The Strokes - Soma

Soma is what they would take when
Hard times opened their eyes saw pain
In a new way
High stakes for a few names
Racing against sunbeams
Losing against factories

In your eyes, I am
Stop, and go
In your eyes, I am
Stop, and go
In your eyes

Let's go

When I saw her for the first time
Lips moved as her eyes closed
Heard something in his voice
"And I'll be there," he says and he walks out
Somehow he was trying
Too hard to be like them

And I am
Stop, and go
In your eyes, and I am
Stop, oh darling let me go

Try it once and they liked it, and tried to hide it
Says I've been doing this twenty-five years
Well I'm not listening no more
And these friends they keep asking for more
Oh yeah, oh but that's it
