We Will Become Silhouettes Songtext
I've got a cupboard with cans of food

Filtered water, and pictures of you

And I'm not coming out until this is all over

And I'm looking through the glass

Where the light bends at the cracks
And I'm screaming at the top of my lungs

Pretending the echoes belong to someone

Someone I used to know



And we become silhouettes

When our bodies finally go



I wanted to walk though the empty streets

And feel something constant under my feet

But all the news reports recommended that I stay indoors
Because the air outside will make

Our cells divide at an alarming rate

Until our shells simply cannot hold

All our insides in, and that's when we'll explode

(And it won't be a pretty sight)



And we'll become silhouettes

When our bodies finally go
