This is one of those songs, like Radioheads "Motion Picture Soundtrack", that is just a perfect blend of harmony, lyrics, and changing melodies/rhythms that you wish could keep going forever. Always have to listen to it at least twice. And I agree with Kristin B. -- they don't get the respect they deserve.

listen to them more , try your visits are getting shorter...
;D

i don't really like bloc party, but this tune is like sunshine through the rain.

i love this song..

wow, loving it...listening to it over and over and over......

gosh, now that i really think about it. this song reminds me of my ex. what he sings is what my ex made me feel towards him. without really saying it. sort of confusing.

good i like

♥ bloc party ... this band is just incredible, seriously ... and they so don't get the airplay they deserve! this is one of the prettiest songs i've ever heard

Awesome!

To be lost in the forest
To be cut adrift
You've been trying to reach me
You bought me a book
To be lost in the forest
To be cut adrift
I've been paid
I've been paid

Don't get offended
If I seem absent minded
Just keep telling me facts
And keep making me smile
Don't get offended
If I seem absent minded
I get tongue-tied
Baby, you've got to be more discerning
I've never known what's good for me
Baby, you've got to be more demanding
I will be yours

I'll pay for you anytime

You told me you wanted to eat up my sadness
Well jump on, enjoy, you can gorge away
You told me you wanted to eat up my sadness
Jump right
Baby, you've got to be more discerning
I've never known what's good for me
Baby, you've got to be more demanding
Jump left

What are you holding out for?
What's always in the way?
Why so damn absent-minded?
Why so scared of romance?

This modern love breaks me
This modern love wastes me

Do you wanna come over and kill some time?
Tell me facts, tell me facts, tell me facts
Tell me facts
Throw your arms around me
