Polaris - NIGHTMARE [Official Music Video]

In loving memory of Ryan Siew Nightmare is the second single from our third LP ‘FATALISM’, out now via Resist/Sharptone. Listen to FATALISM: LYRICS: I saw the signs The signal fires that burned atop the hill Rising tides and violent skies All the while the world was standing still Defenceless as a rat in a cage Living with our backs to the wall From the minute we wake Too sedated to notice We’re living in a nightmare A pre-apocalyptic wasteland Is there no one who can save us If we refuse to save ourselves? Our best intentions pave our path to hell What does it mean to be a captive In the confines of your mind? What does it mean to be a hostage To the enemy inside? We’ve been here before I guess we learned nothing The signs were all but ignored The planets collide as we all stop and stare Too jaded to notice We’re living in a nightmare A pre-apocalyptic wasteland Is there no one who can save us If we refuse to save ourselves? Our best intentions pave our path to hell I see their shadows dance on the walls As voices echo in empty halls It makes my stomach sink As I close my eyes and beg for sleep Chaos kills the calm Fingers through my palms I can’t make it stop Somebody kick the chair and fucking wake me up Spare your thoughts and prayers They’ll never be enough It only tightens the noose The more we struggle to cut ourselves loose Every cry rings out like a shot The streets run red as the forests wither and rot Declaring with their final breath Eternal fear is a fate worse than death But no one’s gonna save us If we won’t fucking save ourselves Our best intentions pave our path to hell We’re living in a nightmare (Never again will we sleep) A pre-apocalyptic wasteland (Until we are weary and weak) And there’s no one who can save us If we refuse to save ourselves Our best intentions pave our path to hell And you will see me there when they tighten the noose I deserve this just like the rest of you ___ Produced & Engineered by Lance Prenc and Scott Simpson Mixed and Mastered by Lance Prenc ___ Directed / DOP / Edited / VFX / Colour Graded - @thirdeyevisualsau Producer - Todd Farley 2nd Camera Op / Gaffer - Ed Bellamy FPV Drone Pilot - Josh Labita Production Designer - Zak Douglas Art Assist - Candice Nelson Production Assistant - Jess Douglas MUA - Chiara Mocnik Catering - Carmel and Bernie Farley BTS - @Rixoncreative Special Thanks - Harpy Film , Working Heritage , BETA BY STH BNK, BEULAH, Sharegear , Andrew Lock.
