about

This is our second official release. From a musical standpoint, we channeled our Alice in Chains inspirations drawing mostly from 'We Die Young' and 'Dam That River' vibes as Jerry Cantrell's guitar work was always a huge inspiration.

From a lyrical standpoint, the song is about us people getting more and more caught up in managing our fake online personas rather than establishing authentic real-life relationships

lyrics

Am I too damn advantageous?
Or lack a cent of self-denial?
Am I done with the real world inside, yeah?

Your bail, my fail
Not aware of the time
Your bail, my fail
Unaware of the lies

Run away
(Sane!)
Cash your name
(Fame!)
Or just throw the pearls before the blind
Run away
(Sane!)
Cash your name
(Fame!)
I'm not sick unless you say I'm right

Your every word I find
I've never realized
Gave me a reason to cry, yeah

So run away and cash your name
and fade away your sympathies
I'll see you in another fight
I'm gonna skin that away

Run away
(Sane!)
Cash your name
(Fame!)
Or just throw the pearls before the blind
Run away
(Sane!)
Cash your name
(Fame!)
I won't save your time
I won't sing your lies
Run away
(Sane!)
Cash your name
(Fame!)
Or just throw the pearls before the blind
Run away

I won't sing your lies
You never fail
