I don't want to be a lost soul swimming in a fishbowl, year after year. And one of these mornings we'll be the loudest you hear. And someone told me there's a girl out there with love in her eyes and flowers in her hair. And her eyes are full of sweet tides, pools of love. And in the morning I'll be with you, but it'll be a different kind. And you know I'll be where my heart feels free , and my thoughts are free to fly. And in that dream I'm as old as the mountains, still as starlight reflected in fountains. And I left my heart to the wild hunt a-comin'. And oh, I could not need you more than now. And the tightrope that I'm walking just sways and ties. And you are not alone in this. And you'll follow the creek that runs out into the sea.
And you'll find the peace of the Lord.
“It really does feel like the third chapter in a book. We created some characters on the first record, some of which are real people, some of which are ourselves, so it’s not so hard to keep following them and see what their concerns are now and how their lives have changed.”

Vampire Weekend’s third album is a remarkable progression from a band that was already functioning at a high level. The songs are more spontaneous and dynamic and, along with the more lived-in sonics, Modern Vampires finds the group taking a leap forward into emotional directness.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
9.3!!!!!!
