***LYRICS***
The wires in the stream
From rubble to my dream
I worry in my sleep
Rococo curves you soothe me

To live inside the frame
And forget everything
A swing inside a dream
And all theyll do is scream

Come back to float away
A few more inches of rain
I worry in my sleep
Rococo curves don’t leave me

To live inside the frame
And forget everything
A swing inside a dream
And all they'll do is scream

We’re waking up
To straight lines
We float away
Bye bye

Whatever's happening in the UK music scene right now, I'm totally here for it.

[joedynasty]

Crazy how they recorded this entire thing in one take

[alezf]

This is probably my most anticipated record of this year so far

[condimentking]

Black Country, New Road and black midi took the cake last year.

This year It's up to you Squid guys. This first single absolutely slaps.

[mattdrummond]

Best Squid song yet. Gets so much better after each listen!

[WiloPolis]

UK's crank wave scene just keeps on delivering. This is like a proggy take on post-punk, absolutely love it

[Mandyque]

Flowing from a Sonic Youthesque vocal performance into Kyussian guitars is something I'm definitely here for.

[vanerramos_]

This is absolutely genius! This track is perfect for disconnecting the brain to reconnect to everything else.

[JPTQJR]

Fantastic lead single for O Monolith
Looking forward for Squid's sophomore record

[xanist]

She Swing on my Squid till I (In a Dream)

[chewyc]

Going to see them tonight in Chicago!!!!

[t.c.bramblett]

Reminds me so much of Dismemberment Plan but cranked up to a modern angst level. I adore it

[sangresolida]

We've been musically inked, and I love it.

[miguel-vocb]

Squid always delivers peak music and the music videos are also so damn perfect <3

[virtuallyunknownn]

i like how this music video is just humans doing humanly things. nothing too out of the ordinary, just ordinary people doing ordinary things

[NickGeo]

Wasn't sure initially, but this song really grew on me

[cp]

There's a serious, progressive maturation going on in this band, and this is an excellent result. The first album was killer; the second will be more so. Really excited about the new album.

[jocular]

I see reindeer. I hear we wish you a merry Christmas. Love and respect.

[lunchmeat]

This song seriously captures an energy unlike anything else I’ve heard. Im so damn excited for this new album, something tells me it’s gonna be something real special. Bright green field was great, this song gives me hope for something genuinely amazing. Squid has at the very least proven that they can stand with and even above black Midi and BCNR.

[freedomspeck]

I Havent been so fascinated by such harmonious cacophony since the microphones.
