![]() Narrow Stairs (2008) [ larger cover art ] |
When I was young
Lying in the grass
I felt so safe
In a warming bath
Of sunlight, of sunlight
Vast open sky
Could do no harm
Like an embrace
From Mother's arms
In sunlight, in sunlight
In sunlight, in sunlight
With every year
That came to pass
More clouds appeared
Till the sky went black
And there was no sunlight, no sunlight
And there was no sunlight, no sunlight anymore
It disappeared at the same speed
The idealistic things I believed
And the optimist died inside of me
No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight, no sunlight
It disappeared at the same speed
The idealistic things I believed
And the optimist died inside of me
No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight, no sunlight
No sunlight anymore

Agreed! I love DCFC but I think I need a 6-month break before I can actually like any of these songs again. |
| michaeleconomy (San Francisco) | Posted: Aug 27, 2008 - 13:23 this song kinda sounds like it should be featured in a mcdonalds tv ad. but even still, i kinda like it. |

In my opinion, it's because each song on this new album is good. |
| hippiechick (Weekendland) | Posted: Jun 25, 2008 - 08:19 The one hit song on this disc is so strong, it kind of overpowers the others, imo. Still, pretty good. Kind of Radiohead lite. |
| lily34 | Posted: Jun 23, 2008 - 10:04 got this cd yesterday. and i'm enjoying it very much. including this song. |
| tclodes (Oklahoma City) | Posted: Jun 23, 2008 - 09:50 I like Deathcab, but this new record is not doing it for me. |
| angrypanda (Zion) | Posted: Jun 06, 2008 - 16:57 I quite like this little number. "The optimist died inside of me," indeed. Check out an acoustic version played inside a London black cab (!) at the Black Cab Sessions. There's also stuff by the New Pornographers, the National, and many others. |

Boring, trite song-boring, trite group. added: Judybats called. They want their sound back. |

Looks like we have a conspiracy theorist here! |
