lyrics



(VERSE)
plz don’t mind me, i’m nobody
i’m getting drunk off cheap caffeine, in quarantine
i haven’t changed my shirt in days, or maybe weeks
i’m such a mess sometimes 
i’m such a mess sometimes

but u came to see, me every week
just to make sure i didnt lose, my sanity
i always took that shit for granted, 
now i see
i’m such a dick sometimes
i’m such a dick sometimes

(PREHOOK)
but i dont have the balls
to say what i want
cause i’m scared of everything
& girls just wanna have "FUN."
but the band broke up in ’15
all i ask for is one,
thing that i know u cannot give me
calm down 
ur getting real loud
don’t frown
cause ur bringing me down

(HOOK)
we used to laugh like all the time, yeah
but now we’re sad like all of the time, yeah
i laugh about it all the time, yeah
all the time, yeah
all, all, the time, yeah

(VERSE 2)
u spilt ur tea
all over me
we hadn’t laughed that hard in maybe
20 weeks
i miss the days when we could talk, without crying
we’re such a mess sometimes
we’re such a mess sometimes

got hard to breathe
once u left me
i said some things that i regret
& i’m sorry
this fucking mouth of mine with be
the death of me
i’m such a dick sometimes
i’m such a dick sometimes

(PREHOOK 2)
but i dont have the balls
to say what i want
cause i’m scared of everything
& girls just wanna have “FUN.”
but the band broke up in ’15
all i ask for is one,
thing that i know u cannot give me
calm down 
ur getting real loud
don’t frown
cause ur bringing me down

(HOOK 2)
we used to laugh like all the time, yeah
but now we’re sad like all of the time, yeah
i laugh about it all the time, yeah
all the time, yeah
all, all, the time, yeah

we used to laugh like all the time, yeah
but now we’re sad like all of the time, yeah
i laugh about it all the time, yeah
all the time, yeah
all, all, the time, yeah

Silverback Democracy is a sharp, sardonic commentary on how modern society rewards arrogance over integrity.

It calls out the way loud egos rise while empathy gets sidelined not because the system’s broken, but because it’s designed that way. 

The lyrics walk the listener through that brutal logic: we cheer the clowns, worship confidence, and label noise as truth.

It’s not an angry protest it’s exasperation sung with a smirk.

The narrator isn’t screaming for change, they’re holding up a mirror and saying, “Look. This is us. This is how we work.”


[Verse 1]
The system’s fine it’s meant to be,
Loudmouths win, not empathy.
Egos climb, the kind step down,
The wise ones run from the crown.

[Chorus]
Silverback democracy,
Confidence beats honesty.
We follow noise, not clarity,
It’s working, perfectly.

[Verse 2]
The calm stay quiet, the cruel stay loud,
The stage is set, we love a crowd.
We don’t want truth, we want a show,
We built this world, we let it grow.

[Verse 3]
You clap for clowns, you call them kings,
You cheer the loudest, emptiest things.
They shout, you bow, you think it’s true
It’s madness, through and through.

[Bridge]
Power burns, the sane step back,
Good hearts don’t survive the pack.

[Final Chorus]
Silverback democracy,
It’s not broke it’s policy.
We follow noise, not clarity,
It’s working, perfectly.

[Outro ]
It’s working, perfectly...
Yeah, perfectly.

LYRICS:
It's been a while, been a while since I have
seen your face round here
don't know what to say cuz every day

You're in my head, in my head I always 
say it perfectly
do you want to be with me

So take a walk, take a walk with me and
I'll drop all the signs
If you can read I'm sure you'll see it but

Oh, the time, oh I know its 5 AM 
but please don't go
oh please don't go

Cuz Girl, frankly I
wanna see you again but I
know you're leavin'

I wanna kiss you goodbye
but all I can say instead
is a friendly till then

I'll be back, I'll be back you said and
dropped the perfect line
come see me out by the sea

and so I wept, Oh I cried inside all day
while I was dying on the job
I couldn't wait to make the call
Oh I wanna see your face again
I'm sorry I'm just excited but 

Oh, shit
I've got no answer
I hope I didn't blow too soon
Maybe I should finally quit
and just get passed her
but I don't want to admit
that this is it

Cuz Girl, frankly I
wanna see you again but I
know you're leavin'

I wanna kiss you goodbye
but all I can say instead
is a friendly till then

Girl, Frankly

EVENTIDE: An extended play by The Waterfalls

The Waterfalls’ debut EP already shows a development and maturing in the bands sound; with staple indie rock tunes such as ‘Petrol Boys’ and the bold ‘Wholesome’ coupled with bedroom pop and chill-rock inspired songs ‘Mornings’ and ‘A waste of time’. The EP closes with ‘Sunkissed’, with a hip-hop inspired drum and bass line which develops into a loud and driving rock song. 
Sunkissed ends the EP with the combination of the two sounds the band aim to combine on Eventide.
