Lyrics
Strolling the streets in this ghost of a town
My future looking bleak
My head filled with sound
As I lost signal on the train underground
My thoughts came flooding in
I started to drown
Then you caught me by surprise
Changed my destination
Kaleidoscopic eyes
Forming constellations
I had no reason to breathe
Until you knocked the wind out of me
I had no light I could see
Until your radiance blinded me
I was spinning around and around
In an ocean of grief
Your ladder came down to the sea
I hope the pain never ends
Love is so bittersweet
Life was easier when I only cared about me
Missing the nights when my friends were around
We start going unsteady
Cruel merry go round
Lit my own fuse
I could not blow it out
I was strapped to a rocket
Aimed right at the ground
Then you caught me by surprise
Changed my destination
Kaleidoscopic eyes
Forming constellations
I had no reason to breathe
Until you knocked the wind out of me
I had no light I could see
Until your radiance blinded me
I was spinning around and around
In an ocean of grief
Your ladder came down to the sea
I hope the pain never ends
Love is so bittersweet
Life was easier when I only cared about me
No reason to breathe
No light I could see
No reason to breathe
No light I could see
No reason to breathe
I had no light I could see
I had no reason to breathe
Until you knocked the wind out of me
I had no light I could see
Until your radiance blinded me
I was spinning around and around
In an ocean of grief
Your ladder came down to the sea
I hope the pain never ends
Love is so bittersweet
Life was easier when I only cared about me

POV: You're the protagonist of a movie set in the 80's and you're rolling down the suburbs on your bike.

[@kenseville9469]

I can't get over what a great song this is. "I had no reason to breathe, until you knocked the wind out of me". What a lyric!

[@Elysium-Productions]

It's hard for me to type a response because my fingers are still bouncing to the song! Thank you Bad Suns!

[@333puggles333]

Wow! I'm loving the variety in this new album. I dig this classic Bad Suns sound mixed with the synth sounds.

[@brendanroe8604]

Bad sun's sound.. see y'all you have something special!

[@CJFreeza]

My thoughts exactly

[@-LeMar-]

I heard this song in an airport once and memorized a random part of the song so when I got home I could searched it up

One of the most underrated bands of the last decade, timeless music.

[@highlightsvideopro]

Best album of 2022 so far! Why are these guys so under rated? They are great.

[@smorgington]

I wish they got like twenty one pilots big already. I’m praying they do honestly lol.

[@highlightsvideopro]

@@smorgington They should be. I don't know who they are touring with but maybe the bigger bands feel threatened to put them on the lineup card.

[@june3681]

This song has crack in it

[@brent212cburg]

Good to see bad suns is still putting out top notch music

[@tennywho]

Was so happy at 4 am when I saw thissss

[@narjassentouhi7123]

I listen to their music when I'm outside walking or working out it's so good. I'm always vibing and dancing to them. It's always playing in my car wherever I go.

[@smorgington]

Same same same. My favorite to listen to when driving is Transpose but this has become a runner up.

[@wxlurker]

This is so catchy, great track.

[@kristinbaker7721]
