Os traigo un temica que últimamente me tiene sorbido el seso. Me enganché porque el que canta e l trozo que comienza por 'sit down...' me recuerta tantísimo a Morrisey. La canción tiene ese ritmo pop melancólico que recuerda a The Smiths o a Gene, la letra es fantástica, me encantan las canciones que tienen letras complejas, que cuentan una historia. Lástima que el vídeo no acompañe, útimamente parece que si eres un grupo indi tienes que hacer este tipo de vídeos, qué gran error. Os aconsejo que lo escuchéis dos veces, parece una canción tonta pero después de un par de veces engancha. Pego también la letra porque merece la pena .

[Will Sheff]
Packed and all eyes turned in
No one to see on the quay, no one waving for me
Just the shoreline receding
Ticket in my hand I'm thinking wish I didn't hand it in
'cause who said sailing is fine?
Leaving behind all the faces that I might
Replace if I tried on that long ride
Looking deep inside but I don't want to look so deep inside yet
[Jonathan Meiburg]
Sit down, sit down on the prow to wave back
There might not be another stop(*) further on the line
Look out, look out at each town that glides by
And there's another crowd to drown in crying eyes
[Will]
And see how that light you love now just won't shine
It might just be another star that's high and far in some other sky
we sing: 'Is that marionette real enough yet to step off of that set
To decide what her dance might be doing?'
Ruining the play, too, and in the ensuing melee escaping.
Packed up all of our bags, the ship's deck now sags
With the weight of our tracks as we race beneath flags black and battered
Rattling our swords in service of some fated foreign lord
[Jonathan]
We sail out on orders from him but we find
The maps he sent to us don't mention lost coastlines
when(*) nothing we've actually seen has been mapped or outlined
we don't recognize the names upon these signs
[Will]
And every night finds us rocking and rolling on waves wild and wide(*)
Well we have lost our way, but nobody's gonna say it outright
So we just go,
La la, la la la la, la la la la la la la la la la la laaaaa
Oh oh ohhhh

(*)he corregido algunas cosas a las letras que he encontrado por ahí, aunque no termino de convencerme de que sea correcto.
