Lyrics
Is this a riot or a crisis or a little bit of both
Are we laughing are we crying either way I hope we choke
All the futures we’re denying cos there’s no such thing as hope
It goes on and on and on but all the bright lights are still flashing
On the pretty people acting on the movie screens
And I’m still looking for
Clarity clarity
Can anybody offer me
Honesty
Don’t tell me who I want to be cos all I need’s identity
Bury me
Underneath
The weight of your conformity
It’s killing me
So give me a name
I’ll figure it out
String me up don’t let me be
Another face in your crowd
Don’t wanna be (No)
A part of your
Crisis
(Is this thing on?)
With the filters applied
The anxiety dies
For the thousands with quick fix wool over their eyes and I
Won’t say I’m surprised when they search for some meaning and question their lives
Your gated community’s
Under scrutiny
But with a wrecking ball
We’ll expose you all
For the whole world to see
So won’t ya give me some
Clarity clarity
Can anybody offer me
Honesty
Don’t tell me who I want to be cos all I need’s identity
Bury me
Underneath
The weight of your conformity
It’s killing me
So give me a name
I’ll figure it out
String me up don’t let me be
Another face in your crowd
Alright
Crisis
Gimme some god damn
Clarity clarity
Can anybody offer me
Honesty
Don’t tell me who I want to be
Cos all I needs identity
Bury me
Underneath
The weight of your conformity
It’s killing me
So give me a name
I’ll figure it out
String me up don’t let me be
Another face in your crowd
Don’t wanna be (No)
A part of your
Crisis

[@lowgunhendrie4941]

"they're not gonna compare us to neck deep anymore boys"

[@leoven-rondegracia5396]

Sad but true.

[@ifloof]

They're gonna be playing alongside them during Neck Deep's current tour 🤣

[@hcupo]

Dont thinks they're similar enough to compare them both though

[@lowgunhendrie4941]

@@hcupo dude listen to lonely smiles then listen to literally any neck deep song. They used to be nearly indiscernible. They finally have found their own sound on this album though, and for that I'm glad for them.

[@hcupo]

Lowgun Hendrie just head the song gobshit yeah you're right, it sounds almost exactly like neck deep. Still prefer their older stuff, his voice is better when "screaming", I didnt like his voice in recent songs though. Ps: Todays the first time I'm listening to them, just my first impressions

[@evanchiang6799]

Last Time I was this early we still had Warped Tour

[@rascalzard4217]

Chill it literally just ended lol

[@l3rendd]

too soon

[@shuwee9202]

i was reading the comments and why yall saying this song is not unique? imma head out. this song is a bop. period.

[@Lord_Marquaad]

If it's not unique then what is the song that predates it? I mean it's a pop song, its almost impossible to be new in this genre other than the sound

[@evanphillips570]

Don’t see how people can slag this tune off, massive step up from the first EP and album, huge pop punk chorus and the guitar solo’s in both tracks have been class, keep it up lads

[@alexw7303]

Chorus absolutely rips

[@elai4724]

Why do I seem to be the only one that loves both these tracks so far

[@saniclube]

Because most people think that an artist is obligated to re-write their debut album a bunch of times until they retire.

[@elai4724]

Lotion In Motion you’ve heard two songs how can you say that they’re going to “rewrite” their first album. Bands evolve with time & WSTR haven’t been around long therefore you can expect a change in sound, maybe the album after this... when they’ve matured a bit if ya catch my drift.

[@saniclube]

Ok, you obviously didn't get my point with the first message. I'm defending them, and I agree with you; I love both tracks as well. My point is that some people are quick to hate on a band's new sound just because it's not identical to their last album.

[@elai4724]

Lotion In Motion oh hahahaha, sorry. But yes I agree with you now on that one.

[@alexiapoupier3453]

THIS IS SO HUGE THAT I HAVE NO WORDS! Proud of you guys, well done!

[@Rizz3n]

Gotta be honest, I was really sceptic after the first track, but man, this one's amazing! Excited to hear some more!

[@Lars_lml]

Yup im hyped again. I just pretend Bad to the bone never happened (a)

[@michaelvandoran1377]

Rizz3n dude your everywhere lol

[@erinmiguens]

Lars damn I love Bad To The Bone

[@user-gn1ro5mq1y]

Wstr have the coolest music videos and no one can change my mind

[@thecornerstoneguy]

This song is a banger!

[@IamTheWillrus]

Absolute banger central, definitely a band that doesn't rest on sounds that come easy and tries something new with each release instead. Can't wait for more!

[@SteveMassey]

I was already hella excited to see WSTR next month, but I can't wait to hear this song live. This is a banger.

[@epidude07]

0:13 is this the same dude who portrayed the "birthday boy" in Coast to Coast's "Be Kind" video?

[@liamreynolds1247]

Yep

[@CharlieViking95]

Bouncy af, WSTR is moving up!

[@aidancharlescampbell]

Sounds like an NHL 2004 song

[@SuperToddjohnson]

Aidan Campbell so so true.

[@feverdays9358]

This is so original. I loved Bad To The Bone and this is another one that's so unique and not exactly the same as what every other poppunk band is doing. I love it!

[@bengibson9558]

its pop punk, its meant to fit a damn genre. Go back and listen to DA baby and Little Baby now. lmfao

[@_hana_1214]

These lyrics are such a mood

[@cdtcharles8304]

Sooooo much better than Bad to the Bone. Hope the rest of the album is on this level

[@threatlevel_TACO]

Finally found their sound. Love it.

[@rosssmith1379]

I love the the aesthetic of 70s game shows. The song also SLAPS!

[@apexparker438]

Love the aesthetic of this video

[@corekidkyle7028]

Definitely stoked to hear more tracks!

[@مسلمةفخورة-ف6ط]

dear lord, I cannot stop replaying this one. definitely calling a Crisis in here.

[@skydancer171]

My mind Helped by this song. so fucking underrated :(

[@ephemeral7043]

catchy af , feels like early 2000s again

[@robreeto]

This song is amazing, the whole album is amazing

[@BlizzardonGFS]

What a BOP! Can’t wait for the tour with Neck Deep.

[@cnochannel]

Anjay dah baru tau sekarang wstr. Keep it up! Great song!

[@shooziki]

good song with crisis views. you guys deserve much much more!

[@gopher001]

good music

[@caspeticpaletino372]

Loved their opening in Royal Oak this month. They killed it.

[@tempoyakgorengofficial]

This music video reminds me of all time low’s 6 ft under the sun... goshh. How time flies....

[@capri-sungod2919]

Great job you guys, can’t wait for the album, i looved this!

[@juli5797]

this was so good, wow

[@Patricknyangs]

Epic drum and guitar skills...damn my official GYM track

[@madeleinep.828]

Honestly, their singer’s cute.

[@yozack6269]

This is gold

[@TransFemCombatClub]

This slapped way more than I thought it would honestly. Fair play lads well done.

[@shuwee9202]

i love wstr

[@kaibrooks2309]

This album is sounding like it was ripped straight out of the early 2000's. Music isn't bad by any means and I've actually really enjoyed both tracks but it really does sound like an identity crisis! Guess they haven't fully found their own sound yet but I think when they do it'll be ace. Love WSTR and can't wait to see them live hopefully soon for the 6th time with some new tunes :)

[@SlushTheHusky]

please please please do a show in vancouver bc

[@Alex-cb1lw]

Dude that's exactly me listening to that song in front of my mirror lol

[@thoma57]

Hey guys I'm looking forward on your future concert in the Philippines! Hoping after the pandemic before I graduate from the university you guys come and rock the PH soil.

[@kellycunningham8234]

In love with this song

[@britneyaroca]

People are talking so much shit but this slaps

[@vvenska]

i love the chorus so much

[@yochiie4413]

yooo , this is TOO UNDERRATED ❗☹️💗

[@yozack6269]

How does this not have more views??

[@leoven-rondegracia5396]

D*mn! This song is so *Catchy*

[@KevinInfection]

I can't wait for the new album!

[@nolanannable1743]

Found this band on shuffle and got excited because I thought it was a new neck deep song. Kinda disappointed, but also totally not disappointed

[@hcupo]

Literally this band sounds more neck deep then the last neck deep album

[@kyleTHRASHleigh]

Why does the first verse sounding like Ben 10 opening for me? 🤣

[@hannahmayo6582]

Kyle Thrashleigh omg now I can’t unhear it 😂

[@ilaias_]

God I'm totally addicted to this song

[@ashleybees9436]

THIS IS AN ACTUAL 🅱️🅾️P LIKE WHAT?!?!?!?!?! I LOVE IT

[@ilaias_]

Love this

[@Sofalovesmusic]

Just seen them come up from a friends rt and freaking out because phil, boba and stacy are in the video :D

[@mrredisa.d.d.8566]

The first verse kind of annoys me sometimes, but I love the message of the song, the chorus is catchy and from then it rocks til the end; and it made for an entertaining music video. Props to WSTR for trying something different. :D (P.s. Eastbound & Down is my jam)

[@ThefamedSponge]

Immediately liked because this band is amazing anyway

[@popsr10]

let's get this masterpiece to 100K views

[@popsr10]

they made it

[@lilibet1538]

What does WSTR stand for? Or is it just WSTR?

[@mynameisjake1490]

waster

[@MauledByDogBearsProd]

How do you go from Red Green and In Between to this?

[@PHart1291]

That album was never that great. A lot of you guys let a few sound effects of people spitting and skateboards fool you into thinking they still had a bit of bite to them. Go back and listen to SKRWD then some of the songs on RGOI and you'll see they'd already started gradually moving to this sort of sound.

[@DerUserYT]

still better than this washed down pop rock stuff

[@kynansmusic9724]

I disagree their debut was fucking amazing along with their ep

[@myreaper311]

Fuck that, how'd you go from SKRWD to this? I still jam out to that EP daily. The vocalist doesn't even sound the same, it's like he sings in a higher pitch now. I feel like I'm listening to a With Confidence song.

[@CNSTNT]

ngl id might be down to danny and kieren leaving the band?

[@loser_x]

This bangs

[@Oneal74Mx]

sickkk

[@SamC_182]

I really like this one

[@matthewjenkins7163]

SICK BOIISSS

[@PeopleUNK]

Thkxxx for the NU ERA for POP PUNK.. at least for me 🙏🙏🙏

[@theLOL899]

love it

[@adamjuarez240]

Just Got Introduced To These Lads Last Night On Tour With Neck Deep. They Fucking Slayer That Shit

[@rufusluigiredoble2362]

I CAME IN LATE BUT THIS SONG ROCKS

[@kynansmusic9724]

I wasn't keen at all with the first single bad to the bone, but this is kickass! Nice one guys!

[@rossybearr]

How did I not know cornhole is in this video haha yes Ryan!

[@xthefirethedark]

This is so fucking amazing

[@jeqiu1797]

damn good man

[@mindaugasmazrimas4554]

I listened to everything these guys put out before this record for months and I thought Ben from ND had a side project. This new record is fucking dope and they've completely outshone ND with it as ND's most recent project was shite imo. Good for them

[@LoganMiracle]

Both this and Bad To The Bone took a good couple of listens but I actually dig them now. Still think the last album was better and the EP their best. But still interested to hear more from this record.

[@jessevaillancourt7276]

Fuck yes, Love this band

[@valentina-jo5kr]

with the filters applied, the anxiety dies

[@alenasmolemoreader3584]

The guitars in the beginning give me the red jumpsuit apparatus false pretense vibes...

[@joshisnot11]

I don't really give a fuck what anyone thinks of the music I like I just wish these guys would somehow team up with Weatherbox and make the ultimate "Dude-Rock" album haha

[@chrisg-ll-gher]

ITS MY BOY RYAN MAD LOVE FOR U RYAN 💕

[@liyo182]

Clarity! Clarity! fuck it's now stuck in my head Help!

[@iEatClayArt]

🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@giocapate7053]

This is so fucking good!!!!!!!!

[@rodrigoshow182]

Great!! Gorgeous!! Amazing!! Fucking good!! Pop Punk!!!

[@joseaugustodossantos6488]

"BR" É MUITO BOM "

[@jonathansimbolon5711]

since when they're signed with hopeless rec?

[@kayleda555]

MAJOR Neck Deep vibes

[@thsprsn]

A BUSSY BOP

[@raphyblue2175]

I love fucking WSTR for bringing back guitar solos in the genre!

[@wrathuu]

Idc if this is "unoriginal" it's so damn good 😭🤚

[@xbillyxprod.8016]

1:13 Me & my Friends XD XD

[@searhelvete]

❤🇧🇷

[@thinklater113]

Personally, I think SKRWD and Red, Green, or Inbetween are way better than this new stuff, but this song still isn’t bad. And it’s better than Bad to the Bone

[@kieroncraig3594]

No thanks, i guess I’ll wait for the next album. Red, Green or Inbetween is good enough to keep me going

[@letsroamaround2189]

Strange video but a fuckin banger

[@justingibbons2696]

Hopeless records main audience in obviously pre teens and teens wstr used to be the shit before hopeless.

[@spishyofficial]

This is the absolute shit! Can't wait for the rest of the album!

[@Bentense]

But... Lonely Smiles... to this? Man I don't know

[@kattharsismic]

Damn Ryan... The salmon suit strikes again!

[@Derryckgrohl]

Sounds less like neck deep, going towards another direction I like it
