Текст песни Song For Clay [Disappear Here] - Bloc Party

I am trying to be heroic
In an age of modernity
I am trying to be heroic
Because all around me history sings
So I enjoy and I devour
Flesh and wine and luxury
But in my heart, I am lukewarm
Nothing ever really touches me

At the Trois Garçons
We meet at precisely 9 o'clock
I order the foie gras
And I eat it with complete disdain

Bubbles rise in champagne flutes
But when we kiss, I feel nothing
Feasting on sleeping pills
And Marlboro Reds (Self-pity won't save you)

Oh, how our, how our parents, they suffered for nothing
Live the dream, live the dream, live the dream
Like the 80's never happened
People are afraid, are afraid to merge on the freeway
Disappear here

We stroll past the queue
Into the magazine launch party
I am handed a pill
And I swallow with complete disdain

Kick-drum pounds, off beat high-hats
Remember to look bored
We suck each other's faces
And make sure we aren't noticed (The cocaine won't save you)

Because East London is a vampire
It sucks the joy right out of me
How we long for corruption in these golden years

Oh, how our, how our parents, they suffered for nothing
Live the dream, live the dream, live the dream
Like the 80's never happened
People are afraid, are afraid to merge on the freeway
Disappear here

Disappear here
Disappear here
Disappear here
Disappear here
