Lyrics

Decided

To sneak up away

From your stomach

And try your pulse

And captured

What seemed all

Unknowing and candid

But they suspected

It was false

She's playful

The boring would

Warn you be careful

Of her brigade

In order to tame

This relentless marauder

Move away from the parade

And she was walking on the tables

In the glass house

Endearingly bedraggled in the wind

Subtle in her method of seduction

The twenty little tragedies begin

And she would throw

A feather boa in the road

If she thought

That it would set the scene

Unfittingly dipped

Into your companions

Enlighten them to make you see

And there's affection to rent

The age of the understatement

Before the attraction ferments

Kiss me properly and pull me apart

Affection to rent

The age of the understatement

Before this attraction ferments

Kiss me properly and pull me apart

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

And my fingers scratch at my hair

Before my mind can get too reckless

The idea of seeing you here

Is enough to make the sweat grow cold

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

The songs are vaguely similar, but thats because of the influences on both bands. Bellamy's dad was in a surf rock band during this era that played this style. Alex and Miles really love the early 60s bands, so it makes perfect sense. I can guarantee you Cydonia was not the inspiration for this tune. Both tunes come from cinematic spy flick/spaghetti western/surf music from the early 60s.

What the fuck. I'm just here like discovering a cool band and listening to this cool song for the first time, is my favourite band being made out for something stupid in the comments. Muse is cool guys, it's not Twilight-like (survival, animals, showbiz, sober, space dementia, etcetcetc) and if it were, what difference does it make? Muse are cool, and if Twilight would be like Muse it would be cool too.

The fact that people are comparing these two to Muse is embarrassing. They blow over rated bands like Muse away. This is real music.

Yeah I know Matt Bellamy likes the Arctic Monkeys and I'm sure Alex Turner likes Muse back and possibly Miles Kane too...probably a little shout-out

The riffs are similar but, who cares? (For the people who thinks that muse is for twilight freaks, listen "Hysteria" or "Yes Please") (I have never watched a Twilight film and i'm not a biggest fan of muse)
