Interpol - Evil

Rosemary
Heaven restores you in life
Coming with me
Through the aging, the fear and the strife
It's the smiling on the package
It's the faces in the sand
It's the thought that holds you upwards
Embracing me with two hands

Write, we'll take you places
Yeah maybe to the beach
When your friends they do come crying
Tell them how your pleasure's set up on slow-release

Hey wait
Great smile
Sensitive to faith not
Denial
But hey whose on trial?

It took a life spent
With no cellmate
The long way back
Saying meanwhile can't we look the other way?

He speaks about travel
Yeah, we think about the land
We smile like all people
Feeling real tan
I can take you places
Do you need a new man?
Wipe the pollen from the faces
Make revision to a dream while you wait in the van

Hey wait
Great smile
Sensitive to faith not
Denial
But hey whose on trial?

It took a life spent
With no cellmate
Find a long way back
Saying meanwhile can't we look the other way?
You're weightless, you are exotic
You need something for which to care
Saying meanwhile can't we look the other way?

Leave some shards under the belly
Lay some grease inside my hand
It's a sentimental jury
And the makings of a good plan
You've come to love me nightly
Yeah you've come to hold me tight
Is this motion everlasting
Or do shutters pass in the night?

Rosemary
Oh heaven restores you in life
I spent a lifespan with no cellmate
The long way back
Saying meanwhile can't we look the other way?
You're weightless, semi-erotic
You need someone to take you there
Saying meanwhile can't we look the other way?
Why can't we just play the other game?
Why can't we just look the other way?

Ando no fim da minha fase post-punk-rock (ou neo-post-punk?) e já há muito tempo que me apetecia postar uma letra :)

Anónimo disse...

e fizeste tu muito bem :)
que fase se seguirá?

topealvim disse...

Provavelmente Jazz graças a uns livros de BD com CDs que descobri na Fnac.

hmm... aquela colecção que traz 2 cd num livro de capa maioritariamente preta? Fi-la quando costumavam sair com o DN, acho. Muito boa.
também fiz esse caminho :) :) :)
ah e ainda estou lá [na fase do jazz :)] e não saio tão depressa. acho que o jazz tem de tudo.

- What is jazz, Mr. Armstrong?
- My dear lady, as long as you have to ask that question, you will never know it.
