In a prism of light
Alone in the darkness
Darkness of white
We fell in love
Alone on a stage
In the reflective age
Entre la nuit, la nuit et L'Aurore,
Entre le royaume des vivants et des morts
If this is heaven
I don't know what it's for
If I can't find you there
I don't care
I thought I found a way to enter
It's just a Reflektor (It's just a Reflektor)
I thought I found the connector
It's just a Reflektor (It's just a Reflektor)
Now, the signals we send
Are deflected again
We're still connected
But are we even friends?
We fell in love when I was nineteen
And I was staring at a screen
Entre la nuit, la nuit et L'Aurore,
Entre le royaume des vivants et des morts
If this is heaven
I need something more
Just a place to be alone
Cause you're my home
I thought I found a way to enter
It's just a Reflektor (It's just a Reflektor)
I thought I found the connector
It's just a Reflektor (It's just a Reflektor, just a Reflektor)
It's just a Reflektor, just a Reflektor
It's just a Reflektor, just a Reflektor
Just a Reflektor, Reflektor
Just a reflektor (repeat)
Just a reflection of a reflection
Of a reflection of a reflection of a reflection, ah!
Will I see you on the other side?
We all got things to hide
It's just a reflection of a reflection
Of a reflection of a reflection of a reflection, ah!
Will I see you on the other side?
We all got things to hide
Alright, let's go back!
Our song escapes
On neon silver discs
Our love is plastic
We'll break it to bits
I want to break free
But will they break me?
Down, down, down
Don't mess around
I thought I found a way to enter
It's just a Reflektor (It's just a Reflektor)
I thought I found the connector
It's just a Reflektor (It's just a Reflektor)
It's just a Reflektor (repeat)
Thought you would bring me to the ressurector
Turns out it was just a Reflektor (It's just a Reflektor)
Thought you would bring to me the ressurector
Turns out it was just a Reflektor (It's just a Reflektor)
Thought you would bring to me the ressurector
Turns out it was just a Reflektor (It's just a Reflektor)
It's a Reflektor
Just a Reflektor
Just a Reflektor
Will I see you on the other side?
It's just a Reflektor
(AH!)
Will I see you on the other side? (Reflektor!)
We all got things to hide (Reflektor!)
It's just a Reflektor
Will I see you on the other side?
Arcade Fire is a Canadian indie rock band from Montreal, Quebec, consisting of husband and wife Win Butler and Régine Chassagne, alongside Richard Reed Parry, Tim Kingsbury and Jeremy Gara. The band's current touring line-up also includes former core member Sarah Neufeld and multi-instrumentalists Paul Beaubrun, Dan Boeckner and Eric Heigle. Each of the band's studio albums features contributions from composer and violinist Owen Pallett.
Founded in 2001 by friends and classmates Butler and Josh Deu, the band came to prominence in 2004 with the release of their critically acclaimed debut album Funeral. Their second studio album, Neon Bible, won them the 2008 Meteor Music Award for Best International Album and the 2008 Juno Award for Alternative Album of the Year. Their third studio album, The Suburbs, was released in 2010 to critical acclaim and commercial success. It received many accolades, including the 2011 Grammy for Album of the Year, the 2011 Juno Award for Album of the Year and the 2011 Brit Award for Best International Album. In 2013, Arcade Fire released their fourth album, Reflektor, and scored the feature film Her, for which band members Will Butler and Owen Pallett were nominated in the Best Original Score category at the 86th Academy Awards. In 2017, the band released their fifth studio album Everything Now, which was succeeded by their sixth studio album We in 2022.
All the band's studio albums have received nominations for Best Alternative Music Album at the Grammys. Funeral is widely considered by music critics to be one of the greatest albums of the 2000s. The band's work has also been named three times as a shortlist nominee for the Polaris Music Prize: in 2007 for Neon Bible, in 2011 for The Suburbs and in 2014 for Reflektor.

They play guitar, drums, bass guitar, piano, violin, viola, cello, double bass, xylophone, glockenspiel, keyboard, synthesizer, French horn, accordion, harp, mandolin and hurdy-gurdy, and take most of these instruments on tour; the multi-instrumentalist band members switch duties throughout shows.
