It′s been a battle just to wake and greet the day
Then they all disappear like sugar in my coffee
(Sugar in my coffee)
A hint of sweetness but the bitterness remains
The acidity devouring my body
(Devouring my body)

But I am learning to let go
Of everything I tried to hold
Too long 'cause they all explode
Like roman candles

I used to feel everything like a flame
Now it′s a struggle just to feel anything
(To feel anything)
I watch the world from a window on a hill
Everyone moving as I'm standing still
I'm standing still

But I am learning to let go
Of everything I tried to hold
Too long ′cause they all explode
Like roman candles

Ah-woo, ah-woo
Ah-woo, ah-woo

But I am learning to let go
Of everything I tried to hold
Too long ′cause they all explode
Like roman candles
Like roman candles

Death Cab for Cutie Embrace Existential Angst on New Single ‘Roman Candles’

Indie rock band will release their 10th album, Asphalt Meadows, in September

Death Cab for Cutie have released a new single, “Roman Candles,” offering fans the first listen of the band’s upcoming 10th LP, Asphalt Meadows, out September 16 via Atlantic. The distinctively heavy song, along with the rest of the album, was produced by John Congleton.

“‘Roman Candles’ is about the crippling, existential dread that goes hand in hand with living in a nervous city on a dying planet,” the band explained in a statement. “And that the only way to be in the moment is to let it all go.”

Frontman Benjamin Gibbard added, “The lyrics were cobbled from a couple of different songs dealing with my general sense of anxiety; the feeling that the fabric that weaves a functioning society together was crumbling during the pandemic.”

Death Cab for Cutie will embark on a U.S. headlining tour in support of Asphalt Meadows this fall. The trek kicks off September 22 at the Sylvee in Madison, Wisconsin, and culminates with a two-night finale at Seattle’s Paramount Theatre on October 26 and 27. The tour will also feature support from Low and Yo La Tengo on select dates. Tour dates and complete ticket information, including various pre-sales, are available here.

Earlier this year, Gibbard curated Ocean Child: Songs of Yoko Ono, a tribute album honoring the groundbreaking artist. Death Cab for Cutie covered Ono’s 1973 track “Waiting for the Sunrise” for the collection.

The band’s last album, Thank You for Today, arrived in 2018.

Asphalt Meadows is available for pre-order now.

Roman Candles Lyrics by Death Cab for Cutie, from the album “Asphalt Meadows“, music has been produced by John Congleton, and Roman Candles song lyrics are penned down by Benjamin Gibbard, Nicholas Harmer, Jason McGerr, Dave Depper & Zac Rae.

Roman Candles Lyrics

It’s been a battle just to wake and greet the day
Then they all disappear like sugar in my coffee
(Sugar in my coffee)
A hint of sweetness but the bitterness remains
The acidity devouring my body
(Devouring my body)

But I am learning to let go
Of everything I tried to hold
Too long ‘cause they all explode
Like roman candles

I used to feel everything like a flame
But now it’s a struggle just to feel anything
(To feel anything)
I watch the world from a window on a hill
Everyone moving as I’m standing still
(I’m standing still)

But I am learning to let go
Of everything I tried to hold
Too long ‘cause they all explode
Like roman candles

Ah-woo, ah-woo
Ah-woo, ah-woo

But I am learning to let go (ah-woo)
Of everything I tried to hold (ah-woo)
Too long ‘cause they all explode
Like roman candles
Like roman candles
