I found myself in la-la-land
where all the talking heads to to explain
and wash our brains
infect the soul
and take control of how we occupy our
days turn into months and years
the idiot box regurgitates our hopes and fears
ensuring we're waiting in line to by the lie
You look alive
You've gotta seek out the truth
and find the root of all the evil within
between the lines and the land mines of the skin that you think you're in
there's treasure
there's gold
The objects in the mirror are closer than they appear
You feel the de-ja-vu and you believe all that you hear
You've gotta think for yourself
before your life has come and gone in a flash
don't let your fear overcome you
you've gotta have something to burn to fuel the fire
you look alive
but I know what's on your mind
the dripping eye
if you seek then you will find
you look alive
but i know what's on your mind
but i know what's on your mind
but i know what's on your mind
The debut LP from Chicago's Lightleak is taut, carefully composed indie rock that doesn't lose any urgency to its intricate arrangements. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 23, 2021
