LYRICS
So light me up my little Projector,
And eat me up like Hannibal Lector,
Then turn us from a friend into strangers,
Cause you'll never admit that you're wrong,
Enough's enough, Projector,
So sit us down and give a new lecture,
Then wear us out like ugly old sweaters,
You bummed me out till I wrote a song.
Enough's enough, Projector.
Shut the fuck up please,
You flap your gums until I wanna pull my teeth,
You may invade their brain,
And wear them down into insane to say,
"Oh wow!", "Oh word!?", "That's wild, I agree."
But that cannot be me,
I see through every smile like twenty thread count sheets,
Apologize or die, you'd choose the latter not the right to be a decent human being just for once.
I'm talking to a wall again,
Why do I even try?
Shh, listen more talk less,
I've seen the film before and I know how this ends,
You tell me how you're right to light relationships on fire,
And try to lock us all inside because you're wrong.
Look at your success,
You shit on all your friends and blamed 'em for the mess,
But I don't need to believe everything that I read, I can see there's a demon that's stealing my peace, a disease that never leaves until I sing through gritted teeth.
If stubborn is as stubborn does,
You've done enough tonight,
I'm talking to a wall again,
Why do I even try?
#SetItOff #PROJECTOR #Elsewhere
I just want the whole album right now. Please?
No fucking way, Winky Dink is a SIO fan
Same 😭💞
March 11th
We have to wait 49 days
sameeeee
It might be a problem when you can sing all the lyrics even before the song releases but here we are. Absolutely love this and cannot wait for the full album! 💙
Exactly 😂 I was on the concert yesterday and I think I was the only one who sung the lyrics to Projector
As a fan who's been here since Horrible Kids please keep the new music coming 💙🖤 I love it
factual
Ayyyy Horrible Kids gang
So u play osu?
@@yvesification1123 who doesnt
hell yeah
The last songs you've released taste kind of different from what we're used to hear from you yet they're so amazing!! This new era really excites me, the absolute change in the theme, how much dedication you put on every scenario, video, song and the fact that you're creating a whole backstory for the new album.
I'm so proud of how far you've come
I've been a fan since 2016 so being able to see you guys grow, evolve and get more recognized is just awe-inspiring
Love from Mexico
Same I found them and became a fan in 2016 as well 16 year old me needed set it off I'm so excited for the rest of the projects
I liked their old music
@@dixiethealien1221 I like both.
@@dixiethealien1221 you don’t like their old music anymore? I think you meant to say *I like their old music*
SIO have always been a pretty diverse band when it comes to their sound tbh, I don't think this album is a departure as much as it is a natural progression of their already constantly-shifting style
I have never clicked on a video so fast, I cannot wait to see what you have in store for us! I love your music!
Update, that was one of the best songs I've heard, this band never ceases to amaze me
U and me both @gabe !!!🤯😍
@@theyahikoo same lol
@@theyahikoo RIGHT
SAME
So, theory time:
From a lore perspective, this seems to be the part of the story where they realize how much control they've given up. At first it's just on stage, but then their real life begins to be invaded and disturbed, only to find out their own physical actions are even being hijacked by the faceless higher ups. They're trying to enjoy their new life of fame but find they can't because it's no longer under their control. The image they give off publicly is nothing more than a "projected" image that you're wanted to see.
My personal take on this song is that it makes me think about somebody who projects their own version of you onto you instead of getting to know who you really are and isn't willing to properly talk out their problems with you so they choose to be angry and hateful instead.
I mean within the lore and the ARG, the Midnight Society did say something about subjects possibly gaining sentience, and that appeared to be happening once in a while in here, as well as the fact that it connected back to Skeleton.
@@TheLastJack They're realizing there not in control and that somebody else is.
It continues the theme of Artist Vs Industry that Skeleton started. Skeleton, at least my take on it, was about them having to choose whether to hold onto their morals and values, the things that make them unique, and stay exactly where they are or merely become empty shells for people to paint into something new and popular: skeletons to be built on. It's about keeping individuality or gaining success, and I think they've done a pretty good job of portraying it both through the new style of music and the brighter costume choices, something that heavily contrasts every other point in their career
This can also be linked all the way back to Hypnotized with Cody standing in front of the mirror. What stands in front of the mirror is what *_we_* see; however the one Cody sees is *_himself_* trapped into a fabricated vessel (think of it as himself trapped in the upside down). We can also connect Hourglass into this with Cody being trapped in the hourglass and scared for he knows time is running out (no control over himself means things can go wrong from there). Furthermore, those two music videos have the same grim look to them whilst both Skeleton and Projector (and the entirety of Elsewhere I presume) are bathed with ludicrous colours of neon. Agreeing with Oran, it indeed contrasts to the vibe they had since, I don't know, Horrible Kids?
Not just that, if we were to go back with "Cody seeing himself differently in the mirror", "Killer in the Mirror" enters the chat. Having no sense of self-identity even after looking at yourself at the mirror is *_indeed_* deadly because you're forcing yourself to look like someone you're not to the general public. Sure, the reception is positive but are you really feeling it? Are you happy with it?
I'm very curious to see what type of lore they'll come up with Elsewhere because from the looks of it, with the "multiple universes getting mashed together", their old works might make a cameo (or even to the point where they're part of the story but that's just me reaching too far lol).
@@Pluvillion there are also actually a few frames in Hypnotized where the hourglass flashes onscreen, even though this was a song released on Upside Down, BEFORE Midnight
The lyrics has Hypnotized feels. Love it
It also feels like a reference to Jem and the Holograms.
I was getting a bit of an nysnc vibe with the one songs where they're dancing puppets
I don’t regret staying up for this, it was amazing. 100% worth it. Set it off is and will always be my very favorite band😩✨
Same 😩
I never thought it could get better than midnight, then there was after midnight, skeleton, and now this. You guys are literal geniuses. I never imagined something could sound so good and I just know that the rest of the album is going to be just as wonderful and catchy
This shit bumps harder than Skeleton! I already can't wait for the next song! Love you guys! 😁
I like skeleton more but this was such a fun song to listen too
@@theoutsiderjess1869 i agree
Pretty much all Set it Off songs hit hard. All are catchy in their own right
@@lemurofchaos9672 Skeleton hits harder though in this case
well not every song is good. Almost every song of upside down is pretty bad in my opinion, but the other albums are amazing
i’m literally buzzing with excitement i can’t wait for this album. this song is so fucking good
Not only catchy, but also a coherent story that I can actually understand. Additionally, you rely on lyrics, rather than background, which is something I really enjoy.
The makeup and acting were also fantastic and the camera work is amazing!
THIS IS AMAZING
CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEW ALBUM IN MARCH
***UPDATE***
LOOKED AT THE ALBUM & MERCH AND IT'S SO COOL
I…i….SPEECHLESS…….
I LOVE when artists just conect everything together…..this is….AHHHHHHHH
This feels like a don't hug me I'm scared episode and I am all for it
I'm literally so obsessed with the color it's almost sensory overload every time I watch these but it's so amazing also I love that it's looking like the albums gonna be chronological that's pretty sick
The riff, the rapping, the melody, wow! Set It Off has been unbeatable lately. I got my pre-order for the CD already put in.
Would be a blast if their was someday a video where they meet CG versions of their older styles and duet all their eras together
I'd love a Horrible Kids+Midnight+Elsewhere song.
@Lillian Eve i would love a cinematics, duality, and elsewhere crossover
@@theoutsiderjess1869 I'm not a big fan of Duality tbh. NME is pretty good but that's about it.
this is shaping up to be my favorite set it off album yet (although to be fair, my favorite sio album is typically the one i’ve listened to most recently)
This album really blew them up. I hear the songs everywhere rn
Hacen arte... Demasiada, tanto que mis oídos están bendecidos. Amo su música y mi novio es su fan! Gracias a él pude conocerlos, me siento realmente bien de ahora escucharlos. 🌼✨
Están geniales ✌️👍
Mal. Son buenardos.
Son GOD

So light me up my little Projector
Thank you for doing this for us all sweetheart :)
cody carson looks so good with pink hair
i almost missed the orchestral vibes from the synth and bass. This new era is still the old one I loved
This is the best thing to wake up to.
I would love them to have a song with Yungblud. Oml these artists together would be SO GOOD!!!
THEY SAID ANOTHER DAY ANOTHER SLAY
As a fan since Hush Hush it’s great to see that you’re all still slaying it with amazing music 💙💙
ANOTHER HIT FROM THE BOYS I LOVE THIS !!!
zach looks so good with the yellow hair.. like.. he rocks it so well :3
to be fair this is not what i was expecting at all, but this.. this is brilliant. everything about this song and music video is brilliant. amazing work boys, i cannot wait for the new album.
Their old music: ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Their new music:❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I liked the old music more in my opinion 😞
@@rosemary.777 Yuh but they're both fire
Me: Time to sleep
*Set It Off drops a new song*
Me: Sleep can wait
Bangers after bangers with this band
seeing this song live at the elsewhere tour and now hearing it officially is such a satisfying feeling
Projector is on repeat until further notice
I love this era
Cody rapping will always be one of my favorite things
I met this band with Wolf in sheep's clothing, still here listening to good music
I'm loving the pink hair tbh
DROPPED EVERYTHING FOR THIS
Dude they never stop making amazing hits.
This slaps so hard! Will we get an 8-bit version as well? The slowed and reverb for skeleton has me hoping for a special version!
oh, steven universe on the profile picture, cool)
I hope they upload the 8-bit version of Skeleton and Projector I love them so much 💯❤
Skeleton sends me to a different universe, the slowed reverb will end me 😵
I was like 'Set It Off...New Song?! *Clicks*' it did not disappoint. Love SIO.
When you first hear that this music is 'catchy', you think "Yeah right that's what they all say". BUT this music here is gonna be stuck in my head for quite a while.
OMG, TODAY IT'S MY BIRTHDAY, THIS FEELS LIKE THE PERFECT GIFT
My favorite band has changed throughout my life but Set It Off is the one band I always come back to. I end up listening to them for hours. Keep up the incredible work guys!
...WHAT. IS. THIS.
*Exploding heart* times a million.
I haven't been more hyped for an album since Midnight and Midnight is my favorite album of all time. I got a special kinda feeling this time too
I love the projectorheads!
Saw this song performed live in Dallas and I was stoaked for the video to come out and it did not disappoint! Good job guys!
Same!! Can’t believe I got called out by Cody towards the end of the show lmao.
I was there too!
i just saw them live in Orlando!!!
@@squidney6267 weren’t they awesome!
@@kimberlycallaghan7775 girl yessss. i nearly cried cause i've been following them since i was like 12
Never been so excited for an album. This bops
LO MEJOR DE LO MEJOR SET IT OFF DESDE 2010 ESCUCHO SU MUSICA NO PUEDO ESPERAR PARA EL NUEVO ALBUM
The colorful hair adds so much to the video.
Ok I recently found set it off and at first kept skipping them but after a few times of them coming up I left it and it grew on me... now yall are one of my top 5 bands firmly sitting at number 3 next to falling in reverse and a day to remember
This song is a blast! Can't believe I lived two years without knowing it. 😢❤
This is so rad!! The music, the outfits, everything is so cool
Set it Off never misses!
I just saw you sing this last night in Atlanta, and then I wake up to see you've released this music video? Absolutely fantastic! The song is great and I love how chaotic the music video is. Oh, to be in a conga line with a camera head person...
I am obsessed with the styling in this video -- wardrobe, hair & makeup did right by you guys
I've never know a whole lot of bands that still sound good after a long time. But these guys...these guys do
I can't wait to spend all of my time perfecting the second verse at full speed
🎙I'm beginning to feel like a rap God
been following you guys since duality and im so happy to watch yall grow
MAN I kid you not when I say I was literally going to lay down. I got ready for bed and everything, opened youtube, and BAM new video uploaded on my homepage. I wanted to sleep but now this is gonna play on loop for the next hour--
*Not that I'm complaining about a new song.*
I’m so obsessed with you, guys! Thank you for making amazing music!
I just found this and I’m obsessed.
esto es hermoso :"D, me alegran mis dias con su musica los amo y porfa sigan asi
Literal, I feel u
y'all I just got the notification while I was watching supernatural. Loving it so far
Obra de arte como siempre 💕💕💕💕
I just had the worst panic attack I think I've ever had and you guys were the only thing that calmed me down. This band had been my comfort band for years, and seeing you live was a dream come true. (Hearts on fire was AMAZING). Thank you, for just existing and being you. You have no idea how much it means to me, and so many other people.
Me encanta esta canción, el ritmo es un poco diferente al resto de canciones, esta increíble!.
I remember listening to this song for the first time back when it was a week old.. time has flied 😭
E L S E W H E R E
-love your music and this type of history (ARG type) that you did, can’t wait for the full album to come out
Dude it’s literally 7am rn and I’m starting this day off with a bOP-

THEY DON'T MISSS youtube recommend this to everyone
I love the fact with each new album lately they keep going bigger with hair and make up.
This so is soooo freaking good, this album’s gonna slap
I normally don't like official music videos, but this is awesome!! You guys got super creative, the vibrant colors and strangeness is really, really cool!! You guys nailed it, you're so underrated... This song is one of my favs from you guys!! Keep up the amazing work!!! ❤
srsly the best song ever
huge fan, been listening since i was in freshmen year of highschool. your music has gotten me through hard times and im so glad that a new album is new coming out. it was funny since the last album came out exactly on my bday and now this came out a week before. love these little birthday gifts. love you guys and cant wait to listen to the full album
I found them in my junior year of high school 6 years ago I found the song partners in crime and wolf in sheep's clothing but quickly became obsessed with Bleak December, I'll sleep when I'm dead, nightmare and plastic promises
@@theoutsiderjess1869 when I first found them I used to think bleak December sounded bad but now 7 years later it’s lowkey my fav
7 years and set it off still doesn't get old
While the UK tour has been postponed, this is a good replacement! And with the new album having a release date too! Can't be much happier than that.
Is it postponed in Utrecht as well? Do you know? Because my ticket site is acting up haha
Ugh I'm obsessed
I've been a fan of Set it off for years. I first started listening to their music when I was in 6th grade going through hard times and some abuse. I got out of the situation and whenever I'm feeling depressed Set it offs music is my go to. I'm about to start my junior year in high-school and I am still listening. I sincerely hope anyone who is going through hardships has something to help them through that situation like Set it Off helped me. Tysm Set it Off and keep making amazing music! ❤
