lyrics
Dreams collapsing on themselves
Static on the radio
Like a fox stuck in a trap
Stare yourself out a window
Stars running out of fuel
Voices stop making words
Fools filling up the void
Now there’s something to talk about
The unease expands
A black giant mass
It’ll be the same tomorrow
Give it a pass
Don’t get yourself bent out of shape about it, that’s the truth
There’s any number of ways to get around it, time to move
When you’re thinking to yourself
Of another universe
A smog is heavy in the sky
There’s a flash of sun in the eye
Minding plans that never spark
Angst on things that were never done
Some empty souls on the TV show
There’s something to keep you up at night
The skin expands
With each lame mishap
This could keep going on like a ticker tape for a long while
But there’s no time for that
Don’t get yourself bent out of shape about it, that’s the truth
There’s any number of ways to get around it, time to move
Static on the radio
Like a fox stuck in a trap
Stare yourself out a window
Stars running out of fuel
Voices stop making words
Fools filling up the void
Now there’s something to talk about
The unease expands
A black giant mass
It’ll be the same tomorrow
Give it a pass
Don’t get yourself bent out of shape about it, that’s the truth
There’s any number of ways to get around it, time to move
When you’re thinking to yourself
Of another universe
A smog is heavy in the sky
There’s a flash of sun in the eye
Minding plans that never spark
Angst on things that were never done
Some empty souls on the TV show
There’s something to keep you up at night
The skin expands
With each lame mishap
This could keep going on like a ticker tape for a long while
But there’s no time for that
Don’t get yourself bent out of shape about it, that’s the truth
There’s any number of ways to get around it, time to move

Soft Riot recommends:
-
An unique approach crossing italo disco, epic synth and mythical themes.
go to album -
The third album from my old post-punk "revival" band that was active from 1998-2005, before social media was even a thing.
go to album -
A short lived psychedelic new wave post punk band I was in from 2009-2011, right before Soft Riot sort of kicked off. One of the strangest things I've put my fingerprints on.

Thank you for the second album. Got all three now on Bandcamp and they inspire me so much. Kids in school, then work, and kids back from school - then baths and homework - AND FINALLY a bit of time in my cobbled together mini studio in my one bedroom flat. YOU inspire me to make the effort to make all that stuff work.
go to album -
Deliciously bleak synthwave from Germany with jagged, sawing lead lines, throbbing rhythms, & ghostly vocals.
