I am not here to tear us apart but
I am feeling like the hole in your heart you filled in
With the chill wind that brought us here
All alone as we disappear
Give up the ghost the past has come to haunt you
Give up the most the past has come to want you
Time is just a story we tell
Time is just a long farewell
Don’t lose control to the dark of the night
Fell in love with a writer
She doesn’t write anymore
Fell in love with a stranger
He’s not a stranger anymore
And be my broken valentine
And be my broken valentine
Do you love me most where the future finds you
Do you love me, ghost, the future will remind you
Time is just a word for waiting
Time is just anticipating
Don’t lose control to the dark of the night
Fell in love with a writer
She doesn’t write anymore
Fell in love with a stranger
He’s not a stranger anymore
And be my broken valentine
And be my broken valentine
Knock me over with a flower
Break me free with a daisy
Beat me up with a buttercup
Remember me with a peony
Inspire us with an iris
Desire it with a violet
With a violet, violet, violet
With a violet, violet, violet, violet, violet
Fell in love with a writer
She doesn’t write anymore
Fell in love with a stranger
He’s not a stranger anymore
And be my broken valentine
And be my broken valentine
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
