Lirik Lagu 'Slipping Through (No Kings)' dari The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Hadirkan Kritik Sosial

Band alternative-rock peraih multi-platinum, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus (RJA), baru saja merilis single teranyar mereka yang berjudul "Slipping Through (No Kings)", lengkap dengan video musik yang menyertainya.
Lewat irama gitar yang intens dan lirik yang tajam, lagu ini menghadirkan kritik sosial yang lantang terhadap kondisi yang tengah terjadi di Amerika Serikat. Single ini juga menjadi pembuka menuju perilisan album studio terbaru mereka yang rencananya akan diumumkan dalam beberapa bulan ke depan.
“Lagu ini menggambarkan bagaimana segala hal yang kami perjuangkan perlahan mulai hilang begitu saja,” ungkap Ronnie Winter, vokalis sekaligus pendiri RJA.
Berikut lirik lagunya:
I want to sit you down for a talk
To see if you remember the scars
When you were hurt and falling apart
The hand that feeds you bites you
I say this honestly with love
I miss the old you
Is this the end? Or is tomorrow
Slipping through our hands
Will we pretend we know what follows
Slipping through our hands
I said it before, I'll say it again
If we don't change something then we wind up dead
Is this the end? Or is tomorrow
Slipping through our hands
Light is the only cure for the dark
This time we can't get back to the start
I won't let you forget who you are
The hand that feeds you bites you
I say this honestly with love
I miss the old you
Is this the end? Or is tomorrow
Slipping through our hands
Will we pretend we know what follows
Slipping through our hands
I said it before, I'll say it again
If we don't change something then we wind up dead
Is this the end? Or is tomorrow
Slipping through our hands
Is this the end? Or is tomorrow
Slipping through our hands
Will we pretend we know what follows
Slipping through our hands
I said it before, I'll say it again
If we don't change something then we wind up dead
Is this the end? Or is tomorrow
Slipping through our hands. (Far)
