lyrics
Do not kill the lights and leave
First pick up the pieces, clean the debris
Your technophilic hubris
Unbox your dreams, remove the film
Do not kill the lights and heave
Turn your head, admire the ruins and grief
Do not be deceived
Just yet, just yet
Do not kill the lights, believe
Let us try this miraculous therapy
Wrap your ravenous cravings for dosh
In your ostentatious handkerchief
Cover the wounds with green
Outrageous act of bribery
Do not kill the lights and leave
For as long as I am here
And you say
That it hurts
To be self-made
I say...
I would love to float
The river carries sorrow
Bring me away from the edge
Waiting for the death blow
I would love to float
Give myself up tomorrow
You are at the riverbank
Flashing how much you have borrowed
I would love to float
The river carries sorrow
Bring me away from the edge
And pick me up tomorrow
Do not kill the lights, believe
Just wait a couple of years more
Do not kill the lights and leave
I am not done with everything I love
Do not kill the lights and leave
I want to experience everything you destroyed
Do not kill the lights and leave
Just not yet, not yet
It is to you I give
Young age when it lambent peaks
Show me what we both seek
A new dimension in the oblique
I would love to float
The river carries sorrow
Bring me away from the edge
Waiting for the death blow
I would love to float
Give myself up tomorrow
You are at the riverbank
Flashing how much you have borrowed
I would love to float
The river carries sorrow
Bring me away from the edge
And pick me up tomorrow

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
Layering guitars and saxes over synths and drum machines, this Oakland duo's darkwave is as melodically potent as it is texturally rich. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 1, 2024
Dark and seething post-punk from Cincinnati that's appealingly janky enough to make a tired genre feel fresh and urgent. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 31, 2023
