Lost in the "Folly" of our new We Are Overlap song.
This song is about being free from the definitions we are taught as children.
To be free to live, breathe, and dance to our own song.
To let the folly of life fall aside and live the life you were given.
In the middle of the song there is a pause where we talk about love.
As a dance song, with meaning, we hope while dancing you'll use this pause to hug the one with
whom you're dancing.
Better yet, hug someone you don't know and spread the peace that is our natural state.
Thank you for supporting our band!
FOLLY
Don’t take everything so seriously
Everybody just wants to be exactly who they are
No, don’t take everything so seriously
Everything just wants to
Exactly what it is
Am I awake?
Or, is this a dream?
Not sure just what I mean
What is the difference between sleep and awake?
Sleep and awake
A game of folly that teases me
A game of folly that pleases me
A game of folly that’s haunting me
A game of folly
A game of folly
A game of folly

Shake it down to the ground touch the dust
It’s all been a lie
Shake it down to the ground touch the dust
All of it
All of it
Shake it down to the ground touch the dust
Not even a dream tells the truth
Mirrors hanging from the walls
Waiting to fall and shatter
Shake it down to the ground touch the dust
The scattered memories of make-believe
Of make-believe, of make believe
It’s all a lie
Shake it down to the ground touch the dust
Why even try?
Shake it down to the ground touch the dust
It’s all a lie
Shake it down to the ground touch the dust
Why even try?
Touch the dust
Why even try?
Shake it down to the ground touch the dust
Shake it down to the ground touch the dust
The scattered memories of make-believe
Of make-believe, of make believe
Don’t take everything so seriously
Everybody just wants to be exactly who they are
No, don’t take everything so seriously
Everything just wants to
Exactly what it is
Am I awake?
Or, is this a dream?
Not sure just what I mean
What is the difference between sleep and awake?
Sleep and awake
A game of folly that teases me
A game of folly that pleases me
A game of folly that’s haunting me
A game of folly
A game of folly
A game of folly
