Have We Let Our Fear of Dying Kill Us?
The Repeat
RADIO
EDIT
D. C. T.'s third single, "The Repeat," was released on February 12, 2021. Start to finish, this song has taken a full year to complete and when you hear it, you'll see why.
The duo knew right from the start that The Repeat was special, so they took their time... only working on the song when inspiration was at its peak.
From the nebulous, thought-provoking intro... to the funky verses that keep you wondering what's next... to the rock-inspired choruses that punch you into overdrive... the result is nothing short of pure musical perfection.
We promise, you've never heard anything like it... and it's gonna blow... you... away.

lyrics
there’s nothing the floor
has to offer your knees
except the reminder
the painful reminder
that it hurts to please.
it started yesterday
and now, that feeling
just won’t go away
why... why..........?
do i feel like this inside?
they didn’t hear what you said
blew your heart wide open
left you on the side of the road for dead
i know just how you feel
buried by the ashes raining down
around your ferris wheel.
cause we didn’t come here to follow the rules
and i didn’t come here to follow you
what’s been done before’s already been done
i wanna be the only one
to be... like me... to be like me.
do you remember the sky?
do you remember the day
you cut off your wings and you gave them away?
dogma vowed to keep you safe
locked you away in a cave
left you there, rotting away.
cause we didn’t come here to follow the rules
and i damn sure didn’t come here to follow you
what’s been done before’s already been done
i wanna be the only one
to be... like me... to be like me.
you can be a repeat, you can be a repeat
anyone can... repeat, repeat, repeat.
you can be a repeat, you can be a repeat
everybody... repeat, repeat, repeat.
he can be a repeat, she can be a repeat
we can all just... repeat, repeat, repeat.
media says repeat, mom and dad repeat
teach us how to... repeat, repeat, repeat.
ever wonder where you lost your way
wonder why you stumble
when you can’t, just can’t say
this sh*t ain’t for me
got a date with destiny
so real it, you can feel it.
wanna deal it not conceal it
take down the f*cking shield it
jump off the hamster wheel it
anoint it, exploit it
get yourself appointed.
we came here to be free
but they taught me, they bought me
they sold me a lie
gotta try to get by
while inside i'm dyin’ just tryin’
to find my way back, to the place i begin
save myself from the mess i’m in
no sin, no sin, no sin... f*ck.
gonna start again.
cause we didn’t come here to follow the rules
and i didn’t come here, didn’t come here to follow you
what’s been done before’s already been done
i wanna be the only one
to be... like me... to be like me.
