TEGAN AND SARA LYRICS "Arrow" Would you take a straight and narrow critical look at me? Would you tell me tough love style, put judicial weight on me? If you're thinking anything, if you're thinking endlessly. If you're thinking anything, if you're thinking... I feel the breeze, feel feathers of an arrow. Out in my yard, feathers of an arrow. I take my aim, do you feel me coming close? I take my aim, so you feel me coming close. I feel the breeze, feel feathers of an arrow. Out in my yard, feathers of an arrow. I take my aim, do you feel me coming close? I take my aim, so you feel me coming close. Would you take a calm and tender terminal kind of care? Would you touch me, cling and wage on intimate fight for me? If you're thinking anything, if you're thinking endlessly. If you're thinking anything, if you're thinking... I feel the breeze, feel feathers of an arrow. Out in my yard, feathers of an arrow. I take my aim, do you feel me coming close? I take my aim, so you feel me coming close. I feel the breeze, feel feathers of an arrow. Out in my yard, feathers of an arrow. I take my aim, do you feel me coming close? I take my aim, so you feel me coming close.

I feel the breeze, feel feathers of an arrow. Out in my yard, feathers of an arrow. I take my aim, do you feel me coming close? I take my aim, so you feel me coming close. I feel the breeze, feel feathers of an arrow. Out in my yard, feathers of an arrow. I take my aim, do you feel me coming close? I take my aim, so you feel me coming close.

"Don't Rush" Don't block, bad idea, you've been so good I hear, don't rush. Don't move, bad idea, you've been so still, I'm here for you don't rush.

"Hell" No, I'm not ready for a big bad step in their direction. No, I'm not ready for downtown trash, avoid collection. Four blocks, run and hide, don't walk alone at night. Cityscape, city change before they die. Four blocks, I should mention in a song if I want to get along with change, Who doesn't wanna change this? I know you feel it too, these words get overused. When we get up and over it and over them, Up and over it and over them. I know you feel it too, it all seems so untrue. When you get up and over it and over them, Oh oh, hell no. Oh oh, hell no. No, we're not ready for fair distribution, just a terminal solution for... No, we're not ready for hell, hell no, for hell, hell no. Four days, wide awake, why slide along and say. Girl's afraid, girl will change, just move away. Four days that I mention in a song, move along, get ahead, get her hand and bring her with you. I know you feel it too, these words get overused. When we get up and over it and over them, Up and over it and over them. I know you feel it too, it all seems so untrue. When you get up and over it and over them, Oh oh, hell no. Oh oh, hell no. Four ways to remove all the bad that we do from the heart and the soul of the cities sad and cold. Four ways to collect what we say and what we save to discard and discover a brand new way I know you feel it too, these words get overused.

When we get up and over it and over them, Up and over it and over them. I know you feel it too, it all seems so untrue. When you get up and over it and over them, Up and over it and over them. I know you feel it too, these words get overused. When we get up and over it and over them, Up and over it and over them. I know you feel it too, it all seems so untrue. When you get up and over it and over them, Oh oh, hell no. Oh oh, hell no. Oh oh, hell no. Oh oh, hell no.

"On Directing" You're directing me, your eyes focus like a microscope. Get the cuts you need, eyes focus like a microscope. Go steady with me, I know it turns you off when I - I get talking like a teen. I get talking like a teen. You're directing me. You're dressed up I lose my grip, my focus.

"Red Belt" When you think nothing could be further from the truth. When you're sure nothing could be further from the cold hard truth. I kneel to condition all the feelings that I feel. Slow it down, you have a tendency to rush back into your past. Slow it down, you transfer all your weight and disappear. You kneel to condition all the feelings that you feel. I've got a red belt around my mind. My hands are tied up around these words. I wish you'd call but I know that you're out tonight. My ears fill with the sound of you kneeling. My ears fill with the sound of descent. My ears fill with the sound of you arching. Slow it down, you have a tendency to rush back into your past. Slow it down you transfer all your weight and disappear.

Kneel to condition all the feelings that you feel. Kneel to condition all the feelings that you feel. Kneel to condition all the feelings that you feel. Kneel to condition all the feelings that you feel.

"The Cure" Begging like you might take order in your own hands. I stare, it seems like I don't care, drop a chance in your hands then. I know that bad's got to fix itself, correct over time. And I know 'cause I've got the cure, I've got a cure for your crimes. All I dreamed up, all that seemed like luck seems silly to you now. All I said to you, all I did for you seems so silly to me now. oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh Screaming like no one might call the cops and arrest you this time. Standing back against my building's back door, you're hoping for a ride. I know the world's been mean to you, I've got a cure, hold tight. I know the world's not fair to you, I've got a cure for it's crimes. All I dreamed up, all that seemed like luck seems silly to you now. All I said to you, all I did for you seems so silly to me now. Oh oh when you say it, So so slowly to me, Oh oh well I keep going, Oh no I ran while knowing, No no I know you need it, So so I need it too, And oh oh I must keep going, So so you must too. Oh oh when you say it, So so slowly to me, Oh oh well I keep going, Oh no I ran while knowing, No no I know you need it,

Don't feel, don't tear, don't kiss, don't care, don't touch, don't want me. Don't want me, don't want me. Something's so sick about this, my misery's so addictive.

"Paperback Head"

You have to become what you fancy. Paperback head, you get carried away. Stitch up your spine to keep the suitors away. Must draw your own aid. Must sift your affairs. Must frame up a material girl. Wild fires, you must remit. Can't stand the smoke, pull the sheets down low, Rope up your mind, keep the suitors in line. Must draw your own aid. Must sift your affaits. Must frame up a material girl. A material girl. I gasp, like sugar and spice... I gasp, like sugar and spice... Who better than you? Better than you? Who better than you? Better than you? Who better than you? Better than you? Who better than you? Paperback head, you got carried away. Stitch up your spine to keep the suitors away. Can't stand the smoke, pull the sheets down low, Rope up your mind, keep the suitors in line Must draw your own aid. Must sift your affairs. Must frame up a material girl. A material girl. A material girl. A material girl.

"The Ocean" When you wake what is it that you think of most? When your bed is empty do you really sleep alone? If I imagine you, body next to another. All around me new love and it makes me sad. All around me feel assured that you'll be back, If I imagine you, body next to another. Stop crying to the ocean, stop crying over me. Stop worrying over nothing, stop worrying over me. So it's been so long since you said, Well I know what I want and what I want's right here with you. On the drive back here I was worrying over nothing. On the drive back there tears spilling over something. When I imagine you, body next to another. In the door and you're there and you're sorry for the fright. In the door, can I hear you saying you don't wanna fight? When I imagine you, body next to another. Stop crying to the ocean, stop crying over me. Stop worrying over nothing, stop worrying over me. So it's been so long since you said, Well I know what I want and what I want's right here with you. It's been so long since you said, Well I know what I want and what I want's right here with you. In a flash it's back to you, just brought attention to the mess. In a flash you're on top begging me to understand. If I imagine you, body next to another. You drop in for a minute and I'm sorry that I didn't drop in sooner just to see you and see what you've been doin'. If I imagine you, body next to another. So it's been so long since you said, Well I know what I want and what I want's right here with you. It's been so long since you said, Well I know what I want and what I want's right here with you.

It's been so long since you said, Well I know what I want and what I want's right here with you. It's been so long since you said, Well I know what I want and what I want's right here with you.

"Sentimental Tune" You in a simple gray coat in a simple white room. Oh, now you know you know it now. And so, now you know you know it now. You hate the tenderhearted torch song. You catch a flame to my sentiment, my sentimental tune. Oh, now you know you know it now. And so, now you know you know it now. Hard-hearted don't worry I'm ready for a fight.
