Northlane - Impulse Lyrics






So alone in our digital world

The walls are closing in
Shrinking down to the box in the palm of my hand
The shock has settled in
Fibers and wires
Feed me the link that we desire

Every circuit getting smarter
Every signal getting stronger
But our ties are getting weaker
And I see us sinking deeper

I see it sinking deeper

Flawed relations of ones and zeroes connecting us to our digital heroes
An anti-social network where everyone's a fucking expert

I see it sinking deeper

Hollow as a hologram
Electricity without the spark
Hearts left to flicker and fade
Out in the dark

So alone in our digital world

Impulses flowing through my veins
Impulses flowing through copper
Flowing in waves
It feels so close
Yet so far away

Every circuit getting smarter
Every signal getting stronger
But our ties are getting weaker
And I see us sinking deeper

I see it sinking deeper

The walls are closing in

    The production on this record is amazing and refreshing. Love how natural the drums are.

    This song is on repeat for weeks now!

    Also the music video is perfection.

  6. M.... Z....

    This band is growing on me, the less girly vocals the better, there are still teenager singing parts that I don't like, but great band nonetheless.

  13. M.... A....

    havent heard this song since this album dropped but i had to come back to see if the chorus is as bad as i remember. it is.

    M.... A....

    What's wrong with the chorus?

  14. D.... S....

    And the lyrics aren't cheesey, generic. They are original but hold some weight, if you can see the world from a rational perspective in relation to our past as a species. How we won't survive ultimately.
    Ultimately it weakens us as a species. We are too dependant, not on ourselves as we should be.i feel technology weakens us in a way.

  15. Y.... ....

    Anyone else see the "save us" on the wall in the beginning?...








    Right next to a big fat steaming pile of FORESHADOWING

  47. D.... W....

    I like Marcus better than Adrian.

  48. S.... ....

    Amazing video work. All manner of thinking past the ordinary. I wish that man would stop shouting though - sort of ruins some superb imaginative musicality.

  49. P.... T....

    This song is quality. So good! I'm digging the ''new'' Northlane so far. Don't know what people are talking about? Tbh, their old songs are kinda puberty-ish and just random breakdowns all over the place?

    Adrians lows tho... :>

  50. P.... K....

    Adrian was better ;_; Old Northlane forever <3

    P.... K....

    Patryk Kucfir Marcus is good, old northlane is good also, get over it

  51. A.... ....

    The "new" singer kicks ass too

  52. m.... ....

    il ressemble a mister jDay en plus badass XD

  53. C.... P....

    that was the coolest music video I've ever seen lol

  54. A.... A....

    thank u from ascension ;)

  55. J.... A....

    This band is brilliant

  56. M.... H....

    i am 8000 like :)

  57. i.... ....

    I feel like old Northlane was kind of for kids. Which is GREAT. But the message they preached previously was a bit obvious and angsty. They've gotten more clever with their approach this time. I must also point out that they got better at their instruments. Flat out, the compositions are smoother and really go somewhere musically. Breakdowns are used sparingly and tastefully. Choruses are ACTUAL choruses. I was a fan of Northlane since they released their INSTRUMENTAL tracks. For me, the previous singer really set an age limit for the fan base. I hope you guys continue to support Northlane. They're really on to something here. If they continue this path I can see them in the same ranks as Thrice.

    i.... ....

    I disagree that Adrian's lyrics were deep. But hey, it's called perspective. There's nothing wrong with a young mind creating music that young people enjoy. Like i said....it was great! Agree to disagree. And that's ALSO ok.

    i.... ....

    @infoxicate I think its funny how you think Marcus's lyrics are deep but not adrians. You're right its all an opinion and we don't have to agree, but it just sounds silly. His angsty was key! It gave them their unique sound they HAD with Adrian. Personally I don't like the new stuff anywhere near as much as their old stuff with Adrian. Speaks to me so much more than anything on node.

    i.... ....

    Opinions aside how can't you think adrians lyrics are not deep? they are all about self discovery on a cosmic scale.

    Marcus's are about the environment.

    i.... ....

    krisowOw exactly spot on about Adrian's lyrics.
    Side note though, I believe the rest of the band actually wrote the lyrics for Node. So their new stuff has the only lyrics written by Marcus originally.

    i.... ....

    Yeah man. Adrians lyrics were spiritual, introspective, how we as one person matter and the change we can illicit.

    The new lyrics are purely political. Leech, rot, impulse, all prime examples.

    I _personally_ like that kinda thing more in deathcore. Like molotov solution do it perfectly.

    ALL THOUGH, architects do it too, but they also have some deep personal songs too like gone with the wind.

    All in all though, I think adrian spoke out too much about what some consider conspiracy theories, like the illuminati and NWO, and that may have played a role in him leaving. Can't really shit talk the elite and expect to get big haha

  58. N.... B....

    So original and listenable, passionately delivered and catchy, , tastefully restrained yet heavy as fuck. Band gets better every time I hear them.

  59. H.... L....

    Used to be the best band in the world; then they got shit when Adrian left

    H.... L....

    Plus where did the production go? The drums sound like diarrhea

  60. T.... E....

    1:35 milo going off his cunt

  61. H.... M....

    What happened to the old vocalist? I liked him

  62. R.... ....

    Didn't know Tyrian Lannister was in a band ;)

  63. G.... P....

    This Music just refers to the uk right now , brexitt

  64. T.... A....

    Digital world - Digimon. Loving it :D

  65. M.... F....

    M.... F....

    +Amber Goode got it...im in too..this band since adrian to marcus i love it so badly with northane..and listen it whatever the view and feeling i had..👍😊

  66. B.... S....

    So alone in a digital world

  67. A.... ....

    such on point with this 1

  68. M.... M....

    wow que buen video I Love It

  69. A.... G....

    Old Northlane vs New Northlane. I don't like this "metamorphosis"

  70. S.... M....

    omg i never realized this song came out on my bday💜💚😝👌✌

  71. e.... ....

    GOOD👌🏻SHIT👌🏻👌🏻

  72. a.... ....

    this is metalcore

    a.... ....

    +Ashsyahid Hussin i agree too

  73. I.... T....

    It's funny how in this song it literary says

    Every circuit getting smarter
    Every signal getting stronger
    But our ties are getting weaker
    And I see us sinking deeper

    I see it sinking deeper

    Flawed relations of ones and zeroes connecting us to our digital heroes
    An anti-social network where everyone's a fucking expert.

    Yet nothing changes , try to listen and stop judging everything you think you know before you know what you are talking about please people.

  74. C.... K....

    A Marcus/Adrian duo song would be sick

  75. E.... ....

    These guys have a style that sounds a LOT like Crown The Empire. Really good though.

  76. R.... B....

  80. C.... ....

    Super dope, loving the way new Northlane is sounding. It's a nice change (:

  81. Z.... ....

    what an EPIC. epic everything. video, editing, cinematography, song, singing, bass, drums, vocals, meaning, melody, everything. this is the epitome of metalcore/djent, both visually and sonically.

  82. A.... C....

    Greetings from Brazil!!!

  83. L.... ....

    Why did he leave northlane? And i have to say, i only discovered the band recently, but have listened to alot of their music, and when its not arian singing, the music just isnt as good, the entire band isnt as good, anyone know why he left?

  84. R.... ....

    wow northlane turned to garbage. missing Adrian hard af right now

  87. s.... H....

    yay marcus so much better than adrian

  88. D.... S....

    It sucks because they're so original. But after one or two songs, i just feel like there's not much creativity or difference between tracks.

  89. N.... F....

    Deftones is that you?

  90. J.... ....

    fuck this guy, adrian was the shit

  91. v.... ....

    Marcus has a voice that reduces me to an emotional pot of melted chocolate. I also rather enjoy this song!

  92. K.... F....

    Absolutely beautiful, the video is also amazing. i sing this song all the time ( yes including the screamo haha)

  93. J.... P....

    wtf happened. lol really big difference. I feel some creativity is lost. Especially with the lyrics. He rhymes like every word together. like it has no deep meaning as the lyrics off singularity.

    J.... P....

    +Jim Parker Have you seen his audition video "Grateful"? An interpretation of Singularity? Check it

    J.... P....

    +Diego Franco (whyletitdie) Josh wrote the lyrics lmao

    J.... P....

    +Jim Parker are you seriously coming to the conclusion that the lyrics lack deep meaning just cause it rhymes?

    lmfao what a fucking twerp.

    J.... P....

    +Karan N OMG LYK WHO DAFUQ YOU KALLIN A TWERP IM SO OFFENDED

    J.... P....

    marcus didnt even write the lyrics it was josh you dumb fuck

  94. O.... ....

    Anyone else think of Digimon at the start of the song?
