Compliments Lyrics

Cover art for Compliments lyrics by Bloc Party

When i listen to this song, I see a movie portrayed in my head. I see Kele getting tired of the day to day routine he's in. And as he's walking through the house he sees everyone doing the same thing they do everyday, whether it be to please society, or just to "get by." Everyone these days have the same problem of getting into a routine that they consider the "norm" and don't do anything to be above the rest. They end up becoming satisfied that their life is the same boring shit day in and day out.
