Almost over a year since the last single and just over 6 years since Crown of Nothing, Direct Hit! are back with an anthemic track. The song was first revealed via their Instagram where they stated that any merch purchases would be met with a download link to the song. It also came after many teases...
[Intro]
You and me, we're playing in a pixelated dream
Nothing real about the love we feel between us in this scene
But if it matters more that this machine will serve you
At it's core, I guess that's best for everyone
I guess that's premiere programming
[Verse 1]
You and me, our reality's as real as a TV screen
A box around the fantasy that winks out when we see another point of view
Electrocution's coursing through my brain
Never sleeping except to update
Never weeping
"That's how we communicate," we say
[Verse 2]
You and me, surviving mostly on electricity
Staring through the screen that gives us meaning in this sea of another life, another world, another way to be
That sinking feeling you articulated would be productive if you weren't so frustrated all the time
[Chorus]
One one zero one, one one zero
One one zero one, one zero zero
One one zero one, one one zero
One one zero one, one zero zero
One one zero one, one one zero
One one zero one, one zero zero
One one zero one, one one zero
One one zero one, one zero zero
[Verse 3]
You and me
Our reality's as real as a simulation of what it's like to live without the fear of intimidation
There's no consciousness, insecurity or wanting more than what we can be
And that sinking feeling you articulated would be productive if you weren't so frustrated all the time
[Bridge]
All our circuits pressed to the same board
And if I'm not alive, who cares? I was born without a cord like yours
[Guitar Solo]
[Refrain]
You and me, we're playing in a pixelated dream
Nothing real about the love we feel between us in this scene
But if it matters more that this machine will serve you
At it's core, I guess that's best for everyone
I guess that's premiere programming
[Outro]
(Try) One one zero one
One one zero one, one one zero
One one zero one, one zero zero
One one zero one, one one zero
One one zero one, one zero zero
One one zero one, one one zero
One one zero one, one zero zero
One one zero one, one one zero
One one zero one, one zero zero
