lyrics
Broadcasting messages
my signals getting lost
the end
when it begins -
misfire
live wire
empty mind
step 1: denial is long
you push to the brick
you answer to no one
upstairs it’s crystal clear
when my mouth don’t work
it’s just the message is breaking up
I can’t hear you
the message is breaking up
say it louder
Next up: life of one
that sinking feeling’s gone
it ain’t that I’m paying attention (or not)
the missing link is lost
it got a hold of me
this conversation is breaking it off…
it ain’t that I’m paying attention (or not)
in the end it’s just… breaking up
I can’t hear you
the message is breaking up
say it louder
I said the message is breaking up
I’m lost in La Mancha
channel surfing America
I wrote Him a letter
cuz the message is breaking up

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
