Somebody's Saying

Verse 1 Heard it spun around the alley Blown out rumours in the smoke Everyone’s got their own angle Every shout feels half a joke Flash your grin in every doorway Say you’re sorted, say you’re fine But your ghost still buzzes on the circuit Like you’re front page every time Pre-Chorus They talk loud, but they don’t mean it They whisper like it’s truth Every claim’s another headline In this city’s youth Chorus Somebody’s saying you’re untouchable Somebody’s saying you’re wrecked Everybody’s got a version Of the rumours that you’ve decked Every club’s a different story Every grin’s a rehearsed verse Tell me which one’s the real you Before I quit this curse Verse 2 Did you switch your crew for glory? Did you ditch them on the floor? Did you laugh at every promise Like it mattered anymore? Everyone sees something different Every dodgy platform tweet Spill a truth, bend the angle Change the game beneath our feet Pre-Chorus They talk loud, but they don’t mean it Every phrase’s a rolling buzz Here we are in neon tunnels Chasing what was once the buzz Chorus Somebody’s saying you’re untouchable Somebody’s saying you’re wrecked Everybody’s got a version Of the rumours that you’ve decked Every club’s a different story Every grin’s a rehearsed verse Tell me which one’s the real you Before I quit this curse Bridge If opinions had a heartbeat They’d thrum into the night Every hint and half-true whisper Pressing heavy on the light Don’t tell me where you’re headed Don’t tell me all your plans I’ll hear it from someone else Before I shake your hands Final Chorus Somebody’s calling you elusive Somebody’s calling you done Everyone’s got an angle now When the fuckery’s more fun Don’t care what the rumour’s saying Don’t care who’s right, who’s cursed I just watch it change its colours Cos I heard it first
