about

Olympia is the third single from upcoming debut album 'Sunstruck', out May 12th

lyrics

Wear a mask while you sleep
As the sheep take the fast lane

All I wanna do is
Take this body for a ride
But going to the store seems like
Such a hollow way to die

Olympia
Look me in the eye
And promise I will be all right
Insomnia
Caught me by surprise
As I quiver in my bed
Can you let it slide
Just one more time?
Olympia
Take anything you like
As long as I can stay inside

Do you like what you see?
What you give’s what you get

Alien applause would
Never be more out of place
If Jesus is a fraud, God
How much do you want to pay?

Olympia
Look me in the eye
And tell me you’re not terrified
Hysteria
Got into my head
Like the mammals on my screen
If you let it slide
Just one more time
Olympia
I’ll let you decide 
‘Cause I can’t tell what left’s or right

Olympia
Look us in the eye
And try not to break down and cry
Dysphoria
Spreading like the fire
That should’ve killed us all
Will you let it slide
Time after time?
Olympia, well

I don’t really mind, but
Something’s got to give
Something’s got to give
Something’s got to give this time
