Jblake27 - Yes there is definitely a similarity there. Fanboys will refuse to acknowledge it.

Midlake – Branches Lyrics 18 years ago
Ahh...this album is so mournful and thought-provoking.
I possess the same kind of faith in my opinions as circle_w does, but...

This song just feels like it's speaking of two people who have experienced their own share of pain - "...I also live under branches, I'd rather not live in these places..." - and while the writer now attempts to seek partnership and solace in this kind woman, she seems content to seek it within herself. She struggles with this though, as she "...wakes up awfully early these days..."

The verse that says "I saw she was busy...etc.," evokes images of someone reaching out, only to be told not to bother, they don't need it.

Tom Waits – Lie to Me Lyrics 18 years ago
Too good.

Also, the line in the last verse is "whip me baby, lie like a rug" - not 'dog', which is used in the first verse. Just FYI.
