This video was inspired in part by Bob Dylan's Subterranean Homesick Blues video.

The song was inspired in part by Plato's Allegory of the Cave.

Lyrics:

What you don't understand about it is what you know to be true
You said you want to stay
And then you led me astray
And all the things you got me into

But you're still coming around when you know I'm here
And all the things that you
You never want me to
All before you disappear

And when the light turns to black
And the images turn again
You don't know what to believe about it
And all you want to do is just go back

So tell me
Everything you want
Everything you believe
But don't look too far away
Because I can see right here

With the shackles lying on the floor where we left them last
When I guided you out
And you still had your doubts
All before this time had passed

And now we look forward to the time that we can go back
And all the possibilities of what this means for you and me

And when the light turns to black
And the images turn again
You don't know what to believe about it
And all you want to do is just go back

So tell me
Everything you want
Everything you believe
But don't look too far away
Because I can see right here

[RooseveltRadio]

This is a sweet song! I love finding bands in a similar vein. Good vid too.

[DJMimzy]

@sweetyamz09 It sounds like Owl City. or LIGHTS

[andrewmorke]

Great song. I wish you'd make more with this sound...

[surYEAHS]

[alexiaroach]

anybody noticed that he spelt "here" wrong? ...there was no "e" at the end of it... O_o ..."her we go" ...???

[joseitsme]

Now this is good electronic music with nice synths sound. Not like Mgmt, cause they they suck!

[joseitsme]

Oh I really like this song a lot. They sound more like Cause and Effect, New Order, Camouflage, a little bit of Depeche Mode too.

[3LOADED]

I typed DEPECHE MODE and how the fudge did this come up electronic and use the voice ? congrats. NO, IM not stuck in the 80's this is just robotic....

[shanecincy]

You guys are great. Keep up the good work.

[sweetyamz09]

why did this video pop up when i searched for Owl City/

[BustTheNotes]

I thoroughly enjoyed this :).

It's not a typical "electropop" song. It has the drum loop, and the repetitive simple feel (musically), but the vocals are much more raw than standard electropop and not repetitive at all. I feel like this is a fresh look on a genre that is both old, and emerging.
