About
This indie track captures raw unpolished vocals over guitar-driven riffs that weave through lo-fi ambient noise, evoking a sense of disorientation and introspection. Experimental song forms blend stumbling verses with anthemic choruses and a hazy bridge, all wrapped in home-recorded aesthetics featuring tape hiss and minimal mixing for an authentic DIY feel. The production prioritizes emotional grit and unconventional layering, pulling listeners into a world of frayed edges and outsider glitches.
Lyrics
Fade and hum in the hall of night Steps that stumble out of time Crowds blur past like forgotten sketches I trace lines on fogged up glass Pockets full of crumpled maps leading nowhere Chasing half dreams, feet dragged through the endless grey Collecting quirks no one claims Mirror cracks with every glance Who's the stranger wearing my face? Oh, this unravelling thread pulls me under Into the bent twisted paths where normals fade I'm the glitch in the perfect parade Hold no dead edge, dancing solo on the ledge Oh, this unravelling thread pulls me under Into the bent twisted paths where normals fade I'm the glitch in the perfect parade Hold no dead edge, dancing solo on the ledge Oh, this unravelling thread pulls me under Into the bent twisted paths where normals fade I'm the glitch in the perfect parade Hold no dead edge, dancing solo on the ledge Oh, this unravelling thread pulls me under Into the bent twisted paths where normals fade I'm the glitch in the perfect parade Hold no dead edge, dancing solo on the ledge Oh, this unravelling thread pulls me under Into the bent twisted paths where normals fade Oh, this unravelling thread pulls me under Into the bent twisted paths where normals fade Oh, this unravelling thread pulls me under Into the bent twisted paths where normals fade I'm the glitch in the perfect parade Hold no dead edge, dancing solo on the ledge Oh, this unravelling thread pulls me under Into the bent twisted paths where normals fade I'm the glitch in the perfect parade Hold no dead edge, dancing solo on the ledge Oh, this unravelling thread pulls me under Into the bent twisted paths where normals fade I'm the glitch in the perfect parade Hold no dead edge, dancing solo on the ledge Oh, this unravelling thread pulls me under Into the bent twisted paths where normals fade Oh, this unravelling thread pulls me under Into the bent twisted paths where normals fade Oh, this unravelling thread pulls me under Into the bent twisted paths where normals fade I'm the glitch in the perfect parade Hold no dead edge, dancing solo on the ledge Oh, this unravelling thread pulls me under Into the bent twisted paths where normals fade I'm the glitch in the perfect parade Hold no dead edge, dancing solo on the ledge In the hollow night steps that stumble Out of time Out of time Out of time Out of time Out of time Out of time Out of time Out of time Out of time Out of time Out of time Out of time Out of time Out of time Out of time Out of time Out of time
