NIGHT TAPES - DRIFTING [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

Listen to Drifting: merch: Subscribe to Night Tape’s channel: @nighttapes6077 Follow Night Tapes: we wrote this song over a few weeks in the middle of summer. it contains a paradox and to be honest we’re still in the process of discovering the nuances of meaning in it. I think that sometimes drifting can take you where you need to be, other times it can take you to the open sea where your feet can’t touch the ground anymore. we hope you enjoy this existentialist pop song - big up Maurice Merleau-Ponty. Director and editor: Owain Emyr Morgan Lights: Gian-Claudio Calipa Narrative consultant: Jordan Mitchell LYRICS: So I say Romanticism must die The mind that lords over love Is just un-fucking-useful An idea An idea that doesn’t let you choose As I stare into a blaze of desire That is forever youthful So I vanish to a cobalt sky The shape of what I thought was I Wild shadow with a pale blue eye Romanticism must die Ain’t this the dream you wanted all along? Solid honey you can call home Ain’t this the dream you wanted all along? Most of us are just drifting Do you believe That you’ll stay forever young With the right technology Evade the laws of physics What about The crust that forms around your soul? The loops of recurring thoughts? The edges of your being? So I vanish to a cobalt sky The shape of what I thought was I Wild shadow with a pale blue eye Romanticism must die Ain’t this the dream you wanted all along? Solid honey you can call home Ain’t this the dream you wanted all along? Most of us are just drifting And I feel I can begin again Most of us are just drifting And I feel I can begin again Most of us are just drifting #nighttapes #drifting
