lyrics

This is never going to stop
Until everything is camouflaged
I look up, see luminosity
As lights begin to flood into our already-burning eyes

What is this?
These colours fill my vision
Saturating memories of false precision

To find a way we'll take this and abide
We break away to reach the other side
And we can't resist an urge to exist in disguise
Show me what it's like to dream neon light

We live inside a machine
A slow dependency creeping in
And I am now aware
Just close your eyes
And you will see what was always there

Seeing another world
Just let yourself be true
Don't speak out another word
With neon all around
There's nothing else in view

We're scared of something
Subdued and crushing
Perfection was always so misunderstood to me
And now the prey is hunted
Afraid of nothing
Seeing through the grey
Fluorescence pulls you free

We fall into another wasted design
But it's all we know and are
Self-preservation was the final desire
Now its final like the stars

To find a way we'll take this and abide
We break away to reach the other side
We can't resist an urge to exist in disguise
Show me what it's like
To find a way we'll take this and abide
We break away to reach the other side
And we can't resist an urge to exist in disguise
Show me what it's like to read the signs
It's all for you

We fall into another wasted design
But it's all we are
Self-preservation was always something you said would get easier

Artificial Void

“… And Everything In Between” was a great introduction to the band, and after having listened to it 2975295 times in a relatively short while I could appreciate “Artificial Void” (which is perhaps a bit more intricate?) better. Alice M.

Applause Of A Distant Crowd
by VOLA

supported by 38 fans who also own “Neon Dreaming”

Perhaps a softer, more “pop-forward” album compared to Inmazes and Witness however equally as effective. Vola simply know how to make approachable and great music. 8/10 RJ

Never heard of this band until this came on Liquid Metal...now I'm hooked and hope they come back to the states soon. Tony B!
