Haunted by the future’s past
Ghosts that aren't dead or alive
Enter our minds and they forever last
Archival utopia strives
forward and back in depression
where everything goes to glow then die
bleak and harrowing images flow in quick succession
dreaming perfection the west will never know
deserted with no hope
A glimpse at what could have been
Lost futures recovered I pray; amen
This isn’t how we were meant to live
I don’t think God will forgive
The wheel retraces the paragon
Hoping to find perfection again
The past and future cease and carry on
desperate to recover sanitized zen
Trapped and liberated in temporal disjunction
The nostalgia machine then erupts and malfunctions
A glimpse at what could have been
Lost futures recovered I pray; amen
This isn’t how we were meant to live
I don’t think God will forgive
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
Ottawa duo Paragon Cause craft songs that occupy the space between goth and dream pop, with sublime melodies drifting in guitar haze. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 15, 2021
