about
"ANIMAL” is the first single from the forthcoming album “DENSITY” by Seattle-based electro-synthwave trio SURREALIZED. Written in a remote cabin in the high desert grasslands of the Umatilla Indian Reservation in Oregon, “ANIMAL” is a sonic anthem of the human condition; a calling out of the struggles of societal and cultural conflict, the inspiration of standing up for love and the power of fighting from the heart… embracing our “ANIMAL”. The song conveys a unique futuristic progressive house groove embracing melodic stylings of retro and neo 80’s synth pop creating a landscape that is entirely infectious, unforgettable and timeless.
lyrics
We take the lower road
Drivin' all night til we find a way
Hear it on the radio
That feelin' is high when it's time to play
It's not impossible
Crawl if we might til the light of day
Hear it on the radio-o
I feel alive when you fight (when you fight, when you fight)
Come on and talk to me
Tell me what's on the line
The time is now, your heart is the fire
Your animal inside
We call 'em out, we calling 'em out like an animal
The feeling is all we are
The time is now
The time is ours
Like we've always known, the animal
We take it on the road
Gotta fight like the animal
Hear it on the radio-o-o
I feel alive (feel alive, feel alive, feel alive)
Come on and talk to me
Tell me what's on the line
The time is now, your heart is the fire
Your animal inside
We call 'em out, we calling 'em out like an animal
The feeling is all we are
The time is now
The time is ours
Like we've always known, the animal
