Lyrics: Last night all black and white When I was sleeping I felt shadows and emptiness Surround me Just keep telling myself to live my life alive Like everything else Just keep on breathing and live
While I’m alive I’ll live my life (Colors and the sound)
Saw the way I would die While I was dreaming Cold but hearing the sound That a heart beats Keep on telling myself To live my life alive Like everything else Just keep on breathing and live

#WhileImAlive #STRFKR #MiracleMileSTRFKR - REPTILIANS (10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY EDITION) [FULL ALBUM STREAM]STRFKR Music2021-03-08 | Newly Remastered and extended.
On Reptilians, STRFKR’s second full-length album and first for long-time label home Polyvinyl, the band built on what they had accomplished with their self-titled debut album (2008) and the Jupiter EP (2009) to create an infectious combination of acoustic instrumentation and electronic production.
Originally released on March 8, 2011, Reptilians has since become one of the band’s most intriguing and successful releases to date. Featuring fan favorites “Bury Us Alive” and “Julius,” Reptilians was written almost entirely by principal songwriter Joshua Hodges with help from bandmates Shawn Glassford, Keil Corcoran, and long time friend Randy Bemrose. The band mixed with Jacob Portrait in the famed Portland studio The Odditorium. Lyrically, the album focuses primarily on death and the end of the world, two subjects intertwined at the forefront of Hodges’ mind following the passing of his grandmother.
To celebrate its 10-Year anniversary, Reptilians will be released as a deluxe reissue (2xLP) with 4 bonus tracks and reimagined artwork by original artist Sohale Kevin Darouian. Remastered by Mike Nolte at Eureka Mastering.
1. Born (0:00) 2. Julius (3:23) 3. Bury Us Alive (7:11) 4. Mystery Cloud (10:22) 5. Death as a Fetish (feat. Mattress) (14:47) 6. Astoria (19:03) 7. Reptilians (21:45) 8. The White of Noon (24:33) 9. Hungry Ghost (28:58) 10. Mona Vegas (31:08) 11. Millions (34:47) 12. Quality Time (37:21) 13. Slow Dance (Bonus Track) (40:20) 14. Recess Time (Bonus Track) (44:04) 15. Helium Muffin (Bonus Track) (46:25) 16. The Wisdom of Insecurity (Bonus Track) (51:22)
#STRFKR #Reptilians #FullAlbumStream #ListeningParty #10YearAnniversaryHappy Fucking HolidaysSTRFKR Music2020-12-18 | Recorded in 2007 for Willamette Week's Another Grey Christmas comp. "Happy Fucking Holidays to you and you. I hope you say all the right things, just/kiss like you mean it. Happy Holidays."
STRFKR's sound has morphed over the years through variations of hyper catchy, danceable pop, but on Ambient 1 – the band's first fully instrumental album – they have achieved something very different. For a little shy of an hour, Ambient 1 drifts through softly glowing electronic instrumentals that extract the synth core from the group's well established synth pop sound. It's patient, playful, and calming music that travels through passageways of chaos and anxiety on a journey towards healing.
Upon completing work on the lo-fi dreaminess of the recently released Future Past Life, STRFKR's principal songwriter Josh Hodges found himself returning repeatedly to albums by his favorite ambient artists and minimal composers. This growing obsession with synthesis and the culture around it also concurred with the daily darkness of the pandemic and some personal disruptions. Without spending too much time thinking about what it meant, Hodges began recording ambient experiments almost daily as a way of processing these difficult emotions. Echoes of masters like Harold Budd and Brian Eno can be heard in the angelic floating of “Work Smoothly Lifetime Peace” while tracks like "Nexus" are stormy and frenetic.
In some ways, Ambient 1 is unlike anything STRFKR has created before, but when completely absorbed, it makes sense why it's included under the STRFKR banner. Even at his most drony and experimental, Hodges can't escape his distinctive melodic approach. Ambient 1 strips away the familiar and the expected, exposing Hodges' signature sonic personality at a granular level.

DEAR STRANGER Sweet mother kept me forever Alone and safe in a room Why would I ask for anything other Your world is all that I ever knew Her hands pulling me closer Her eyes all heavy and cold She said I keep you from danger I’m your careful protector All of these voices are making me nervous Follow them outside Leaving with nothing Under the surface I am a stranger What else to become No one else to become The last time you tell me it’s simple I keep it in the back of my mind She said now don’t be a stranger Just keep your head on your shoulders
NEVER THE SAME You look just like your mother Oh those pretty brown eyes How you fight for each other I could hide in your smile You told me that you keep no secrets Hiding's never worth it in the end And my feelings still haven't changed They said I'm crazy for it What I don't know about love? And we were never the same Would you go on living forever I'll know when I'm ready to die And when we bury each other Shake a million meanings out your side
DEEP DREAM I saw your face in a dream I heard you whispering my name I thought it couldn’t be real though When everything before all looked the same (Who)’s watching me As I walk away To the other side Lie down slow Let it overflow Open my eyes And I paint it gold I let it go Leaving all my love Walk through the door And I paint it gold What isn’t there that you need Don’t wanna do it on your own My thought’s unfold like a movie While they(’re) always playing the same song
SECOND HAND Fed up with the games we’re playing Seems we’re always starting over again With all our memories fading And I can’t remember how we began You’re all second chances Just thinking out loud What else can I say I’m feeling sick again Been reading Web MD It must cancer then Don’t know what’s wrong with me I’m feeling sick again Don’t know what else I need It must be over then Don’t know what’s wrong with me Fed up with the games we’re playing Why we always starting over again? While all our memories fade And fall apart and turn to dust in the end Now you’re broken hearted Cause you couldn’t finish What you had started
BETTER TOGETHER Better together Harmony Care for each other Harmony I will always let you down I will always be around We relate
BUDAPEST Don’t wanna fake it Couldn’t remember your name Losing our minds together. we are I wanna know what’s inside us Even if it’s only silence Stealing a moment’s all that we have Can you read between the lines See with your own eyes Leave it alone where you are Can you read between the lines Keep it in your mind No one remembers at all Don’t wanna make it up Don’t wanna know where you are Wasting our lives together. we are Now that you know Safe and warm Stealing a moment’s all that we have
PALM READER I, I don’t know why Why I should try Wasting my time Why should I lie Lying awake Night after night You’ll wait forever love Your time has come and gone You drag yourself along All the way Why won’t you say it? Say what you always felt was missing Why can’t you see it? Nothing to go on but you’re older just be Honest with yourself
SEA FOAM You lose your balance You lose control And even though your heart was breaking You never say it Don’t let it show That’s just the way that you are Everybody knows it Everybody knows but they don’t care Everybody knows it Everybody knows it’s not enough Are we safe enough again Are we sailing under the water You never doubt it Not on your own You’re just sick of all the faking A true believer You have it all That’s just the way that you are And everybody knows it Everybody know but they don't care Everybody knows it Are we safe enough again Are we sailing under the water Are we safe enough again Under the water Are we safe enough again I’m hanging on I’m losing air What isn’t there I’m hanging on under the water Slowly inhale
PINK NOISE Is it all in your mind All in your mind All that you know Keeping an eye on another world Another reality Is it all in your mind All in your mind Over the light Sneaking around every other world Every reality Or nothing at all No mind Nothing at all Is it all in your mind All in your mind How would I know Keeping an eye on another world Another reality Is it all in your mind All in your mind All that I know While all of our memories fade away An land in another world Or nowhere at all
COLD COMFORT All my life It’ll be alright Keep this all to yourself All my life Try and make it right Nowhere else you can go All my life I’ll try It’ll be alrightSTRFKR - Budapest (feat.

Lyrics: Don’t wanna fake it Couldn’t remember your name Losing our minds together. we are
I wanna know what’s inside us Even if it’s only silence Stealing a moment’s all that we have
Oh Can you read between the lines See with your own eyes Leave it alone where you are Oh Can you read between the lines Keep it in your mind No one remembers at all
Don’t wanna make it up Don’t wanna know where you are Wasting our lives together. we are
Now that you know Now that you know Safe and warm Stealing a moment’s all that we have

Lyrics: I saw your face in a dream I heard you whispering my name I thought it couldn’t be real though when everything before all looked the same
(Who)’s watching me As I walk away To the other side
Lie down slow Let it overflow Open my eyes And I paint it gold
I let it go Leaving all my love Walk through the door And I paint it gold
What isn’t there that you need Don’t wanna do it on your own My thought’s unfold like a movie While they(’re) always playing the same song
(Who)’s watching me As I walk away To the other side
Lie down slow Let it overflow Open my eyes And I paint it gold
I let it go Leaving all my love Walk through the door And I paint it gold

Lyrics: Fall away from the edge of the world where I’m fine on my own felt right alone bled white
soft cell where there’s nowhere to go there where nobody knows theres nothing at all shadow light shadow light
my thoughts all evil and pure gone away from my own design satellite show me light
I felt so close to a cure in a moment of passing time Show me light Satellite Show me light Lonely light Show me light Only light
slow wave tangled up in a haze of a short faded memory moving down there in front of me relaying repeating
body rides over the falls where I'm finding my home where theres nothing at all shadow light shadow light

Lyrics: I know I should go But I want to stay Here with you In this room I can tell We'll never be alone
Never mind ok Never mind ok Never mind ok
I know You have to go But I want to keep you to myself Like a dream I can tell We'll never be alone
Lyrics: You got the money And the heartache And the rest just turns to dust Before I get to you Like I always do I never forget you My little wonder girl
You got a hand up In the window With the baseball bat Lying next to your bed To protect yourself Oh but it's such a joke A silly dream Mine mine mine mine mine
Your body is a corpse A rusty bag of nails Lying by the sea Your skin is slipping off The seaweed and urchins Feed on your bones
Your body is a corpse A rusty bag of nails Lying by the sea Your skin is slipping off The seaweed and urchins Feed on your bones
You got some big plans For your nice house And some good friends You got a lot to live for You even have health insurance Oh what a bore You could have so much more
Peeked up your head Looked out the window Through the curtains Like I couldn't see you But of course I do I'd never forget you I'm your only friend You’re mine mine mine mine mine
Your body is a corpse A rusty bag of nails Lying by the sea Your skin is slipping off The seaweed and urchins Feed on your bones
Lyrics- In the night when I come Crawling home I want to say to you Curse the daylight When I come Crawling home I want to say to you Sleep, set me free In a dream I am born Apathetic, finally I’m not sure anymore We just take what we need If I was stronger I would play the fool I would say to you Mock the day, when I come crawling home I would say to you
Lyrics- Last night all black and white When I was sleeping I felt shadows and emptiness Surround me Just keep telling myself to live my life alive Like everything else Just keep on breathing and live
While I’m alive I’ll live my life (Colors and the sound)
Saw the way I would die While I was dreaming Cold but hearing the sound That a heart beats Keep on telling myself To live my life alive Like everything else Just keep on breathing and live
