Quote:
You walked around, thought yourself beautiful
Just too bad they stared, Just too bad they stared
Broke up your crown, called you unusuable
See how well you fared

Stole underground, To kick your heart around
Banished from above, banished from above
Forgot yourself, Your home and shot your health
Left it all for love

And on their lips
Delirious quips
Last seen with friends wishing them well

Delayed, seduced you listened for the truth
Just too bad they lied, just too bad they lied
O come around in form of future youth
Summoned from the sky
Hours - TV on the Radio

That's only half the song, but I don't think the second half is quite as absorbing. TV on the Radio are in general, brilliant lyricists.
