  • Exclusive listen to new Royal Coda single "Even If".
    LYRICS
    Tick tock tick ticking away with nothing to say it somehow escapes you,
    No please don’t throw it away no reason to stay but somehow concerns you,
    Staring we hold each other‘s hands nothing in this place built to last,
    We’re manufactured with a kill switch inside ourselves. now is it truly left to chance or clever circumstance yeah the presents’ so selfish we close our eyes for a moment and it’s gone
    Time is our constant feud with comfort, love, and feeling loneliness
    Though I thought that you’d approve,
    But borrowed happiness turns to distress
    Even if your love cuts through will it die
    Even if your love cuts through will it die or will it last?
    Showing up with a brand new face and a whole new space I barely recognized you epicaricacy always sad to see but somehow excites you
    Glaring and scheming forms a plan execute past presenting
    Panned from left to right and then right to left and then left to right and then back again
    Time is our constant feud with comfort, love, and feeling loneliness
    Though I thought that you’d approve
    But borrowed happiness turns to distress
    Even if your love cuts through will it die
    Even if your love cuts through will it die or will it last will it last will it last
