Lyrics:
I saw the bottom,
Felt a sinking feeling
She fed me words
She wasn’t even thinking
On & on, say nothing's wrong again
Held up, repeating all our lines, fake blue skies
Painted a picture out of words, turned white lies
On & on tell me nothings wrong again
Nothing’s wrong again
Too close to know, we were playing fiction,
Living in a distant daydream.
Too close to know, everything was fading,
Water we could wade in got too deep
To stand found out firsthand that I was,
Too close to know, we were playing fiction,
Living in a distant daydream.
I know the script isn’t changing,
Although the people you play is.
Your role - the girl in the tower,
But your sweet tooth turned sour.
Wake me up, cause I’m lost in a daydream,
The truth it cuts, like an axe to an oak tree.
Wake me up I’m lost in a daydream,
Truth it cuts, like an axe to an oak tree.

R.I.P ROAM you were amazing! 2012-2022
That vocal hook on the chorus (0:35) sung by the guitarist is GOLD.
Jono Bennett Agreed 100%
plus that chord progression that goes along with it is very rare to hear in western music nowadays. I'm glad to hear more poppunk bands are using it
@@himynameisrobby reminds me of Weezer's Only In Dreams, or early MCR songs
rule #1: every pop-punk single must feature a skateboard
Ro F well technically long boards.
#2 Must feature pizza...
Ro F must feature flanels
must feature animal costumes
@@kuramallama those were definitely skateboards bud
Neck Deep then Roam, what a good week-end 😄
Sarah B. September is knuckle puck don't forget them
chikabidypusspuss movements in October too
then Four Year Strong anyway
And Brand New
Daniel Ashmore yeees I forgot
These guys are traveling along the same path that Neck Deep did. Decent but underwhelming first LP with slight popularity, followed by a slow and steady increase in recognition for what is turning out to be a dope album. Gotta love them Brits.
Sounds good. Why can't this kind of music become popular in the UK?
YOU GUYS DID A FANTASTIC JOB ON THIS ONE!! CAN'T WAIT FOR THE ALBUM
Cat Lemke saaaame 💥
Cat Lemke better than backbone that album sucks compared to the two EPs lol
Been a fan of these guys since the Glamor Kills tour. Insane how much they've matured. What a banger. Would love to tour with them together sometime
Someone recommended them to me like 2 years ago, glad they did. I liked this so much I just did a guitar cover of this with some extra bits on my channel, check it out if ya like :)
Luke Oxendale i personally think the last album was very hit and miss and I'm not a huge but I think this is a big improvement and definitely their best song to date
That would be a hella line up ayy
Man found ROAM from csgo and honestly one of the best bands i have ever listened to its so sad they are splitting up.
I love this song, thanks for making a song like this guys, greetings from Indonesia 🇮🇩
Hey Matt, if you are visiting this song again, remember how hard you used to jam out to it back in college? Hope all is well, good luck future me, past you is rooting for you. - Matt from 4-23-23
hi past and future matt. hru matts?
i will miss this band so much...
Bro, that hook in the chorus 🙌🏻
im still listening to this...i listen to this everyday, its my favorite song 🤘
Why always underrated?
This is still my favorite single out of all the heavy hitting bands releases thus far. The flow and realism of these lyrics really make this song hit hard and match the musical tone really well.
Easily one of the best songs I've heard from these guys!
I WASN'T PREPARED FOR HOW GOOD THIS IS! HELP.
What a weekend... we got Neck Deep's new album... and BLINDSIDED with a new Brand New album, and now ROAM's sophomore album is coming!
This was awesome! Especially how they have characters playing fairy tales to show how they've been 'playing fiction.'
wow i just randomly came across this and this is honestly just a bop!
I am so hyped for the album
Same!
Anna Rosa 🙃💙
Amane E saaaaame 😆
Nice🤙
I just clicked on the video randomly. Best thing I have ever done
I work at journeys and a clip of this song is on our promotion part of the CD we have for the store and I legit wasn't expecting the whole song to be like this
Listening to those CDs all day every day for a month still haunts me
new roam & knuckle puck albums AND my neck deep concert on all the same day. october 13th come quicker please
amy perdoni that's funny. I'm gonna go see knuckle puck on that day!
amy perdoni i'm seeing neck deep on the 13th as well :)
Yeah seeing neck deep on the 13th too
And tfb bruv
Knuckle puck's album leaked !
literally gold
Am I the only the one that gets reminded of the song "MakeDamnSure" whenever I hear him say "Too Close Too Close"
SAME!!! Omfg
After 5 years it is a very good song i love it 🤩
Roam is probably the best pop punk band of these times. Good job guys.
Yess , is incredible 🤘
This already sounds better than anything on Backbone.
did anyone ever thought alex adam and alex collesto was the same person
their voice is literally the same thing
0:27 love a good Holland and Barret
Best song they've ever written
Shoutout to all the Journeys employees that had to hear this song 4+ times a day
This song is a banger, Roam never disappoint.
Awesome song.. awesome band
I didn't know about this band. But this song is good.
this is my first time hearing this band and holy shiT I LOVE IT
Take a shot for every time you see someone in a costume
this band is keep getting better, when neck deep become softer than before we still have roam with hard riffs. good job, roam!
Who was in Brighton yesterday when this song absolutely popped off💥💥
I remember seeing this on kerrang, definitely miss these guys
THESE GUYS NEVER SOUNDED ANY BETTER BEFORE THIS IS AMAZING
Best RUclips recommendation ever!!!
i love this song
Great Band without doubts
I saw the bottom, felt a sinking feeling
She fed me words, she wasn't even thinking
On and on, say nothing's wrong again (again, again)
Held up repeating all our lines, fake blue skies
Painted a picture out of words turned white lies
On and on, tell me nothing's wrong again
Nothing's wrong again
Too close to know

The truth, it cuts like an axe to an oak tree

Why are half you guys complaining about new neck deep. The new album is lit af
RAGEfit listen to Wishful Thinking then The Peace And The Panic then you'll see why
Chad Northey wishful thinking isn't even that good. Lifes Not Out To Get You is better by far.
My point was ppl are complaining cuz they have changed to mainstream sounding punk
They are not even remotely punk anymore, its just pop. That's the issue.
Dominic Pastorelle they're definitely not pop now... Do you people even know what pop sounds like? They sound more like some 2000s emo pop stuff.
Hell yeah! They did great with this!
This is one of, if not the best pop punk song release of the summer...
Heard this on Kerrang radio and I'm in love
Just awesome.
2017 is such a beautiful year, Neck Deep, Turnover, Citizen and now Roam all releasing new albums?! We're not worthy 😭😭😍😍
Neil S. BRAND NEW
don't mind me: i'm just going to listen to this on repeat for the next year
Can't wait to see you guys live again and if there's a new album coming out soon it means that won't be too far in the future 🤙🏻banger btw
This is freaking awesome guys! Can't wait to hear more!!
FANTASTIC....
Honestly the bassist rocks the hell outta those overalls not gonna lie
Fun fact - This music video was shot in Lewes, East Sussex, England. which just so happens to be where i went to college and i never fucking knew this was happening :))))))
feelin my teen years is comin back. ahhhh that feel
they came to the bagel place that i work at today. i didn't realize who they were until i was listening to my playlist. i only know this song. i talked to alex and miles and im still shooooookkkkk
How many costumes do you need?
Roam: Yes
needs more views
LOVE THIS SONG also who else is trying to find anyone from as it is?
i love neck deep & as it is 🙋🏻
One of the guys, can't remember who it was Matt I think? Tweeted the other day that he spotted Ben dabbing in the video - one of the three little pigs. Not sure if it's true though
AustralianKelsey ok thanks :)
Xstormx same
I was completely wrong aha. It was Miles, and he tweeted that it was Andy :) then he screenshotted it
Yo, these dudes really grew as song writers! Stoked.
i just came back to this video and heard ROAM's breaking up.
The band held a close place in my heart, since I found out about them when their CS:GO music kit was added. At that time, I was also going through a lot of gambling issues because of CS:GO. Still, their music helped me through those troubling times.
RIP ROAM, i'm gonna miss them.
Great performance at Groezrock yesterday!!
This is now my favourite song from ROAM I hope the album will be amazing like this song
I just had to comment again. I have been jamming this non stop the past day and a half.
THIS IS SUCH A BANGER!!!
This is so good!!! You guys keep putting out certified bangers.
I love this I'm so excited for the album now
love it
I appreciate this much needed new sound. Did anybody else get that hint of old school guitar and drums? Just an authentic punk sound in my opinion. However I think something I wish I saw more of in bands signed to especially Hopeless Records, is more personality behind the guitarists and drummer. Even if the singing is top notch, I want to hear from the others a bit or at least feel their personality while performing. Any thoughts on this?
Great song
i can't focus on the video at all. the song is conquering my mind
Man I gotta listen to more of these guys
my god this is next level
Yo I legit love the old roam albums and E.P but this is a fucking banger!! By far the best thing you guys have put out!
Best I've heard Roam sound, high hopes for this album
this song and video is so GOOD I CANT 😍😍
Im so glad i found this band
So good!
This kind of song matches your voice. Great job!!
NECK DEEP THAN ROAM! THIS IS THE BEST BIRTHDAY WEEKEND!
This sounds a lot better than their debut album or their viewpoint ep. Been a fan of them since their head down ep. Excited to hear what this album sounds like!
Love this song. Listen to it every day
Melhor música dos caras pra mim👍🏻
Loving the video concept. These guys where awesome when I saw them opening for Lower Than Atlantis!
this song live omg !!
ive always loved ROAM
Seriously can't wait for this album
Ahh this song is so sick I've had it on repeat for the last 30 mins (if we don't count putting the radio on replay xD ) Well done guys !!! And i really love that music video as well! :3
This song is absolutely sick, think this is the next band I'm about to get into.
This is amazing!!
Obsessed with this song & film clip 😍
The singer looks almost exactly like a kid that went to my highschool but older
Ayy a WHSmith store.A pop punk video that british people can finally relate to! haha
This is awesome
