On a loop the same dream
Of a dark room and a black screen
And we all stand mid scream
Pupils to the white, tears stream
Cheering on that perfect nothing
We blur together into something new
On a loop those soft words
That distorted every version of
A world we thought we knew and loved
Forever and ever
And maybe for the better
Whispering, "There is no dark room,
There is no black screen,
No one around you,
No happy ending.
There is no wake up
There is no shake off
And no alarm clock
This is no dream, boy
This is it."
There is no dark room
There is no black screen
No one around you
No happy ending
There is no wake up
There is no shake off
And no alarm clock
This is no dream, boy
This is it
There is no endgame
There is no next thing
No dungeon of flame
And no ascending
There is no tunnel
There are no long beams
Things are what they seem
This is no dream, boy
This is everything

Montreal psych-pop veterans sound as infectious and hypnotic as ever on their seventh LP, slinging jangly riffs and bright vocal harmonies. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 14, 2024
