The Gloves single arrived early in 2007, heralding the release of the Horrors' full-length debut, Strange House, which arrived in the U.K. that March and in the U.S. in May. In 2008, Webb and Furse formed the analog synth project Spider & the Flies, and released the album Something Clockwork This Way Comes. For 2009's Primary Colours, the band worked with Cunningham and Portishead's Geoff Barrow as co-producers, opting for a very different sound that mixed shoegaze, post-punk, and goth; the album was released by XL that spring and earned several critical raves, including NME's Album of the Year. In between albums, Badwan teamed with Canadian opera singer Rachel Zeffira for the hazy pop project Cat's Eyes, which released its self-titled debut in early 2011. The Horrors self-produced their follow-up, 2011's Skying, which featured a lighter yet still atmospheric sound that drew comparisons to My Bloody Valentine and the Psychedelic Furs. In 2012, they released the remix companion album Higher and embarked on an extensive tour. In 2013, they began recording new material with producer Craig Silvey. Early the following year, the single "I See You" reflected the more expansive direction of their fourth album, Luminous, which arrived in May 2014. The Horrors began work on their next full-length with Paul Epworth at London's Church Studios in 2015, and forged a darker, rawer yet still danceable sound that borrowed from '80s post-punk, synth-pop, and '90s dance. The result was V, which arrived in September 2017.

The Horrors Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
While she sleeps through a storm.
Do you see what I see in your eyes?
Do you see me at all?
How can you seem to ignore what is there?
How can you stay and endure the regret?
When our silences fall.
Do you see what I see in your eyes?
Though you seem to ignore.
How can you seem to ignore what is there?
How can you stay and endure the regret?
I've been thinking about the one I love
An eye in the storm,
I could stay here, I could be blind.
How far will it go?
Mine and yours
The Horrors’ song Mine and Yours is a poignant reflection on love and regret. The first verse sets the scene as the singer thinks about his beloved while she sleeps through a storm. He wonders if she sees what he sees in her eyes, if she sees him at all. The second verse shifts the focus to the contradictions in their relationship. He notes that she seems to ignore what is there, to endure the regret of their situation. The final verse returns to the theme of waiting, this time for the silences that fall between them. The singer again questions whether his beloved sees what he sees in her eyes, despite her apparent disregard.
The lyrics of Mine and Yours reflect a deep sense of longing and uncertainty in love. The metaphor of the storm suggests the turbulence and unpredictability of emotions, while the repeated questioning highlights the singer’s deep doubts about the future of their relationship. Perhaps the most striking line in the song is “I could stay here, I could be blind,” which seems to suggest a willingness to accept whatever comes rather than face the painful reality of loss.
Overall, The Horrors’ Mine and Yours is a powerful exploration of the complexities of love and regret. Its haunting lyrics and emotional melodies are sure to resonate with anyone who has felt similarly conflicted in their own relationships.

+Trey Campbell Yeah. They should make a re.issue. Changing the pitch for Sleepwalk making it a little bit more happy and switching track place with Mine And Yours. That would be perfect.
