I'm On Fire 04:17

Against the wall, I’m not ready to show my face Another shot, I’m running hot with every taste Runs through my fingers Across my chest Every extremity Is possessed Runs through my fingers Across my chest Every extremity Is possessed I’m on fire Indestructible I’m on fire Untouchable A human volcano, a flesh inferno with a burning crown I’m on fire And then the fire burns out I close my eyes as I get ready to unload Just another sip and I’ll lose it and I explode Runs through my fingers Across my chest Every extremity Is possessed Runs through my fingers Across my chest Every extremity Is possessed I’m on fire Indestructible I’m on fire Untouchable A human volcano, a flesh inferno with a burning crown I’m on fire And then the fire burns out I’m on fire Indestructible I’m on fire Untouchable A human volcano, a flesh inferno with a burning crown I’m on fire And then the fire burns out

Cry Wolf 04:08

Goddamn you love to be offended goddamn I think you love to cry you’re so addicted to your outrage and you just love to roll your eyes roll your eyes when the sky is finally falling the Devil comes a calling  there’s no one left to cry wolf there’s no one left to cry wolf when we're going down in flames   is there someone we'll find to blame there’s no one left to cry wolf there’s no one left to cry wolf to Oh man, I’m always left unfriended  This whole plan is just eye for an eye You ban, belittle, and condemn it, The straw man you love to vilify. you’re so addicted to your outrage and every word’s a hangin crime so hang me when the sky is finally falling the Devil comes a calling there’s no one left to cry wolf there’s no one left to cry wolf when we're going down in flames   is there someone we'll find to blame there’s no one left to cry wolf there’s no one left to cry wolf to far past what we expected our lives just too dissected two tracks running parallel and disconnected in a system so infected reality subjected to a groupthink that we should have just rejected. when the sky is finally falling the Devil comes a calling there’s no one left to cry wolf there’s no one left to cry wolf when we're going down in flames   is there someone we'll find to blame there’s no one left to cry wolf there’s no one left to cry wolf to when the sky is finally falling the Devil comes a calling there’s no one left to cry wolf there’s no one left to cry wolf when we're going down in flames   is there someone we'll find to blame there’s no one left to cry wolf there’s no one left to cry wolf to

Thunderbird 03:34
lyrics

From the four winds I’m flying In your visions I’m fighting From the mountain you might hear my voice in the storm (Voice in the storm) The serpent rises I will attack Terror in the skies I’ll be back From the Western dusk you'll see my spark in the night (Spark in the night) The battle’s harbinger The spirit’s messenger The cloudburst in my eye To honor the fallen and punish evil men I am here to break the sky You can crush my bones and you can pound my head Take me so far from home and just leave me for dead But when I spread my wings with the lightning burn I am the flood and fire The Thunderbird A force of nature Let the rain fall When there's danger I hear the call On the horizon you might see my wings in the storm (Wings of the storm) The battle’s harbinger The spirit’s messenger The cloudburst in my eye To honor the fallen and punish evil men I am here to break the sky You can crush my bones and you can pound my head Take me so far from home and just leave me for dead But when I spread my wings with the lightning burn I am the flood and fire The Thunderbird The battle’s harbinger The spirit’s messenger The cloudburst in my eye To honor the fallen and punish evil men I am here to break the sky You can crush my bones and you can pound my head Take me so far from home and just leave me for dead But when I spread my wings with the lightning burn I am the flood and fire The Thunderbird

Everything They Told Us Is A Lie 04:05
lyrics

Welcome to the simulation Your inputs are controlled A bootheel on your imagination And a fist around your soul They're fighting in the streets and They are battling for our minds And everything they told us is a lie Your trust is a weapon Pointed right between your eyes And all of your questions Are just heresies in disguise. A man's gotta know his place He means nothing to the hive And everything they told us is a lie And history Will keep on being redefined To keep us all confused and blind What's real is only in your mind And all you see Has been maliciously designed Truth is impossible to find What's real is only in your mind Don't bother to attempt To break out of your caste You're part of the experiment To wipe away the past The lessons of the generations Are cultural appropriations And everything they told us is a lie And history Will keep on being redefined To keep us all confused and blind What's real is only in your mind And all you see Has been maliciously designed Truth is impossible to find What's real is only in your mind And memory Has been completely falsified Consciousness will be confined What's real is only in your mind Clock strikes thirteen And every fact is vilified A brave new world for humankind What's real is only in your mind And everything they told us is a lie Everything they told us is a lie Everything they told us is a lie Everything they told us is a lie

If I could talk to those I lost again to try and make amends among the graves Some kinda wiretap from far beyond the map somehow these words get trapped between the waves Screaming in the darkness broadcasting our callsign hoping to break though reality a mechanical catharsis tuned in from the other side I heard you on the strangest frequency Finding patterns in the static is automatic with all these toys sufficiently advanced technology is just necromancy with some white noise Screaming in the darkness broadcasting our callsign hoping to break though reality a mechanical catharsis tuned in from the other side I heard you on the strangest frequency An antenna in the tomb To do what Tesla longed to do Are you coming through on my spirit phone If I could only flick a switch on an electro Endor Witch, can we find the pitch and hear you through the gloam. I heard you on the strangest frequency I heard you on the strangest frequency

Spend The Night 03:42

I’ll spend the night in a killer's bed Gonna spend some time in her head Well I’m here to talk to the dead And I’ll spend the night I’ll spend the night in a murder scene Hoping some rubs off on me Well I don’t get queasy And I’ll spend the night Is it a fear I want to face Is it the memory of the chaste Is it the blood I want to taste I just don’t know Is it a lust for the profane Or a dream of the insane Well we just can’t explain And we’ll spend the night I’ll spend the night on a battlefield Where the wounds never healed We’ll see what the worms reveal When I spend the night I’ll spend the night with a gallows pole In my hand, Charon’s obol I’ll sleep in a six foot hole And I’ll spend the night Is it a fear I want to face Is it the memory of the chaste Is it the blood I want to taste I just don’t know Is it a lust for the profane Or the dream of the insane Well we just can’t explain And we’ll spend the night Oh we just can’t explain And we’ll spend the night No we just can’t explain So we’ll spend the night

I don’t want to be a ghost I just want to be a man I don’t want to hear my friends When I cannot talk to them I’ll be right behind the wall And I’ll wait for you to call my name I used to want to come back as a spirit, And be in some romantic tragedy I’d be Patrick Swayze and you would be my sweet Demi But when I talked you couldn’t hear it If I materialized you couldn’t see How I could be happy without some sexy pottery If we can’t be together Who wants to live forever When you’re just looking right through me If I will always be lonely There’s no point in eternity when I can see you looking right through me I don’t want to be a ghost I just want to be a man I don’t want to hear my friends When I cannot talk to them I’ll be right behind the wall And I’ll wait for you to call my name If I walked the earth as a phantom I’d haunt every place we used to go But what would I do with all these strangers in our home And if every time I showed was random  And I was just an orb in some photos I’d rather be six feet beneath an old gravestone What’s the point of a soul If there’s no one to make you whole A spectral spectator that’s bored with immortality If we can’t be together Who wants to live forever When you’re just looking right through me If I will always be lonely There’s no point in eternity when I can see you looking right through me I’ll just go towards the light I’ll just go towards the light I’ll just go towards the light If I can’t see you tonight  Then I’ll just go towards the light If we can’t make things right Then I’ll just go towards the light  If I’m out of your sight  I’ll just go towards the light  There’s no reason to fight  I’ll just go towards the light  What’s the point of a soul If there’s no one to make you whole A spectral spectator that’s bored with immortality If we can’t be together Who wants to live forever When you’re just looking right through me If I will always be lonely There’s no point in eternity when I can see you looking right through me If we can’t be together Who wants to live forever When you’re just looking right through me If I will always be lonely There’s no point in eternity when I can see you looking right through me I don’t want to be a ghost I just want to be a man I don’t want to hear my friends When I cannot talk to them I’ll be right behind the wall And I’ll wait for you to call my name

Goodbye Norma Jean You should've known to stay away If you think that Hollywood is tough, you should meet the CIA A couple pills and a couple drinks, we know just what they'll do 5:25 August 5th 1962 Lancer wants to know the truth Pillow talk is treachery Beaten at the Bay of Pigs An embarrassing defeat And he's shooting for the moon But it's all just a smokescreen Dear Diary, What's wrong with me Slept with another Kennedy Dear Diary, So why tell me There's some kind of conspiracy A marital transgression A UFO confession Dear Diary Can you save me I'm just a liability A crash in the desert Some creatures from long ways Little people from beyond Gentlemen prefer the greys Flying saucer tech I heard that there's a cover up You know these Massachussetts boys Can't keep their rich mouths shut Lancer wants to know the truth Pillow talk is treachery Beaten at the Bay of Pigs An embarrassing defeat And he's shooting for the moon, But you know it’s a smokescreen.

The longer it goes It just gets worse Til the noise is so loud Your ears are going to burst My mind won't leave me alone Always pushing beneath the bone The more you watch The hotter it gets Until the water boils and Your skin is turning red My mind won't leave me alone Always pushing beneath the bone The tighter you squeeze The more it slips A fleeting glimpse of something Leached out of your grip My mind won't leave me alone Always pushing beneath the bone The longer it goes It just gets worse Til the noise is so loud Your ears are going to burst My mind won't leave me alone Always pushing beneath the bone You're not waiting for a moment You're not waiting for a sign Just trust that You will know when it is Time won’t leave me alone Always pushing beneath the bone You’re not waiting for a moment You’re not waiting for a sign Just trust that you will know when it is time

I did my best to get along I was so scared of being wrong Well my head needed a swift kick Agnostics and skeptics Don’t let the power pull your strings You need to question everything  I don’t need to be redeemed We have the right to choose what we believe And all you need is in yourself  Blow up the past and make it quick God Bless The Heretics Yeah we’re so scared to rock the boat You might pick wrong and they’ll cut your throat  Do you dare be a polemicist  Empiricist or materialist Don’t let the power pull your strings You need to question everything  I don’t need to be redeemed We have the right to choose what we believe And all you need is in yourself  Blow up the past and make it quick God Bless The Heretics Don't let the power pull Don't let the powerful Don't let the power pull Don't let the powerful Don't let the power pull your strings You need to question everything I don’t need to be redeemed We have the right to choose what we believe And all you need is in yourself  Blow up the past and make it quick God Bless The Heretics And I don’t need to be redeemed We have the right to choose what we believe And all you need is in yourself  Blow up the past and make it quick God Bless The Heretics

I got so far to go It feels like the road never ends It’s just me and my shadow And it won't stop til I am dead I'm the searching kind With a curious mind And I will say it all with a grin If I can be so bold You can call me cold and We'll be seeing you again So keep on walking under The lights that dance around the sky Through the rain and through the thunder Trying to find a little sunshine I'm the searching kind With a curious mind And I will say it all with a grin If I can be so bold You can call me cold and We'll be seeing you again Flesh and blood inside this shell Broken smiles and whispered wings And when red eyes fly right of Hell I’m always a call away I'm the searching kind With a curious mind And I will say it all with a grin If I can be so bold you can call me cold and We'll be seeing you again Seeing you again We’ll be seeing you again We’ll be seeing you again We’ll be seeing you again

Inside the web It's all alive Inside the web We're all aligned From the rocks to the trees the earth and the seas, machines and the breeze, our love and disease It's the wifi you see with your mind's eye It's the wave in the air, our line in the sky I can feel you Always with me I can hear you When I cannot see From the whisper in my ear To the hair upon my neck I know you're somewhere out there Inside the web It's not a trap Inside the web Is our wiretap From the land to the snows, the worms and embryos, our pain and shadows, the thorns and the rose It's the radar love that we dreamt of A Hidden network we are all part of I can feel you Always with me I can hear you When I cannot see From the whisper in my ear To the hair upon my neck I know you're somewhere out there Inside the web I can feel you Always with me I can hear you When I cannot see From the whisper in my ear To the hair upon my neck I know you're somewhere out there Inside the web I can feel you Always with me I can hear you Even when I cannot see From the whisper in my ear To the hair upon my neck I know you're somewhere out there Inside the web Oh I know you’re somewhere out there Inside the web Oh I know you’re somewhere out there

about

The band started recording "The Strangest Frequency" before the pandemic, and while the wordwide shutdown might have put their official studio time on hold, they didn't let being stuck at home slow them down. Throughout 2020 and 2021, their "Thirsty Thursday" and "Paranormal Tuesday" livestreams reached thousands of hungry music fans with no place to go. The band was able to record over 50 music videos from home, everyone putting their individual pieces in and then editing them together into a "live" video with tracks ranging from Sunspot originals to ridiculous covers like "Eye of the Tiger" or "Santa Baby". During this process, they kept writing and eventually finished recording the twelve songs that would form "The Strangest Frequency".
