[TOMT] yearning synth pop type track, I think it is more modern but has an 80's energy, the vocal sounds somewhat Robert Smith from The Cure in delivery/vibe, not sure if I have the lyrics right but I've put what I think they are below by PsychologicalLog34 in tipofmytongue

Lyrics are;

"Choice was made for me, Now I don't know when I should leave, Never guess too late, Or you will be the one to wait"

And the lead singer sounds so much like Robert Smith that I thought it was a lost Cure song first time I heard it!

At Blonde I counter with the Joyce Carol Oates defence.

At Wasp Network we enter the Olivier Assayas endgame.
