Roller

[VERSE]

Roller rolls

Your hands high

Pulling hair

Your defences down

Breathing

Tasting iron

Now there’s laces on the ground

Torn out shreds being thrown around

Looking up at the holes that they made in those new blue skies

Running over  fields

Now they’re on all sides

Doubled up in a carnival

Streamers made out of their ties

Howling calls to make you shy

Aiming stones in a fire fight

Looking up and you hope

For some wave to come from on high

[Chorus]

Back to paint you redder

Back to paint you redder

Back to paint you redder

Talk on top of talk and rumours building into breakers

Back to paint you redder

Back to paint you redder

Back to paint you redder

Forced to tower over, power, power a river

[VERSE]

Wave on alma mater

Come down on backs

Flash flood the halls

Blue skies won’t break all around you

They’ll stretch all ways

Those days saying, “We know where you are”

And a river’s on

Pouring out

Pouring out

Carrying your tyrants off

Laying waste to their lost and founds

As red as your knees are

Grazes laddered up your arms

You cast a wave to return and carry your storms out

[Chorus]

Back to paint you redder

Back to paint you redder

Back to paint you redder

Talk on top of talk and rumours building into breakers

Back to paint you redder

Back to paint you redder

Back to paint you redder

Forced to tower over, power, power a river

[VERSE]

Wave on alma mater

Come down on backs

Flash flood the halls

Blue skies won’t break all around you

They’ll stretch all ways

Those days saying, “We know where you are”

Wave on alma mater

Come down on backs

Flash flood the halls

Blue skies won’t break all around you

They’ll stretch all ways

Those days saying, “We know where you are”

(Call a roller, call a roll) on the way you were

(Call a roller, call a roller) a wave on her

(Call a roller, call a roll) on the way you were

(Call a roller, call a roller) a wave on her

(Call a roller, call a roll) on the way you were

(Call a roller, call a roller) a wave on her
