Receiver

Music and lyrics by Steve Leonard

It started as communication
The struggle made of sound
But when they found the rhythm
They began dancing all around

Then they made up the words
Sang with the birds
Started making up new endings
to the song that they heard

We’ve been writing them down
Climbing the stairs
The songs are just like memories
That everybody shares

For centuries we’ve all agreed
Music is a thing that we all need
You can’t imagine what we can conceive
There’s a message in the noise you must receive

Feel it in your bones
Like The Rolling Stones
Our limbs guitars, hearts are drums
and our brains, microphones

And the emotions we’re feeling
are parts of one song
We dance to it together
and you can’t help but sing along

For centuries we’ve all agreed
Music is a thing that we all need
Shining light upon how we’ve been deceived
There’s a message in the noise you must receive
There’s a message in the noise you must receive
