And all our worlds subside
With everything inside,
And always wonder why,
We carry on
And always wonder why,
We sing this song,
And always wonder why,
We carry on
And always wonder why,
Now you are gone
We'll carry on,
We'll sing this song,
To carry on

Not sure but judging by the speed of this song the thief is probably either running very, very slowly away, or is already asleep under your dining room table. |

Death Cab did slow burns like this much better back on Transatlanticism. I know you'll be shocked but, having owned Transatlanticism and listened to it many times, I don't share your opinon. I wouldn't buy it if I had it to do over again. Should that ruin it for you? Absolutely not! But I like this - and I like it more than anything I've ever heard by Death Cab. So who cares? All it means is that I shouldn't buy anything more by Death Cab but I should buy this. The reverse for you. The world still rotates on the same axis. Light still hurtles from distant galaxies. Nothing important has changed. |

| WayUpNorth (Edge of Nowhere) | Posted: May 18, 2009 - 11:32 I like it. Reminiscent of Snow Patrol and Devotchka.  |

Still a 9 - very cathartic to me. Same here, although I save the 9s and 10s for the very rare cases. I wish it was available on iTunes, though. (At least it wasn't last I checked...may have to go look again when I'm not at work.) |

This time I'm with PG, this is pretentious bullshit and I'm giving it a 1. 
I'm with the other guy. "Pretentious" implies they were trying to write something important, when you know absolutely nothing about the songwriters. Perhaps they were simply trying to write something "pretty". Either that, or you are trying to say the song itself thinks it is important, and that's just pathetic (pun intended). Overblown, melodramatic, and grandiose would all be more apt adjectives for a song written by someone who is clearly doing some sort of interpretation of Vangelis. |

| dogman108 | Posted: Dec 22, 2006 - 15:53 Great song from a great band. Very underrated in my view. Even these boys cant please everyone as can be seen below. We are all different and its a good job we are! However I would urge anybody who leans towards the new age progressive genre to seek out their albums and let them grow on you. superb stuff. |

Now if I think an artist is being overlay drmatic, i.e., they are trying too hard to create impression of drama, wouldn't I then use to use the word pretentious to describe how I feel? |
