Lyrics:
Look at me, what have I become?
I am lost I was once a gentleman
But the thief came out in my London town
So I must leave you now
But I will remember the ups and the downs
Goodbye my friends
Goodbye to the money
Adieu to the fuckers that think that it’s funny
I just want to turn the lights on
In these volatile times
Look at me in the apocalypse
My European guilt, expecting instant fix
I imagine all the brutal services
Of ancient infidels
Of all the wounded and the crying witches
Goodbye my friends
Goodbye to the money
Adieu to the fuckers that think that it’s funny
I just want to turn the lights on
In these volatile times
I drove through countries like a marching funeral
In the search of fools and Utopias
Along the lonely roads with all the empty human souls
Filling their heavy hearts
With slum religion and Coca-Cola
Every book is read and I’m paralyzed
Every fist is clenched, but I’m so tired

The kind of light he wants to turn on isn't one you can just flip a switch for.

@@strawbbrylan good for you :D
How to get away with murder gave this band a new fan 😘
I relate to the overall feeling of this song so much right now
I think we've all related to something like this at some point in our life, it usually doesn't last long.
I still remember all the lyrics after all these years.
Same. 😩
i miss this song on spotify
So real. I don’t know why they removed it
It’s on Spotify
@@jalapenobusinesss On Spotify there is a slightly different version, I don't feel it is the same as this one on UA-cam

Honestly I always thought it said auide that to the who the fuck is that!?
Like, he once knew people but forgot who they where
I really need more songs with this same feeling
was really into homestuck in seventh grade, this was one of my fave amvs. just remembered this song about a month ago. im a junior in highschool now but ive been looking for this song for so long and i finally found it by listening to so. many. homestuck songs and amvs but it was so worth it
Same! I found it in 7th grade from homestuck, I’m about to be a junior and I heard it playing in the tv show How To Get Away With Murder and I was like ohhhhh yeahhhhhh
*✨This is my villain theme song✨*
I came here to say something like this too 😭
hi... mr. darcy :)
I'm sad that the Homestuck version got taken down.
[S]Homestuck version: Die
It died just like homestuck itself, struck by a higher power in a way we all knew was coming.
no, never die
we NEVER die
It didn't die,it went god tier
Wes: Sam is Mr. Darcy.
Annalise: 😟😨😧😦😢
LMGAOAHSHSHA
For how to get away with murder they played a lot of music from this band I was like yesss bish get ittttttrtt😭😭💙
When I hear this, I feel like starting a revolution.
I love this song so much. It's one of those that you can have on constant replay. :)
nigga what
Thank you Dylan Barragan , very cool!
I just love his voice and his music srsly I do ...
Love this. What a hook!
This is such an amazing song, honestly. It just clicked with a part of my brain perfectly. Thank you.
My homestuck rear coming back for oc inspiration this is just life I guess
if I had a dollar everytime I listened to this song, I would be rich
Listening to this on repeat during the coronavirus times.
IAMX had determined the fate of an entire generation with this song.
It's essentially the intro and outro of the beginning of fandoms in general.
Homestuck especially and people will look at this comment and go "uhg. Homestuck" Or gloss over this but.
what Homestuck did for the internet was show that people will unite under the absurd, silly and slowly descend into obscurity with age. Fade away, Like all things when they encounter time.
I've been through some terrible things and I'm currently going through a large amount of depression in my life, especially DUE to homestuck, so I began to look back on my past and someone sent this my way and well.
here we are.
So thank you, IAMX. You've made a song that's like a boomerang.
Once you throw it far, you might not realize that it's gonna come back until it hits you in the back of the head.
It's truly mind opening *wink*
What you have written here is informative and inspirational. I personally agree with it. Kudos to you for writing such a masterpiece👍
I love this song and the band in general, in my opinion they are way to underraited, keep it going xD
Check out the unfall remix for this
Even cooler: it’s not a band. It’s a single guy! He has friends who help with live performances and a couple vocals/sounds but otherwise it’s ALL HIM! 😃
I remember hearing this for the first time on How to Get Away with Murder and being haunted by it. My favourite band of all time and forever ❤❤❤❤
volatile times is just about covid-19, IAMX predicted the future
Each twist reveal from the first season (I haven't finished yet) has been so fucking goooooood!!! Like holy shit idk how they get better each episode. Songs help make it :
What show?
@@Destroyer-kr4hm Netflix series called How To Get Away With Murder
I ll play this while leaving the UK 🇬🇧 Thank U Chris! 💫🥺
I just want to turn the lights on
In these volatile times
:(
One of Chris best songs and one of my favorite. Masterpiece!
This really reminds me of Holden Caulfield from 'The Catcher in the Rye'
How to Get Away With Murder anyone?
Me. I went hunting for this song after hearing it.
Yeah
WhatamIdoingwithmylife Yeah me too
WhatamIdoingwithmylife Wow you were looking for this song a year ago and I just found it
Absolutely
I love this song omg😩😍❤️
This may well be my new favorite song currently, reminds me of “Slow Hands” by Interpol. Definitely got me into IAMX, and not just because we share a nickname.
Look at me, what have I become?
I am lost, I was once a gentleman
But the thief came out in my London town
So I must leave you now
But I will remember the ups and the downs
[Chorus]
Goodbye my friends
Goodbye to the money
Adieu to the fuckers that think that it's funny
I just want to turn the lights on
In these volatile times
I just want to turn the lights on
In these volatile times
Look at me in the apocalypse
My European guilt, expecting instant fix
I imagine all the brutal services
Of ancient infidels
Of all the wounded and the crying witches
[Chorus]
I drove through countries like a marching funeral
In the search of fools and utopias
Along the lonely roads with all the empty human souls
Filling their heavy hearts
With slum religion and Coca-Cola
Every book is read and I'm paralyzed
Every fist is clenched, but I'm so tired
Oh dear god… the nostalgia of not hearing this song in 6 years
i love that this song is so easy to mumble-sing with. it's very fun and lazy feeling with a pinch of going batshit insane and doing a swan dive off the handle.
(also obligatory thank you to that one lyricstuck for introducing me to this amazing song)
I just want to turn the lights on In these volatile times
Don’t we all
3:24 */Presses Like 10000000001 times/*
I JUST WANNA TURN THE LIGHTS ONNNN
I will remember the ups and the downs.
Hellsing Ultimate. Nuff said.
"Adieu to the fuckers that think that it's funny
I just want(ed) to turn the lights on
in these volatile times".
Donno what the deal is with the whole remixing for the U.S. thing but a) this is the superior version b) avalanches definitely belonged on the original release and c) this is by and far peak IAMX. "Everything is horrifying and the drugs aren't working oh god"
What’s the US version like? Did they just replace European guilt with American guilt or did they do more or??
Either way.. yeah that’s odd
oof my soul
M so fucking obssessed with this man Right Now
this is the food of my soul in this boooring quarantine
Happy to still see my trash brothers and sisters here xD
It reminds me of HTGAWM
Goth vibes for the win
Luv the way u luv the sky
I thought he said "goodbye to the married" 🤦
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHSHS
When am I going to stop pausing the episode to search for the song
Ngl I was listening to a song and immediately stopped because I suddenly remembered this. I couldn't evrn remember the title so I violently looked way below my ig collection up to 2016 or smtj 💀💀 of course when I searched it up it was related to homestuck LOL
LOOK AT ME, WHAT HAVE I BECOMEEE
Wow
Nice man
you cant fight the homestuck
This is so fucking real
I was looking for this song and a bunch of homestuck stuff came up, I'm not personally a fan kf homestuck so does this song have any connection with the serie or smth?
No. It's just made by fans.
Its was a hmv
It’s usually associated with Homestuck because of this one popular AMV, you should try getting into Homestuck, or watching it-
@@sero.toniii nO DONT TRY TO DRAG ANYONE INTO THAT HELL
the pfp and message combo is a fucking crime scene
This song
It says the kind of things that cross your mind when the modern world turns you from a sensitive, happy and kind human being (which we ALL are in the beginning) into an angry and/or depressed and desperate person, what with all the political and economic disarray.
Extreme violence is what you see and experience everyday. Maybe not you, maybe not today. But someone does. Every day, somewhere. And you can't fix it.
Just some thoughts ig
does anyone know the lyrics in a quiet voice (1:26 - 1:37; 3:50 - 4:08)? it's been like 6 years, i still can't make it out and google is no help at all...
thanks homestuck
I just wanna turn the lights
;~) thanks Hank
this song makes me wish I could take part in the revolution kdshk but sadly I'm stuck at home :(
we have nothing to lose but our chains
yowza, people seem to come from homestuck?
H.T.G.A.W.M. We Are Not Friends. 😈
I love this song to bits but he seriously sounds like that one voice Ethan Nestor puts on
It's going to be okay.
I promise, Chris
What if the thief is our inner violence and anger. Ruining every relationship we have by showing up in a flash when you are tired or stressed.
Why isn’t this on Apple Music??😢
есть ❤
Lol i came from an Off flipnote.
Lol me too
WHAT?????WHAT FLIPNOTE??
{ Forgan } me toooo!!!
Man...flipnote....those were the days
i first heard this in an mlp flipnote
Fighting Siths under the rain
Why did they remove u from spotify
So kool end Fan
Good bye my friend.
Dude, this guy is beyond..which is really god. Cause the the stuff now sucks. He is classic.
Why isn’t this song on Pandora!!!
This feels like it must be included in the Lucifer series
the fucking homestuck amv has more views than the actual song ಥ_ಥ
Fuck the new normal. Goodbye my friends 👋
what's wrong with coca cola? ;(
Coca cola used to include cocaine in the recipe, so that might be what it means
Hell doesn't sound so bad to me
👌
slum religion and coca cola, read the lyrics!
I've always understood it as that it's something so artificial and man-made, getting people addicted to it.

Today just became my birthday
