Bloc Party - Song for Clay (Demo) lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm aware there is a world that Outside of my window, my window When I reach out to touch it It shrinks away, away from me These days, I'm never angry Only ever bored, find me The next craze, special occasion Next great party, nothing Ever touches me [Verse 2] At the Les 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 Xanax And Marlboro Reds (Self-pity won't save you) [Chorus] Oh, how our, how our parents They suffered for nothing Live the dream, live the dream, live the dream Like the '80s never happened People are afraid, are afraid To merge on the freeway These days, I'm only bored [Verse 3] And we stroll past the queue Into the magazine launch party I am handed a pill And I swallow with complete disdain Ba** drum hands and high hi-hats We make sure to look bored We s** each other's face And make sure we are noticed (The c**aine won't save you) [Chorus] Oh, how our, how our parents They suffered for nothing Live the dream, live the dream, live the dream Like the '80s never happened People are afraid, are afraid To merge on the freeway These days, I'm only bored [Bridge] [?] Because East London is a vampire It s**s the joy right out of me How we long for corruption In these golden years [Chorus] Oh, how our, how our parents They suffered for nothing Live the dream, live the dream, live the dream Like the '80s never happened People are afraid, are afraid To merge on the freeway These days, I'm only bored
