[Verse 1]
You can't make me believe what I don't
I can breathe through the pen in my throat
I don't fear the pit, I will float

[Pre-Chorus]
Oooh
Don't wanna say the quiet part out loud
But we're not profound, we're just meat
Oooh
Think you've been talking to the modern world
But, my friend, I heard your scream

[Chorus]
Oh, canary, canary, canary
Under the ground
Canary, canary, canary
Under the ground
(Under the ground)

[Verse 2]
I don't think it's a trick of the light (Heed my warning)
No more dreaming in black and white (Heed my warning)
All I want is to brutalise (Heed my warning)

[Pre-Chorus]
Oooh
I hear the drumming of the Hell-Kite priest
On my bones they feast, but that's fine
Oooh
I've got these rifles for my arms and legs
And I've laid in bed enough time
