The Green by Honeybadger
Honeybadger, the Athenian heavy/desert rock band that has already made its mark on the scene, returns with their new single “The Green”, an ode to the unfulfilled, to the dream we all chase. “The Green” will be one of the tracks featured on their upcoming LP, titled “Let There Be Light”.
With powerful riffs and melodies, atmospheric vocals, and lyrics that speak of the search for the ideal, “The Green” captures the urge to break free from routine, leave behind limitations, shatter the chains that hold us back, and finally reach where we have always dreamed of.
"Are we going to leave? Are we going to grieve? ‘Cause we've spent all our
lives, livin' the biggest lies.”
The emotional intensity of the song peaks as Honeybadger delve into the gap between reason and emotion, between escape and acceptance. Their music, now enriched with alternative and psych-rock elements, creates a sonic landscape perfect for those who thirst for freedom and self-discovery.

Lyrics
You told me you was so depressed
Feeling like a perfect mess
Surrounded by giant blocks
In a world full of locks
I thought that we would get away
But you decided to pray
To your unknown gods
With a pack of wild hogs
I'm beginning to wonder
Why your heart is a thunder
While my mind is so green
And you burn it for free
Are we going to leave?
Are we going to grieve?
‘Cause we've spent all our lives
Livin' the biggest lies
And I don't care what is fair
When are we divin' deep in The Green?
And I don't care what is fair
When are we divin' deep in The Green?
And I don't care what is fair
When are we divin' deep in The Green?
And I don't care what is fair
When are we divin' deep in The Green?
Ooooooh ooooooh
Ooooh oooh ooooh
Ooooooh ooooooh
Ooooh oooh ooooh
And I don't care what is fair
When are we divin' deep in The Green?
And I don't care what is fair
When are we divin' deep in The Green?
And I don't care what is fair
When are we divin' deep in The Green?
