LYRICS
Diamonds dripping down my throat
Why's it gotta be so addictive
Now I’m Chasing after antidotes
For anything that tastes like a quick fix
Days like this no nothing feels right
Nothing sticks I can’t get out my mind
Tell myself to let it go
I wish that I could let it go
It’s hard to keep it down now
But I need to let the fever sweat out
Now I can’t stand still should be running free
And all these nightmares used to be daydreams
I got my eyes wide open
Don’t wanna care bout nothin’
Wish I could know less just go back to bed
Cause all my pink skies have been painted red
If this is real don’t show it
I wanna run blindfolded
Reality’s a bitter taste
But fantasy can be so deceiving
All my good intentions gone to waste
I’ll do anything to shut out this feeling
I can’t go back, no I’ve gone too far
I miss the way, that my eyes filled with stars
Tell myself to let it go but I don’t
I wish that I could let it go
Now I can’t stand still should be running free
And all these nightmares used to be daydreams
I got my eyes wide open
Don’t wanna care bout nothin’
Wish I could know less just go back to bed
Cause all my pink skies have been painted red
If this is real don’t show it
I wanna run blindfolded
(Run blindfolded)
Take a sip have it anyway you want it
Drink it in let us finish what ya started
Throw a fit yeah I guess I should called it
Now it’s stolen
I’m blindfolded
Stand still should be running free
And all these nightmares used to be daydreams
I got my eyes wide open
Don’t wanna care bout nothin’
Wish I could know less just go back to bed
Cause all my pink skies have been painted red
If this is real don’t show it
I wanna run blindfolded

[@BryJovi17]

"All these years" 🤣 Jeez they've genuinely not been going that long LOL! Try comparing them to classic rock bands that had 2 decades of bangers behind them before still bringing out new bangers - e.g. U2 formed in 1979 then came back in the 90s with One, early 2000s with Beautiful Day, Elevation and Vertigo. Bon Jovi formed in 1983 with Livin' on a Prayer in 1986 then the anthem It's My Life in 2000 and their late 2000s stuff wasn't bad either. Just a few examples but ATC have comparitively only been going for half an hour tbh

[@lukedutton2491]

I'm the same listen to them since 2015 though and by far the best band I've ever came across and I've never regretted it immediately fell in love with Chrissy vocals on day 1 of listening to them fully

[@nintendubs2265]

In two days I’ve gone from “Who’s this band coming to our small venue in Hawaii?” to “omg new ATC video dropped 😮”

[@nazimelmardi]

Happened for a lot. If you were in the past... Some of us started a Kurt Hugo Schneider's channel where they just uploaded a cover and "waiiit...". That was about 10 years ago. KHS always knew how to chose talented pep.

Great song, Dan and Will with the instrumental and the very strong voice from Chrissy, this band is at an all-time high. Can't wait for May 14th in Phila. I am 64 and have watched all your videos from the cover's, to blindfolded, an amazing journey for the three of you. I hope this is your year.

[@K9_AyushMaity]

ATC is the most underrated band it deserves much more popularity By the way thanks for such a masterpiece, I am a high school student and I Promise when I would get a job I would surely come to your concerts. 🙂 Your biggest fan in India

[@alexanderlang1870]

Ive been to 2 of their concerts and i can only recommend it. Its super fun and chrissy is full of energy when shes on stage. It was literally the only nice moment i had that time cause it was while we had exams in university. Go on rockin Greetings Their biggest fan in Germany :^)

[@SundyPlankTon]

I'd say like 95% band's popularity comes from Chrissy and it's more like her side project than a standalone identifiable band. Given the fate of the most power-pop bands of early 2010's, ATC is at solid spot.

[@uhrabtplto3111]

I just got tickets to their Nightmares and Daydreams tour today! And I totally get you, fellow high schooler working minimum wage. Definitely recommend saving money rather than getting fast food everyday obviously, but don’t ignore your savings account either. Wish you luck in getting tickets the next time they swing by India!

[@Get_Low]

Just don't become a phone scammer like so many other people in your country.

[@ayushsaraswat1643]

I agree, it is really underrated, especially here in India, and part of me wishes that they'd announce a tour in India.

This is actually a really perfect song for how I feel right now and how I have been feeling lately. Thank you so much for making such beautiful and moving music. It is truly inspiring.

[@lukedutton2491]

Plus this is why I became a huge fan of Against The Current just over 7 years ago because your songs are the absolute best as they are always bops and just hearing how strong Chrissy vocals have become over the years has been incredible

Duuude I’ve been obsessed with this song ever since it came out, nonstop replay. I saw the title of the video and literally almost screamed and woke up my whole neighborhood. Sooooo excited y’all killed it with this song! I do wonder what an acoustic version would sound like though…..🤔

SAME She is the best

[@uhrabtplto3111]

@Jeff Geiser Sure the structure of the song is very simplistic, but it’s far from boring. As a matter of fact, the simpler structure matches the more down-to-earth lyrics, which I personally find relatable and powerful. On top of that the artistry of the instruments flows and melds together in a way that 1: Definitely isn’t “boring” and 2: Is also not too outlandishly crazy and in-your-face, which Against The Current definitely is not an in-your-face kind of band. So overall I love blindfolded, and it’s catchy enough for me to have it on repeat for the past month-and-a-half. You’re entitled to your opinion of course, I just feel “boring” is a strong word

[@lukedutton2491]

An absolute masterpiece you guys always make the best music ever created you guys are my favourite band of all time

[@sidchronicle2365]

I like how ATC use a lot of drug/alcohol addiction metaphors for other things. As an addict trying to escape it makes it relatable into its own ways.

[@Mister_Portal_USMC]

Found you guys though listening to my homies Enter Shikari on Spotify. Im really loving more women fronted heavier bands with enlightened lyrics. I especially love this song, I may be wrong in my analysis, but as listeners it's sometimes great to have our own interpretations of what the songs mean. I feel this is about the joy of being young and innocent, not knowing everything that is so screwed up in our world, especially with the growing climate crisis that threatens our existence, greedy multinational corporations and individuals who hoard wealth while billions live and struggle in abject poverty. I could spend all day listing off specific issues but I have too much to do. Or this song could be about finding out a partner/lover cheated. Either way, I love the lyrics, love the music composition, absolutely LOVE the vocals. She is phenomenal. ❤❤❤
