Antidote 04:00
(Allow me to change) It’s not first time but the last time Don't be afraid (Allow me to change) My social unrest, an anxious conquest I know it's strange (Allow me to change) All the things that I've done wrong I’ll re-arrange You’re the ocean, I’m the sea You're the voice which calls to me Cut me down, send me afloat Upon your tides, my antidote Mistakes were made and this I know I'm just a man, I'm trying to grow Into the forest that you need And not just an echo Of what once was me (Allow me to change) I stayed up all night, hoping to come right My fickle brain (Allow me to change) I crave the spotlight, not just the limelight Upon your stage (Allow me to change) All the things that I’ve done wrong I’ll re-arrange You’re the ocean, I’m the sea You're the voice which calls to me Cut me down, send me afloat Upon your tides, my antidote Mistakes were made, and this I know I'm just a man, I'm trying to grow Into the forest that you need And not just an echo Of what once was me All the things that I’ve done wrong (I’ve done wrong) You’re the ocean, I’m the sea You're the voice which calls to me Cut me down, send me afloat Upon your tides, my antidote Mistakes were made, and this I know I'm just a man, I'm trying to grow Into the forest that you need And not just an echo Of what once was me All the things that I’ve done wrong (I’ve done wrong) I’ll re-arrange

Golden Lion 03:16
Into the dark as the twilight unfolds Sedated morning suburbian tales Bold and sublime as I reach for the golden lion Now that the moon's black cloak blankets the sun Surrounded by faces of which I know none I feel all alone so I reach for the golden lion Golden lion take my hand My knees are weak and I’m falling down And I've lost my way But whoa oh ho take me home Golden lion in my heart It's a dying flame but I feel the fire And I’ve lost my way But who oh ho take me home Golden lion in my heart Golden lion you're my road Golden lion take me home My feet are tired and my mind is torn My head moves full circle as I search for the door There in the shadow, you shine My golden lion Golden lion take my hand My knees are weak and I'm falling down And I've lost my way But whoa oh ho take me home Golden lion in my heart It's a dying flame but I feel the fire And I've lost my way But who oh ho take me home Golden lion Golden lion crashes in like a movie scene (I'm free, I'm free, I'm free) Golden lion scatters and carries our wildest dreams (I'm free, I'm free, I'm free) Running full steam just to make it home And take slumber in your heart Whoa oh ho Golden Lion Golden lion take my hand My knees are weak and I’m falling down And I’ve lost my way But whoa oh ho take me home Golden lion in my heart It's a dying flame but I feel the fire And I’ve lost my way But who oh ho take me home Golden lion in my heart Golden lion you're my road Golden lion take me home

about

South African indie rock/pop band The Parlotones have released a new single and music video for “Antidote,” the opening track off their album China. Written by Parlotones member Rob Davidson, “Antidote” plays with a dark theme while wrapped in an upbeat 80’s inspired feel.

OK!Good Records’ special single listing of “Antidote” comes with the exclusive B-Side, “Golden Lion”. The track is an anthemic slice of indie rock, perfectly crafted for the summer. “Golden Lion” highlights The Parlotones’ knack for writing irresistible hooks with its bright production and massive chorus.

Having just celebrated their 20th anniversary as a band, The Parlotones released their new album, China in North America via OK!Good Records on July 28th. China will undoubtedly bring in a new audience for the band, yet stays true to their unique sound that has led them to be South Africa’s biggest selling pop/rock act ever.
