about
"White Noise", the second single from Cocomofo's upcoming album, Cardinal Rose, is a psych-rock, psychological thriller, detailing a descent into madness with full choir performances, squelching synth lines, evocative sax melodies and lead vocals that demand introspection.
lyrics
While he sleeps he cannot eat, he cannot sleep
He forgot to breath
Cause everyday it has to be so different
but in your brain it's still the same
Why should I ever let go?
He says out loud but still so blind
And when should I ever let go?
Maybe tonight it is the right time
So while I see your face on the white wall
Does it always have to be the same
what if we worked on a little change
but you are just so afraid
Of a smile that shows on the white wall
Why do we think so complicated
the more you give the less you take
and the more you will get
So why, I wonder why, I wonder when
Cause I know sometimes it’s hard
But tonight, I will drink, forget your name
But will you ever try (try)
Will you ever try (try)
Will you ever try (try)
oh I wish that you had tried
While he sleeps, he cannot eat, he cannot think
He forgot to dream
Cause everyday it's still the same it did not change
The white noise still rings high in your brain
Why should I ever let go he says out loud but still so blind
When should I ever let go maybe tonight it is the right time
And while I lose my voice in the white noise
Does it always have to be the same
What if we worked on a little change
But you are just so ashamed
Of this life that streams on the white wall
Cause in this game you better be fast
Cause if you click you gonna be last but you are already a little late
So why, I wonder why, I wonder when
But will you ever try (try)
Will you ever try (try)
Will you ever try (try)
oh I wish that you had tried
How can we find ourselves ?
How should we find ourselves ?

Avant-pop group based in Brooklyn, brainchild of an international cast of musicians. Looking back on 70s jazz but with the production and emotion of today's psychedelic pop. Created out of late night jam sessions.
