Song For Clay Disappear Here
Bloc Party
Letra

I am trying to be heroic in an age of modernity
I am trying to be heroic as all around me history sinks

So I enjoy and I devour flesh and wine and luxury
But in my heart I am lukewarm
Nothing ever really touches me

At Les Trois Garcons, we meet at precisely nine o' clock
I order the foie gras and I eat it with complete distain

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

We stroll past the queue, into the magazine launch party
I'm handed a pill and I swallow with complete distain

Kick drum pounds, off-beat hi-hats
Remember to look bored
We suck each other's faces and make sure we are noticed
The cocaine won't save you

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

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

Disappear here
Disappear here
Disappear here
Disappear here
