It seemed so simple But now it’s so complex Well, I received your signal And we know what comes next You’ve got the look You’ve got me on your hook You’ve got me running You’ve got me running to you You’ve got the look You’ve got me on your hook You’ve got me running You’ve got me running to you You give me the freedom To find out who I am You just gave me a reason To make a new life plan You’ve got the look You’ve got me on your hook You’ve got me running You’ve got me running to you You’ve got the look You’ve got me on your hook You’ve got me running You’ve got me running to you (Well, I received your signal And we know what comes next) You’ve got the look You’ve got me on your hook You’ve got me running You’ve got me running to you You’ve got the look You’ve got me on your hook You’ve got me running You’ve got me running to you

Five days until we do it all You're not convinced you can go through it all So very careful not to burden me Leaving me happy with my certainty And invitations go to all our friends And all your joy is all pretend Pick the location and we choose the date Reception band, the price per plate And, all this time, you're having second thoughts for separate lives and separate plots Too many issues that we can't resolve It's far too much You call it off I'm ready to throw away all of these things I've saved for you I'm ready to sacrifice something old, something loaned, something new Five months have passed and I'm a mess You're with someone better if I had to guess What mattered most is now a stupid thing And I still can't take off this stupid ring And though I felt like it was meant to be So positive; I couldn't see I'm shedding everything and I'm okay A brand new me for a brand new day I'm ready to throw away all of these things I've saved for you And I'm ready to sacrifice something old, something loaned, something new And the third time feels like the second time And the second time feels like the first time In five years, he'll buy you something wooden while my fears will keep me made of stone Maybe I'll throw out five things I should have kept, but couldn't Leave them lying on the grass outside our home And now I hardly can remember you I've built a life with someone new I'm shedding everything and I'm okay A brand new me for a brand new day I'm ready to throw away all of these things I've saved for you And I'm ready to sacrifice something old, something loaned, something new I'm ready to eliminate all of these things I've saved for you And I've only this offering of something old, something loaned, something new Something old, something loaned, something blue

Walking down the streets Ready for night Ready for the fight Red lights shine bright I'm an angel of the night Half machine Half a dream And now your life is in my stream My circuits going on the loose Mechanical harts Disconnected parts This is where another night starts Hiding in the neon light I see the rain I see the rain Killer instincts hit my brain Walking down the streets ready for night Ready for the fight You You never see me You You never feel me Coming You You never see me you You never feel me Coming Walking down the streets ready for night Ready for the fight Red lights shine bright I'm an angel of the night Half machine half a dream And now your life is in my stream

You and me, watched the sea you and me, were to be How far is infinity You and me, felt so free you and me, had to flee How long is eternity Oh when you stay in silence where can we find all the love we had in mind You and me, had to feel You and me, like its real How far is infinity well, You and me, had a deal You and me, we’d turn the wheel How long is eternity Oh when you stay in silence where can we find all the love we had in mind

Even a stopped clock is right twice a day There’s no time to kill It's hard to believe The masquerade is over Your body next to meL You're crouching in fear and now I'm getting colder You know last night we lost control we always wanted more I can hear the voices calling me a storm is closing in I can feel your presence haunting me all eternity My head is burning I cannot control my mind Blood barely pumping I feel it as cold as ice If I could reach you I would bring you here with me To throw a light on this darkness Es el final Remember to pray to your God before my time has come This is the end Es ist das Ende Es el final I can hear the voices calling me a storm is closing in I can feel your presence haunting me all eternity I can hear the voices calling me a storm is closing in I can feel your presence next to me all eternity

I don’t feel you When you’re alone When I’m alone When you’re alone I don’t feel you When you’re alone When I’m alone I don’t think you understand I don’t think you even care I don’t think you ever wanted me to be with you my dear with you my dear I don’t feel you When you’re alone When I’m alone When you’re alone I don’t feel you When you’re alone When I’m alone I don’t feel You I don’t think you even feel I don’t think you even know I don’t think that our love was meant to be I’m not really sure I’m not really sure I don’t feel you When you’re alone When I’m alone When you’re alone I don’t feel you When you’re alone When I’m alone I don’t feel You I don’t feel you When you’re alone When I’m alone When you’re alone I don’t feel you When you’re alone When I’m alone I don’t feel You

Through the smoke there's a gleam of silver hair Don't get close she'll strangle you with her stare She is dressed in all black looking for one last dance Make it quick make it fast Cause there's no turning back Enough of your distractions The devil is quite the dancer Surrounded by distractions Let's go a little bit faster Eyeliner sharp enough to kill Leather boots to stomp on you at will Cause you're dangerous it's dangerous Come play with us come play with us Were having too much fun Let's go for another run Enough of your distractions The devil is quite the dancer Surrounded by distractions Let's go a little bit faster Enough of your distractions The devil is quite the dancer I've had enough of your distractions Okay Distraction reactions time to pay Distractions satisfaction everyday Distractions cause reactions time to pay Distractions satisfactions everyday Distractions Okay Enough of your distractions The devil is quite the dancer Surrounded by distractions

1984 Can’t get enough of you Giving it all, giving it all ‘Cause Late night, downtown is calling! In the midnight hour we’re passing by Late summer nights we’re falling, into that speechless call and, with an endless dream in the neon lights. City drive - downtown is calling, into the night we’re falling. Warm breeze, stay until the morning light.

We’re waves A tender strait is our womb Pulsates in fluctuation Struggling with blessing The river will point toward the source Dear Maker We collected so many glooms Shiver with our fates Inescapable undulations give us a thin trail What will lie ahead Dawn or end? Crash and soar I’ll know To live Whirling drops shine And blend with coincidences And I’ll know To live Hearing over again Inner Sounds Already it’s our being Anytime

You're walking you're walking And the zombie he could easily overcome You're looking right behind you and you know he's there You know it and he knows better You're talking you're talking And the zombie he could easily understand You're talking to a dead man and you know he’ll care Your words sound like a long prayer Breathe His cold hands won’t touch you, now Breathe He's getting more distant, now He will never see through you Your dreams Were rather peculiar Even simply look At you He's calling, He's calling Now the junkie he could easily overdose Craving for attention that has led nowhere His words sound like a long prayer He's falling, he's falling Now the junkie he could easily disappear Sinking in deep sorrow with no love to share He knows it and you know better Breathe His cold hands won’t touch you, now Breathe He's getting more distant, now He will never see through you Your dreams Were rather peculiar Even simply look At you

under grey skies the nights stretch on forever and there are no stars left to light the way feeling so alone separate from any comfort as the lights shine in rows and rows of cold empty houses if we heal the wounds, erase all the damage who do we become? what remains of us? it's hard to understand the hurt keeps coming back just when you feel on stable ground it all falls down again I wish there was a way to pull you from this darkness and make you believe you won't be hurt again if we heal the wounds, erase all the damage who do we become? what remains of us? what's left underneath these sorrows?

Love & dust To the radio star A telegram sent to a nearby car Footsteps heard from all directions The people need endless seduction When you’re an instant hit Let go of your innocence When you’re an instant hit Well done, you’re infamous Numb luxuries and a uniform Infiltrate youth with chloroform But I remember to draw the line I remember a life of crime When you’re an instant hit Let go of your innocence When you’re an instant hit Well done, you’re infamous Bright flashing lights and the camera man While there’s no future for your synth pop band You think you have the final blow Until you’re left unravelled 24 hours ago When you’re an instant hit Let go of your innocence When you’re an instant hit Well done, you’re infamous

I waited with pulsating breath I had all this time To arrive and realize As the lights go down I grapple with every breath Paralyzed with dread Staring down the road Looking back I feel alive With memories Come and gone Taking hold Of time I feel alive Memories Cold and warm Wrapping me In time There's a cold stir in the air Icicles forming Every breath I draw in As the lights go down I don't wanna waste my time Wait for time Staring down the road Looking back I feel alive With memories Come and gone Taking hold Of time I feel alive Memories Cold and warm Wrapping me In time Looking back I feel your face Closing in on mine As the lights go down Grappling with time Every breath I take I feel alive With memories Come and gone Taking hold Of time I feel alive Memories Cold and warm Wrapping me In time Alive Alive Alive

Cuz' we gave too many pieces of our hearts Of our hearts Shorter days And longer nights Trapped in a daze With no respite You can try But it will never heal the same There's nothing left to do You got nothing to prove So now it's time to move Dance! [x2] Though the pain will fade Memories remain Extinguishing your fire But actions can't correct So it's better to forget Our broken-hearted trials 'Cuz we gave too many pieces of our hearts Of our hearts 'Cuz we gave too many pieces of our hearts [x2]

Talk to me Sensed you in my dreams again I recognized your voice Talk to me Distract me from reality I’d rather hear your voice Talk to me Spy my admiration by your skyward invitation Have mercy, this is no place for me No rules of engagement, fill me up with stimulation Wanna see, what you have in mind for me Pleading you, beam me up and pull me through Across the stars, a world brand-new Makes my consciousness go blind Burning out, take me for another round Bend the rules, I’m begging you Let the galaxy run wild Talk to me Depending on your presence, dear It’s all I’m craving now Talk to me I know they won’t approve of us A stranger, is all they’ll ever fear Spy my admiration by your skyward invitation Have mercy, this is no place for me What’s our destination? Fill me up with stimulation Wanna see, what you have in mind for me Pleading you, beam me up and pull me through Across the stars, a world brand-new Makes my consciousness go blind Burning out, take me for another round Bend the rules, I’m begging you Let the galaxy run wild Burning out, take me for another round Bend the rules, I’m begging you Let the galaxy run wild Pleading you, beam me up and pull me through Across the stars, a world brand-new Makes my consciousness go blind Burning out, take me for another round Bend the rules, I’m begging you Let the galaxy run wild Pleading you, beam me up and pull me through Across the stars, a world brand-new Makes my consciousness go blind Burning out, take me for another round Bend the rules, I’m begging you Let the galaxy run wild

Up and coming urban properties Stainless steel and granite luxuries Artist lifestyle seems to speak to me And I buy what I deserve Coming home to hip amenities Gastropubs brew down the street from me Satisfy my refined tendencies The gentry life or so I’ve heard Steel and glass ascends Past rows of cardboard beds I love paying more For this fine place, this fine place, Never mind the poor Please hide your face, hide your face I love to ignore Pathetic states of some sad fate Let's just all enjoy the sunlit shores, the sunlit shores. Let's just all enjoy the sunlit shores Private spaces filled with luxury Vintage shops sell authenticity Rusty carts, please don’t get close to me I don’t have cash, just have my card Steel and glass ascends Past rows of cardboard beds I love paying more For this fine place, this fine place, Never mind the poor Please hide your face, hide your face I love to ignore Pathetic states of some sad fate Let's just all enjoy the sunlit shores, the sunlit shores. Let's just all enjoy the sunlit shores It’s a free country, but you’re not free to live here now It’s a free country, but you’re not free to live here now It’s a free country, but you’re not free to live here now It’s a free country, but you’re not free to live here now I love paying more For this fine place, this fine place, Never mind the poor Please hide your face, hide your face I love to ignore Pathetic states of some sad fate Let's just all enjoy the sunlit shores, the sunlit shores. Let's just all enjoy the sunlit shores

You can choose, You can choose not to be here You can put an end to this Unrestrained Unless you do, unless you do Take it on I will have my time with your mind You Are Mine Close your eyes Close your eyes Close your eyes Close your eyes Close your eyes, open your eye Take it on You are captured, you are free Unrestrained Fall back, to unknown Take it on Be rewarded, be rewarded You Are Mine Take it on Take it on Take it on Take it on Take it on I will have my time with your mind You Are Mine I know it’s done, and time is out Come join me, some other time A white horse will take you home Protected by the red sun You are mine.

I'm an airborne disease Fulfilling your wish Of oblivion, of oblivion I'm finding my way Timing is everything Meridian, meridian Do I see you Falling for me Do I see you Falling Following every rule Forgiving all the fools Equilibrium, equilibrum Do I see you Falling for me Do I see you Falling Theres not much to say To break the spell To spell your name Unmask yourself Uncover your face Make me confused Make me feel dazed For always Do I see you Falling for me Do I see you Falling Unmask yourself Uncover your face Make me confused Make me feel dazed For always

You put me away so easily I keep on telling you but you don’t believe me Unbreakable, unshakeable I’m neither of those things, I’m fallible How did you grow to be this way? When I get old will you throw me away? I suppose nothing more was ever known We were born too late for our love to grow I’m a girl not a machine I’ve got a heart and soul, I've got a memory Sometimes I break down easily I’m just hoping for someone who can fix me I’m a girl not a machine I’m never gonna be perfect, you see? I’m a girl not a machine I’m just hoping for something to believe My heart's been breaking for too long Flesh and blood, it's only word and song Have you been waiting for a droid? The hole's too big, too great a void Pour it all out, do it again No happiness without satisfaction I feel like I’m living in another space You don’t see me, you’re looking through my face I’m a girl not a machine I’ve got a heart and soul, I've got a memory Sometimes I break down easily I’m just hoping for someone who can fix me I’m a girl not a machine I’m never gonna be perfect, you see? I’m a girl not a machine I’m just hoping for something to believe

about

Snappy synth pop songs

It took more than half a year until we had collected our minimum number of 15 songs for the compilation. In the last week, another 5 strong songs have been added. Well, these are things you can't plan. What you can always count on is that on the ninth edition of our official compilation 'Undead And Open-Minded' you will again find some snappy synth pop and genre similar songs.

Also on Volume 9 of our compilation we offer you a fantastic and diversified variety of high-quality songs from the music genres synth pop, synthwave, dark wave, dark pop, electro pop, new wave and electroclash. I celebrate our opener 'The Look' by the US band 'Pattern 20' because it's beautiful old school synth pop. As well as the song 'You And Me' by 'Split Vision' who have featured on our previous Electrozombies compilations and the And One tribute 'Anode (An Electrozombies tribute to And One)'.

A Björk-like song with the vibes of the early 90s is provided by 'Roca.' with the song 'Vibra'. If you love the electroclash of the early 2000s and have always wondered what it sounds like when you mix in dark wave influences, then the song 'Hyperkinetic' by 'Graveyard Gossip' will satisfy your curiosity. Since we are known to be very selective for our compilations, I don't have to explicitly mention that the rest of the songs are absolutely worth listening to and gorgeous.
