About This Track

'Prism' by Bully is an alternative song from the album 'SUGAREGG', released in 2020. The lyrics describe a sleep-addled, tear-soaked waking, with the day’s light turning up as a kind of cruel brightness, as the singer faces fear and a haunting presence, “the sun hits a prism”. It is a messy interior scene, arranged around wakefulness that feels helpless, where quiet takes control and emotion curdles into disarray.

"Prism" is a track by Bully, from the album SUGAREGG, released 20th August 2020. The track is 5:02 long. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 7 articles about Bully.

Lyrics

Prism

I can't defeat sleep in the middle of the day
All shook up, I wake in sudden disarray
Just a mess tied in sheets and covered in tears
Controlled by the quiet, face to face with my fears
Ooh, the sun hits a prism
Ooh, your ghost in my kitchen
Ooh, the sun hits a prism
Ooh, your ghost in my
Your ghost in my
Can't feel your pain like before now it's
Just vaguely a shadow waiting outside the door but it
Just keeps coming up, I was close, almost in the clear
Was holding on for what? Just keeps coming up
Just keeps coming

There is nothing I can do but relax and move on
Unsettled deep breaths, trying to reel in the calm
You should take it, you should take it, you should take it, okay
And a mere glass of water I swallow and it fades
Ooh, the sun hits a prism
Ooh, your ghost in my kitchen
Ooh, the sun hits a prism
Ooh, your ghost in my
Your ghost in my
Can't feel your pain like before now it's
Just vaguely a shadow waiting outside the door but it
Just keeps coming up, I was close, almost in the clear
Was holding on for what? Just keeps coming up
Just keeps coming
Can't feel your pain like before now it's
Just vaguely a shadow waiting outside the door but it
Just keeps coming up, I was close, almost in the clear
Was holding on for what?
Just keeps coming up
Just keeps coming
Just keeps coming
Just keeps coming
