MUSIC
A home for the records, sleeves, fragments and places they lead to. Platforms outside. RANDOM APE lives here.

Static Calls
While We Sleep
SONG WORLD
Broken
“And way beyond the desert sun, the darkness swallows whole.”
Bleak, spacious and cinematic — desert skies, unspoken weight, fractured identity and the chasm between people and themselves.
SONG WORLD
While We Sleep
“The mirror shows a stranger’s face, drowning slow in empty space.”
Silence, thread, chasm, broken speech and stars in vacant skies. This is exactly the kind of lyric page RANDOM APE was built for.
REAL PEOPLE.
REAL NOISE.
EVERYTHING ELSE CAN FRACTURE.
02 / WORDS
WORDS
Not just lyrics dumped on a page — the songs as fragments, statements and artefacts.
Falling Through The Seams
We draw our maps in splintered ink,
Borders carved where shadows sink.
Voices hum through static skies,
Each a truth, you’ve been sold a lie.
The pavement cracks beneath our weight,
A fragile world we can't escape.
Our hands reach out, but fingers miss,
Divided by the fucking abyss.
Chorus
Oh, we’re falling, falling through the seams,
Caught in echoes of forgotten dreams.
Can we mend the tear, can we find the spark?
Or do we drift forever in the dark?
The screens they glow, they pull us in,
A thousand tribes where wars begin.
Words like knives, they cut the air,
Building walls we can’t repair.
But in the silence, hearts still beat,
A fleeting pulse beneath the street.
If we could listen, could we see?
The threads that bind you to me.
Chorus
Oh, we’re falling, falling through the seams,
Caught in echoes of forgotten dreams.
Can we mend the tear, can we find the spark?
Or do we drift forever in the dark?
Outro
Together, together, we’re still here,
Together, together, through the fear.
Together, together, break the line,
Together, together, one more time.
Broken
A penny for your thoughts
The silence tears and claws
Like shadows on your skin
Holding tight to every sin
Caught in twisted reason,
Bound by heavy treason,
A heart out in the night
Can you feel it there?
The weight of all that’s broken
Every word unspoken
Another cross to bear
Chorus
And way beyond the desert sun
The darkness swallows whole
The echoes lost in everyone
As fire turns to coal
Reaching out for something more
But you’re tangled in the thread
Each step you take away
You’re pulled back in instead
There’s a chasm, wide and deep
Between who you are and who you keep
The mirror shows a stranger’s face
Drowning slow in empty space
Chorus
And way beyond the desert sun
The shadows claim their prize
No solace left, no place to run
Just stars in vacant skies
While We Sleep
A penny for your thoughts
The silence tears and claws
Like shadows on your skin
Holding tight to every sin
Caught in twisted reason,
Bound by heavy treason,
A heart out in the night
Can you feel it there?
The weight of all that’s broken
Every word unspoken
Another cross to bear
Chorus
And way beyond the desert sun
The darkness swallows whole
The echoes lost in everyone
As fire turns to coal
Reaching out for something more
But you’re tangled in the thread
Each step you take away
You’re pulled back in instead
There’s a chasm, wide and deep
Between who you are and who you keep
The mirror shows a stranger’s face
Drowning slow in empty space
Chorus
And way beyond the desert sun
The shadows claim their prize
No solace left, no place to run
Just stars in vacant skies

ART
The sleeves themselves are part of the project — shifting styles, recurring marks, old textures, photography, collage and fragments.
04 / ABOUT
RANDOM APE
Music without much interest in staying in its lane.
RANDOM APE is an avant-garde alternative project that pushes between post-punk, experimental rock, noise and electronic colour.
Songs about fracture, isolation, people, connection and the strange machinery surrounding all of us.
Sometimes loud.
Sometimes uncomfortable.
Sometimes beautiful.
TOGETHER, TOGETHER
