lirik lagu enter shikari - system / meltdown (live at wembley)
[part i: system…]
[intro: rou reynolds, crowd]
there was a house in a field on the side of a cliff
and the waves crashing below were just said to be a myth
so they ignored the warnings from the ships in the docks
now the house on the cliff is the wreckage on the rocks
nothing could fix the building’s flawed foundation
the scaffolding and stilts were the laws and legislation
this house was doomed, but they didn’t care
they’d invested in the system that was beyond repair
when i was little
i dressed up as an astronaut and explored outer sp~ce
i dressed up as a superhero and ran about the place
i dressed up as a fireman and rescued those in need
i dressed up as a doctor and cured every disease
it was crystal clear to me back then
that the only problems that i could face
would be the same problems that affect us all
but of course, this sense of common existence
was sucked out of me in an instant
as though from birth i could walk
but i was forced to crawl
so this is such an exciting time (to be alive)
our generation’s got to fight (to survive)
it’s in your hands now, whose future?
(our future! our future!)
[part ii: …meltdown]
[intro: rou reynolds]
it’s your future
this is gonna change everything!
this is gonna change everything!
this is gonna change everything!
system meltdown, meltdown, meltdown
[instrumental drop]
[pre~chorus: rou reynolds, chris batten]
stand up!
how we gonna get through this alive?
get through this alive?
(it’s not too late, it’s not too late)
stand up!
how we gonna get out of this alive?
get out of this alive?
(it’s not too late, it’s not too late)
stand up!
how we gonna get through this alive?
get through this alive?
(it’s not too late, it’s not too late)
stand up!
countries are just lines
drawn in the sand
[chorus: rou reynolds & chris batten, chris batten, rou reynolds]
inside this sick foundation
we’ve had the realisation
inside this sick foundation
we’ve had the revelation
[pre~drop: rou reynolds]
f~ck all borders and f~ck all boundaries
f~ck all flags and f~ck nationalities
you’ve gotta give us a chance
before we reach the…
system meltdown, meltdown, meltdown
[drop: rou reynolds]
stay at the gates
zup, zup, zup
harder then ever
[?]
stand by
system meltdown, meltdown, meltdown
[pre~chorus: rou reynolds, chris batten]
stand up!
how we gonna get through this alive?
get through this alive?
(it’s not too late, it’s not too late)
stand up!
how we gonna get out of this alive?
get out of this alive?
(it’s not too late, it’s not too late)
stand up!
how we gonna get through this alive?
get through this alive?
(it’s not too late, it’s not too late)
stand up!
countries are just lines
drawn in the sand
[chorus: rou reynolds & chris batten, chris batten, rou reynolds]
inside this sick foundation
we’ve had the realisation
inside this sick foundation
we’ve had the revelation
[bridge: rou reynolds]
and we begin to learn to smile again
start to walk that extra mile again
’cause i know that
we are one!
[refrain: rou reynolds & chris batten, rou reynolds]
it’s not too late, it’s not too late
it’s not too late, it’s not too late
fear begins to vanish when we realise
that countries are just lines
drawn in the sand with a stick
