Omnimar – Wet

A storm of emotions in a synth pop guise

Like a bolt of light­ning on a stormy night, Omnimar's latest track ‘Wet’ strikes right at the heart of the dark pop scene. From the very first second, I was drawn into a mael­strom of oppress­ive emo­tions and sad beauty that refused to let go of me.

The dynam­ic between the calmer verses and the explos­ive chor­us is the centrepiece of this song for me. I find it impress­ive how Omnimar man­ages to integ­rate elec­tro rock influ­ences without resort­ing to harsh elec­tric gui­tars. Instead, they cre­ate a sound­scape with rich elec­tron­ic beats and bom­bast­ic vocals that is both mel­an­choly and euphor­ic at the same time.

The lyr­ics of ‘Wet’ per­fectly reflect the emo­tion­al roller­coast­er that the song con­veys music­ally. Lines like "Till this mad world will end, I'll paint all col­ours wet, I'll wash it all away" touch me deeply and rein­force the feel­ing of tran­si­ence and longing.

Lyrics of "Omnimar – Wet"

three two one
now breath out
you want to run away
but we both know it’s not enough
where you’re the sun I am the rain
I know your wayswon’t let my secret fade away

you say you love me for my sick look
bring­ing only bad news
for i nev­er upset you
don’t under­es­tim­ate me
my feel­ings are so random
hit me like light­ningy­ou will nev­er leave me
you will nev­er stop me

we’re gonna have it

Till… till this mad world will end
The history’s erased
Half milky way we fell
Last raindrop’s gonna freeze
Till… till this mad world will end
I’ll paint all col­ours wet
I’ll wash it all away
I’ll wash it all away

oh no I did some­thing wrong, again
but no bur­den on my brain
oh shame on shame on me
What I gotta do? i gotta say
oh i don’t really care
if i upset my baby
he doesn’t break me
nor hate me

and he loves me for my sick look
bring­ing only bad news
for i nev­er upset you
don’t under­es­tim­ate me
my feel­ings are so random
Hit me like lightning
you will nev­er leave me
you will nev­er stop me

we’re gonna have it

Till… till this mad world will end
The history’s erased
Half milky way we fell
Last raindrop’s gonna freeze
Till… till this mad world will end
I’ll paint all col­ours wet
I’ll wash it all away
I’ll wash it all away

Till this mad world will end
I am your ***
I can be blue i can be red
Till this mad world will
I am your enemy
But I am the best you’ve ever had

Till this mad world will end
I am your ***
I can be good i can be bad
Till this mad world will
I am your enemy
But I am the best you’ve ever had

Till.. till this mad world will end
The history’s erased
Half milky way we fell
Last raindrop’s gonna freeze Till
till this mad world will end
I’ll paint all col­ours wet
I’ll wash it all away
I’ll wash it all away
