lyrics

I'm unsure of something
I want to know
Is this your touch I'm sensing?
It's getting strong
Forgetting what I know
Don't say I told you so
Maybe I'm just too human
To let it go

Let me lead you to the future
I'll be yours and you'll be futile
Never had this much power in my hands

Is it because of the street lights
(There's just no way of knowing)
Hidden behind the skyline
(There's just no way of knowing)
Million colors wrapped around
Stars are falling to the ground
Am I still full of potential
(There's just one way to find out)
With all my life in suspension
(There's just one way to find out)
Wake me up before it ends
I can't believe it's all we have

Perfectly unironic
The lights will fade
Correctly inadvertent
Our beds are made

Tucked away cause they say we should plan it better
Rest assured it's obscure just enough to fit in
Melodies played with ease are the ones we follow
Not too fast, we should test if the water's shallow

Is it because of the street lights
Hidden behind the skyline
Million colors wrapped around
Stars are falling to the ground
Am I still full of potential
With all my life in suspension
Wake me up before it ends
I can't believe it's all we have

Is it because of the street lights
(There's just no way of knowing)
Hidden behind the skyline
(There's just no way of knowing)
Million colors wrapped around
Stars are falling to the ground
Am I still full of potential
(There's just one way to find out)
With all my life in suspension
(There's just one way to find out)
Wake me up before it ends
I can't believe it's all we have

about

Hey Karen image

Hey Karen Rotterdam, Netherlands

Hey Karen is an alias for Bartek Urban, who creates electronica, synthpop, and industrial - the stuff that both melts your heart and your brain.
Home recordings and lo-fi aesthetic aren't necessarily a bad thing, since he believes the feeling is more important. A full scope of that feeling can be seen in his audiovisual live shows, which he regularly performs since 2011. ... more
