about

Beautifully euphoric voices and lush instrumental textures, 'Our Kind' is the brand new single from duo Bird Machine. A commentary on new media, on changing algorithms designed to keep our attention, 'Our Kind' is a poignant song that asks us to question how we consume media. This is delivered with the voices of Luke and Jenna that blend and harmonise perfectly, and sit on top of a rich mix of Piano, drums and guitars to create a riveting second single. The instrumentation creates a sense of urgency in the track, whilst the vocals wash over the top and shine through the mix.

lyrics

Our Kind – By Bird Machine

Verse1
Don’t close your eyes,
Open them wider
You follow the crowd
As the sound’s getting loud

Verse2
You say to yourself,
“No one can pull my strings”,
And a faux public mind,
Will treat you in kind

Chorus
Falling into water,
Fall in line
Losing sight of all that makes us wise
Take a look what's happening to our kind
All I am, a fallen piece in your design

Verse3
Don’t close your eyes
Open them wider
They make you believe
All is as seen on TV

Chorus
Falling into water,
Fall in line
Losing sight of all that makes us wise
Take a look what's happening to our kind
All I am, a fallen piece in your design

Instrumental

Chorus
Falling into water,
Fall in line
Losing sight of all that makes us wise
Take a look what's happening to our kind
All I am, a fallen piece in your design

Falling into water,
Fall in line
Losing sight of all that makes us wise
Take a look what's happening to our kind
All I am, a fallen piece in your design
