Little Thoughts Lyrics
Been thinking little thoughts
Keep walking try to stay up
Attention to the details
We go slowly, slowly down
I'll go back if you ask
I'll go back if you ask me
Backwards
This world ain't just made of facts
Every half hour is a countdown
If it's because of my age then you're a coward
If it's because of my age then you're a coward
If it's because of my age then you're a coward
I haven't got the guts to stand alone
I'll go back if you ask
I'll go back if you ask me
Backwards
Keep walking try to stay up
Attention to the details
We go slowly, slowly down
I'll go back if you ask me
Backwards
Every half hour is a countdown
If it's because of my age then you're a coward
If it's because of my age then you're a coward
If it's because of my age then you're a coward
I haven't got the guts to stand alone
I'll go back if you ask me
Backwards

This track was definetly on my copy of Silent Alarm. Weird. thereisnoiinteam pretty much summed up what this song is all about.
i love the beat of this song.
I think that this song is about the singer being in love with a girl who is younger than him, and he's saying that he wishes that he could go back in time so that he is her age.
it jus reminds me of the raw parts of a relationship where your loosing what you had and you stick your neck on the line. i agree with the thing about age being a theme although it doesn't mean its the singer.. the song writer could have created a charecter x
Fantastic song, and it's not on Silent Alarm?! Gutted!
I think noiinteam gave a good interpretation of the lyrics.
The exclusion of this track is the only bad point of Silent Alarm. I Love this track, i think it could have replaced one of the weaker tracks on the album. Thinking about it, thereisnoiinteam could be right about the lyrics.
buy the ep's its on that "little thoughts ep" its great
yes. i also think that this song is about him being in love with someone who is younger than him. i dont thinkhe minds about the age but the younger girl seems to care a little bit more. he is willing to do whatever i think.
Odd. I downloaded a copy of Silent Alarm without this on it, although when I bought it, it had it as track number 10. So I definitely have no idea what's going on.
I didn't like it as much the first time I heard it, but I've come to love this song. It does seem to be about wanting to reduce your age to be with someone younger. I'm surprised a song like this got written, and even more surprised that it got written so well.
This song is on the US version, but not the UK version. So if you bought Silent Alarm as an import, it won't have this song on it.
