about

A melancholic electro-dream pop gem," Grey Wide World (or GWW, as we like to call the song) is an electrifying fusion of dream pop, synthpop, and electropop. It offers a unique experience of melancholy that you could dance to (if you wanted) – or at least tap your foot to. We went for a vibrant, dreamy yet punchy sound to depict a world that is fundamentally sorrowful, leaving you with a sense of solitude even in a crowd.

The video incorporates captivating footage from a remarkable vintage boutique in Stockholm named POP Stockholm—an absolute must-visit for any vintage clothing enthusiast, and a gem of a place. ^-^

lyrics

I’ll be shooting
Till I’ll kill my name
The wants, the fears
The pain I planned

I’ll die with
All the shooting highs
With grey wide world
Between my thighs

The shadow shot
The shadow dies
I can hear it
It’s buzzing like flies

Can you hear it?
I know you can
I’ll be shooting
All my growing pains

Running from the noisy while
I can’t, I don’t believe it this time
I should stay, I should just stay and smile
I simply can’t, I’ll fire a shot in the dark

Running from you all the time
I can’t, I don’t believe this time
I should stay, I should just stay and smile
I simply can’t, I’ll fire a shot in the dark

I’ll fire a shot in the dark

Look at me
The dried-out blotches
The ace of spades
When no one watches

Let me die with
All my shooting highs
With grey wide world
Clouding my eyes

Running from the noisy while
I can’t, I don’t believe it this time
I should stay, I should just stay and smile
I simply can’t, I’ll fire a shot in the dark

Running from you all the time
I can’t, I don’t believe this time
I should stay, I should just stay and smile
I simply can’t, I’ll fire a shot in the dark

I’ll fire a shot in the dark
I should just stay and smile
In the dark
I should just stay and smile
In the dark
I should just stay and smile
