Don't wanna be the third I wanna be the first Don't wanna know your lust I want to know your worst I'll never be the one I'll always be the other When the chance will come you will choose another Never more alone than when I'm in your arms You'll never know the me you'll only know my charms The walls don't need fall 'cause we don't want in There's no need for games that we won't win Don't feel the patter in your heart The times you do you always ache Don't even think don't even start It's gone by daybreak Don't feel the flutter in your soul The times you do it's a mistake Feeling it all won't make you whole It's gone by daybreak A carnal push and the tender pull Back and forth we dance away Roll the dice to see if I dissociate I'm tired of trying to be Someone else's fantasy There's a future I try to see Where I know some amnesty Don't wanna be the thing that you never call Except for when you want to play with a doll I guess it's fine 'cause at least I know That I can feel good by giving you a show The dance is so sweet and we get our fill You go back to someone and I just have nil I've been losing hope that it'll ever come The day I get be more than just someone's fun Don't feel the patter in your heart The times you do you always ache Don't even think don't even start It's gone by daybreak Don't feel the flutter in your soul The times you do it's a mistake Feeling it all won't make you whole It's gone by daybreak I'm tired of trying to be Someone else's fantasy There's a future I try to see Where I know some amnesty.

As the smoke clears I see New found wounds, fresh bored holes New triggers, no self-control Please just bury me, bury me down Float my body across the sound In the end that's where I want to be Like a ship lost at sea I wonder what's at fault Will the flow ever halt What's at stake, what's at stake is I We can never seem to escape the self Unbecoming, or the scene's repeat We stumbled down down the ripping the sound Another day wired for repeat For every lash I give myself I have learned nothing In every desperate cry for punishment lies endless ruin The patterns keep looping instinct remains unbroken Like a trapped animal gnawing at it's leg I must scream Lay down the blows that beat you bloody Strike the cheek, the face, the temple and bleed We can never seem to escape the self Unbecoming, or the scene's repeat We stumbled down down the ripping the sound Another day wired for defeat Repeat Defeat Repeat Under the yoke of expectation Generational trauma emulation Can it feel this way? Free from what your parents say Free from what their parents say Again I feel it pass The waves wash, pass through me Unknown cost, last self-conceit Please Just bury it, bury it down My Memories of the sound In the end that's where it wants to be Locked deep in me.

Image 03:18
Without a line with a longing Within the mind lies the lie She's lost without her favorite person When she's within time flies by Look through the lens unclouded by apathy There lies your image unfolded on display The mirror reflects the truth There is no painting youth Silvering the skin Seeding lies within Sinking to the scars That cotton tucks away The image must not fade This has to change This has to change “ÖUGH” Within a sooth with the hounding Without the truth close that eye She's lost without her favorite person When she's within time flies by The strands of web unwind Spiderlings climb inside Underneath the skin They eat what's within Festering away The image will decay If you sheath the blade It can still change It can still change “HEY” Without an aim she paints pictures Within the frame lies the sky She's lost without her favorite person When she's within It all flies by.

Miracle 03:35
I've gone for too long Living like I'm not alive So I'm gonna start over tonight Beginning with you and I When this memory fades I'm gonna make sure it's replaced With chances taken, hope embraced And have I told you I'm not going 'Cause I've been waiting for a miracle And I'm not leaving I won't let you Let you give up on a miracle When it might save you We've learned to run from Anything uncomfortable We've tied our pain below And no one ever has to know That inside we're broken I try to patch things up again To calm my tears and kill these fears But have I told you, have I I'm not going 'Cause I've been waiting for a miracle And I'm not leaving I won't let you Let you give up on a miracle When it might save you It's not faith if If you use your eyes You'll lie We'll get it right this time (this time) Let's leave this all behind Oh, I will get it right this time It's not faith if you're using your eyes Oh, I Well I've gone for too long Living like I'm not alive So I'm gonna start over tonight Beginning with you and I don't want to run from Anything uncomfortable I just want no I just need this pain to end right here I'm not going 'Cause I've been waiting for a miracle And I'm not leaving I won't let you Let you give up on a miracle 'Cause it might save you Yeah, it might save you Oh, it might save you It's not faith if you If you use your eyes If you use your eyes If you use your eyes

Rose Petals 03:43
Unsure and under duress Anxious lines crack the glaze The kiln licked stoneware Finally burns Fired - the clay can crumble away The mask that wears wrought the earthenware rots Fired - the clay can crumble away, fall away The mask that wears itself falls off, away When she is next to me scarlet is all I see Lotus unfold to blind my sight Dew from the dawn lit air let the golden rays glare Flower bloom to morning bright When she is in my grasp lashed by the red rasp Lotus unfold to blind my sight Never let go of her hold the scent de fleur Overwhelmed by rose petals Skin scorched by the sun she sells Hold on to that doubt the trouble your on about The mask that wears rot the earthenware wears not Only that ceramic is safe in the vulnerable place The mask that wears rot the earthenware wears not When she is next to me violet is all I see Stars rise forth to ring my sight Chill from the moon lit air let the silver rays glare Midnight bloom to morning bright when she is in my grasp Lashed by the red rasp stars rise forth to ring my sight Never let go of her hold the scent de fleur Overwhelmed by rose petals Skin scorched by the sun she sells.

Rising up as one we seize the day We will overcome we find a way Strong by our bond Never let it go We will hold on Felling every foe To the air I cry Our friendship will never die Bound to depend On the power of our friends Every foe will fall Our friendship will conquer all Harness what's within And evil will never win To the air I cry Our friendship will never die Bound to depend On the power of our friends Every foe will fall Our friendship will conquer all Harness what's within And evil will never win By friendship we will win.

about

This album is a melting pot of influences that is trying to challenge sonic norms and tropes within death metal. Things like Voivod, Confessor, weird 90's death metal, 16-bit video game soundtracks, vocaloid music, and power pop are all baked into its highly mutated DNA.

Hypomanic Daydream will never shy away from the digital, the low, and the untrve. It'll never be shy about its blatant revelry in its queerness, transness, or communistness.
