Night fades in golden blades...
The Golden Blades are a four-piece band from Upper Austria. If you had to open a stylistic drawer, you would find them in the indie pop genre, although their music is multi-layered and influences from many musical backgrounds can be found. If you look for a comparison, you will probably hear echoes of Muse, Bloc Party, Blondie or (… anything else?). The Golden Blades stand for songs that had been worked out down to the last detail and are really catchy. Their motto: The joy of creativity is at the very centre as well as emotion. The band’s live concept is not only perfectly dramaturgically versatile due to its musical range, but also visually appealing.

Lyrics
night falls across the sunken land
the tears that we shed dried up quickly
roaming the streets that we’ve lost
dancing the pavement lightly footed
my heart’s awakening from all the sleep that I have put on it
wake and shake tomorrow then I know just what was missing here
night fades in golden blades
the dark growls down silver lakes
depths of black older than stars
creep up in pairs and get behind me
dancing on moment’s tender wings
allowing what’s buried under control
the night brings the best and worst of me
it’s there ‚cause it’s meant to be felt here
my heart’s awakening from all the sleep that I have put on it
wake and shake tomorrow then I know just what was missing here
night fades in golden blades
the dark growls down silver lakes
depths of black older than stars
creep up in pairs and get behind me
fear the open road
don’t know where it goes
will you find
what’s beyond
trapped in infinte loops
can I really choose
or do I just
gaze at shadows
the wind is changing
and they’d feel it
but they don’t know how to cope
so they decide to stay numb and just carry on
clocks ticking in time
poets try to find perfect rhymes
and the coward
counts his coins
selling our time and our brains
and the blood that runs in our veins
longs for more than we’ll see
live a little life and don’t say
what you
live a little life and don’t say a word
live a little life and don’t say
what you heard
the wind is changing
and they’d feel it
but they don’t know how to cope
so they decide to stay numb and just carry on
see how I feel inside
attached to a mirror of fright
gazing at
my reflection
try to wipe away
the ice that covers the lake
I must see
what’s there deep down
live a little life and don’t say
what you
live a little life and don’t say a word
live a little life and don’t say
what you heard
scratch the surface of deeper meaning
the wind is changing
and they’d feel it
but they don’t know how to cope
so they decide to stay numb and just carry on
heavens shine we are far
be my friend rather not
but we’re on the same side
love is cruel so are you
better dance I will too
you need a better shape of mind
and then I feel overwhelmed by your scars
prayers come easy my friend
I will loose in the end
you’ve got no reason
friendly faces come by
try to shine it’s so hard
get yourself together now
and then I feel overwhelmed by my scars
you can’t run nor you can hide
even if the sun ain’t bright
golden rays they’ll lift your lids
come on raise your head you don’t need no reason
life has taught me oh crap
I will step in that trap
that is so clichè
if you heard what you say
you sound like an ahstray
dust yourself off and stand up
and then I feel overwhelmed by our scars
you can’t run nor you can hide
even if the sun ain’t bright
golden rays they’ll lift your lids
come on raise your head you don’t need no reason
did you think i could never mess with you
now you know i don’t owe you anything
hey hey
hey hey
and you’re struck by my electricity
that i’ve gained from abandoning toxicity
hey hey
hey hey
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
did you did you did you know it did you know it, did you?
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
did you ah did you, ah did you did you did you know it
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
did you did you did you know it did you know it, did you?
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
did you ah did you, ah did you did you did you know it?
look after your energy, ‚cause that is what makes you vibrant.
some will say „gosh she pretty radical“
then i say „yeah, i hate radicchio!“
hey hey
hey hey
but seriously i’m working on impatience
so that i can keep on being gracious
hey hey
hey hey
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
did you did you did you know it did you know it, did you?
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
did you ah did you, ah did you did you did you know it?
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
did you did you did you know it did you know it, did you?
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
did you ah did you, ah did you did you did you know it?
come on did you know it?
did you did you did you did you, come on, come on, come on did you know it?
