lyrics

I had never heard it
Until it came up on shuffle
I sat transfixed at the speaker
It might not be a brilliant song
but it perfectly fit
The mood I was in...
track1.mp3

I only knew you by the sound of your voice
There were no tags on the file
I scoured the Internet for mentions of anything that could have been a title
And found a post on a forum for fans of another band
Who were looking for something similar to listen to
And you offered up a home-recorded demo and nothing else... track1.mp3

By the time I was hooked on your song, you were long dead
A tragic accident in the warehouse where you had lived
But a relative still had video of your very first show
So I finally got to see you perform,
It was such a mess
A work in progress...
track1.mp3

Now I put you on all my playlists and my mixtapes
But I'm no tastemaker, I've got my own product to push
But you'll live on in a file on a flash drive
Or a Russian pirate site
Until the DMCA
Makes them take it down
They'll never find you
Up there in the cloud...
