Look at me
I think I’ve always known your face in some way
I’ll admit
I’ll tell you what’s the deal
But someone stays behind to clean it up
Am I really in your way?
Is someone really in my place?
I can’t see
How you can choose for me to live just that long
All you say
Is I’m the kind of guy who turns the lights off
Look away
All the crosstalk is telling you you’ve always been the one
And I’m really in your way?
Is someone really in my place?
Am I really in your way?
I’m just saying I’m fine to die
But only if it gets you to my wake
Amazing that you knew me
I was born too fucking late
I can love like anyone who can communicate
But not for much longer
It’s not what you need from me
And I know I’m in the way
Or someone else is in my way
Someone else is in my place
Someone else is at my wake
Someone else is in my place
Someone else is my way
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
