about

The powerful lead single from Liquid Modern’s upcoming debut full-length is an energetic, upbeat 80s inspired synth-pop song.

Musically, it is reminiscent of 80s Cyndi Lauper-style synth-pop blended with modern pop elements. It begins with a catchy synth lead and simple upbeat guitar as it builds to twinkling arpeggiated synths, a big grooving synth bassline and a driving beat accentuated by a syncopated wood block.

Singer Kojette's lyrical content and melodic capabilities come across beautifully in a slightly distorted urgency through dynamic changes as the catchy-nature of the carefully-crafted hook. Blending pop sounds with indie/punk production elements fits the powerful message of the song.

Lyrically, the song asks its listener to actively stand up for themselves and affect change in their own lives rather than blindly accept the status quo.

lyrics

It’s bent up
It’s so twisted
You’re playing us like we missed it
We don’t have the power for changing
So you just keep rearranging

Now it works for only you (ooh ooh)
Everyone is so damn through (ooh ooh)
We can’t fix it so why even try
Everything has gone so far awry

You take licks on our morality
You make us question our reality
Believe in what I don’t anymore
A generation never heard is no more
We’re making history
Be a part of this story

(“This is the way the world ends”)

You question us but we keep changing
All you’re doing to us is estranging
Stuck in history is where you’ll be (ee ee)
While we make our final plea (ee ee)

I can’t do anything for you (ooh ooh)
This is something you must do (ooh ooh)
Save us or save yourself
It’s something that hides inside as well

You make life full of banality
Tell lies to cover up your vanity
Believe in what you don’t anymore
A generation you have learned to ignore
We’re taking history
Be a part of the story

(“This is the way the world ends;
not with bang but a whimper”)

You take licks on our morality
You make us question our reality
Believe in what I don’t anymore
A generation never heard is no more

We are making history
Be a part of this story
