The music they are currently prepping for their debut album came about while writing between London, the West Midlands, New York, and Los Angeles. They found their musical path by binding the styles of each unique location where they wrote, adding the roots of British rock, the desert sounds of California, the rawkus leads of New York City, the smokey ambience of London, and then spiced up the mixture by looking to the gospel roots of the blues.

PILLS
The Nova Hawks Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I found another way to
Pull me under
I found another way to
drown my soul
I found another way to
Keel me over
Cos i'm the only one thats in control.
Oh, and I cant find another way
Take these pills
They'll make you feel better
We're gonna find out
Who i really am
Take my name
Drag it through the desert
Whats it gonna matter if its
Me youre gonna hurt
I found another way to
Drag me over
I found another way to
Take the blame
I found another way to
Pull you under
Keep your mouth shut girl,
Don't dirty your name
Oh, its a chemical nation,
They fill me up til' I cant breathe
Oooh, its always the way
They fill me up with all these chemicals.
Take these pills
They'll make you feel better
We're gonna find out
Who i really am
Take my name
Drag it through the desert
Whats it gonna matter if its
Me youre gonna hurt
Take these pills,




Its a chemical nation.
Chorus
