Chromatics Song--Unbelievable Lyrics

I just found these remarkable lyrics in the Chromatics song "Shadow" from Part 1:

 

At night I'm driving in your car
Pretending that we'll leave this town
We're watching all the street lights fade
And now you're just a stranger's dream
I took your picture from the frame
And now you're nothing like you seem
Your shadow fell like last night's rain

 

Not only were Richard and Linda hinted at in part 1, but the long car scene also!

 

If we take these lyrics as some sort of reflection of or clue about what is going on, they lead to some interesting interpretations!

Don't forget the most important part of that song "For the last time... for the last time...[repeat]"

'I took your picture from the frame' also foreshadows a scene from ep 17, lol.

This season (and especially how Mike says "electricity" in Part 17) reminded me of this song:

High-voltage man kisses
night to bring the light
to those who need
t’ hide their shadow deed

Actually, it was Part 2. Parts 1 & 2 were shown together as a double episode, and the Chromatics performance was at the end of the two part episode.

Yes, that specific song seems like it was composed for TP! I love it! I really liked that it was the first appearance in this season. ♥

I like this. I've got all the music on a playlist and listen to it while I'm working. SO many parallels to the show.

I think Lynch sat down with the songwriters (Jewel, Vedder, Reznor) and explained certain parts of the show.  NIN had their first song rejected as it was too Twin Peaksy - would like to hear that.
