about
Flowers and Lies is the first song the band released onto online streaming platforms once finished recording leading to much interest being generated in the direction of this incarnation of KMC3. It also thematically drives the concept behind the rest of the album with it's sharp eyed social commentary.
The song was mastered at Studio 301 in Sydney, Australia by renowned engineer, Leon Zervos who has worked with such artists as The Cult, Dreamtheatre and Muse.
The band also filmed a full length music video for the track which can be found on YouTube.
lyrics
It’s been around since before your mommas due
Now the sound is more than a golden view
It’s in your church and where you pray
It’s all through the day.
Watching how, all the actors on tv
Play it out, like it’s real just for me
They say when to rock and when to roll
It’s all in the show
It’s all that we need; it’s all in the motion, the ocean.
I know what you want; I see it in your eyes
I know what it is
Flowers and Lies
See it now, it’s got a way to make you be
Believe in how and that’s the way it’s gonna be
The Law is in words you can’t spell
They can send you to Hell.
So understand what it is and what they say
It’s in demand; it’s from the man so it’s ok
You’ll do what your told to do
It’s not up to you
It’s all that we know, you see that it’s over. so over.
It ain’t news to me, it’s written in the sky.
So you want to believe,
Flowers and Lies.
ABC, NBC, SBS, CNN, BBC don’t you see
They want you to believe.
Watching how, all the actors on the street
They play it out, to be just like Steve McQueen
They say when to lock, when to load,
Pretty maids in a row.
It’s all that we need; it’s all in the motion, the ocean.
I know what you want; I see it in your eyes
I know what it is, you see that it’s over. so over.
It ain’t news to me, it’s written in the sky.
So don’t you believe,
Flowers and Lies.
