Knock You Out Lyrics

Eight miles high and when you touch down
You'll find that it's stranger than known
Signs in the street that say where you're going
Are somewhere just being their own

Nowhere is there warmth to be found
Among those afraid of losing their ground
Rain gray town known for its sound
In places small faces unbound

Round the squares huddled in storms
Some laughing some just shapeless forms
Sidewalk scenes and black limousines
Some living some standing alone

Knock You Out

On December 17, 2013, one half of Bingo Players, Paul Bäumer, died after an ongoing cancer battle. Maarten Hoogstraten announced in early 2014 that Bingo Players would be continuing on as a solo act, as per Paul's wishes. He released this song around the same time.

The song was built around by Bäumer and Hoogstraten of Australian singer-songwriter Sia Furler's demo vocal. New Yorker Kim Viera was then brought in to sing on the track. The Berklee College School of Music graduate first broke through after her soulful rendition of Rihanna's "Diamonds" became a viral hit.

Hoogstraten told Billboard magazine that he instantly connected to Sia's lyrics about self-empowerment and triumph over haters. "It's all about overcoming struggles and emotional challenges, it really reflects [where I am] right now," he said. "When I play it, it's spot on. I could write those lyrics myself."
