About This Track
'Monotony' by Preoccupations is a 2016 alternative track from the album 'Preoccupations'. The lyrics sketch a life in repetition and escalation, with days rendered “blue” and translucent, then a spiral of relapse, ricochet, mania and bleak incompletion. Sirens loop, everybody waits, and the urge to get out of the street collides with the persistence of monotony. The tone is anxious and impatient, as if optimism keeps being tested and then undercut.

About the Artist
Lyrics
Destroy and cast away Blue, translucent days Relapse and ricochet Everybody's waiting Cautiously optimistic It's infamy's [?] Falsetto echolalia Falling into mania And it's bleak and incomplete Every siren is on repeat Get the hell out of the street The persistence of monotony is blowing out the Sun This swift precision's killing you, it's killing everyone And it's bleak and incomplete Every siren on repeat Get the hell out of the street
