I digress... I think that this is Interpol showing how awesome they are. The song effectively has no lyrics (the only words, repeated over & over, are just as much an ambient part of the song as the instruments), but the musicianship is great. The song is gentle and sorrowful, but gets forceful toward the end like it's gaining a sense of being and builds to a climax that is only fleeting. It seems like it could be a song about death... the one direction we're all heading in.
