about
The first single off the band’s current album. Sonically, it marks the expansion of the band’s palette with electronic music techniques, seeing the band experiment with infusing modular synthesis and nature and foley samples into their guitar driven math rock sound. Lyrically, the song paints a melancholic picture of a person stuck in a mundane routine and longing for something more.
lyrics
Laze around in Sunday blues,
Youth is all there is to lose
Gazing at the ocean sky
Warm breeze in mid July
Breathe out, breathe in
Breathe out I’m somewhere else
I’m back home in a tiny room
Street lights, bright window panes
Try my best to fall asleep,
Try my best to fall asleep
When morning filters in
With warmth and all her tones
All that’s left of me
Is not what I desire
Waking up to
Cycle through the day
Dream in fluorescent lights again
Awake and self aware
Feed the slow decay
Sit around and wish I was
Outside these four walls
When morning filters in
With warmth and all her tones
All that’s left of me
Is not what I desire
Gazing at the ocean sky
Warm breeze in mid July
Breathe out, breathe in
Breathe out I’m somewhere else
I’m back home in a tiny room
Street lights, bright window panes
Try my best to fall asleep,
Try my best to fall asleep
