White Noise, The - Cosmopolitician Lyrics






Look me in the eyes right now

It’s safe to say you’re addicted beneath
When you’re alone do you feel anything?
Fuck money and power and ruling everything
How could I know exactly what you could be?

You built a world that left us paralyzed
You never change your mind
You never change your mind do you?
We’re counting dollars while you’re counting lives
You never change your mind so I won’t change, I won't change mine

Let’s take it back one year ago when all I knew was a cubicle
Shovel shit to idiots who’d pay their rent but they forget
I forget that I’m surrounded by a culture in disguise
Taking drugs to keep their darkest fantasies alive

I am the American dream
I am the god damned American dream
I am the American dream
I am the god damned American dream

Hiding secrets in a safe called fear

You built a world that left us paralyzed
You never change your mind
You never change your mind do you?
We’re counting dollars while you’re counting lives
You never change your mind so I won’t change, I won't change mine

Look me in the eyes right now
Look me in the eyes
Get fucked
I am the American dream
I am the god damned American dream
I am the American dream
I am the god damned American dream

  10. N.... T....

    I cant wait for these guys to blow up💜

  11. K.... ....

    this is so fucking good

  12. A.... L....

    Saw these guys live at the troubadour and it changed my life. What the singer said changed how I saw myself and the outside world. Great band.

  13. C.... K....

    Punk is back apparently

  14. V.... C....

    Do I feel like listening to anything else today? ....nope. Replay XD :P

  15. L.... D....

    This is the perfect blend of melodic hardcore and punk tbh and that's what I love about these guys, as well as the second vocalist/guitarist looking like foggy from the daredevil series

  16. D.... S....

    this is honestly like the coolest band ever!

  17. J.... A....

    I love the blonde guy with the guitar 0.0

  18. A.... G....

    Been looking for this song for a year finally found it

  19. J.... W....

    Damn just getting into these guys and they've got such a killer sound. It's got a nostalgic feel to it but it's so heavy and pissed off at the same time! Keep it up dudes, this is so rad! Gonna buy the EP now.

    J.... W....

    Also loving the Trailer Park Boys reference at the beginning! Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam!

  20. C.... ....

    Fucking love you guys

  21. H.... S....

    They make me think of a more advanced version of what Heart In Hand was. And their vocalist is somewhat better haha

    Sick fucking sound, though!!

  22. S.... R....

    really been getting into these dudes lately, they kick ass

  23. W.... M....

    BLESS. I've been listening to their same songs for a while now, even when it was just a few releases before the EP, but I'm glad to see how much they've grown. They're still such an underappreciated band, but when the light hits 'em and the fanbase explodes, I couldn't be more proud honestly.

    W.... M....

    chemikal that pleases us to know!

  24. E.... C....

    This is the White Noise sound i love. That new soft stuff isnt quite as good.

  28. A.... 4....

    honestly the live video makes this,song so much better even just the audio the little hype thing they do in the beginning makes the song feel so much more fun to listen in a weird the intro gives the song so much more energy LMAO

  29. M.... H....

    raw, gritty, powerful and hype as fuck. See you this summer

  30. B.... ....

    They're good but i hate seeing videos like this, "live video" in the title but not the audio.

  45. F.... ....

    Just saw them live last night, they were great!

  46. J.... ....

    this will give me more seizures then pokemon

  47. I.... ....

    This is how to do a live music video, it has their own charm everywhere.

  48. d.... m....

    kinda sounds like a mix of cte and ptv

  49. N.... S....

    So good.n

  50. L.... E....

  54. A.... H....

    I LOVE THIS BAND!!! MUCH

  55. W.... S....

    Why is this song sooooo good!!

  56. D.... S....

    The White Noise: Get the fuck out PTV, we've got better vocals, actually, we've got better everything!
    -Later that night, PTV went home and looked up TWN-
    Pierce the Veil: Fuck they were right.

    D.... S....

    Drake Salazar you really can't compare them different genres funny comment though

    D.... S....

    Drake Salazar I don't know how to react to this comment considering twn and ptv are tied for my favorite band

    D.... S....

    don't talk to me Nah this band is tight but I'd still pick songs like The Sky Under The Sea over TWN

  57. M.... D....

    "I forget that I’m surrounded by a culture in disguise
     Taking drugs to keep their darkest fantasies alive" ... The lyrics are gold son!

  58. M.... N....

    Sick AF

  59. I.... C....

    The 2º guitarist ?

  60. M.... B....

    what happened to the other guitarist?

    M.... B....

    I went to heaven

    M.... B....

    +Josh Strock sounds pretty great! but I was hoping you were still playing with them. love your guitar work. So you're back?

    M.... B....

    +Matthew Bergstein I won't be in videos at all but sometimes you may see me playing some shows! I am behind the scenes for good though! Finishing up the next album though! If you hate any future music you can still blame me :)

    M.... B....

    +Josh Strock awesome glad to hear you will still be writing with them. Why no more touring? if you don't mind me asking. any other projects you're doing?

    M.... B....

    +Matthew Bergstein do you have twitter? Follow me if so I can DM ya!

  61. D.... E....

    This band owns they are so awesome to live.

  62. K.... F....

    Wow, this is great.

  63. T.... ....

    This must've taken months to edit:o

  64. S.... S....

    I wish you guys did an mcr cover

  65. S.... S....

    That was fucking amazing, great art when it got dark... really got intense!

  66. A.... ....

    i like this band.

  67. W.... U....

    I fucking love this band since the start.

  68. J.... M....

    If they can keep their songwriting in check they will be unstoppable when they release an LP.

    J.... M....

    You know who this band sort of reminds me of in away. Well three bands, The Used (first album used though) Islander, and New Politics (they really remind me of them, esp on their first album)

    J.... M....

    +Derk Ender I also hear some Taking Back Sunday in the vocals. Looking forward to seeing their live show one day.

    J.... M....

    @Jeff Bordeaux ya now that you mention that I sort of do too. Yeah man you really need to see them live. I got a video of them doing Picture Day he was in the crowd and they were all around him.

  69. M.... ....

    This is awesome! I love some good hardcore bands!

    M.... ....

    @Derk Ender
    I see your point.

    M.... ....

    @Metalkid1500 I wasn't trying to be a jerk to you btw LOL re-reading my comment made me sound like a jerk. Sorry if I came off like that. But I really don't know what to put them under really at all.

    M.... ....

    @Derk Ender
    I didn't think you were being a jerk. You were just questioning the genre.

    M.... ....

    Derk Ender I feel like they are trying to put hardcore first and mix it with everything else. In some aspects it's post-hardcore,but in others it's metalcore(structures of some songs,breakdowns). But i do feel like in the lack of anything closer i would call them either hardcore or post-hardcore. Just my oppinion,i would love to hear what others think.

    M.... ....

    @Max the Scarecrow Yeah I do agree with you on that too.

  70. o.... /....

    I love this band

  71. t.... ....

    Really good👌🏼

  72. B.... ....

    really hope these guys dont soften their style. in fact i hope it gets crazier, like reminiscent of the chariot

    B.... ....

    likewise.

    B.... ....

    Benlikesdamusic life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get.....same with our music

    B.... ....

    The new album is definitely a bit more toned down, but the songwriting is still solid. Think of Bullets and Octane going from "In the Mouth of the Young" to "Songs for the Underdog". I don't think it outshines the EP, but I enjoyed it.

    B.... ....

    [Quick rant warning]
    What’s cool is with AM/PM is there were some super intense songs like Innocent Until Birth and Rated R (though it wasn’t as crazy as Comsopolitician) but there were also super melodic catchy choruses with Bite Marks and Picture Day.
    There was also I Lost My Mind In California, which was almost an alternative/pop-punk song.
    Then Sunspots, 24 Hour Revenge therapy and other songs felt sort of grungey. And Montreal IS SO EMOTIONAL AAAHH

  73. y.... u....

    I want to see them tour with Motionless In White

  74. t.... r....

    Fucking awesome band.

  75. A.... S....

    fuckin' sick!

    c.... ....

    +aeequs their Pure Volume has their full discography as Set The Sun other than Desolate.

    c.... ....

    John Stokedton vs. the state of gnaria was the first song I listened ti. then there Armegedon, and the ghost of john stokedton

    c.... ....

    pure volume is still around. Shit I remember that from the early 2000's always used to fine my screamo and electrocore bands off their lol.

    c.... ....

    @Derk Ender Good thing Set The Sun were an electronicore band.

    c.... ....

  88. G.... G....

  91. A.... V....

    Saw them back in March at Chain Reaction and HOLY SHIT they were amazing and let me scream into the mic to one of their songs! Best show I've been to in years! Thank you Fearless for finding these guys<3

    A.... V....

    A.... V....

  95. R.... ....

    love you guys! awesome video!

  96. �.... ....

    member n position change?

    �.... ....

    their lead guitarist kj was not on this tour but is still in the band and touring again. bailey and david switched roles

    �.... ....

    They got lost in the Rocky Mountains without any food. Decisions were made. KJ just happened to be the slowest runner

  97. T.... M....

    Saw these guys in concert at the Gas Monkey Grill in Dallas with Hands Like Houses and Enter Shikari, everyone seemed to know them. Likely because they are from Dallas.

    T.... M....

    they are super nice💘

    T.... M....

    They said there from LA.

    T.... M....

    @john botello​ they are originally from Dallas, but moved to Los Angeles

    T.... M....

    +Thomas Land thanks for the information
