Listen to **Fallout**

## Theme

"**Fallout** is an interesting one. We went into a session, and we played the trailer to the Dark Phoenix, which is an X-Men movie which came out a while back. We played the trailer and muted the audio, and started writing to that vibe. **Fallout** is written as a very dramatised version of the world. It's supposed to be literally, 'How would I feel if I was in the apocalypse?'. That one was written less from my personal brain and more written from like, 'If I was narrating this X-Men movie, what would I say?' " - Neoni about **Fallout** in a Discord LIVE after the OVER MY HEAD premiere.

## Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Hush now, dry your eyes

Fate is upon us

The changing of times

Welcome blood-red skies

Burn in the wake of a world left behind

[Pre-Chorus]

Di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-da

Di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-da

[Chorus]

Can't escape the fallout

Feel the fire rain down

See the shadows risin' all around

Can't escape the fallout, fallout

[Verse 2]

Down to the ashes

Bones are left to dry

Waves of desolation

There's nowhere safe to hide

[Pre-Chorus]

Di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-da

Di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-da

[Chorus]

Can't escape the fallout

Feel the fire rain down

See the shadows risin' all around

Can't escape the fallout, fallout

[Bridge]

Di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-da

Di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-da

Di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-da

Di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-da

Di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-da

Di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-di-ya, da-da-de-da

[Chorus]

Can't escape the fallout

Feel the fire rain down

See the shadows risin' all around

Can't escape the fallout, fallout

Can't escape the fallout, fallout
