Young Liars by TV on the Radio

Album: Young Liars (2003)

Lyrics:

My mast ain't so sturdy

My head is at half

I'm searching the clouds for the score

My lady avails herself

Of marked down freedom

Forever cashed out to no more

She put the blam in the blame

Bullets bearing the name

Of each tigress who's left you a tooth

Save the skins for a pelt

And the rest for a belt

That can't open

No nothing

Can't open

No nothing

Young liars

Thank you for taking my hands

Young liars

Oh thank you for taking my hands

Well it's cold and it's quiet

And cobblestone cold in here

Fucking for fear of not wanting

To fear again

Lonely is all we are

Lovely so far

But my heart's still a marble

In an empty jelly jar

Someday suppose that my

Curious nervousness

Spills into prescience

Clairvoyant consciousness

I will be calmer than cream

Making maps out of your dreams

But will psychic ability

Clinch the nativity

Or simply diminish the flinch

Oh young liars

Thank you for taking my hands

And burying them deep

In the world's wet womb

Where no one can heed their commands

Except young liars

Voice string trombone

Pull me forward onward

To the sea

Take my picture

Soon all I will be

Is my disease

Voice string trombone

Pull me forward onward

To the sea

Take my picture

Soon all I will be

Is my disease

Fantastic TV on the Radio gig at the Forum in Melbourne last night. They opened with this which set the tone for the rest of the gig. Brilliant.

they played this song first when I saw them in Toronto last month. The intro was literally an insanely epic moment (the crowd went crazy when the opening drum beat and Tunde's vocals started). Great live band!

The young liars: the government, the schools, the media controllers, Thanks for not letting me make any real changes to society. Thanks for making us second-guess ourselves and not even letting us try to change anything.

Someday suppose that my curious nervousness stills into prescience, clairvoyant consciousnessI will be calmer than cream, making maps out of your dreamsBut will psychic ability kill the nativity or simply diminish the flinch?

I literally sat here gaping with my mouth open at the beauty and ingenuity of these lyrics for quite some time. Incredible song.

people don't stop lying to themselves or being confused as shit after highschool, that's a guarantee. Far as I've figured out, you give your own world meaning. Can't find it or expect it to just happen to you. An artist creates their place in the world, just like a painting. -or maybe that's just me being confused and lying to myself.
