Lyrics A Place Above - Jehnny Beth, Cillian Murphy

A Place Above

See, the rivers of blood
The endless cruelties
The manipulations and the fears
See the delusions of those and succeed
Their imagined self importance
See the most powerful man raise his hand to tell us a lie
Oh no, not another lie
Wars come and money flows
Everybody loses, including me, including you
And I’m left with hatred and violence
Tell me who am I now?
I’m just like you
I’m just like you now
There’s a place above where I like to go in my head
It’s a place where I see others in their little ways
Where I know how to see
