| The strokes have a habit of being an oxymoron. Their songs are tense and not caring, they’re commital then distanced, they’re totally bisexual musically and it strings you along and you find that plane in a void between everything and its “like a lighting strike in the brain and you’re never the same again”. (a stroke, duh) Anyway, this song, very living end punk, starts off a bit like West End Riot or Second Solution (I dunno it just reminds me of the Living End) Very structured in the music, but the vocals are lazy and that combination is excellent and very Strokes. Another one where apeshit-ness comes out of nowhere and lifts you into a pit of mosh and fast, groovy guitars you don’t know whether to dance or head bang too. Very cool riff’s and bridges. Cool drums again. Cool bass. Cool vocals. It’s very cool. the "he knows its justified to kill to survive" is really good to box too. Coz when i box i get really bored, but that moment in the song is aggressive yet melodic and boxing to it, you kinda start to dance and throw emotion into the punches and its much better, and makes you feel the song and all that...yeah anyway I love the lyrics, I think it’s very well written and it still has that fesh, raw, off the top of my head-ness, but you can tell its totally thought out and heart felt. I think. Alone, Together No choice now, it's too late Let him go, he gave up I gave up Lisa says, "Take time for me" Dropping him down to his knees Ah, chest down... Take me away See I've got to explain Things, they have changed In such a permanent way Life seems unreal Can we go back to your place? Oh, "You drink too much" Makes me drink just the same People tried. Felt so right Giving themselves good advice Looking down sometimes felt nice... He knows it's justified to kill to survive He then in dollars makes more dead than alive Let's suck more blood, let's run three hours a day The world is over but I don't care 'Cause I am with you Now I've got to explain Things, they have changed In such a permanent way Life seems unreal Can we go back to your place? "You drink too much" Makes me drink just the same The first time, it happened too fast The second time, I thought it would last We all like it a little different... |
