Interpol – Lights
‘We’d like to meet the buyer that is on your life’
‘We’d like to meet the buyer that is on your life’
‘From the hands of Christ to the heads of the Daily Mail, I’ll see you all, and I’ll raise you’
‘I know that it’s not a party if it happens every night’
‘She collects crowns made of black roses But her heart is made of bubble gum’
‘Diet Coke cost more than a bullet for me’
‘Sleep your way out of your hometown’
‘And someone is playing a game in the house that I grew up in’
‘Shadows in my lane Lie long against my heels’
‘When every line speaks the language of love It never held the meaning I was thinking of’
‘I can see a fireside turn blue’
Gray shadows and white meadows, a bitter snow is falling My legs fail me, the ground hails me, distant lights are calling Into your hideout, into your hideout now, Into your hideout, Tearing my heart out now
‘I’ll be a shadow in the cedar room And leave just a memory alone with you’
‘Due to lack of interest, tomorrow is cancelled’
‘I would walk through the tall grass Let the milkweeds pull at me and sometimes I would bleed’
‘Love is a dress that you made long To hide your knees’
“I’m a spoiled child of the great imperalist state I cannot kill my meat nor grow the food upon my plate”
‘Here come the flies so shut your mouth (discard the girl) Here come the flies so shut your mouth (discard the girl)’
There’s a girl that wants to stop Been thinking about having a couple of kids Comb a brush around their heads in the morning To be needed, simply and with meaning
‘We nibble and jest about things that drain and the taste of lust’
How do you say good night to An answering machine?
