I remember first contact
Was found in a bad way
Woke up in a forest
In a bed of branches and leaves
Confused over nothing
You don’t have to be this way
Most stay in the dark room
I’d rather be clean
The first time I felt it
We could be poor and happy
And if the first should change
I’d rather give it away
Finally a real routine
And I don’t want to ever leave
Shake all the hate away
And I can be me any day
I remember the conflict
It’s ok to push away
It’s all a part of the content
There’s not much you can erase
Finally a real routine
And I don’t want to ever leave
Shake all the hate away
And I can be me any day
And I can be you any day
Dig your feet enough to stand your ground
I can feel each one of us around
Sweet relief of leaving your hometown
Sole regret is coming to this now
Finally a real routine
And I don’t want to ever leave
Shake all the hate away
And I can be me any day
And I can be you any day
Musically this feels more experimental for La Dispute reminding me of their Here, Hear releases. Very atmospheric and easy to lose your self in. Perfect for the next time you’re contemplating your existence. (Also found out the guitarist builds his own pedals and used them on this record; neato!) Mikey
Effervescent pop without a drop of irony, perfectly geared for fans of the more dance-oriented side of indie music and Tears for Fears. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 2, 2023
If you've ever had to Google clumsy phrases to find a word that matched a feeling you could only feebly describe, and you ended up discovering words like hiraeth, sehnsucht, or saudade, The Million Masks of God may be an excellent companion soundtrack to your experience. joel
