lyrics

I peak my head above the clouds
But it might be fog
I’m standing high above the crowd
I’m not that tall (I'm not that tall)
On your mark get set are you ready

My bare feet touch the open sea
And it’s not that cold (it's not that cold)
My arms stretched out like a tree
Watch the shade unfold (the shade unfold)

On your mark get set are you ready
On your mark get set are you ready

Here we go now
I got the know-how
Try to show ‘em all I'm ready for the breakdown
Here we go now
I got the know-how
Try to show ‘em all I'm ready for the breakdown

(Can’t always say) what you wanna say
(Can’t always sing) what you wanna sing
(Can’t always do) what are you gonna do
(Can’t always sing) what you wanna sing
(Can’t always do) whatcha gonna do
You be me and I’ll be you

I crane my neck to the sky
But I don’t have wings
She wants my heart black and blue
Filled with pretty things (with pretty things)
On your mark get set are you ready

They push my back against the wall
Never to be free (never to be free)
They count my words and syllables
In conspiracy (two three four)

On your mark get set are you ready
On your mark get set are you ready

Here we go now
I got the know-how
Try to show ‘em all I'm ready for the breakdown
Here we go now
I got the know-how
Try to show ‘em all I'm ready for the breakdown

(Can’t always say) what you wanna say
(Can’t always sing) what you wanna sing
(Can’t always do) what are you gonna do
(Can’t always sing) what you wanna sing
(Can’t always do) whatcha gonna do
You be me and
I’ll be you
No I’ll be you and
You'll be me
No I’ll be me and
You be you
Yeah
Woo-hooo

about

Volleys are Dustin Nulf and Takis Nahatis. The need for music creation is the foundation of the friendship and the project. In early 2020, when the world shuttered inside, we began sending each other electronic communications containing rhythms and sounds over the interweb. The result is this selection of songs for your listening pleasure. ... more
