LYRICS
You’re heading back to the start
You’re not sure how you got where you are
It’s getting late and now the lights are off
No one is ever born a hero
They are broken into one
We can take our time but don’t you take too long
Oh, don’t you notice diamonds in your eyes while you’re looking through your window?
Years have been stolen, living on the inside
Stranger, where are you heading next?
A handful of magazines was all that I could get
Old friend, I’ll go to the places we’ve been and pretend you never left
Oh, don’t you notice diamonds in your eyes while you’re looking through your window?
We are outspoken, living on the inside
We have been there for so long
Okay, I think it’s time to go
I put my fingers to the ground and wept
Okay, I think we’ve said enough
We were never meant to feel that way again
Oh, don’t you notice diamonds in your eyes while you’re looking through your window?
Oh, it gets lonely living on the inside
Did Mat just write a Queen song?
Chad Black heard it the whole way through
First thing I thought haha
Seems like we all thought the same thing.
Was spinning this at work last night and swear to god thought the same thing - glad I’m not the only one!
it's as if Fun. and Queen morphed into a bedroom project.
His song writing ability is so crazy. Normally you can tell when an artist writes their own songs because all their music sound at least a little similar. But not Mat. Writes all his own music AND it’s ever-changing. Even this is so different than ruby. His old music is so different than Luna and Wild Blue Everything. His music is his journal. Truly a great guy.
Those bits with the chorus of voices in the background is borderline Queen level of sound layering. Another masterpiece ❤️
I thought the same thing when I first heard it!!!
one of the most interesting and versatile artists out right now, sick song and video.
I don't know why but this song makes me feel so much nostalgia.
Gives me QUEEN vibes
Quick story: Back in 2016 when Anthony was doing his Pixie Queen tour, I was waiting in the crowd seeing a band set up. I thought, man that dude setting up looks like the singer from Citizen a little TOO much.
I did a quick google search (thinking Citizen was playing in Germany at the time)
That's the day I found he has his solo project.
After the show I met him and mentioned how I didn't know he had his solo stuff.
He said something along the lines of 'yeah this is just for fun' or 'I do this for fun'
Won't ever forget that answer.
Dani' el haha omg just thought that sounds like citizen
dont confuse friendship and FORGIVENESS
This is the cutest song I’ve heard in a long time.
The whole world needs to know about the existence of Mat
i’ve always loved Mat. this song is next level
This is one of my favorite songs ever. It allot of the times makes me legitimately happy. Keep it up mat you’re a amazing singer and song writer
I’ve been looking for this song my entire life and I just realized it.
Luna and the Wild Blue Everything is a masterpiece, these two singles are amazing! Can't wait to see you live next month
Craft D. Pham I’m glad someone thinks this same thing
this reminds me of QUEEN! I love the song and the lyrics, Mat puts a lot of passion in his art. I’m seeing him live in March I can’t wait ❤️
Underated.
If this were dropped in the 70s or 80s would have a billions of views and Freddie would invite him on tour
This song has grown on me like craaaazy! Fuck this song is good
It's actually ridiculous! Easily Mat's best song. The changes, vibe, production, lyrics, variety in vocals and instruments etc.
banger
One of the best songs I've heard in so long. Mat's songwriting ability is incredible
listening to this i could see it being performed on late night or something, choir backup singers and everything. mat is able to make alt-rock that is both highly accessible and incredibly deep at the same time. i know citizen is the main gig but this album really sounds like it could blow up
God this is such a great song. I love when songs switch like that suddenly with that huge vocal switch and the instruments to back it up with the backup singers in unison its just butter to my ears
6+ months after this song came out it's still my favorite song of the year
Mat never disappointed, every single thing that he writes is just astonishing
So unbelievably talented; May you be blessed with the recognition you deserve.
Man I discovered Mat from what I believe was a cover of 'Me vs. Maradona vs. Elvis' by Brand new. From that, I discovered Citizen. From there I heard his own stuff. To see his spectrum of musical talent is incredible. I absolutely love his music.
Side note: if you have to "DJ" and you're afraid people won't like "your music", Direction is a hit for literally everyone I've ever showed it to. Hats off to Mat Kerekes.
When Freddie Mercury joins Modest Mouse.
damn thats spot on
mat te quiero mucho
Good morning, good afternoon, good evening and goodnight.
Hit that wall
Such a talented guy. Pumped to see you in march.
Queen Kerekes
my thought exactly
This is absolutely incredible
this song has my heart. great job mat
Another hit
This is amazing. Freddy Mercury would jam it
Came here cause I thought he sounded a lot like Freddie Mercury. Glad to see others thought the same.
I dont know why but this made me think of Malcolm in the Middle. Anyhow a great song nonetheless!
On repeat all day long!!!!
song has queen energy
You’re the best, Mat kerekes 🥀💎
If you see this I saw you live and I love you man
You're heading back, back to the start
You're not sure how you got where you are
And it's getting late and now the lights are off
No one is ever born a hero, they are broken into one
If we can take our time
But don't you take too long
If we can take our time
Oh, don't you notice diamonds in your eyes
While you're looking through your window?
Oh, years have been stolen, living on the inside
Living on the inside
Stranger, where are you heading next?
A handful of magazines was all that I could get
Old friend, I'll go to the places we've been
And pretend you never left, pretend you never left
Oh, don't you notice diamonds in your eyes
While you're looking through your window?
Oh, we are outspoken, living on the inside
Living on the inside, we have been there for so long
Okay, I think it's time to go
I put my fingers to the ground and wept
Okay, I think we've said enough
We were never meant to feel that way again
Oh, don't you notice diamonds in your eyes
While you're looking through your window?
Oh, it gets lonely living on the inside
Living on the inside
Was not expecting that change at 0:40 , not even mad
Freddie Mercury possessed him :)
Omg this is amazing, love you mat!!!
Can’t believe this song
I wasn't ready
I love Matt and all his music
this song slaps
I wish nothing but success to you Mat, I’ll be seeing you soon in San Francisco brother
Oh my god I’m in love with this song 😍😍
yet another slapper
you’re too good man, miss you
Literally my new fav
Looking back today, jesus did this song call a lot for Feb 2019. That doctor with the mask and the dripping black eyes to name one.

Most of the time, Spotify has suss recommendations, but fuck I love when it shows me stuff like this!

MAT just RELEASE IT AlReAdy
Temaso
As a big fan of Citizen and Queen I love this song
Oh, it gets lonely living on the inside.
Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy.
I love this other side of you Mat. Very 90's
where do they find all these random clips
Goose Games I’m guessing that there’s a guy out there who makes music videos like this for a living and Mat Kerekes just paid him for it. Then they do a little tweaking by adding Mat into the vid for a few shots ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
FUCKING GREAT
