tell me to hold out for a miracle
I've been here for so long
somebody just come and take me where the skies are blue
when you just want to fly away it's the sky blues

men and horses line the street
corrupted lives left incomplete
afraid of shadows on the wall
cast by the fingers of the tall

suits of power, white and black
bring velvet ruin on their backs
and through the laughter and the moans
it’s just the thieves that feel at home

oh you know I don't really wanna live in this strange world
I need somebody beside me to live in this strange land
I need somebody to hide me away from these cruel times
don't tell me to hold out for a miracle
I've been here for so long
somebody just come and take me where the skies are blue
when you just want to fly away it's the sky blues

I need to get higher
high above and far away
keep the clouds so dark and grey
below me

I need to get farther
and find a place to start again
to laugh at jokes and play pretend
I wonder where you are

I'm empty
and floating like I'm deep in space
away from every kind of place

come find me

but sadly
the feeling ends, I'm falling now
I'm fading back into the crowd
I've only come so far

the band is tired, their throats are dry
but still they play, I wonder why
they see those shadows on the wall
the cracks run deep as pieces fall

can we divine a better end
and be a better kind of friend
if not I doubt we shall survive
I just want the truth to come alive

and I sure don’t really wanna live in this strange world
I need somebody beside me to live in this strange land
I need somebody to hide me away from these cruel times
don't tell me to hold out for a miracle
I've been here for so long
somebody just come and take me where the skies are blue
when you just want to fly away it's the sky blues
