On The Precipice

from Everything To Everyone by Kobayashi

/

lyrics

We stand on the precipice
Of something truly massive
It happens just like this
When we are blind and passive

History does not play out
On canvas, moving, vast
It creeps and sneaks, no doubt
‘til tomorrow is the past

This is bigger than you
This is bigger than me
This is bigger than both of us can be

Six million
Six million
Don’t tell me not to get excited

No motive, guile or art
But surely you were cheated
Or was midnight in your heart
Were you tricked or were you treated?

This is bigger than you
This is bigger than me
This is bigger than both of us can be

And we turn away
As the truth it stings our faces
And we thought today / And who thought today
We’d never have to face this / We’d ever have to face this

This is bigger than you
This is bigger than me
This is bigger than both of us can be

Kobayashi are a strange band.

We don’t try to sound like any of them. ... more
