Vier Jahre nach dem letzten Longplayer „Reverance“ (2018) geben die Australier PARKWAY DRIVE ihr erstes musikalisches Lebenszeichen von sich. Ob es sich bei `Glitch´ um eine Stand-Alone-Single oder den ersten Vorboten eines kommenden Studioalbums handelt wurde zunächst nicht bekannt.

Lyrics:

I feel a glitch in the cortex

Like a ghost in the shell

Caught the devil playing mind tricks

I feel the dread close in like the walls of a cell

 

I cannot sleep

I cannot hide

I cannot take

One more night on the dark side of my mind

I close my eyes to sleep, the shadows speak

And they won’t stop when I’m awake

Everything they say would seem

Feeds the fear inside of me

Let it feed the fear inside

Help me take this pain away

Sleep is now my enemy

Now it feeds the fear inside of me

 

The fear inside of me

The fear hit like a shell shock

Body froze like my heart stopped

REM waves got my limbs locked down

but my eyes wide open

Sheer terror manifest before me

 

I cannot sleep

I cannot hide

I cannot take

Living this way on the dark side of my mind

I close my eyes to sleep, the shadows speak

And they won’t stop when I’m awake

Everything they say would seem

Feeds the fear inside of me

Let it feed the fear inside

Help me take this pain away

Sleep is now my enemy

Now it feeds the fear inside of me

 

Sleep paralysis

Let me out, let me out

Let me out, let me out, let me out, let me out

Let me out, let me out, let me out

Let me the fuck out

Everything they say would seem

Feeds the fear inside of me

Let it feed the fear inside

Help me take this pain away

Sleep is now my enemy

Now it feeds the fear inside of me

It’s the fear inside of me

 

I cannot sleep

I cannot hide

I cannot take

One more night on the dark side of my mind.
