In The Night 04:17
The way it moves The light that shone I can feel it in my bones, feel it in my bones It rang so loud I couldn't hear You're too far, I need you near It's quiet now The level's low Everything's all right, everything's all right I hid alone You didn't know I just needed this tonight, I needed this tonight Why's this gotta be so shady? All I need is time (Need is time) Please don't try and push me, baby Just give me what is mine Why's this gotta be so shady? All I need is time (Need is time) Please don't try and push me, baby Just give me what is mine Why's this gotta be so heavy? Time is all we need Don't you push me, I'm not ready Just be here with me Why's this gotta be so petty? Time is all we need Don't you push me, I'm not ready Just be here with me Why's this gotta be so shady? All I need is time (Need is time) Please don't try and push me, baby Just give me what is mine Why's this gotta be so shady? All I need is time (Need is time) Please don't try and push me, baby Just give me what is mine What is mine What is mine What is mine What is mine

Loser 05:08
I hate what I become when I'm around you Fake and nice and meek and mild I swallow all my thoughts and inhibitions And give away my smile You monopolize every conversation As I sit back and act polite Manipulation totally transparent But I'm too tired to fight And then I'm the Loser Always the Loser You get your own way Always have your say You talk over me Until I can't breathe You make me the Loser I wish I had the courage to stand up to you Like I did when I was young But instead, I keep hiding from the explosion And the fallout that would come You cultivate in me a fear of conflict Got me sidestepping landmines Then you prey on that fear to gain more power To protect your precious pride And then I'm the Loser Always the Loser You think of yourself And nobody else You're always the judge Conditional love You make me the Loser You're a hurricane And I'm an abandoned city (Gaslight) You're a bulldozer And I'm the dirt beneath your feet (Gaslight) You're an avalanche Uncaring and unkind (Gaslight) You're a tidal wave And you left me behind Your exaggerated sense of self-importance Makes you so hard to love But still, for you I always made exceptions And you left me in the dust And now I'm the Loser Always the Loser You blame it on me Secretly unkind But then in the end You left me behind Now I'm the Loser Loser Loser Loser

Got you all over my mind again Your words filling up my head Close my eyes and all I see is your face Every time I go to bed Can't stop thinking about what I'm missing And how you got away I'd give every breath that I'm breathing To be with you one last day Day I've been thinking 'bout you lately Are you thinking about me too? I've been wondering if just maybe Are you thinking about me too? 'Cause I've been thinking 'bout you lately Are you thinking about me too? And I've been wondering if just maybe Are you thinking about me too Ooh Where'd you go, lately I can't find you It's like we're lost in a dark abyss Used to light up when you saw my face Now you don't even notice it Every night when I'm thinking about you I wish you'd be thinking about me But then I realize that you'd be hurting And I'd rather that you be free Free (But I still wonder) I've been thinking 'bout you lately Are you thinking about me too? I've been wondering if just maybe Are you thinking about me too 'Cause I've been thinking 'bout you lately Are you thinking about me too? And I've been wondering if just maybe Are you thinking about me too Ooh Thinking 'bout you (Thinking 'bout you) Thinking 'bout you (Thinking 'bout you) Thinking 'bout you (Thinking 'bout you) Thinking 'bout you (Thinking 'bout you) Thinking 'bout you Thinking 'bout you Thinking 'bout you Thinking 'bout you Thinking 'bout you Thinking 'bout you Thinking 'bout you Thinking 'bout you I've been thinking 'bout you lately Are you thinking about me too? I've been wondering if just maybe Are you thinking about me too 'Cause I've been thinking 'bout you lately Are you thinking about me too? And I've been wondering if just maybe Are you thinking about me too Ooh Ooh Ooh Thinking 'bout you Thinking 'bout you Thinking 'bout you Thinking 'bout you Thinking 'bout you Thinking 'bout you Thinking 'bout you Thinking 'bout you But I still wonder

about

The In The Night EP tells a story of connection, and of distance; one of relationships, and of solitude; one of love and of loneliness. These songs were all written prior to the pandemic, but their integral themes still apply, and maybe even more so today.

Lead vocalists Leah Samson and Niki Campbell convey a range of dynamic emotional contrasts through what is truly a genre-defying musical journey, albeit one which remains firmly rooted in The Collective’s signature brand of accessible indie-pop charm. The band is also at its most effective here, weaving complex harmonic textures into a tightly choreographed groove, and featuring soaring guitar and saxophone features.
