Lyrics

Benevolence Riots (recorded for triple j)

Innocence isn't
A "get out of jail free" card in the eyes of God, did you see me?
Losing my shit on the sidewalk and covered in stranger's eyes

Ready for anything, ready or not
It's a silence
That whittles away my pride and you're asking me why do I feel it
Like it's a guy with a cigarette that tells you to lie face down

Ready for anything, ready or not
How long I've waited for your lightning sound

And you call me, letting me waste your time
Still you're asking me why do I feel it
Like it's a guy with a cigarette that tells you to lie face down

Ready for anything, ready or not
How long I've waited for your lightning sound

Talking 'bout all the fault
Saves my life like you don't know
In my blue collared coat
We're not rich but we're not broke
In my blue collared coat
We're not rich but we're not broke

Ready for anything, ready or not
How long I've waited for your lightning

Ready for anything, ready or not
How long I've waited for your lightning
Ready for anything, ready or not
How long I've waited for your lightning
Ready for anything, ready or not
How long I've waited for your lightning
Ready for anything, ready or not
How long I've waited for your lightning sound
