[Verse 1:]
There's a humm[C]ing in the restless summe[Am]r air
And we're slipp[Em]ing off the course that we pre[G]pared
But in all cha[C]os, there is calcu[Am]lation
Dropping glas[Em]ses just to hear them bre[G]ak
You've be[C]en drinking like the world was gonna end (it didn't)[Am]
Took a shi[Em]ner from the fist of your best friend (go f[G]igure)
It's [C]clear that someone's gotta go[Am]
We mea[Em]n it but I promise we're not mean[G]
[Pre-Chorus:]
And the cry [C]goes out (A[Am]h-Ah)[Em][G]
They lose their minds[C] for us (Ah-A[Am]h)[Em][G]
And how it p[C]lays out ([Am]Ah-Ah)[Em][G]
[C]Now we're in the ring
And we're coming for blood
[Chorus:]
[C](Oh- Oh)
You could try and take us (Oh-Oh)[Am]
But we're the gladiators (Oh-Oh)[C]
Everyone a rager (Oh-Oh)[Am]
But secretly they're saviors
[C]Glory and gore go hand in hand[Am]
That's why we're making headlines (Oh-Oh)[C]
You could try and take us (Oh-Oh)[Am]
But victory's contagious
[Verse 2: Same as Verse 1]
Delicate in every way but one (the swordplay)
God knows we like archaic kinds of fun (the old way)
Chance is the only game I play with, baby
We let our battles choose us
[Pre-Chorus:]
[Chorus]
[Bridge: A capella]
No-one round here's good at keeping their eyes closed
The sun's starting to light up when we're walking home
Tired little laughs, gold-lie promises, we'll always win at this
I don't ever think about death
It's alright if you do, it's fine
We gladiate but I guess we're really fighting ourselves
Roughing up our minds so we're ready when the kill time comes
Wide awake in bed, words in my brain,
"Secretly you love this do you even wanna go free?"
Let me in the ring, I'll show you what that big word means
[Chorus]
There's a humm[C]ing in the restless summe[Am]r air
