lyrics
Time lapse reel — filing down of the tinder that sparks you
A hand will lift one thousand times for the price of the pay off
Taking to the phrase of good things come to those who wait
A long time — pounce — eyes locked
When it comes on strong
A mad rush like the first sign
Feel the hale crest arc down right onto your head
It takes the flick of the wrist to hack hard to push ahead
You could just call it a day on the ground but you’d rather be dead
A coin to throw into the well to keep on dreaming
It’s no use but mirrors friction to conceding
Searing the roots of moments so the colours don’t start to fade
Red — raw — seemingly war paint
When it comes on strong
Like a flash rain on a parade
That allegory comes hard right onto your head
Time lapse reel — frames moving forward
Celluloid starts to burn as the tension plays
A smokescreen in the fire is where you find your shade
When it comes on strong
That gripping jolt that tells right away
Feel that white crest crash over right down on your head
A hand will lift one thousand times for the price of the pay off
Taking to the phrase of good things come to those who wait
A long time — pounce — eyes locked
When it comes on strong
A mad rush like the first sign
Feel the hale crest arc down right onto your head
It takes the flick of the wrist to hack hard to push ahead
You could just call it a day on the ground but you’d rather be dead
A coin to throw into the well to keep on dreaming
It’s no use but mirrors friction to conceding
Searing the roots of moments so the colours don’t start to fade
Red — raw — seemingly war paint
When it comes on strong
Like a flash rain on a parade
That allegory comes hard right onto your head
Time lapse reel — frames moving forward
Celluloid starts to burn as the tension plays
A smokescreen in the fire is where you find your shade
When it comes on strong
That gripping jolt that tells right away
Feel that white crest crash over right down on your head

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.

I've always enjoyed Boy Harsher but I don't think they ever really clicked in my brain until I watched The Runner. Now I can't get enough.
