Marigold is a theme across the record, so we have a scene where lots of marigold petals start to cover the hotel. This was quite an intense particle simulation that took 17 hours to process and render. We also added surreal elements to the video, including infinite hotel corridors and strange space sequences with the doors to the different rooms in the hotel. We’re really pleased with the final look and hope that everyone enjoys seeing the hotel come to life!” __ Lyrics: Fever dream Reach across the streets of legacy Encase a throat of gold The things we tell ourselves in the dark Never heard what was said To weep alone in this racing madness Bright eyed with power (I’ll be the) prettiest at the ball Grandest dreams of all Machine like precision to rid me of concern The empathetic creatures are hunted for reward It’s sorted It’s boring Prosperity Beggars worship in the street Dropping flowers by my feet As it is What it was To all the old egos we’ve sold… How does it grow? Marigold Kiss the ring Miserable degrees A figment of our nightmares I’ll have a little fun with a slightly loaded gun Please, try and hear me out Machine like precision to rid me of concern The empathetic creatures are hunted for reward It’s sorted You’re boring Prosperity Lift Place Proceed I’m standing by your back door Waiting to strike and capture Machine like precision Lift Place Proceed I’m standing by your back door Waiting to strike and capture The empathetic creatures Machine like precision Blinded by my shining star Lurching with my fat cigar A showering of gold Secretly smoldering Can’t find peace within Peace within Trapped in twisted spaces Dissolve the crowd Devour La dee da As it is What it was Things we tell ourselves in the dark In the dark In the dark As it is What is was To all the old egos we’ve sold… How does it grow?
