Canadian cold wave/post-punk/synth pop/new wave band Actors have revealed their new single “Dead Inside“, accompanied by a music video.
The song is out now through Artoffact Records and follows their single “In Real Life“ released in May. Grab it here.
Speaking about it, banleader Jason Corbett says: “The recent loss of several friends and the realization of how finite our time is really had an effect on me over the past few months. That dark and sometimes anxious emotion permeates my music with ACTORS. The new single just comes right out and says it.”

ACTORS “Dead Inside” Lyrics:
Coup de grace – Hear it come
Malicious and unkind
There’s no escape – It’s ruin by design
Come closer – Take my hand
Show me how to feel
a faded photograph – is this real
Wait Now – Hear the Sound
You want inside – There’s nowhere left to hide
So open wide
Find a way to keep your mouth shut
Dead on the Inside (x2)
All I see – a pixelated screen
waiting here alone
No protection – No control
Coup de grace – here it come
Secrets never told
Left out in the rain – out there in the cold
Wait Now – Hear the Sound
You want inside – There’s nowhere left to hide
So open wide
Find a way to keep your mouth shut
Dead on the Inside (x2)
Don’t look down (x2)
