The third song to be released from The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 1 soundtrack is a new tune by CHVRCHES.
“Dead Air” is an upbeat, synthesized track that describes a depressing situation but uses happy-sounding vocals to make it feel more positive.
“I will never believe what they say,” the song opens with. “There is a strength in enduring. They never speak for themselves. We are disappearing.”
“We hold onto an idea, and we’ll fight what we can’t see,” CHVRCHES sings, “We just hold onto an idea, we keep going until we can’t hear, dead air.”
