City Calm Down Lyrics
If had wrote you for your thoughts
Pretend they are my own and turn the other way
Still living in my regrets
Reflected in the mud
But I'm not ashamed
Believe me I'm losing sense of it all
I won't deny it
So that you run away
Voices tell me I'm better off feeding
Leading all the violence I see without breathing
Threw that innocence not knowing what I've done
Cold sweat holds the chill of the evening
Floor boards creak and theres leaks in the ceiling
I'm slipping up
and almost gone
Believe me I'm losing sense of it all
Won't you mind and turn the other way
Believe me I'm losing sense of it all
I won't deny it
So rabbit run away
Inch by inch I am moving in circles
Stepping on the cracks with it all in my purpose
Counting my wins knowing what I've done
If I roll my luck ‘cross the table
See my hope through the eye of the needle
A narrow miss and I'm gone
Believe me I'm losing sense of it all
Won't you mind and turn the other way
Believe me I'm losing sense of it all
I won't deny it
So rabbit run away
If I had a write you for your thoughts
Pretend they are my own and turn the other way
Believe me I'm losing sense of it all
Won't you mind and turn the other way
Believe me I'm losing sense of it all
I won't deny it
So rabbit run away

Are these the correct lyrics? (I've put a star where i've just made a guess):
If I deride you for your faults
Pretend they are my own
And turn the other way
*Sylvan in my regrets
Reflected in the mud
But I'm not ashamed
Believe me I'm losing sense of it all
I won't deny it
So rabbit run away
Voices tell me I'm better off eating meat
*And all the violence I see without believing
*Chew that innocence not knowing what I've done
Cold sweat holds the chill of the evening
Floor boards creak and theres leaks in the ceiling
I'm slipping up
And almost gone
Believe me I'm losing sense of it all
Won't you mind and turn the other way
Believe me I'm losing sense of it all
I won't deny it
So rabbit run away
Inch by inch I am moving in circles
Stepping over cracks without knowing my purpose
Counting my wins not knowing what I've done
*If I roll my luck ‘cross the table
See my hope through the eye of the needle
A narrow miss and I'm gone
Believe me I'm losing sense of it all
Won't you mind and turn the other way
Believe me I'm losing sense of it all
I won't deny it
So rabbit run away
If I deride you for your faults
Pretend they are my own
And turn the other way
Believe me I'm losing sense of it all
Won't you mind and turn the other way
Believe me I'm losing sense of it all
I won't deny it
So rabbit run away

I absolutely love this song, but if someone told me this was The National I might actually believe them.

A lot of influences here and I'm loving it. New Order, Joy Division, The Cure and more recently White Lies. Brilliant stuff.

A little bit of The Stranglers mixed in there, as well.
Bruno Bailly
And early Bloc Party... Writing this I'm realising Silent Alarm is already eleven years old ! Time does fly.

What a bass line. I was listening to this the other day whilst driving along a country road in the dark with fireworks going off all around. Epic.
Reverend JBoy
Regarding the "Sounds like" comments, I'll go for New Order...listen to the bass line, the fast drumming, the synths
Mrs Vm
“the synths” 😌
