Machu Picchu
Strokes, The
Angles (2011)

I'm putting your patience to the test
I'm putting your body on the line, for less
And didn't you know there was a choice?
It's never yours but someone elses voice

Sellin' your body to the street
I'm sending your girlfriends to the night, for cheap
Wearing a jacket made of meat
Sending a letter waved with walls so sweet
And now you've heard that

Waves turn to grey
Life in the shade
A violent cloud
And that's on USA
Platinum's on the rise
Pay phones in the sky
I'm just tryin' to find
A mountain I can climb

I'm putting your patience to the test
I'm putting your body on the line, for less
And didn't you know there was a choice?
It's never yours in someone elses voice
And now you've seen that

Waltz on the grey
Life in the shade
A violent crime
And that's on USA
Born on the right
Circles in disguise
I'm just tryin' to find
A mountain I can climb

Tell us, are you gonna tell us?
Why do we feel so jealous?
Why do we feel so silent?
Why is it always silent?
(I didn't want to ask you baby
I didn't want you to hurt you
And everybody is singing
And you didnt have to tell me
And everyone keeps on yelling)

Alright. Why are you waiting behind the door?

Life turns to dust
And rain turns to rust
Gossip is a truth
And money paid for the lies we took
And now that I'm surprised?
Ever since I'm in the skies
I'm just tryin' to find
Enough space for you and I
