Rival Waves - The Greater Fool

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1994586
It's five until nine
He's out of his mind
And hugging these lines
On back to you

Hitting rewind
Just to leave it behind
This town fades away
In the rearview

Feeling alive
Gears melted in drive
Nothing will keep him
From the truth

But he's never on time
Just another in line
To give up
The only thing he knew

Then the pain comes rushing back again
A broken heart beneath this worn-in skin
Nothing...
He's given away...everything...
Everything!
The greater fool will never let you go
The farther you fall, the further I'll go
The greater fool will never let you go…

We built up a wall
Of missteps and falls
Doing the best
That we could do
But this flight has stalled
With no emotion recall
We're falling
With nothing left to lose

If misstated at all
He's still standing in awe
And marvels at
What he always knew
But he's not gonna crawl
So this time it's your call
He's leaving it all
On up to you

Then the pain comes rushing back again
A broken heart beneath this worn-in skin
Nothing
He's given away...everything
Everything!
The greater fool will never let you go
The farther you fall, the further I'll go
The greater fool will never let you go

When I see you
I get taken to a better place
Somewhere out there

As I find my way
Down this open road
I know I'm going home
To you

Won't let you go
NO!

The greater fool
Will never let you
The greater fool won't let you go!

The greater fool
Will never let you
The greater fool won't let you go!

Biography

edit bio
Rival Waves is an American rock band from Austin, Texas. Blending propulsive, guitar-fueled sonics with a relentlessly fearless post-punk aesthetic, Rival Waves marry distortion-soaked, hard driving rhythms with anthemic arena-ready choruses that have earned the band initial comparisons to Pearl Jam and U2. Make no mistake, though – armed with a drive to create a meaningful connection between art and audience, a focused DIY ethos centered on the convergence of music and technology, a proclivity towards consistent musical experimentation, and an earnest commitment to topics ranging from the intimately personal to the sociopolitical, Rival Waves take their cues from Fugazi as much as they do Foo Fighters.

The project began as concept singer/songwriter Joel De La Garza developed to leverage disruptive tech to meaningfully engage with fans in an ever-changing music industry. Entrenched in a South Austin studio, he began writing and recording material that would be the band’s musical blueprints. This led to collaborations with some of the genre’s best musicians – including members of Pearl Jam, Linkin Park, Nine Inch Nails, and Hans Zimmer.

During these sessions, De La Garza realized his desire to turn this studio project into a live rock n' roll band. In 2016, guitarists Marc Schulz and Erik Salinas joined the collective – and Rival Waves was born.

On the heels of the band’s first two single releases in 2017, the band released their debut album, TRANSDUCER, in 2018. After supporting the album locally and regionally, and releasing another single, “Hwy 100” in July 2019, the band decided it was time to do release a follow-up more representative of the band’s growth since its formation. Working with Grammy-nominated producer Chris “Frenchie” Smith, the band went back into studio in December 2019 to record their as-yet-untitled second album due out in Spring 2020.
