lyrics
Spent from another shift, you’ve got the lights down low
Spoken not a word for days, but only at the corner store
Then an electronic sound breaks through your hall
Your cold hands on the receiver of Flat 21
Through the wires call “can we come up and play again?”
The mood breaks and you say “Just let me me buzz you in.”
Wonder where this could go?
Hoping that time goes far more slow.
Cocktail glasses clink and the turntable snarls
The conversations grow on a couch so small
Everyone tells their stories of love and war
The hours roll by and you’re wanting more
And it’s 6am — the night starts to change to grey
She looks outside “Looks like it’s gonna rain again.”
While two sleep on the floor,
In the quiet you find your answers for…
Blurring into Sunday there’s a calm inside your head
Soon the world will to start to come awake
And echo with dread
You look outside
Looks like it’s gonna rain again
Spoken not a word for days, but only at the corner store
Then an electronic sound breaks through your hall
Your cold hands on the receiver of Flat 21
Through the wires call “can we come up and play again?”
The mood breaks and you say “Just let me me buzz you in.”
Wonder where this could go?
Hoping that time goes far more slow.
Cocktail glasses clink and the turntable snarls
The conversations grow on a couch so small
Everyone tells their stories of love and war
The hours roll by and you’re wanting more
And it’s 6am — the night starts to change to grey
She looks outside “Looks like it’s gonna rain again.”
While two sleep on the floor,
In the quiet you find your answers for…
Blurring into Sunday there’s a calm inside your head
Soon the world will to start to come awake
And echo with dread
You look outside
Looks like it’s gonna rain again

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.
