Julian Casablancas

I hear it in your silence,
when you don't speak...
what was funny then,
isn't funny anymore.
I can hear it in your voice,
there's always a catch...
we're going nowhere,
and we're going there fast.
Anything to watch
while we are waiting
for this apocalypse
What else is there to do?
It's nice to be important
but so close to being despised
It's more important to be nice
I guess than being wise
I'll take you shopping
I'll take you dancing too
I take you out
all the thing you wanna do
I'll give you diamonds
and I'll give you space
so be with anyone you want
it's alright with me.
Our time is over
don't you know that
if a time warp was open
I'd stay right in my place
That war is over
I hear it in your silence,
when you don't speak...
there is a quiet,
cryin',
rage,
burning inside you, so deep.
I'll give you anything
but I'll give you problems
So be with anyone you want
It's alright with me.
I hear it in your voice
can see it in your lips
There's always a catch
I guess that's alright with me
No one's around
but the map says "you are here"
Now I can hear loneliness
screaming in my ear.
Oh, time is over
Don't you know that
if a time warp was open
I'd stay right in my place
The war ain't over yet
This war ain't over yet...
Being nice is only hard when others aren't
Our time is over
