The story of

Grey Wide World

single / 2023-07-13
synthpop, dreampop / synths, drums, vocals

A melancholic electro-dream pop gem," Grey Wide World (or GWW, as we like to call the song) is an electrifying fusion of dream pop, synthpop, and electropop. It offers a unique experience of melancholy that you could dance to (if you wanted) – or at least tap your foot to. We went for a vibrant, dreamy yet punchy sound to depict a world that is fundamentally sorrowful, leaving you with a sense of solitude even in a crowd.

"A sense of solitude even in a crowd"

The video incorporates captivating footage from a remarkable vintage boutique in Stockholm named POP Stockholm—an absolute must-visit for any vintage clothing enthusiast, and a gem of a place. ^-^

& lyrics

I’ll be shooting
 Till I’ll kill my name
 The wants, the fears
 The pain I planned
 
 I’ll die with
 All the shooting highs
 With grey wide world
 Between my thighs
 
 The shadow shot
 The shadow dies
 I can hear it
 It’s buzzing like flies
 
 Can you hear it?
 I know you can
 I’ll be shooting
 All my growing pains
 
 Running from the noisy while
 I can’t, I don’t believe it this time
 I should stay, I should just stay and smile
 I simply can’t, I’ll fire a shot in the dark
 
 Running from you all the time
 I can’t, I don’t believe this time
 I should stay, I should just stay and smile
 I simply can’t, I’ll fire a shot in the dark
 
 I’ll fire a shot in the dark
 
 Look at me
 The dried-out blotches
 The ace of spades
 When no one watches
 
 Let me die with
 All my shooting highs
 With grey wide world
 Clouding my eyes
 
 Running from the noisy while
 I can’t, I don’t believe it this time
 I should stay, I should just stay and smile
 I simply can’t, I’ll fire a shot in the dark
 
 Running from you all the time 
 I can’t, I don’t believe this time
 I should stay, I should just stay and smile
 I simply can’t, I’ll fire a shot in the dark
 
 I’ll fire a shot in the dark
 I should just stay and smile
 In the dark
 I should just stay and smile
 In the dark
 I should just stay and smile
