Recorded for the Radioactive X Girlfriend album, Volver Arriba (due Nov 2016), Deep In The Motherboard is a taste of the slow and heavy psychedelia that mixes RxGF's unique combination of dark electronica and big drums. The song relays the spiritual acknowledgement of a need for salvation in a fallen world, while revealing the brokenness and flaws of empty choices in the ongoing existential struggle. Wrestling with impatience and a lack of faith, the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. The song dares to ask if you will emerge victorious through acceptance of mercy and grace, or demand justice and painfully receive it by its fullest measure?
lyrics
Deep In the Motherboard
4/17/2016 - Seattle
Outside, stuck on the outside
Outside, demise is so cold. I need You.
Inside, the strongman is hogtied.
Inside, so fucked, but I crawl back to Your side.
Inside, alone on the outside
Inside, the bloodiest bride
Outside, the blackest of night sky
Outside, Your hand's within reach—and I’m Yours.
I'm waiting for You.
I'm burning alive in this fire until You come through.
Out of my mind and I hate it
I tried playing the way that You played it
Salvation is close but I'm losing control
You promised me, promised me, and I gave you my soul
But I shouldn't have to wander these streets alone
And I'm stone cold
I'm waiting for you.
I'm burning alive in this fire until You come through.
I'm waiting for you.
I'm burning a hole in my life until You come through.
What I want doesn't want to exist
What I need is the One I've missed
The way that my mind turns, the way that it twists
But the way that I need You is so hard to resist
I'm waiting for You.
I'm burning alive in this fire until you come through.
I'm waiting for You.
I'm waiting alone for You,
Outside.
psychedelic, creative, trippy and (in our opinion) merges some of the best elements of most psychedelic bands of all time. Radioactive X Girlfriend (RxGF)
