The Lighthouse Lyrics

Cover art for The Lighthouse lyrics by Interpol

Listen to the music, can't you feel waves? It's soo obvious

I think it's about the life of a lighthouse the vocal is soo calm and rather cold, like a lighthouse

The lighthouse knows that he will collapse, he sees the giant wave coming towards. But he is still calm-as a building-tower...

"I warned them" its life was spent warning people, the use of a lighthouse

"What do the waves have to say now? What do the waves have to say now?" the lighthouse spent its life listening to the waves

"Here I've been living On roofs made from sin I put an outward, "Begin, begin."" It has been living in civilization and man-made lands(roofs made from sin). He helped them with their sins, showed them their ways and let them begin...

"Here I've been lucid I'm living within Inwardly urgent And sinking again" He knows the upcoming wave will destroy it, he prepares for it very calmly...
