Are you staying awake for the liftoff, tonight?
You'll never believe the sights tonight
The sights tonight, the sights
Are you staying awake for the liftoff, tonight?
You'll never believe the sights tonight
The sights tonight
Mr. Magpie
You got distracted by the gleam of the diamonds, as you flew by
But their dull glint does not impress
When there's a billion stars in the sky
I sit gripping my pen like a breadknife
As I write, I'm leaving this Earth for the stars tonight
And now I'm running to board the flight
Now I'll boldly go
Into the great unknown
Unless I'm Jacques Cousteau
I give you my mind to be blown
Now I'll boldly go
Into the great unknown
Like Marcus Cicero
Well this life is whole
I'm searching far and wide to find a planet to orbit
Far and wide, I wanna scan and explore it
Far and wide, you're my new planet to orbit
So fire up the rockets
Are you staying awake for the liftoff, tonight?
You'll never believe the sights tonight
The sights tonight, the sights
Are you staying awake for the liftoff, tonight?
You'll never believe the sights tonight
The sights tonight, the sights
Now I'll boldly go
Into the great unknown
Unless I'm Jacques Cousteau
I give you my mind to be blown
Now I'll boldly go
Into the great unknown
Like Marcus Cicero
Well this life is whole
I'm searching far and wide to find a planet to orbit
Far and wide, I wanna scan and explore it
Far and wide, you're my new planet to orbit
So fire up the rockets
It's over now and I'm a little bit petrified
Of what's to come, yeah my head's a bit stir-fried
It's over now and I'm a little unqualified
But fire up the rockets
(I'm searching) far and wide to find a planet to orbit
Far and wide, I wanna scan and explore it
Far and wide, you're my new planet to orbit
So fire up the rockets
The lyrics THE SIGHTS of ENTER SHIKARI is also present in the album The spark (2017)
Enter Shikari è una band inglese di post-hardcore formatasi a St Albans, Hertfordshire nel 2003. Il nome della band deriva da un'imbarcazione appartenente ad un parente di uno dei membri e da un personaggio in una pièce teatrale scritta da Roughton "Rou" Reynolds prima della formazione del gruppo, entrambi chiamati Shikari. Shikari significa anche 'Cacciatore' in marathi, persiano, hindi, nepalese, urdu, punjabi e bengali. La band è caratterizzata da un sound energico ed innovativo che fonde elementi di post-hardcore, elettronica, metalcore e rock progressivo. I loro testi spesso trattano temi sociali, politici e personali, con una forte componente narrativa. Tra i brani più rappresentativi figurano "Gandhi", "Ssswith", "The Last Garrison" e "Constellations". L'album di debutto "Take to the Skies" (2007) ha ottenuto un grande successo di critica e pubblico, consolidando la posizione della band nel panorama musicale alternativo.
