When we were young we tied flowers, each one, stem to stem
The precious ones we kept
When we young we spied robins, each one, empty nest
The precious ones we kept
These things I cherish
My golden treasure chest
Leave me breathless
Take me back to the days gone by
Beat, beat inside of my chest
And I heard a rumor, little bird, that you never loved
I can see it clear now
That you’re gone
When we were young we cried werewolf, each one, false alarm
The precious ones we kept
When we were young we died almost, each one, open eyes
The precious ones we kept
These things I cherish
My golden treasure chest
Leave me breathless
Take me back to the days gone by
Beat, beat inside of my chest
And I heard a rumor, little bird, that you never loved
I can see it clear
And I heard a rumor, little bird, that you never loved
I can see it clear now
That you’re gone
Don’t trick yourself because it’s easy
You’ll never get that feeling out of me
Ashes to dust because it’s easy
You’ll never get that feeling out of me
Always for love because it’s easy
You’ll never get that feeling out of me
Always for love because it’s easy
You’ll never get that feeling out of me
And I heard a rumor, little bird, that you never loved
I can see it clear
And I heard a rumor, little bird, that you never loved
I can see it clear now
That you’re gone
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
“Strangers” is packed with wonderfully menacing electro-goth—late-night horror movie music for vampire dance parties. Bandcamp New & Notable May 8, 2023
Perfectly gloomy Norwegian goth/post-punk, anchored by a punchy rhythm section and driven by chiming guitar lines and morose vocals. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 16, 2021
