about

Sharks is Trauma Party's latest dark wave/post-punk anthem. A sharp, driving track that disguises heavy themes of depression beneath pulsing bass lines and urgent, dance floor energy.

Like sharks circling in the depths, the song uses visceral imagery to capture the relentless pull of dark thoughts, while its infectious rhythm and soaring guitars fight back with defiance. It’s a track that feels both dangerous and exhilarating. An invitation to confront the shadows without losing sight of the light.

lyrics

on a storm tide
you get sharks in the river
waiting there under the bridge
blood sent a message through the water
coming down stream
there is death in the debris
you will feed on me I know
in the depths of the frenzy

on good days
the corpses of angels decay in my dreams
on bad days
nothing rots
they just sit there and scream

after the world shook
strange things came from out of the earth
the moon would not relinquish the sky
the sun lay shattered in the dirt
yelling at passers-by
slurred words and drunken rhyme
singing of better times
and how it felt to be daylight

on good days
the corpses of angels decay in my dreams
on bad days
nothing rots
they just sit there and scream

on a storm tide
you get sharks in the river
