lyrics
Bring on the noise
I’ll check the choices
and forget it, forget it, forget it, forget it
my nest is full
there is no time
lock jawed
I’m afraid
please make this go away
I need
your kind
new things at last
you’re by my side
those things don’t last with you by my side
You are my bird of prey
I lost my voice
I’m checking boxes in the middle of the night
forget it forget it
these claws in me
no space
no time
lock jawed
I’m afraid
please make this go away
I need
your kind
new things at last
you’re by my side
those things don’t last when you’re by my side

It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days.
Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago. modestwriggles
I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche. dani_bloop
