Angus Maude’s new indie-pop offering “Blockbuster” paints a picture of a relationship falling apart, where one half realizes that the other is no longer in love but is refusing to leave. Angus draws a parallel between that dynamic & the denial involved with drug addiction: ‘I know you don’t love...
[Chorus]
Feelings go with snow under street lights
Body up, brain low
I can float comatose in the moonlight and be your UFO
I will fly through a sunbeam to keep a cure in the mix
But I know you don’t love me, I’m just your fix
[Verse 1]
Oh, I’ve gotta get it right while you’re holding on
It’s the middle of the night and you’re almost gone
And I’m fading with the light
You would walk away
But I flicker in your mind and you let me stay
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I fuck up, I see your face
Colour in my eyes, tell me it’s okay
Help me, help me
[Chorus]
Feelings go with snow under street lights
Body up, brain low
I can float comatose in the moonlight and be your UFO
I will fly through a sunbeam to keep a cure in the mix
But I know you don’t love me, I’m just your fix
[Hook]
Muted movies moving their coloured light around your eyelids
You need two scenes to sleep for every night I’m uninvited
[Verse 2]
In January, I could remember how you loved me
In December, I forgot, I forgot
Watching movies every night ’til we fall asleep and I’m waiting for proof that you’re happy but I know you’re not
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I fuck up, I see your face
Colour in my eyes, tell me it’s okay
Help me, help me
[Chorus]
Feelings go with snow under street lights
Body up, brain low
I can float comatose in the moonlight and be your UFO
I will fly through a sunbeam to keep a cure in the mix
But I know you don’t love me, I’m just your fix
[Hook]
Muted movies moving their coloured light around your eyelids
You need two scenes to sleep for every night I’m uninvited
[Outro: Angus Maude & Lawrence Maude]
What was that song about?
Um– [unintelligible]
But I don't remember what it was about!
Um, uh– [unintelligible]
That's good!
Now– now say "thank you, ladies and gentlemen!"
"Thank you, ladies and gentlemen!"
Thanks
Okay, thank you, ladies and gentlemen
'Til next time
