Preoccupations - Forbidden Lyrics
[Verse]
Everyone is floating by the graveside
Everyone is foreign when you're in another world
But the translation of sound is the same
[Chorus]
You'll be made irrelevant by a suicide machine
Mechanically modified to muffle out t...
Preoccupations - Newspaper Spoons Lyrics
[Verse] x2
Writhing violence essentially without distortion
Wired silent, vanishing into the boredom
Deliberately made to disintegrate
Difficult existence
Underestimated alienation
[Refrain] x2
We're bending newspaper spoons...
Preoccupations - Throw It Away Lyrics
[Verse]
Bottles on the table feel too empty
Fill them up so that they might overflow
In a familiar way
So timid, ashamed and awkward
Time and solitude yield and break apart
Into the end of the day
[Chorus]
Throw it away
[Verse]
Diagnosed...
Preoccupations - Select Your Drone Lyrics
[Verse]
Sensors are damaged by the fall
A trembling gauge
Triggering switches in the cage
Mistaken phase
Magnetic control
A labyrinth of circuits
Miniature tubes
Wire as fine as hair
Select your drone
Turn off your home
You'd never kn...
Preoccupations - Doubt Lyrics
Falling in and out of line
I don't understand what everybody's waiting for
Falling in and out of time
And everything is black and white like a domino
With doubt we comply
They ask and we supply
The cells divide and multiply
They ...
Preoccupations - Fever Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Imitating your intentions
Waking up to watch you walk away
Repulsion and attraction
Terrifying options any day
[Chorus x2]
You're not scared, you're not scared
Carry your fever away from here
[Verse 2]
In your outrage,...
Preoccupations - March Of Progress Lyrics
Lately there's a wound that needs some healing soon
Before the infection can set in
Slowly, this repulsion leads to nausea
And fear for these old forgotten halls
Maybe you just need someone to keep you warm
With fire coming from a diff...
Preoccupations - Structureless Design Lyrics
Satellites wax and wane
Alternating the same
Dark projections of everything under our skies
And all that we are
Is something to keep
The shadows and sun apart from one another
Outside we'll all beware:
Nothing doesn't get old!
S...
Preoccupations - Oxygen Feed Lyrics
[Verse]
Skeletons in between
Tubes from the oxygen feed
Signal fire burning low
In the clock radio
You could let it burn?
Or fall apart under the ground
[Pre Chorus]
I can only see you where you are
I can only carry you so far
[Chorus]
S...
Preoccupations - Sense Lyrics
Send your light on the element again
You, trying to make sense out
Trying to make sense out
Trying to make sense out
Make sense out of it all...
Preoccupations - Manipulation Lyrics
Sinking through stone
Reasons for being come so slowly
Placing to show
Planned obsolescence embryos
Roaming free with depravity
Holding hands with a hollow man
Some kind of new manipulation
Charm and betray
Ruin and replay
Seduce and dece...
Preoccupations - Solace Lyrics
Uncertainty on demand
Currently it's an emergency
And we need disaster relief
And finally consolation prizes, today
Seeking solace in shadows
Eclipsing binary stars
Dancing in a graveyard of ambition
Resurrecting everybody's desi...
Preoccupations - Monotony Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Destroyed and cast away
Blue, translucent days
Collapsing, ricocheting
Everybody's waiting
[Verse 2]
Cautiously optimistic
Skillfully sadistic
Falsetto echolalia
Falling into mania
[Bridge]
And it's bleak and incomplet...
Preoccupations - Decompose Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Blind, spinning and out of phase
Rioting in rolling waves
Your eyes are the middle of hurricanes
And I'll follow you all the way down
[Verse 2]
So quick to discriminate
Deprived transient renegades
Spiraling and disengaged
N...
Preoccupations - Degraded Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We're throwing caution to the wind
We are consistent in our flaws
Predictably, we have no goals
Incapable of abstract thoughts
[Chorus]
Wondering how long it might take to bleed through
I can't improve
I can't impr...
Preoccupations - Pointless Experience Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Poisonous precedence
A pointless experience
Accidental taxidermy
Filling your head with
Sandblasting cemetery monuments naked
Downward velocity
Another endeavor
[Chorus]
Failed to keep the necessary papers for evacuation
Hideousl...
Preoccupations - Disarray Lyrics
[Chorus]
Disarray, disarray, disarray
Disarray, disarray, disarray
Disarray, disarray, disarray
[Verse 1]
Through the tangle
Split the braids
Scramble through
In the mangled masquerade interlude
[Pre-Chorus]
Holding you up to the test of ...
Preoccupations - Zodiac Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Another circumstance to blame
We're all reluctantly engaged
Fending off the lashes'
Horrible embraces
Slashing so weakly
So close to exhaustion
But hopelessly holding our breath
[Bridge]
Loved in a dehumanizing way
But ...
Preoccupations - Silhouettes Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Stained unnecessarily
Unrestrained inevitability
Overwhelmed by all the drunken silhouettes
Entertained with their broken cassettes
[Verse 2]
Hey, is there any consequence
In getting lost in international time?
Uncontrollable spo...
Preoccupations - Stimulation Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ugliness got murders, we are all observers
Sadly so amused
Camera flashing fire, contraband supplies gone
Horribly awry
[Verse 2]
With the ill intention gathering momentum
Shame
Mercenary impulsions, their captors spinning in the...
Preoccupations - Continental Shelf Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When all is said and done
You'll be around until you're gone
Crystallized, cancelled eyes
Illegitimate merchandise
Don't want to face the world
It's suffocating (suffocating)
Undesireable circumstances
I can�...
Preoccupations - Bunker Buster Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Go where, go where fluorescent primates teem
And wind through the neon screens
That scan over muted lips on Japanese ships
[Verse 2]
Swelling, screaming
It's a deranged enhancement
Deflated amplifiers
Overdeveloped in incomp...
Preoccupations - Anxiety Lyrics
[Verse 1]
With a sense of urgency and unease
Second-guessing just about everything
Recollections of a nightmare
So cryptic and incomprehensible
[Chorus]
Encompassing
Anxiety
[Verse 2]
No control, no compensation
A jaded need for some asto...
Preoccupations - Unconscious Melody Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I don't want a wave to come carry me under
It's a time of the signs
I open up a book I can't understand the meaning
I need something to heed
Falling over backwards in an embarrassing fashion
Embarrassing fashion
I j...
Preoccupations - Static Wall Lyrics
[Verse]
Keep the fire from going out
In the shadow of a doubt
Say goodbye before you die
Cause nothing's on the other side
[Chorus]
Non-existant, empty and unreal
Interviewed you through the static wall at the terminal gate
Navigation...
Interpol - Complications Lyrics
I dream of complications
On and on
That's how my observation tends
But all preoccupations are suddenly simple
When I let my second nature win
What'll it be
It goes on and on
On the street
It's like a blindness
Ties me up ag...
Preoccupations - Antidote Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sending current down the barbed wire
Burning currency in bonfires
There's no why
And are you passengers approved [?] giving you much too soon
With a dominance on narcissism in the metasphere setting concrete
Inaffected by sig...
Preoccupations - Memory Lyrics
[Verse 1: Matt Flegel]
Necessary but against your better judgments
You were being overcharged in the market square
Overwhelmed and it's coming from all angles
You were entertaining the idea that it wasn't fair
[Pre-Chorus 1: Matt...
Preoccupations - Death Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Anchored to the bottom, you can see the current
Situation bending in and out of focus
Floating to the surface, you can see much higher
Quality arrangements of the constellations
[Chorus 1]
Stranded and broken
Another day where ev...
Preoccupations - Espionage Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The chances seemed so slim
They will never get out of this trench alive
With fingers that feel so cut and dry
Resign into the fact in force and back-and-forth
And back the call responding to social espionage
Zealotry without a cau...
