MAVOY MUSIC FRIDAY - 6 AUGUST 2021

The song was written during the long and lonely period of pandemic isolation. As the streets of Copenhagen lay desolate and dark, The New Investors met in their studio sanctuary to record this song for their upcoming album. 

While the feeling of social deprivation and lost youth increased in the outside world, the song evolved into an up-tempo hymn. It celebrates our basic human urge to break out of this miserable isolation and find a sanctuary where we can be more than just ourselves.


Lyrics:
Underneath the city there’s a place for us to go
Hidden in the ruins of the night
Waiting for the secret code to light up on your phone
The curfew’s on we must move on let’s go

You don’t have to be yourself
You don’t have to be yourself tonight
And I don’t have to understand a thing
Cause I don’t even know your name
I don’t even know your name at all
Pretend that we don’t realize this is the last goodbye

Sneaking through the alleyways they’ve come to be redeemed
In a crowded basement underground
They’ve come here to escape pandemic isolation
To celebrate the new community that we have found

You don’t have to be yourself
I don’t even know your name

You don’t have to be yourself
You don’t have to be yourself tonight
And I don’t have to understand a thing
Cause I don’t even know your name
I don’t even know your name at all
Pretend that we don’t realize this is the last goodbye

Don't Be Yourself

We’re moving out to the west coast, we used to say
however long it takes, we’ll hold the line
We’ll hold the line
But if it bottoms out we’ll throw the whole thing off
Pitch a castle somewhere no one can be bothering us
We’ve waited so long
We’ve waited so we’ll go wherever you’ll feel okay
And I know a place in the sun
I know a place in the palms of our hands
If you wanna bear the waves oh
If you wanna bear the waves

Or take another route
Throw the whole thing off
Raise a chance from all the past we’ve been blowing off
Friends of old homes for sake of our families
We’ll throw it all to the waves of a notion
If you wanna go away oh 
If you wanna go away

If you wanna go away
If you wanna go away
If you wanna go away (we waited)
If you go another way (we waited)
I won’t hold you back (we waited)
If you go another way (we waited)
I won’t hold you back (we waited)
If you wanna go away (we waited)		
I won’t hold you back (we waited)
If you go another way (we waited)
I won’t hold you back

LYRICS
Should I get up and leave?
Cos I’ve been running, running for long
You’re holding out for me
But I don't know if I can be what you want

Now my heart is no machine
For me to wipe out all the fear
Of fucking up what we are doing
Cos I’ve been round here before
It’s hard to reconstruct my thoughts
And just give in to what you say is real

You want me to love, love you honestly
But I don’t seem to know who I wanna be
With the heat high, under this floodlight

Infatuation creeps
It accelerates and suddenly it slows
You say you think like me
But is that a fire in you I see glow?

Now my heart is no machine
For me to wipe out all the fear
Of fucking up what we are doing
Something tells me you want more
I’ve over analyzed before
Til my blood begins to break my skin

You want me to love, love you honestly
But I don’t seem to know who I wanna be
With the heat high, under this floodlight

You want me to love, love
You want me to love, love
You want me to love, love
You want me to love, love

I know that we don’t need to say no more
But I’m going crazy not knowing what we are
The weight of a choice
I think I should know if you are the one I’m needing

You want me to love, love
You want me to love, love
With the heat high, under this floodlight

You want me to love, love you honestly
But I don’t seem to know who I wanna be
With the heat high, under this floodlight

Burning fossils across
This pavement of ours
What you fear and what you see here
Skies of mashed potato starch
This February march
Parading past this year

Don’t take this out on yourself
Just let it all melt
Don’t take this out on yourself again, Evelyn

Eating late, loading bay
A smoke in the rain
On your dinner break
Overboard, washed ashore
Wound up back at your door
I know what you’re thinking

Don’t take this out on yourself
Just let it all melt
Don’t take this out on yourself again, Evelyn
Don’t take it out on yourself again, Evelyn

If you’ve never been wrong
If you’ve never been wrong
If you’ve never been wrong all along
Only means you’re still wrong

Don’t take this out on yourself
Just let it all melt
Don’t take this out on yourself again, Evelyn
Don’t take it out on yourself again, Evelyn

This Fractured Mind

Out beyond the city's lights
Make a bed of the hillside

Stare at the celestial sky
Enveloping your sight and mind

Could I fall upwards forever?
Past the edge of the heavens?

Little planet spinning round
Why must we fall only down?

Sweet escape above the ground
Lungs might burst but here we only drown

Could I fall upwards forever?
Past the edge of the heavens?
