Circa Survive’s new single “Electric Moose” comes from their upcoming EP ‘A Dream About Death’ – out 2/4. Pre-order the EP now at https://RiseRecords.lnk.to/ADreamAboutDeath
“I really love this song. It actually came together after we were finished the writing process. The other songs were sent off to mastering already. This one came together very organically and we loved it so much we had to include it. It’s really unlike anything we’ve written before. The lyrics for it started out as a poem about domestic abuse and someone trapped in a relationship but trying holding onto the thought of how it was before things became violent.” – Anthony Green
LYRICS
Don’t think twice about yourself
You left out some important detail
I would appreciate an explanation
You make it seem like you’re the good guy all the time
Every ear will listen as you stumble
Every ounce of attention gets paid
In the background they’ve all made their minds up
Stage the fight
Don’t lay your hands on me
Don’t lay your hands on me
I want to get my time back
Hold that thought
Hold that thought
Hold that thought
Hold that thought
Drag your fingers in the glass like it makes a difference
Drag your nails across the sand
Realize that it’s just glass
You take advantage of it
You take advantage of it
You take advantage of it every way you can
You take advantage of it
You take advantage of it
You’re the only one who has to know
Wait it out
They’ll always be there to collect
Wait it out
They’ll always show up in the end
Wait it out
We’ll pick up right where we left off
Wait it out
Sink or die
Don’t bet against yourself
Don’t bet against yourself
I wouldn’t let my guard down

Cathartic and perfect expression
I don't understand this but it makes way too much sense some how
Best musicvideo ever only took two dancers
So.. Trainspotting meets illuminati meets ah.. nm. My heart breaks every time he gets back on heroin.
Never understood these modern overly eccentric dancing. Like who can make the weirdest unattractive movement with your body? Shame, kind of ruined the songs for me. Singer and band is always phenomenal. Poor choice in choreography. There's plenty of people out there trying to catch our attention through dancing. This was pretty ugly.
The video ends with the 2 in the exact same position as the beginning. Implying that the abusive cycle will repeat indefinitely.
Anyone else get a "The OA" vibes from the dancing?
According to an official press release, ‘The lyrics for ‘Electric Moose‘ actually started out as a poem that Frontman Anthony Green wrote about domestic abuse, and someone trapped in a relationship but trying to hold onto the thought of how it was before things became violent.’
And now I’m crying. Holy shit. What a song, what a video.
sounds like a printer
I'm not sure what the point of the video is but my interpretation of it is that sex can be the most addictive thing in a toxic relationship. It's like they'd get it on, fight, get it on again and then fight once more but they keep coming back to the same conclusion. The sex must be worth the abuse to them.
Maybe I'm just looking too deeply into it or maybe I'm just straight up wrong but that's the vibe I got from it.
Giving me Radiohead vibes. So glad CC keep pushing their boundaries
Crazy music vid
Because you guys didn’t reserve a local park or a whole hotel to shoot this in, I’m calling it pseudo artistic, and I hate it. How could restrict the writing to a soulless apartment? Freak outa here with this wanna be profound gibberish.
those girls did amazing in this, this whole video with the song just works perfectly.
this video brought me to fucking tears.
This is a pretty powerful video. Going from basically the fucking to fighting and everything between. I think anyone who has been in any sort of destructive relationship gets it.
choreographed dancing will always be cringe. Its not "deep" its not "artistic" its just weird. FAIL. Auto-dislike for being corny af
good song but the video is SOOO cringe
more terrible music from anthony green, the fakest of the fake musicians in history
PURE PERFECTION!!
The temper tantrum scene near the end made me laugh, good song tho
Is this that lesbian dance theory I hear about?
Damn, enough with the arbitrary, cringey dance video's. I always found them to be nauseating.
The vocals in the beginning of the song sound like health, it’s really cool
🤘🔥❤
The most distressed music video I’ve ever seen with such an up beat song. As soon as the lyrics clic it’s even sadder than the first time around
Obsessed . Circa is everything and more right on ! I love dance this song this video so powerful wow !!!
Talk about crying my ass off.
Although I totally respect it, I've never really gotten interpretive dance (if that's even what this is). But knowing what the song is about and having been through an incredibly emotionally abusive marriage, and very recently another brief similar relationship, this really clicked. I got it. Amazing song and beautifully heartbreaking video. The dancers are phenomenal.
I'll always wait to be there right where we left off.
🔥🤘🏻
I love love love this! Circa seriously hitting new levels of creativity! I can't get enough of it!
This hits different. Stunning creative work!
From tinfoil forests through to fatherhood and beyond in so many different ways Anthony green, circa and saison have left permanent scars on my life and I couldn’t be more grateful for them.
Incredible fucking work, all around, ahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!
Bruh, this vid, frightened rabbit anyone? God I love that band..
This is Bowie 94’ but better
i really dig that like video game synth sound. idk what it is, but it sounds so good
The choreography looks a lot like the TV show The OA.
Wow!!!!!!
I absolutely LOVE this song. Circa survive never makes the same type of album more than once yet it still has all the good qualities of their younger years.
goosebumps.
Please do a show in London
Everything about this is so powerful; the recognition of abuse, the inclusivity, the emotion!
Wow. Incredible dancers
🎵🎶❤️
This hit me deep on so many levels. Thank you
song and video are both heartbreaking and so beautiful! one of those songs that get even better with every listen 💗💗
que buena cancion!, amado el sonido que logra anthony con todo el grupo, una verdadera obra de arte. mucho amor desde chile!
