Everything Everything - Cold Reactor (Official Video)

// LYRICS //
So we built the mountain
By digging an almighty hole
And on our backs we carried every rock and stone

But now the hole is deeper
Than anybody ever planned
And we’re blocking out the sun

I believe in life and terror
You believe in killing time
By the fingertips I’m hanging on

Sorry Satan
But I can’t do this evil on my own
I haven't left the house in nearly 30 thousand
Days I sent you
The image of a little yellow face
To tell you that I’m sad about the emptiness that’s
All around me
And I can't stop the ringing in your ears
When everything we love becomes a picture of a
Simulation
It wakes me in the middle of the night
I love you like an atom bomb but I’ve become a
Cold reactor

So dark the supermarket
Some of us stayed in the pit
Because it felt so comfortable to dwell below

We made the mountain bigger
Though we had forgotten why
It’s a dream I’m in with you

In the night the sword is hanging
Far above the head of man
Can you see the steel is glittering?

Sorry Satan
But I can’t do this evil on my own
I haven't left the house in nearly 30 thousand
Days I sent you
The image of a little yellow face
To tell you that i’m sad about the emptiness that’s
All around me
And I can't stop the ringing in your ears
When everything we love becomes a picture of a
Simulation
It wakes me in the middle of the night
I love you like an atom bomb but I’ve become a
Cold reactor
And maybe I’ll go missing in the rain
If god is in the mountain he won’t answer me a
Single question
Like “why does everybody feel the same?”
The slow degeneration and the crying out Oh
Lord have mercy
Just look into my jet-electric eyes
And see a blue reflection of a world inside a
Black dimension
It wakes me in the middle of the night
I love you like an atom bomb but I’ve become a
Cold reactor

Now you’re gonna see what’s underneath

I’m sorry Satan

And I can't stop the ringing in your ears
When everything we love becomes a picture of a
Simulation
It wakes me in the middle of the night
I love you like an atom bomb but I’ve become a
Cold reactor

[radringtail]

The subtle ferocity of “like why does everybody feel the same” is perfect.

[UpIsNotJump]

So great!! I think even better than Bad Friday as a first single

[EdwardSturdy]

They're just the best band ever aren't they

[RamenDenominator]

I couldn't make out the lyrics live, but now I am catching all the references to modern online socialization. EE is always making meaningful art. I couldn't love this band any harder.

[okok...ok.]

WE MAKIN IT OUT THE MOUNTAIN WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥

[eskildschroll-fleischer]

I’ve listened so much to this song on the stereo during my wifes pregnancy that my baby boy now falls to sleep to Cold Reactor. I can tell he’ll be a fan for life.

[keithcastellano]

This is best band of the last 20 years. So underrated! I love this song!

[gamebox]

Just discovered this band by Radio 1 playing this song while i was driving, i literally had to stop and use snapchat to find the name, i don't know what it is about this song and I'm not an emotional person at all but that chorus resonates with me like no other song. everyone has a different taste in music, but this is my perfection, the melody, lyrics and modern feel with the subtle use of the xylophone (or similar instrument) mastered beautifully with extremely great vocals. good job guys have truly created a masterpiece and good luck though 2024.

[callum]

Another amazing track. Possibly the most underrated band in existence at this point, consistently good since their first album.

[yaoibookclub]

Even when they change their sound to be more pop (which I don’t really care for I’m more of a rock guy) EE’s lyricism always keeps me coming back for more. Words that make me grateful I can understand English

[jpraciunas]

& so begins the cycle of obsessing over every new single until the album's release, and then obsessing over the album for the rest of my days.

[whitestripe]

That chorus just keeps running in my head its so good

[lilam]

The fuckin lyrics are SO complex and layers. I love them so much. Easily my favorite song rn.

[robertgreenaway]

From seeing these guys when I used to get home from school and was obsessed with them. That was when I was 16. Im 35 now and they are without doubt the best band I’ve ever been blessed with. Lucky to see them at ally Pally a few years back. Today I just received my personally signed mountain head album and I’m even more blessed than I was all those years ago! Big love. Forever a E E fan

[S.Rank_react_dev]

The group that makes me consistently cry

[ChaoticLaughter]

The writing here feals closer to get to heaven which is perfect imo, thanks for the song! Keep it up!

[lucasfogaca]

I regret listening to this song yesterday, 3 hours after launch. I was tired and didn't have the audio setup this band deserves. I found it ok, as for EE never really missed, but nothing to get thrilled to.
Today, set up my speakers and played the song again, paying close attention to the details.
So, it IS a masterpiece. I AM thrilled for the album. Damn, I love this band

[Daniel-ijeu]

how is it possible that they've never released a bad song. every single one goes so hard and connects to me so deeply.

[TCNHC]

My favorite band by far for the last 10 plus years. I had the immense pleasure to see them live in Dublin. What an explosive night!
