Grace
The Explosion Lyrics

We all lie in a pile as the dead drives
We all experience a sense of togetherness as we are driven through life by our inevitable fate

we all lie in a pile singing songs in straight lines
We all follow the same societal norms and expectations, expressing ourselves in a conformist, homogenous way

we all like in a pile as the dead driver drives
We are all powerless to escape the direction in which our lives are heading, and our collective fate is intertwined as a result

we all lie in a pile singing songs all the while
Even in the face of our shared struggles and powerlessness, we find solace and unity in the act of singing together

i could pass away pass away and not much would be left ashes ashes on the ground
The artist feels a sense of insignificance and transience in the grand scheme of things, and wonders if their death would have any lasting impact

i guess i never left the ground
Despite the passage of time and their experiences in life, the singer feels stuck and unable to progress, as if they are still in the same place they began

murder murder on the walls late night curtain calls are heard by skeletons in a closets
Dark secrets and regrets haunt us all, and our private struggles are often hidden from others and only heard by ourselves

man they'll reach out and grab your hands 'cause you've got grace on a bad day
Others may sense the artist's inner strength and positivity, even in hard times, and reach out to them for comfort and support

you've got grace throw everybody'd face under the falling eyes
The artist's strength and resilience in tough situations inspires those around them, even as they struggle themselves

we hold onto this moment all our singing songs all the while
The artist cherishes the moments of unity and togetherness with others, particularly through the act of singing

this illusive walking death holding hands with skeletons
The singer feels as if they are living a life that is both fleeting and haunted by past mistakes, with nobody but their own regrets for company

learners, teachers will provide their own sweet style of elegant lies
Society and its power structures often dictate what is considered 'truth', but these beliefs may not necessarily be honest or accurate

but i won't stop trying, no i won't stop trying
Despite all the challenges and difficulties in life, the singer is determined to keep moving forward and striving towards personal growth

'cause you've got grace on a bad day
The singer recognizes their own inner strength and resilience, even in tough times

throw everybody's face under the falling eyes
Others may look to the singer for inspiration and guidance, as they navigate their own struggles and challenges
