Lyrics:
Press your fingers on it, igniting what you are
Meet me by the lake
I'm ripe with severed faith
You wear the only scar
If I'm saint, then you're heaven
My only
If I'm a waste, then you're golden
My only
If I'm a shame, then you're bolder than all of me
If I'm a saint, then you're heaven
My only
Cement for all of our teeth
I'll give you myself any day
Rest your body in it, set fire to your thoughts
Let your arms down, throw your soul out
There is no control
[Chorus]
Cement for all of our teeth
Spread your figure across
Don't deny who you were
Cement for all of our teeth
Wear the skin that I stole
Don't deny what you want
I'll give you myself any day
If I am flawed, then you're perfect
My only
If I'm a liar, then you're blameless
My only
If I am hanging by a thread, then you're infinite
If I'm a saint, then you're heaven
My only
[Chorus]

Jack Savage Maybe, but people has compared their early stuff to Brand New as well, even though it sound nothing like them. And i still stand by my point, a modern with shoegaze elements? They sound like Whirr.. a band uses spoken word parts? They are like La Dispute. A band makes really long songs? They are just like Fucked Up

This is isn't shoegaze. This isn't Brand New (they are one of Mat's favorites so it would make sense that their influence would rub off sometimes), its just Citizen. Being so, I think its better than everything they've done so far. Blows anything on Youth out of the water.

Early 2000's made me think nu-metal. Blegh
this album needs to come out faster I'm obsessed w this
the more I listen to this song, the more I fucking love it. so pumped for the new album.
Citizen is one of those bands that never disappoints. can't wait to hear the rest!
Kind of wish there was a music video for this. Ugh I love this band.
This band literally just keeps getting better and better. I am impressed.
This band has everything that is beautiful about music.
I honestly love this song. At first I was a little iffy about it because they took it in a new direction, but it's grown on me.
Love the way they are evolving from album to album
Loving this song, exactly what I was expecting from them and I love it
This still shreds! Every Band is gunna change eventually, I love the way they're growing on this. This song is so beautiful
i can't wait for the new album. much love for citizen!
This dont sound like citizen. Please dont change ! We all want old citizen CITIZEN!

Citizen is here to stay.
This is so fucking good! I love how you can hear some direct Brand New influence but they still have they're own sound thrown in it. UGH THIS IS JUST SO GOOD
Fuuuuck I'm so obsessed about this song
I really hope they don't dismiss the "Youth" style completely with this album.

love it!
love yall please come to singapore
this is legendary
This gonna be a great album I just pre ordered it.
Reminds me of Queens of the Stone Age, this album is gonna be sweet!
Still dont know if I like this or not, but I cannot deny that after listening to this song 3 times its already stuck in my head
Loving that Brand New influence with the Citizen twist
Great!
One of the absolute best live rock bands I've ever seen. Worthy successor and evolution of the spirit Nirvana had in my opinion
I have fallen in love with the bass off this whole album
Really wish people would stop comparing this to Youth. If they want to move onto different grounds, they should. This is pretty good tbh
Ok, guys we have got to stop using the term shoegaze to describe anything with the slightest bit of reverb or lower mixed vocals on it. This is not shoegaze, it's not even close to it. I'm not even a big fan of that genre, nor am I stickler for labels but it's just getting really annoying to see people using the term improperly. It's like anything that's come out in the past year with maybe a bit of feedback or some delay and a chorus pedal on the guitar and everyone is going "So shoegaze!" or "This is totally 90's!" Listen to a band like Nothing or Whirr or maybe even Cloakroom (Cloakroom has some shoegaze influences, but are a good bit heavier). Those are some new bands doing the shoegaze thing. Then there's the classics like My Bloody Valentine or Slowdive. That's what shoegaze actually sounds like, not this. If you're going to put a label on this type of sound, it's very much post-hardcore/emo or punk. It has much more in common with bands late 80's and early 90's alternative and post-hardcore scene than it does with Shoegaze. More over, it's just good rock music. Please, I'm begging you guys, stop using shoegaze to describe everything Will Yip produces. Title Fight, Balance And Composure, Citizen, Circa Survive, Tigers Jaw, Superheaven; they are NOT shoegaze bands haha.

I listen to shoegaze friend aha I have plenty of knowledge of the genre so you can stop being a dick about it. And there are definite shoegaze elements to this song IN MY OPINION such as the dissonance of the background guitars. And this is definitely industrial rock sounding such as early nine inch nails and some BN Daisy references throughout, so if you were to piece it apart it very well could be a mixture of both genres. Again, In My Opinion.

Go listen to DIIV if u want shoegaze
Reminds me so much of brand new
total banger! mat sounds so different, but change is good! much love from Honduras xx
This is really cool.
Love the dark vibe 🌑
This is really good
Anyone else hearing a good blend of Brand New, My bloody Valentine, and Deftones? They sound great and yet again Will Yip proves why he's the best mixing engineer and producer in the indie realm.
JUST WAIT UNTIL THE FULL ALBUM- TWO SONGS AND YOU GUYS ARE ALREADY MAKING BIG BIG STATEMENTS
Obviously a Brand New sound and a hint of Sonic Youth.
If someone show this to me, i wouldnt even think of Citizen being the band

Hey, i got a new complain.
lets hope the next release is more appealing. i'm not saying i don't like it, it's just not what I was expecting at all and slightly disappointed
Wow i love this brand new is my favorite band and they dont sound like brand new but they have that vibe and i love it omg.
This straight up sounds nu metal
Heard these guys for the first time a couple weeks ago in minneapolis opening up for Circa Survive with RX bandits. I wasnt sure what to think of them they looked like some old scrubby guys wearing dirty t shirts and baseball caps down over their eyes and their live guitars sounded like shit (which was part of their appeal to me). But they opened up with this bass line, and when played live it kinda hits you like "holy shit." Thats really what stuck with me in my head
I'LL GIVE YOU MYSELF GIVE YOU MYSELF ANYDAY
This sounds like it should be in a soundtrack for something.
sounds like ac dc
Not at all what I was expecting but I fucking dig it
I’m here because I like the song and I don’t give a sh*t what genre it is
yasss
This gives me a HIM/Brand New feel so hard. Fucking glorious.
I'm not a fan of citizen but my friend is, so I decided to check them out and am listening to this song now. All I can say, is that compared to their other stuff this is way better.
I was hoping their new stuff would be a little closer to Silo, but I think this will grow on me eventually.
Still amazing ❤👽
What a step backwards.
I can hear this being played in Hot Topic already.
Getting some Slint vibes at parts of this song!

Am I listening to Citizen or Brand New? Lol kidding but it's pretty good. Can't wait to hear the rest.
I'm with the guy who said Nine Inch Nails. Instantly what I thought of.
mat k just has an amazing voice, and I think the band found a perfect sound to go with it. Not that their sound was bad before, but I love this new stuff more.
2021
that chorus though
Sounds like Nickelback, stoked.

Because they don't know how to do a single original thing at all. If you are ripping Brand New this hard, there is a problem. We don't need Daisy B-sides from a band that is capable of more.
well I think this is great! what were you expecting? another shoegaze/dreampop album like the rest of bands doing the same? can't wait to hear the rest of the album
Sound like Citizen to me.
I can't help but hear a little Deftones - Dai the Flu in this song

This is crazy good F THE HATERZ!!
sounds like sandstorm by darude
Just cause this song has reverb does not mean its fucking shoegaze. Go listen to Chapterhouse or something so you'll actually know what you're talking about when you say something "sounds shoegaze"
