FAWM: "Insignia"

Insignia

Liner Notes

I try every now and then to write a "nonsense lyrics" song. And not necessarily nonsense, but less straightforward than normal. I noticed my computer mouse says INSIGNIA on it and I thought "that's a cool word." So I made it a song. Boom.

Lyrics

You, put on a show So important everybody knows And I, let out a sigh Once again it’s a missing alibi

CH: All you wanted was just everything Not enough applause whenever you sing Meaningless the lyric, la da da da da Your insignia

They, keep it away So tomorrow everybody’ll say We, are crossing a sea Just to meet your perfect majesty

Chorus Solo

Bridge: If it doesn’t get quite to you, sign it on the line Every vice is turning virtue, happens all the time If a dream is out of reach you’ll cry another day, away

Chorus Your insignia

I mean, maybe it doesn't mean anything super tangible, but I do think these kind of songs hit because they're vague enough for the listener to apply to all sorts of situations. This is no exception! Great vocals! I really liked the electric solo too, perfect amount of distortion.
