The story of

Of Monsters and Shadows

single / 2024-10-03
synth pop / synths, drums, vocals

We could tell you all about the poetic touches and deeper meanings, or about the love for The Postal Service we share… but in the end, the important message of the song is that we’re all carrying our own monsters, our own shadowy memories and features and flaws that become the things we hurt ourselves with, and others, with, and it’d do us better to acknowledge them then to pretend they’re not there.

"the “monsters” we carry within that can harm not just ourselves, but others and the world around us"

Agree? Disagree? Your choice, of course. Of Monsters and Shadows is, in any case, out in the world, and you can love it or hate it or… just accept it 😉 We have been stoked to work together again 🖤

& lyrics

Did you ever think about
 There are no people around
 Just monsters and shadows
 Just whatnots and meadows
 
 Did you ever wonder why
 The monsters never try
 The monsters never leave
 Carried in their sleep
 
 Could you ever tell me please
 The end of last plot twists
 The shadow banned from here
 Was asking me to hear
 
 Did you ever think about
 There are no people around
 Just monsters inside us
 Just shadows to pass last
 
 Just shadows to pass last
 Just shadows to pass last
 
 Look inside
 What you do
 Is only
 Shadow you
 
 Look inside
 What you see
 Is always
 Making me
 
 I’ll I’ll I’ll I’ll
 I’ll sleep with one eye open
 Laying on your kitchen floor
 I run up from the basement
 And feel like I can live once more
 
 Suddenly I’m young again
 And the thoughts feel like friends
 I’ve known them for so long
 Losing them would feel wrong
 
 Should I ever talk you through
 The shadow side of you
 The monster that’s right here
 Other side of our sleep
 
 Should I ever wonder why
 The shadows shout their hi's
 Like echoes of our tears
 Like looming of dark dreams
 
 Did you ever think about
 There are no people around
 With monsters inside us
 We’re shadows to pass last
 
 Look inside
 What I feel
 Are monsters
