Lyrics:

Head up high in the physical world
Boy is brave so much to learn
The needle’s eye, a needle burnt 
Such delicate wings, rarely heard

Pack your things so far to fly
Way up there towards the light
The look on your face has a story to tell 
Tell us the truth or just stay in hell

I’m on leave
Into the sun
So easily done
So hard to ignore 
Freshen the squeeze 
In I breathe
Staying alive
This ship goes on and on and on and on in flight 
So far and wide
See how it leaves a trail of colour in the sky

Look, look not a sound
Ancient love or heresy
When I am you and you are me
And we are here and we are proud

Look up here to the spirit world
Are you ready to die, ready to twirl
The look on your face has a story to tell
Tell us the truth or just stay in hell

I want you to know 
Oh divine
I’m on my way home 
To this temple of mine 
I’ve come to return 
No longer
A hero
This ship goes on and on and on and on in flight 
So far and wide
See how it leaves a trail of colour in the sky

Rainbow bridge
Come on man get these colours done Rainbow bridge
Rainbow bridge
Help me to finish the run
The euphoria of hard earned completion 
The euphoria of hard earned completion

Lyrics

Safe and sound in the silence of a red hot fire
White feathers falling through the air
Faces demonic backing away from it
With movements we control with our body

Blessed with a strong voice to create or destroy
Pure intent to carry on
From the dark came a heavy glow
Staring straight down to my soul
Could I ever have refused something so helpful

It's all a lie it's all a wicked game cos you
Never know when you'll be back again, alive
Let me be let me stay alive
Let me lose let me love just stay by my side

In the land of the living just live a little

Me I'm hooked on the high life
In bed with the sun rise
It keeps me here in paradise

I don't really wanna be those things
Here in the land of the living
Tell me tell me tell me I'll never give in

It's all a lie it's all a wicked game cos you
Never know when you'll be back again, alive
Let me be let me stay alive
Let me lose let me love just stay by my side

In the land of the living just live a little

Land Of The Living

Bridging the gaps between psychedelic, punk, and jazz sensibilities, DAAY have set themselves apart in London's live music scene through cultivating their unique blend of groove and playful introspection. Following a string of releases - with play on BBC Radio 6 Music - and the 'Cosmic Gossip' EP in 2023, DAAY are working on their most ambitious project yet.
