lyrics
You are the door that’s left wide open
You are the voices in the hall
You are the footsteps from the stairwell
You are the silhouette on the wall
You’re the creaking of the floorboards
You’re the choking of the pipes
You’re the breeze beneath the window
You’re the failing of the light
And the noises in the night
You’re still here
You’re still here
I thought I saw you leave but you’re still here
You’re still here
Even though
I saw you go
Everything is still
You are the flicker of the picture
You are the static on the screen
You are the marks upon the mirror
You are the tarnish, the taint, the sheen
You’re the breaking of the bad news
You’re the trailing of the tears
You’re the patronising half-smiles
You’re the passing of the years
And the unfolding of my fears
Chorus
You’re still here
You’re still here
I thought I saw you leave but you’re still here
You’re still here
Even though I saw you go
Everything is still
You’re the breaking of the bad news
You’re the trailing of the tears
You’re the patronising half-smiles
You’re the passing of the years
And the unfolding of my fears
You’re still here (You’re still here)
You’re still here (You’re still here)
I thought I saw you leave but you’re still here
You’re still here
Even though I saw you go
You’re still here
You’re still here
I saw you disappear but you’re still here
You’re still here
Even though
I told you to go
I told you to go
I told you to go
I told you to go
You are the voices in the hall
You are the footsteps from the stairwell
You are the silhouette on the wall
You’re the creaking of the floorboards
You’re the choking of the pipes
You’re the breeze beneath the window
You’re the failing of the light
And the noises in the night
You’re still here
You’re still here
I thought I saw you leave but you’re still here
You’re still here
Even though
I saw you go
Everything is still
You are the flicker of the picture
You are the static on the screen
You are the marks upon the mirror
You are the tarnish, the taint, the sheen
You’re the breaking of the bad news
You’re the trailing of the tears
You’re the patronising half-smiles
You’re the passing of the years
And the unfolding of my fears
Chorus
You’re still here
You’re still here
I thought I saw you leave but you’re still here
You’re still here
Even though I saw you go
Everything is still
You’re the breaking of the bad news
You’re the trailing of the tears
You’re the patronising half-smiles
You’re the passing of the years
And the unfolding of my fears
You’re still here (You’re still here)
You’re still here (You’re still here)
I thought I saw you leave but you’re still here
You’re still here
Even though I saw you go
You’re still here
You’re still here
I saw you disappear but you’re still here
You’re still here
Even though
I told you to go
I told you to go
I told you to go
I told you to go

A Dark Adapted Heart recommends:
-
Perfectly described by someone else as 'Britney Spears singing with Nine Inch Nails'. Perfect pop-synth-joy-misery-singalongs that feel like metal even though there are no guitars. Ace videos too.

The Tyranny Of Inaction
by Rosetta StoneA stone cold classic goth-industrial album chock full of brilliant songs. Can't recommend it enough.
go to album -
Lay There & Drown / The Hole (single)
by the WeepLovely, gnarly tom-driven 90s-style goth but better. Great lyrics; great vocals. Sounds a bit like The Marionettes but properly produced. Can imagine this one becoming a pre-midnight Slimes classic.

The End Is the Beginning
by Mirror Of HazePerfectly gloomy Norwegian goth/post-punk, anchored by a punchy rhythm section and driven by chiming guitar lines and morose vocals.

Prints Of Darkness (2018 Deluxe Remaster)
by Dead Artist SyndromeA ’90s goth cult classic gets a vinyl reissue, its lush synths and melancholy melodies still rapturous and bewitching. A triumph.
go to album -
“Strangers” is packed with wonderfully menacing electro-goth—late-night horror movie music for vampire dance parties.
