Interpol - Toni

Flame down Pacific highway
Still in shape, my methods refined
(Yes)
Long gone superstitions falling
Be seen how my memories refused

I'd like to see them win
I like the inspiration like it's going in the right direction
That's to me
I'd like to see them win
It's my kind of aspiration like it's going in the right direction
That's to me, to me, to me, to be

The aim now is perfection always
The aim now is fuckin' leave it behind
(Yes)
Oh no, through perception's hallways
When the change comes we'll live in green skies

I'd like to see them win
I like the inspiration like it's going in the right direction
That's to me, to me, to me
I'd like to see them win
It's my kind of aspiration like it's flowing in the right direction
That's to me

Who are you to doubt us?
Who are you to doubt us?
(Who are you to doubt us?)
Who are you to doubt us?
Let me tell you ‘bout the wayward starlet, face adorned with bones
Looked me up and down, said "babe we're soaring, but you don't notice"
Let me tell you ‘bout the wayward starlet, face adorned with skulls
Looked me up and down, said "babe we're soaring, but you don't notice"
Above the ocean
Above the ocean
Above the ocean
Above the ocean
Above the ocean
Above the ocean

Interpol - Breaker 1

Come back, come back, I'm the warning
Come back, come back, breaker one
(Come back, come back, breaker one)
Come back, come back, I'm the warning
Come back, come back, breaker one (I'm the warning)
Come back, come back, breaker one

It's in the way that I hold you tight, sleep beside me
There is a slow plugging at the tire, decent slow me
And I feel my teeth make oh the ache inside, go away
The vacant mind just waves some explosions on the bright side

Come back, come back, I'm the warning
Come back, come back, breaker one
(Come back, come back, breaker one)
Come back, come back, I'm the warning
Come back, come back, breaker one (I'm the warning)
Come back, come back, breaker one

You've seen the way how it happens right, this feast inside me
It leads the way then it's at my side, it feeds 'til starving
And I feel my teeth make oh, the ache inside, go away
My all holidays, some reverence of a wild side
I'm inclined 'cause I've seen my dreams defied
And I take my turn, in stride to sink my feet away

Come back, come back, I'm the warning
Come back, come back, breaker one

It's begun, braves become
Makes weak I just need you so much
Need you so much darling
And I see my teeth make oh, the ache inside, go away
The patience to climb all day
Some reverence of a mountain
I'm inclined 'cause I need my needs to get by
And I take my turn in kind
To sink my feet, away

Come back, come back, I'm the warning
Come back, come back, breaker one

Interpol - Fables

You're truly erupting too hard
That's why you're a sizeable God
And I am decidedly cold
I ain't taking the fall
I have forsaken you all
I was mistakenly chose
Now I'm mistaking my own
You can't take me

It's time we made something stable
We're in the sights of perfect danger
All is lost to the time beyond fables
And the circular rise of guileless angels
Say all is fine

I'll do it over again
Last time I was drunk in the Seine
Now I'm back drinking again
It was Satan, that's known
This running around without jokes
A boarded up house on the coast
And time is making me broke
You can't take me

It's time we made something stable (something)
We're in the sights of perfect danger (something)
All is lost to the time beyond fables (something)
And the circular rise of guileless angels (something)
Say all is fine, fine (something)
For the sake of time

Come on baby, it was a pleasure to know
You're so amazing

I do it all for the glow
I stand unbearably close
How could you possibly know?
I ain't taking the call (call stop please remember)
I have forsaken you all
I was mistakenly chose
Now I'm just taking my own
You can't make me

It's time we made something stable (something)
We're in the sights of perfect danger (something)
All is lost to the time beyond fables (something)
And the circular rise of guileless angels (something)
All is fine, fine (something)
For the second time

Come on baby, it was a pleasure to know
You're so amazing
Higher, higher than trails of meteors (come on my baby)
Come on baby, it was a pleasure to know
You're so amazing
Higher beyond the flames of meteors
Come on baby, it was a pleasure to know
You're so crazy
Higher, higher than tails of meteors

Interpol - Renegade Hearts

Draw me a million years
And I'll probably make them my home
Eternity brought me tears
But it's the cold I collect on my own
Call me for sake of change
It's a custom how gluttons do
Infinity will turn the page
But not forever, not for you

The serpent spins
Around the silken cyclone
The world will bend
For one alone again
For one alone

Call me from any age
And hope the godly will help to steer
Subliminal we turn the page
But you can't save the programmable fears

The serpent spins
Around the silken cyclone
The world will bend
For one alone again
For one alone

No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no

Out on the wing we go
It's starting to feel like summer
Out on the wind where some will get stolen
But not forever

The serpent spins
Around the silken cyclone
The world will bend
For one alone again
For one alone

Roll up the window
You might get stolen
Roll up the window
You might get stolen
You might get stolen

Met a girl then
One who'd stand by me
Renegade hearts
Make escape art
Renegade hearts
Make escape art (caught me off guard)
Renegade hearts
Make escape art (caught me off guard)

Met a girl then
Said she'd stand by me (caught me off guard)
Renegade hearts
Make escape art (caught me off guard)
Renegade hearts
Make escape art (caught me off guard)
Renegade hearts
Make escape art (caught me off guard)
One who stands by me

Interpol - Roland

Hey, my best friend's a butcher, he has sixteen knives
He carries them all over the town
At least he tries oh look it stopped snowing
My best friend's from Poland and oh he has a beard
But they caught him with his case in a public place
That is what we had feared

He severed segments and secretly liked that
He always took the time to speak with me I liked him for that
He severed segments and secretly liked that
He always took the time
He always took the time

C'mon now pussycat

My best friend's a butcher, he has sixteen knives
He carries them all over the town
At least he tries oh look it stopped snowing
And my best friend's from Poland and oh he has a beard
But they caught him with his case in a public place
That is what we had feared

He severed segments and secretly liked that
He always took the time to speak with me I liked him for that
He severed segments and secretly liked that
He was growing on me
He was growing on me

Interpol - Passenger

I'm on the other side of make believe
If I go unchecked what will the world make of me
I don't feel hunted but I fear faithfully
I would never cheat
But I might take advances

These little statements are mere replacements
For something they stole
Times I was laughed at
When I'd fall into a hole
Fade into a flashback
Real close

Free from these fables
We can grow
Blossom into bodies
Too frail to hold
As I commit to this high wall of love
Will I ever sleep
While I wait for the world to give it all back?

There's nothing so sacred
I ain't tried to chase it
I need something to hold
Someone to grasp at
When I fall into a hole
With a mountain on my back
Real close

Save me I'm in my head
Save me I'm in my head

Please, you know why
Please, you know why
Fall, fall

There's nothing so sacred
I ain't tried to chase it
I need something to hold
Someone to grasp at
When I fall into a hole
And fade into a flashback
Real close

Save me I'm in my head
Save me I'm in my head

Please, you know why
Please, you know why
Fall, fall

Interpol - Gran Hotel

On the streets of Cozumel
Where my age is slow
The mirror treats my light
To a grey refrain

On the streets of Cozumel
Where the faces glow
I would gladly give my life
To be there

So close I'm taking notes
On my brain
Will you be faithful?
Will you be my origin?
I'll leave these obsolete gardens
A-burning
Cuz I'll do anything
To know you're here again

On the streets of Cozumel
Where my age is slow
The mirror treats my life
To a grey refrain

On the streets of Cozumel
Where the faces glow
I would gladly give my life
To be there
To be there

All that we've got to be is candid
And gentle
To be certified
And I really love to mentor
Sometimes it's hard to be expansive
Need to free some light to enter
Reflections ethereal to render
I see you in everything

I see you in everything
I see you in everything
I'll be there

I see you in everything
I see you in everything
I see you in everything
In my truly vacant heart

I see you in everything
I see you in everything
I see you in everything
I'll be there, I'll be there

I see you in everything
I see you in everything, and I
Would gladly give my life to be there
I'll be there

Interpol - Anywhere

We try to invade
Put some of us in each
At least try hold the other
In the right light
This sky's gonna break
Some of us die heroes
At least they'll never suffer
At least they'll always

See the ocean
I could go anywhere
I could go anywhere
So free in my place in the sun
I could go anywhere
I could go anywhere

You know all about me
That's what's so frightening
You know all about me
Seems my moon is traveling

We try to engage
Softened up by peace
At least I had my taste
Of the nightlife
Be kind to the babes
Cuz someday you might need them
At least they'll never suffer
At least they'll always

See the ocean
I could go anywhere
I could go anywhere
So free my nature to run
I could go anywhere

You know all about me
That's what's so frightening
You know all about me
Seems my moon is traveling
You know all about me
I won't be tied with heartstrings
I search high and low
Seems my moon is traveling
Always

See the ocean
I could go anywhere
Besides my only care's me
And my face in the sun
I could go anywhere

Interpol - Wrecking Ball

Can it be true?

Nobody warned you

Nobody told you

To make up your mind

Nobody told you

That I could just waltz through and shake up your style

I'm inside

And I change it all from inside

Strange and fine (Don't wait)

Interpol - Success

Dreams of long life

What safety can you find?

See the great unknown

That shade for miles

Good eye

I'm the good guy

Dreams of long life

What safety can you find?

If the sea was that strong

Maybe we had, maybe we had to fly

Was a good try

I'm a good guy

As high as the day

I read the papers

Before crime will pay

I'll learn to bury most beliefs

I have succeeded

I won't compete for long

I'm not supposed to show you

I've got two secrets

But I only told you one

Dreams of long life

What safety can you buy

If the sea was that strong

Maybe we had, maybe we had to fly

Somebody make me say no, no

Interpol - Flight Of Fancy

Who reigns in that silence

When you sleep in the afternoon

You reach out to emptiness

Until the reaching out feels empty too

We'll come to my darling or

We'll wake up to someone new

Who makes up the fundamental you

This was made for me

This is make believe

Like slight of hand

And a custom vagrancy of mind

I demand it

It's just my agency

My flight of fancy

You reach out to freedom

You reach out to be consumed

There's a part of you starving

There's a part of me that over blooms

The sun stains the ocean

The pink house returns to gloom

And becomes the fundamental

The elemental hue

This was made for me

This is make believe

Like slight of hand

And a custom vagrancy of mind

I demand it

It's just my agency

My flight of fancy

Flight of fancy

Interpol - Evil

Rosemary

Heaven restores you in life

You're 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 moves you upwards

Embracing me with two hands

Right will take you places

Yeah maybe to the beach

When your friends they do come crying

Tell them now your pleasure's set upon slow-release

Hey wait

Great smile

Sensitive to fate

Not denial

But hey who's on trial?

It took a lifespan with no cellmate

The long way back

Sandy, why can't we look the other way?

We speaks about travel

Yeah, we think about the land

We smart like all people

Feeling real tan

I could 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 fate

Not denial

But hey who's on trial?

It took a lifespan with no cellmate

To find a long way back

Sandy, why can't we look the other way?

You're weightless, you are exotic

You need something for which to care

Sandy, why 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 lightly

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

Sandy, why can't we look the other way?

You're weightless, semi-erotic

You need someone to take you there

Sandy, why 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?

Interpol - The Rover

Come and see me yeah maybe you'll die

I can keep you in artwork, the fluid kind

That's enough for excitements today

Frustrated, faded, it's pay to play

Come and see me yeah maybe you'll try

I've been holding these pyros til they could fly

Open up and enlighten again

Enjoy the skyline, it's an incremental end

Walk in on your own feet says

The rover

It's my way or they all leave says

The rover

The rover

Ça suffit hell, yeah, maybe it's time

Interpol - Mammoth

Spare me the suspense
Spare me the suspense
I got no currency, but I'm heaven sent
So spare me the suspense
Just spare me the suspense

Hey, lady wraith
Oh, I so hope you try
You're late, babe you know it's your time

I won't let you sit by
So cold in the pitch night
Alone you can't make amends
No, I won't let you sit by
So cold in the pitch night
We should dance like two fucking twins

Just spare me the suspense

There are seven ancient pawnshops along the road
I know seven aching daddies you may want to know

Oooohhh, right on

Hey, lady wraith
Oh baby I can't deny
I got a taste, a taste, a taste and it's time

But I won’t let you sit by
So cold in the pitch night
Alone you can’t make amends

No, I won’t let you sit by
So cold in the pitch night
It’s enough with this fucking incense
Just spare me the suspense

There are seven ancient pawn shops along the road
Oh I know seven aging daddies you may want to know
When you played your heart out
You made me turn around

Oooohhh, right on

Wait, oh you froze in the night
You're late, there's a hole in the sky
No haste, no lesson, no lie
Got a taste that I can't deny

Spare me the suspense

And you wait till you know that it's time
You wait till you know that it's time
You wait till you know that it's time
You wait till you know that it's time

You say to me, set black fires, do you know?
You say to me, set black fires

Interpol - Mountain Child

Mountain child
Up in the trees like a heathen
Running wild
A scrape on your knees from the descent

Are you out of your head
Why you out of my bed now
Mountain child with your star
Won't you come along with me

Mountain child
The snake in the reeds had me reeling
The smoke in the sky is clear in your eye
It's a lean prophecy that I'm reading

Are you out of your head
Why you out of my bed now
Mountain child you are my queen in white
Won't you come along with me

Show me what it is
What you use it for
I've seen you so high like a meteor
Show me what it is
What you use it for
I watch it roll by like a cannon ball
Up the range
We can try to hike for days
Show me what it is
What you use it for
And come along with me

I wanna live at home but this time keeps moving backwards
No one will ever know that my mountain child is strange
And I'm a kind of hero

Hero
We used to rule back then
What did we used to rule back then

Interpol - Leif Erikson

She says it helps with the lights out
Her rabid glow is like braille to the night
She swears I'm a slave to the details
But if your life is such a big joke, why should I care?

The clock is set for nine but you know you're gonna make it eight
So that you two can take some time, teach each other to reciprocate

She feels that my sentimental side should be held with kids gloves
She doesn't know that I left my urge in the icebox
She swears I'm just prey for the female
Well then hook me up and throw me, baby cakes, cuz I like to get hooked

The clock is set for nine but you know you're gonna make it eight
All the people that you've loved they're all bound to leave some keepsakes
I've been swinging all the time, think it's time to learn your way
I picture you and me together in the jungle it will be ok

I'll bring you when my lifeboat sails through the night
That is supposing that you don't sleep tonight

It's like learning a new language
Helps me catch up on my mime
If you don't bring up those lonely parts
This could be a good time

It's like learning a new language
You come here to me
We'll collect those lonely parts and set them down
You come here to me...

She says brief things, her love's a pony
My love's subliminal
She says brief things, her love's a pony
My love's subliminal

Interpol - NYSMAW

Like Prince sang in Tennessee
I wanna drive with you down there
To alphabet street
And we can whisper with the stars
Like when the world began
And we can leak some beliefs skyward

Sinking in
Driving
Moving in
Cool climates

Give me the oversight inside the other
Give me the oversight inside the fantasy

And with these inclinations
They will design a little box for you to play in
Aimless sharks don't react to soft attentions
They know how to wait

Swooping in
Silent
Moving in
Cool
Firing

Give me the oversight inside the other
Give me the oversight inside the other's dream

Is it safe are we far for the mountains
We walk through the trees
Is it safe sing a song for the zeros
Nothing is memory
Blind like the censors seeking my surround

Give me the oversight inside the other
Primitive over mind designs of ecstasy
You're reaching into my heart
And grinding fists in my soul
Give me the oversight inside the other's dream

Now you've seen me at work
Are you excited dear

Interpol - Everything Is Wrong

Truly, truly, truly real

Enter the override, how we run the game
Sleeker and cheaper, the wind changed
Following deeper, they hear what I say
Spectral incentives have paved the way

Everything is wrong, oh, everything is wrong
I guess we hope in time what is now is overcome

I think I know why, I say what I say
Inverse achievements, I rue the days
Am I more soulful, or am I coming down now?
Can we start over as agents of peace?

Everything is wrong, oh, everything is wrong
All we have is time, but my heart is going numb
It's taken a part of both of us
And nobody likes to wait
Everything is wrong, truly wrong, everything is wrong
Everything is wrong

Truly, truly, truly real

Oh love, hold on, hold on, hold on
Oh love, hold on, hold on, hold on

We made our home, without begging your pardon
We made our home, with time alone
It's taken apart the best of us
But nobody likes to wait
Everything is wrong, truly wrong, everything is wrong

Interpol - Summer Well

Fevered the plastics that seal your body
They won't stop this way, hey, hey

I was your eye in the night when the prophets fell
I said, "it looks like you summer well"

But I want to stay magical
I want to stay yearning (nobody told you, nobody told you)
I want to feel up on your life
I missed you
But it looks like you summered well

All the while, the protests have shined the same
But you will never have noticed
It's alright

I rely on the process, don't mind the frame
They will never take this dream from me

It's alright
(I need you back)
It's alright
(It's all the way behind us)
It's alright

I miss you, babe
I want you back
The signs we gave
Weren't those signs supposed to last?

The rainy days
The Summer's back
The signs we gave
So what was that?

You know we have ways
To make the seasons touch these ones
So let me take this, cover your eyes
Look away
Until it fades

All the while all the protests that shined the same
But you will never notice
It's alright
I rely on the process, don't mind the frame
They will never take this dream from me

It's alright
(Dream from me)
It's alright
(You sent me)
It's alright
(You sent me)
It's alright
It's alright
It's alright
(You sent me)

Interpol - Take You On A Cruise

I'm timeless like a broken watch
And make money like Fred Astaire
I see that you've come to resist me
I'm a pitbull in time
The pretence is not what restricts me
It's the circles inside
An anatomy of kisses
And a teacher who tries
And knows how we'll disappear
Would you like to be my Missus
And a future with child
You know we can't get back from here
We can get away

Baby won't you try to find me
Baby won't you try to fight
Baby won't you try to find me
Maybe it will be alright

Along the way
Tears drown in the wake of delight
There's nothing like this built today
You'll never see a finer ship in your life
We sail today
Tears drown in the wake of delight
There's nothing like this built today
You'll never see a finer ship
Or see a better tip in your life

I am the scavenger
Between the sheets of union
Lately I can't tell for sure
whether machines turn anyone
Are you the scavenger?
Between the sheets of union
Lately I can't tell for sure
whether machines turn anyone

Lady won't you try to find me
Lady there is no need to fight
Lady won't you try to find me
Lady it will be alright

We sail today
Tears drown in in the wake of delight
There's nothing like this built today
You'll never see a finer ship in your life
Along the way
The sea will crowd us with lovers at night
There's nothing like this built today
You'll never see a finer ship
Or receive a better tip in your life

I see that you've come to resist me
I'm a pitbull in time

White Goddess, red Goddess
Black temptress of the sea, you treat me right
Black Goddess, red Goddess
White temptress of the sea, you treat me right

Oh my love is sailing to Norway.
All my love we're leaving tonight

White Goddess, black Goddess
Red temptress of the sea, you treat me right
White Goddess, red Goddess
Black Temptress of the sea, you treat me right
