This is their first official single from their new album, 'Drones', which was unveiled March 23rd, 2015 on xFM (with Chris) and on BBC Radio 1 (with Matt).
Information
Matt on Dead Inside: “This is where the story of the album begins, where the protagonist loses hope and becomes 'Dead Inside', therefore vulnerable to the dark forces introduced in 'Psycho' and which ensue over the next few songs on the album, before eventually defecting, revolting and overcoming these dark forces later in the story."[1]
The song sounds like its heavily influenced by 80s artists like Depeche Mode and Prince. Its fairly simple, instrumentation wise, and it features drums, bass, and lightly distorted guitar. The last chorus of the song almost sounds like the last part of Madness.
Lyrics
Dead Inside!
Revere A milion prayers And draw me into your holiness
But there's nothing there Light only shines from those who share Unleash a million drones And confine me then erase me babe
Do you have no soul? It's like it died long ago Your lips feel warm to the touch You can bring me back to life
On the outside, you're a blaze and alive But you're dead inside
You're free to the touch the sky Whilst I am crushed and pulverised Because you need control now I'm the one who's letting go
You like to give an inch Whilst I am giving infinity
But now I've got nothing left You have no cares and I'm bereft Your skin feels warm to caress I see magic in your eyes
On the outside, you're a blaze and alive But you're dead inside
Feel me now, hold me please I need you to see who I am Open up to me Stop hiding from me It's hurting babe only you can stop the pain
Don't leave me out in the cold Don't leave me out to die I gave you everything I can't give you anymore Now I've become just like you
My lips feel warm to the touch My words seem so alive My skin is warm to caress I'll control and hypnotise You've taught me to lie without a trace And to kill with no remorse On the outside I'm the greatest guy
Now I'm dead inside!
