Los Angeles post punk/coldwave/new wave band Deceits have shared a lyric video for their latest single “Guiding Light“.
Taken from their recent 2-track EP ‘Fate/Light‘. Grab it here.
Guiding Light is a darker German/90’s goth inspired track which is about the search for hope during dark times and takes musical cues from Remain In Silence, The Chameleons, The Danse Society and Mephisto Walz.
The video features footage from Meshes of the Afternoon (1943). Watch it below.
Deceits “Guiding Light” Lyrics:
As seasons change
Days fade to different shades of grey
A tone so blight
These blurred eyes, fade into
A void I, can’t see through
These blurred eyes, they see truths
Reflections, I withdrew
CHORUS: Trying to find the light I was promised from the start
Reach close into the fire, just to fade and fall apart
Trying to find the light I was promised from the start
Reach close into the fire just to fade and fall apart
I fall apart
Though time might change
Life’s dullness feels to stay the same
A tragic light
These blurred eyes, fade into
A void I, can’t see through
These blurred eyes, they see truths
Reflections, I withdrew
Although its pain to feel this way
I’ll hold on, I’ll hold on
This day’s another shade of grey
Repeat Chorus
I will find my guiding light (x3)
To erase the different shades of grey
