Lyrics:
I'm sick of spending all these days
Looking for some nepenthe,
Like atelophobic and solivagant.
How could I believe in magic
When we all feel so alone
And only try to survive for redamancy ?

I'm pacing downtown everynight
And everyone's giving advice
But no one really seems to give a shit.
So who's gonna...
...Who's gonna be my catharsis
And get me outside of my head
When I'm one breath away from drowning ?

Guess I been wasting time as it's wasting me,
Nicotine in the veins,
A thousand wishes hanging on my lip tips.
How could I believe in magic
When we are all so alone
And only try to survive all the things we feel ?

Surfing on liberosis,
Don't wanna know if I still bleed
Just wanna feel like dust in the winds.
Let me drown in velleities,
Don't wanna know if I still breathe,
Just wanna feel the light on my face.

No one will ever try to break the silence
When it's burning out my conscience,
When it's running every inch of my mind.

Here, even just to feel is complex,
But I wanna try and dare,
Take a moment to admire the world.

Nepenthe- “a fictional medicine for sorrow. A ‘drug of forgetfulness’”

Ateliphobic- “the fear of not doing something right, or of not being good enough”

Solivagant- “a lone wanderer”

Redamancy-“the act of loving in return”

Liberosis-“longing for liberty, an ache to let things go”

Velleities-“a slight wish, a wish you aren’t working to make true”

Credits go to the internet and not my massive vocabulary

[dabertoldi]

Its crazy that Camille is now the lead singer! What a cicle, lets gooo

[MatthewA]

Never used a dictionary so much for a song. +1 to intelligence

[gogoikai]

from C'est La Vie to turn it up. Extremely proud and happy for Camille. Onwards you go !!

[YouthEnergy]

This song improved my vocabulary tenfold lol.

Nepenthes = Drug to relieve pain
Atelophobia = Fear of doing something wrong, or not good enough
Solivagant = The act of wandering alone (amazing word that I never knew existed)
Redamancy = Loving someone in return.
Liberosis = Longing for liberty, wanting to let something go.
Velleities (Velleity) = Wishing for something, but not enough to take action

For several times, one of my best friends recommended this band for me, but I haven't paid enough attention to it.
He used to say that Novelists was the band of his life and always posted Instagram stories of the sunset view from the room we used to work, with Novelists songs in the background... but I haven't paid enough attention to it.
2 months ago, he sent me this music, but I was in a shitty day and i haven't paid enough attention to it.
Few days later, he went to ICU, for covid treatment, but it was too much for him to handle...
In the day after his passing, scrolling down our messages, I've finally decided to listen to it.
And I've cried. Bitterly. With pain, grief, with repentance, with the feeling of "I wish I could have done more, listen more, help more", and since then, I always listen to this song, remembering all of this.
It's a bittersweet feeling, tbh.
Rest ease, brother. We always will remember you. I'll remember.

Matteo is gonna be hard to replace not only vocally but he was such a good songwriter. All the comments are like I never had to look up so many words the guy was an incredible songwriter which is so rare nowdays.

[forcedentry]

From Matteo to Camille. Seems like everything comes full circle. Excited to see the new music coming

[Poscre]

This song is so relaxing and totally relatable but I Fear it's too short, they should have dropped another solo before the song ended. Even though it has beautiful singing by both Matteo and Camille, I'm really thankful this came out

[jordanroberts]

Welcome, Camille!!! I can't wait to see what more you bring to this great band!!!

[paradigm]

His wording is mind blowing ridiculous. And then he places them into a context that drives straight to your heart, as you close your dictionary. Brilliant. Just
Brilliant.

[ruok-lt]

if theres a song that absolutely needs a final solo this would be it :(

[kalavath]

Novelists are really out there writing some wonderful songs and everyone better listens to them because 2020 is gonna go hard

[crooked_path]

It's crazy how every song they release blow me away like the first time I heard them...this one reminds me a lot of 5:12 AM... Thank you for the beautiful music and for inspiring buying a new guitar and shredding the hell out of it!!! Love from Quebec, Canada..

[PleaseForgiveYourself]

She manifested her spot for sure, go Camille!

[thrash]

I do love the way matteo kept his vocals deeper until the final verse to give such a nice contrast with the featuring singer. A few of the vocal runs you expect to climb suddenly fall and it's beautiful

[xKINGxRCCx]

Love how the guitarists are just chillin relaxing while playing. Really sets the mood and atmosphere of the song

[chriscarlson]

1:55 - 2:19 wtf?? So dreamy and other worldly chill. Beautiful.. all of it is

[robbygless]

I love how bluesy the solos are. This band is quickly becoming one of my favorites

[joes]

Still one of the best songs I have ever heard. Thanks Novelists
