Faded Novelty

Agathocles · Other Songs - Agathocles

What are you gonna do when the novelty has gone ?

First you stabe me in the back and then you take a run,

I knew it was too good, to be fucking true,

Shall I hang myself until my face turns fucking blue ?

But you can stick your super-man ideal up your fucking arse,

I know it wasn't meant to be, but I do fucking care,

I can't change the way I was put on this fucking Earth,

I thought you were accepting me, but in reality you see me as dirt,

The times we spent together, oh man they felt so real,

When I looked into your eyes, love was all I could feel,

But know it seems to be a farce,'cause now you turn your head,

But I hope you'll still remember me, when I'm fucking dead...

Faded Novelty

Faded Novelty stands as a compelling song in the discography of Agathocles, an artist known for exploring themes of alienation and decay within the English experimental scene. The track reflects the band's tendency to blend sharp, observational lyrics with a sound that oscillates between melancholic introspection and energetic critique. While specific album placements for this recording remain fluid in public documentation, the song aligns with a broader body of work that includes titles like Suffocation and Robotized. These pieces collectively establish a narrative of modern disconnection, often characterized by a raw, unpolished delivery that captures the fleeting nature of contemporary life. Faded Novelty serves as a testament to Agathocles' ability to craft resonant musical statements that resonate with listeners seeking depth in their auditory experience.
