Bloc Party. - Uniform lyrics

rate me

There was a sense of disappointment as we sped away

Every town now just felt the same

The tear on my cheek just dried up; it wasn't there

All the young people looked the same

'Cause we're so handsome and we're so bored

So entertain us, tell me a joke

Make it long, make it last

Make it cruel, just make me laugh

We can't be hurt, we can't be hurt

Did you forget your blues on the weekend?

The internet will keep us together

MTV taught me how to sulk and love nothing

And how to grow my hair long

'Cause we're so handsome...

Why do you go picking fights that you'll lose?

So why do you go thinking thoughts that are above you?

'Cause I was brave, intelligent; I could have been a hero

No-one can be trusted under the age of fourteen

...My joy and pain is relative

I've gotten so good at lying to myself

Oh!

Well my pain and honour is used up

Oh! Oh! Oh!

My guns are rusted

So when're you gonna realize

Those are not your wrongs to right?

Have another life, have another...

I am a martyr, I just need a motive

I am a martyr, I just need a cause

I'm a believer, I just need a motive

I'm a believer, I just need a cause

We're finding it hard to be alone

We're finding it hard to break the mould

We're finding it hard to excite myself

We have nothing at all to say

Uniform

There was a sense of disappointment as we sped away

All the young people looked the same
