Lyrics

I'm the locust telling you something's amiss Then you hear the sound I'm the whisper, I can do it better When I look around I'm the siren sail beamin' from the highest shelf You should really look down There is a road block that I couldn't unlock I really get around Seduction, pure function It's how I learn to speak Steal your power, in my hour I could change most everything I'm not the anthem, I once was an anthem That sang the song of me But now there are no anthems All I can hear is the echo, and the ring I'm the sidewinder watching how to cut you down I don't say a word Slow dream plannin' up my next scheme I lay my moves down I'm the pool boy fillin' you with cool joy In my melody I will lay low, freak you on your way to go Behind the scenes I'm not the anthem, I once was an anthem That sang the song of me But now there are no anthems All I can hear is the echo, and the ring Seduction, pure function It's how I learn to speak Steal your power, in my hour I could change most everything I'm not the anthem, I once was an anthem That sang the song of me But now there are no anthems All I can hear is the echo, and the ring But I want an anthem, I'm singin' an answer An answer and a voice To feel rhythm in silence, a weapon, not violence Power, power, source
