Show me the dirt pile
And I will pray that the soul can take
Three stowaways
Vanish with no guile
And I will not pay
But the soul can wait
The soul can wait
It's still pretty
What with all these leaves
We'll be fine
We'll be fine
But if it's still pretty
What with all these leaves
We'll be fine, oh
And supervise
Show me the dirt pile
And I will pray that the soul can take
Three stowaways
And you vanish with no guile
And I will not pay
But the soul can wait
I felt you so much today
I know you try
You fly straight into my heart
You fly straight into my heart
Girl, I know you try
You fly straight into my heart
You fly straight into my heart
But here comes the fall
So much for make-believe, I'm not sold
So much of dreams, deceit, I'm not prepared to know
Your heart makes me feel
Your heart makes me bold
For always and ever
I'll never let go
Always concealed
Safe and inside, alive
Show me the dirt pile
And I will pray that the soul can take
Three stowaways
In a passion it broke
I pull the black from the gray
But the soul can wait
I felt you so much today

No I In Threesome
Through the storms and the light
Babe, you've stood by my side
And life is wine
But there are days in this life
When you see the teeth marks of time
Two lovers divide
Sound meets sound, babe
The echoes they sorround
And know that we need is one thing
Now what is there to allow?
Babe, it's time we give something new a try
Oh, alone we may fight
So, just let us be three
And baby tonight
I see your lips are on fire
And life is wine
Now the windows are open the moon is so bright
There's no one can tell us what love brings, you and I
Sound meets sound, babe
Her echoes they surround
And know that we need is one thing
Now what is there to allow
Babe, it's time we give something new a try
Oh, alone we may fight
So just let us be three, tonight
Through the storms and the light
Baby, you've stood by my side
And life is wine
You feel the sweet breath of time
It's whispering, its truth not mine
There's no I in threesome
And I am all for it
Babe, it's time we give something new a try
Oh, alone we may fight
And feathers bend like trees in the moonlight
Babe, it's time we give something new a try
Oh, alone we may fight
So just let us be three tonight
Babe, you've stood by my side
And life is wine
But there are days in this life
When you see the teeth marks of time
Two lovers divide
Sound meets sound, babe
The echoes they sorround
And know that we need is one thing
Now what is there to allow?
Babe, it's time we give something new a try
Oh, alone we may fight
So, just let us be three
And baby tonight
I see your lips are on fire
And life is wine
Now the windows are open the moon is so bright
There's no one can tell us what love brings, you and I

Her echoes they surround
And know that we need is one thing
Now what is there to allow

Oh, alone we may fight

Through the storms and the light

There's no I in threesome

Oh, alone we may fight
So just let us be three tonight

The Scale
I have a sequin for an eye
Pick a rose and hide my face
This is a bandit's life, it comes and goes
And them's the breaks
Under a molten sky
Beyond the road, we lie in wait
You think they know us now?
Wait 'til the stars come out
You see that? Well, I made you
And now I take you back
It's too late, but today
I can define the lack
I made you
And now I take you back
Son, you sleep in clouds of fire
That's all and that's right
My son, you sleep in clouds of fire
That's all and that's right
I can still feel it when you lie
Pick a rose just to hide my face
Well, if there's something I should know
I seek no science where there is no shade
Under a molten sky
Let the days collide
Well, I made you
And now I take you back
Son, you sleep in clouds of fire
That's all and that's right
My son, you sleep in clouds of fire
That's all and that's right
Pick a rose and hide my face
This is a bandit's life, it comes and goes
And them's the breaks
Under a molten sky
Beyond the road, we lie in wait
You think they know us now?
Wait 'til the stars come out
You see that? Well, I made you
And now I take you back
It's too late, but today
I can define the lack
I made you
And now I take you back
Son, you sleep in clouds of fire
That's all and that's right
My son, you sleep in clouds of fire
That's all and that's right
I can still feel it when you lie
Pick a rose just to hide my face
Well, if there's something I should know

Son, you sleep in clouds of fire
That's all and that's right
My son, you sleep in clouds of fire
That's all and that's right

The Heinrich Maneuver
How are things on the west coast?
I hear you're moving real fine
You wear those shoes like a dove
Now strut those shoes, we'll go roaming in the night
Well, how are things on the west coast?
You keep it moving to your soul's delight
Now I've tried the brakes
I tried, but you know it's a lonely ride
How are things the west coast?
Oh, I'd move Heaven behind those eyes
Today my heart swings
Yeah, today my heart swings
But I don't want to take your heart
And I don't want a piece of history
No, I don't want to read your thoughts anymore
My god
'Cause today my heart swings
Yeah, today my heart swings
How are things on the west coast?
Hear you're moving real fine tonight
You wear those shoes side-to-side
Ah, strut those shoes, we'll go roaming in the night
Well, how are things on the west coast?
Yeah, but you're an actress and I don't identify
Today my heart swings
Yeah, today my heart swings
Say it
But I don't want to play the part
And I don't want a taste of victory
No, I don't want to read your thoughts anymore
My God
'Cause today my heart swings
Yeah, today my heart swings
Say it
'Cause today my heart swings

Well, I've got a plan with forward in my eyes
Let it come
Well, I've got a chance for a sweet, sane life
I said, I've got a dance, it moves into the night
Well, I've got a plan with forward in my eyes
But today my heart swings

Spare me the suspense
Spare me the suspense
I got the current seat, but I'm heaven sent
So spare me the suspense
Just spare me the suspense
Hey lady, wait
I so hope you try
You're late,
Baby know it's your time
And I won't let you sit by
So call in the kid night
Alone, you can't make amends
Now won't let you sit by
So call in the kids
Now we should dance like two f*cking twins
Just spare me the suspense
There are seven ancient pawn shops along the road
And the seven aching daddies you may want to know
Oh, right on
Lady rain
Oh baby, I can't deny
I gotta taste, a taste, a taste and it's time
But I won't let you sit by
So call in the kids
Alone, you can't make amends
Now I won't let you sit by
But so call in the kids
Now that's enough with this f*cking incense
Just spare me the suspense
There are seven ancient pawn shops along the road
I know seven aging daddies you may want to know
When you played your heart out
It made me turn around
Oh, right on
Wait, have you frozen in the night
You're late, there's a hole in the sky
No haste, no lesson to lie
Gotta taste that I can't deny
And you wait till you know that it's time
You wait till you know that it's time
You wait till you know that it's time
You wait till you know that it's time
You say that you set black fires, do you know?
You say that you set black fires
Spare me the suspense
I got the current seat, but I'm heaven sent
So spare me the suspense
Just spare me the suspense
Hey lady, wait
I so hope you try
You're late,
Baby know it's your time
And I won't let you sit by
So call in the kid night
Alone, you can't make amends
Now won't let you sit by
So call in the kids
Now we should dance like two f*cking twins

Pace Is The Trick
You can't hold it to tight
These matters of security
You don't have to be wound so tight
Smoking on the balcony
But it's that sleaze in a park
You women you have no self-control,
The angels remark outside
You were known for insatiable means
I don't know a thing
I've seen love, and I followed the speeding of starlight
I've seen love, and I followed the speeding of starswept night
Yeah pace is the trick
And to all the destruction in men
Well I see you as you take your pride
My lioness your defenses seem wise I cannot press
And detentions are demised, my lioness
Can't you hurt it some, think I hurt it
I've seen love, and I followed the speeding of starlight
I've seen love and I followed the speeding of starswept night
And now I select you, slow down I let you
See how I stun, see how I stun
And now I select you, slow down I let you
See how I stun, see how I stun
And to all the destruction in men
And to all the corruption in my hand
And now I select you, slow down I let you
See how I stun see how I stun [3x]
And now I select you, slow down I let you
I always follow the speeding of starswept night
You don't hold... candle. [x4]

All Fired Up
I dream of you draped in wires
And leaning on the brakes
As I leave you with restless liars and dealers on the take.
And I can read you like a gumshoe
watch this meeting hall sweat and shake.
I'll take you on.
I'll take you on.
I'll take you on.
I'll take you all on.
I'll take you on.
Oh, I'll take you on.
I'll take you on.
I'll take you on.
And strike you with desire of fault lines
No clutch, no storm.
I can bind you with no ties and leash, and watch you fall.
You see I've got this soul it's all fired up
This soul it's all fired up
This soul, I got this soul
It's all fired up
this soul, it's all fired up
It's all fired up
It's all fired up
It's all fired up
I teach you of death's desires
Reflected in lakes,
As I lead you in a fearful file to a precipice of fate.
And I welcome you,
I welcome your sweethearts that bleed and break.
I'll take you on.
I'll take you on.
I'll take you on.
I'll take you all on.
I'll take you on when your will is gone.
I'll take you on.
I'll take you on.
I will strike you with desire of fault lines
No clutch, no storm.
I can bind you with no ties and lease time and watch you fall.
See, I've got this soul it's all fired up
This soul, I got this soul
It's all fired up
this soul, it's all fired up
It's all fired up
It's all fired up
It's all fired up
all fired up
You're all mine
You're all mine
You're all mine
You're all mine
And leaning on the brakes
As I leave you with restless liars and dealers on the take.
And I can read you like a gumshoe
watch this meeting hall sweat and shake.
I'll take you on.
I'll take you on.
I'll take you on.
I'll take you all on.
I'll take you on.
Oh, I'll take you on.
I'll take you on.
I'll take you on.
And strike you with desire of fault lines
No clutch, no storm.
I can bind you with no ties and leash, and watch you fall.
You see I've got this soul it's all fired up
This soul it's all fired up
This soul, I got this soul
It's all fired up

Rest My Chemistry
I haven't slept for two days
I've bathed in nothing but sweat
And I've made hallways scenes for things to regret
My friends they come
And the lines they go by
Tonight I'm gonna rest my chemistry
Tonight I'm gonna rest my chemistry
I live my life filled with no pain
Just some rage and three kinds of yes
And I've made stairways
Such scenes for things that I regret
Oh, those days in the sun
They bring a tear to my eye
Tonight I'm gonna rest my chemistry
Tonight I'm gonna rest my chemistry
But you're so young
You're so young
You look in my eyes
You're so young, so sweet, so surprised
I see a sign says "OK"
Gotta take a ride, just recline in the faraway
Gotta take some time to realize
That my friends they come
And the lines they go by
Tonight I'm gonna rest my chemistry
Tonight I'm gonna rest my chemistry
But you're so young
You're so young
You look in my eyes
So young, so sweet, so surprised
You look so young like a daisy in my lazy eyes
Tonight I'm gonna rest my chemistry
Tonight I'm gonna rest my chemistry
Tonight I'm gonna rest my chemistry
Tonight I'm gonna rest my chemistry
I've bathed in nothing but sweat
And I've made hallways scenes for things to regret
My friends they come
And the lines they go by
Tonight I'm gonna rest my chemistry
Tonight I'm gonna rest my chemistry
I live my life filled with no pain
Just some rage and three kinds of yes
And I've made stairways
Such scenes for things that I regret
Oh, those days in the sun
They bring a tear to my eye
Tonight I'm gonna rest my chemistry
Tonight I'm gonna rest my chemistry

Who Do You Think?
Slow decay, I won't stop fighting yeah
Who do you think that is there?
I came to fight, I am in the air
I know you follow the body
Let go now to the coast of hypnotic we go
I only call them when I know
I don't see them
I only call them when I know

Slow decay, I won't

I know you follow the body, Let go now
to the coast of hypnotic that won't stop now
If making a taste for me
you're making your own way
Now who do you think, I said who do you think now?
Oh, how I pass the days, you know how much I care
Oh, through the wax and waning, you know I will be there
Oh, at your faded grace I know now not to stare
Slow decay, I won't stop fighting yeah
Who do you think that is there?
I came to fight, I am in the air
I always fall in these fights I know why
And from the birth strings of life I go right
But controlling the agents takes a toll on my brain

Wrecking Ball

Nobody warned you,
Nobody told you, to make up your mind.
Nobody told you, that I could just waltz through and shake up your style.

Go inside,
Going somewhere, bonus tactile,
And no one's for me,
Going Wild, your like new year.

The Lighthouse
This place is set to break
It's just as safe from the outside tonight
And I want that
I face the storms appetite
From the lighthouse
And I want that
I embrace the storm and the night
Whole...
What do the waves have to say now?
What do the waves have to say now, now?
Slow now
And let the waves have their way now
Slow
And let the waves have their day
And I want that
Here I've been living, unloosened from sin
Upward and outward, "Begin, begin."
Here I've been loosened, unliving within
Inwardly urgent, I'm sinking again
The Lighthouse
It's just as safe from the outside tonight
And I want that
I face the storms appetite
From the lighthouse
And I want that
I embrace the storm and the night
Whole...
What do the waves have to say now?
What do the waves have to say now, now?
Slow now
And let the waves have their way now
Slow
And let the waves have their day
And I want that
Here I've been living, unloosened from sin
Upward and outward, "Begin, begin."
Here I've been loosened, unliving within
Inwardly urgent, I'm sinking again

Our Love to Admire is the third studio album by American rock band Interpol, released on July 10, 2007, through Capitol Records and Parlophone. Recorded at Electric Lady Studios in Greenwich Village and the Magic Shop in New York City, Our Love to Admire is the group's first and, to date, only album to be released on a major label as they departed from Matador Records beforehand. On April 25, 2007, the band officially announced the album title as Our Love to Admire as well as the track listing. The first single off the new album, "The Heinrich Maneuver", was released on May 7, 2007.
Our Love to Admire was largely well-received; however, the album's elaborate musical arrangement polarized some critics, since it was such a departure from the relatively simple sound the band had been known for on previous albums. The album was re-released with a bonus DVD in the UK and Mexico on November 19, 2007, featuring music videos for "The Heinrich Maneuver" and "No I in Threesome" as well as live performances from the Astoria. Paul Banks would later state that Our Love to Admire was the worst experience the band ever had working on an album, owing largely to the pressure and stress of working with a major label. Following the album's release, Interpol returned to Matador.

The album was re-released with a bonus DVD in the UK and Mexico on November 19, 2007, featuring music videos for "The Heinrich Maneuver" and "No I in Threesome" as well as live performances from the Astoria. Paul Banks would later state that Our Love to Admire was the worst experience the band ever had working on an album, owing largely to the pressure and stress of working with a major label. Following the album's release, Interpol returned to Matador.
