About this creation
The static comes in slow, you can feel it grow
Our stream of conscience flows, under the streets below
The river's made of sound, still running underground
Runs like a silent flood, we run as thick as blood
Can you hear it rise? Up from the ground
Can't drown it out. Can you hear it now?
This is
The Sound! Of a heartbeat
This is
The Sound! From the discontented mouths, of a haunted nation
We are the voice of breaking down! Can you hear me?
This is
The Sound!
Of a desperation bound, by our own collisions
We are the voice of breaking down
The static comes alive, beneath the broken sky
John Perkins said it right, love is the final fight
Let it rise above, rise above
There is no song, louder than love
And this is
The Sound!
Of a heartbeat
This is
The Sound!
From the discontented mouths, of a haunted nation
We are the voice of breaking down! Can you hear me?
This is
The Sound!
Of a desperation bound, by our own collisions
We are the voice of breaking down…
Down!
Let it rise above, up from the ground
Can't drown it out. Can you hear it now?
This is
The Sound! Of a heartbeat
This is
The Sound! From the discontented mouths, of a haunted nation
We are the voice of breaking down!
Can you hear me?
This is
The Sound!
Of desperation bound, by a falling condition!
We are the voice of breaking down!
This is The Sound!
This is The Sound!
- The Sound (John M. Perkins Blues), Switchfoot

Great theme, with a smooth build to boot. |

I like the road that you made. I think that technique looks so much nicer than the baseplates. Good job! |

While this model may not have the flashy technique of "lift up thine eyes", the theme is no less powerful. Great, thought provoking build. |

Great! I think that the fire hydrant is the best part. I really like the idea and theme. Way to use a song to portray the message. Good work! |

Interesting. I like the fire hydrant. Would you mind if I use it at some point? I'd reference you, naturally. :] |
