This song is wonderfully placed in the track listing. Comes right after the heaviest song on the album and acts as an atmospheric midpoint interlude. This feels like the culmination of Periphery's more pop oriented songs, and of Jake's heavenly electronic work which has slowly been taking up a bigger role in the band's sound. And what a beautiful blending of the two it is. This kind of crazy genre shifting is exactly what I expect and want from a new Periphery album at this point. If nothing else, Periphery is always creative, uninhibited, and true to themselves.

This one got me really choked up a couple days ago, had me feeling very proud about the progress I've made in the past year and the person I'm becoming,, immeasurably thankful that this band is a part of my life, and loving the creativity and vibes of this new album. Cheers, and much love.

I mainly listen to Periphery for their metal, but God damn this is so good! When I first heard it, I was like "ok I get it, but not my vibe" 7 listens later and I'm crying and singing the lyrics, same for Dying Star. Such an awesome song about self reflection and realizations, staying incredibly sad yet inspirational at the same time. I can't get over how much I love this dynamic, I would never listen to anything else that sounds like this. Periphery are solidifying themselves as one of the greatest bands of all time.

This one was an instant favorite, similarly to Lune. I'm a suckered for synthwave and future symth, and this song hit just right for me and was a great pallet cleanser, since it came right after the heaviest song on the album.

Wow I did not expect an 80s-tinged synthpop ballad on a Periphery album, but you guys have really taught me to expect the unexpected. I love this song, it gives me some Chvrches/The Midnight vibes two other bands I love!

Wish I could see you Sunday!

This song really speaks to me on a personal level. The synthwave is amazing and used well with the guitar. I thrive for the ethereal feel of music. This is an amazing ballad. All of these sounds create an amazing tone for the theme of the song as well.

One of my favorite songs on P5 Spencer can literally fit into any picture frame you hold him in

Lyrics: Love, loss, light circling everybody It gets hazy as the years begin to breathe Step back in the memory, relive a parody of me He gets hazy, move along in disbelief We're not the people we once were And we've moved on, seeking out answers (Answers) Viewing the past self Like he's only a friend of mine The world is turning as we grow We soak in the afterglow It's only part of the path we take Left in our wake The colors of our past will fade to gray This life replays in stereo We soak in the afterglow Leave clues hanging from the wall See him walking down the hall Piecing the puzzle undone and It's like a movie that replays, but he can't find the boy inside Passing through all the hues, blue vibe like it's a funeral Funeral for somebody Close the coffin of his mind He was only a friend of mine Where does he go and is he just a silhouette? What do we know? What little of him do we know? Just a part of who we were still in the light, oh The world is turning as we grow We soak in the afterglow It's only part of the path we take Left in our wake The colors of our past will fade to gray This life replays in stereo We soak in the afterglow (Afterglow) Afterglow To purge the cells of someone else We shed our past down the wishing well Your seven years Have come and gone so well To purge the cells of someone else We shed our past down the wishing well Your seven years Have come and gone so well The world keeps turning as we grow We soak in the afterglow It's only part of the path we take Left in our wake The colors of our past will fade to gray This life replays in stereo We soak in the afterglow

Periphery is my favorite pop band.

The beginning sounds like Prince. Very nice.

This'll probably be one of the more divisive songs in the album but I love my synthwave and retro throwback music, and I'm not afraid at all to say this is one of my favorite Periphery songs already. Great work on the album. Elite tier album.

Get them new retro wave vibes jus a lil and I love it, every song is its own entity with Periphery, Spencer kills this

“We’re going in synthwave territory” - Jake

I am loving this. What is so progressive is being a prog metal band that produces a song sounding like the 1975

I took a fat dab and listened to this and my mind was blown lol one of my favorites on the album! Spencer’s lyrics are absolutely the best! So relatable!

Periphery, every time you release an album, song or EP you all get so much better, the guitar works, the incredible vocals of spencer and the great drumming. And god the songs are always written SO well. By far my favourite band.

this confirms my prediction Periphery are slowly becoming a synth pop band! At least they'll do it right.

My song of the year

The ironic thing is that a metal band is managed to make a better pop song than all of the pop artists in the last 10 years

When I tell you I started bawling....😅😊

Yes Periphery, keep breaking down them walls 😁 🔨

Prince vibes on this one

This is an official petition for the boys to play this live and Misha to use a Keytar

I love this 80's pops? vibes too.

This one is a bop! Love the synth piano and the 80’s feels

I can't get over how well Periphery Synthwave works

I'm a huge music fan, but my main genres are probably synthwave, vaporwave, math rock and post-rock. this album fucking nailed it for me. This song would sit in a The Midnight album. Love it

A surprise but a pleasant one

I love it. John Hughes would be proud.

The people ripping on this track 100% think that djent is a genre Surprise, there are no rules in prog ;)

I feel like this could have been a great closer even if it doesn't explode near the end like they usually do
