Always the Cold Moon

Oh, sweet clarity
You’re falling
Won’t you come back to me now
‘Cause when you’re gone from me
I’m drifting to futility
My familiar crown
With every corner I turn
A searing light will burn
It’s following me
Mocking my every step
Laughing at each gasp of breath
It always seems to be…
Always the cold moon
Always, always
Always the cold moon.
Oh, sweet clarity
Won’t you come back to me
You are all I need
But now you’re gone from me
Like the day turned too quickly
Into darkest dream
With every corner I turn
A searing light still burns
Turning dreams to dust
And just when I thought I’d reached the end
It seems to come for me again
Yeah all I see is…
Always the cold moon
Always, always
Always the cold moon.
Distorting my reality
Destroying my gravity
It’s my own worst enemy
Self-inflicted tragedy
It was always you.
Always the cold moon
Always, always
Always the cold moon!

Even the Rain

Don’t want to wake up to this day of mourning
The end has finally come
The leaves have finally fallen
Yesterday I crossed the plains
To my youth’s gilded glade
And there I realized things were not the same
Mighty clouds had come
Darkened my brightest sun
Telling me what was done cannot be undone
But not even the rain
Can wash it all away
Forever left its mark
Forever marks the stain
And all of the pain
Will haunt those memories
Forever mars this heart
Forever lost in chains
Like all you’ve wished for
Now gone
Death kissed your lips
Sings his same old song
It echoes through your mind
Throughout all of time!
Reminding you what was done cannot be undone
But not even the rain
Can wash it all away
Forever left its mark
Forever marks the stain
And all of the pain
Will taint those memories
Forever mars your heart
Forever left in chains
Like a widow with a broken heart
Now is the time to turn the key and the lock
Turn it!
For you cannot return
No, you can never return
So make peace with it!

The Inheritance
03:31

Close and lock the doors
And draw the blackest of curtains
I am sealed off from this world
Now they are gone, I have no purpose.
I watched the old man die
I watched the last glint of light go out in his eye
Now I’m the last in line
Oh, what horrors happen in the dead of night!
Now all that’s left
Is the Inheritance
This recompense
Feeds my decadence
An empty home
Is all I have left
It’s like a noose hanging ‘round my neck!
Should I be living, or should I be dead?
I’m dancing with dead memories in my head!
With vacant eyes
I watch the winter’s gloom
I hide behind the caking dust
Of the old window
Here I stay
I feel as if I must
There’s no other way
A punishment.
For a life that’s turned to rust!
Now all that’s left
Is the Inheritance
This recompense
Feeds my decadence
An empty home
Is all I have left
It’s like a noose hanging ‘round my neck!
Should I be living, or should I be dead?
I’m dancing with dead memories in my head!
When they went gone
My world turned black
No pieces of silver
Could bring them back
I lay forlorn
Upon this torture rack
Forever reminded
Of what I lack…
Spirit!

It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago.

Darkwave synth that directly addresses our modern dystopian political environment, with proceeds going to the Voting Rights Project.

Three new songs and three remixes from Italian darkwavers Ash Code will surely grace goth club speakers once we can go pick cobwebs again.

On their 10th record, the Glasgow-based group serves up more wonderfully menacing, gothy synthpop, perfect for dungeon dancing.
