Lyrics
So… we’re Alive
We’ve found Joy
We’re no sad street dogs
We’re dressed up like Peacocks
Feathers On
So… We’re alive
So… much Joy
The proof’s in our pictures
The Lies in our pictures
Feathers On
We carry on we ramble on
We all want the world to see
That we are brave and we are free
and that we don’t know misery
We really are the social ones
We fake our lives for everyone
All we are is what we share
The likes we get is all we care
Nobody will ever know
How sad we are
It’s all for show
How empty we are
When we look inside
Nobody will ever know
How sad we are
It’s all for show!
Background & Recording
The song is about how we tend to interact with social media.
When we arrive at the part in the song where all the lyrics are done, we arrive at an instrumental part that I interpret to be a brutal but necessary cleansing after all the noise in the lyrics before.
