lyrics
IRL by Parallels
Powerlines all running wild through me
in the light of a digital dream
couldn't help how I felt so alone
till I found your face on my phone
it was midnight my time
we were wasted and online
it's how we play modern love
it makes it hard to fuck it up
If you got close to me, closer than through this screen
standing eye to eye, would it be true in real life?
Would it be true?
Fell asleep in the light of our blue dream
felt nice to hear you breathe
in the end we press escape
but I wanted to stay
It could mean so much
cause nothing compares to the weight of blood, the weight of your human touch
maybe I'm wrong to believe
but I see myself surrounded by your things
If you got close to me, closer than through this screen
standing eye to eye, would it be true in real life?
{{ In real life }}
Would it be true?
I could feel your touch
Would it be true?
I could feel your heart
In real life?
I could feel...heart
{{real life}}
If you got close to me, closer than through this screen
standing eye to eye, would it be true in real life?
Powerlines all running wild through me
in the light of a digital dream
couldn't help how I felt so alone
till I found your face on my phone
it was midnight my time
we were wasted and online
it's how we play modern love
it makes it hard to fuck it up
If you got close to me, closer than through this screen
standing eye to eye, would it be true in real life?
Would it be true?
Fell asleep in the light of our blue dream
felt nice to hear you breathe
in the end we press escape
but I wanted to stay
It could mean so much
cause nothing compares to the weight of blood, the weight of your human touch
maybe I'm wrong to believe
but I see myself surrounded by your things
If you got close to me, closer than through this screen
standing eye to eye, would it be true in real life?
{{ In real life }}
Would it be true?
I could feel your touch
Would it be true?
I could feel your heart
In real life?
I could feel...heart
{{real life}}
If you got close to me, closer than through this screen
standing eye to eye, would it be true in real life?

Memories and Comeback Kid were my first introduction to this band. From then on - I've always gone to the Midnight for easy listening. Waiting for a bus - Standing in line - Going grocery shopping and pretty much everywhere and anywhere. You can listen to this track over and over again and I feel like it doesn't get old.
