About

A disco-influenced song for Sylvia Plath, the American poet and author who wrote The Bell Jar.

On the commentary for Girls In Peacetime Want To Dance, Stuart says:

[Plath] represents other authors, the moment where literature enters into a young person’s life and changes them. It doesn’t happen to...

Enter Sylvia Plath Lyrics

[Verse 1: Stuart Murdoch]
Come and steal my thoughts away
Thief of my identity
I was holding on to decency reality
Come and take me for a while
Up to your abundant pace
I'll be a sidecar if you want to race born to race

[Verse 2: Stuart Murdoch]
Put your hand on mine
And take me from this tired ride
Take me from this early night
From the sea and rain and countryside
If you talk to me, then soon
I'll be your accomplice in words
And we will talk only in verse
Talk only in verse

[Verse 3: Stuart Murdoch]
I, I will leave the ones I love
Leave them for the years to come
Even though I may be doing wrong, doing wrong
I will follow in your steps
Walk out to the station cold
Buy a ticket and then slowly go, slowly go

[Verse 4: Stuart Murdoch, Sarah Martin]
In this place and time
Easy is the first escape
I got money, I need no disguise
I'm a citizen and city-wise
In this time and place
There is no one who will shoot you down
There's no one who will take a girl
And tell her she can't have the world

[Bridge: Sarah Martin]
You constantly struggle for self-improvement
You have the ability to analyse and solve any problem
You are heading in the right direction
Your mind is creative, original and alert

[Verse 5: Sarah Martin]
Boy, you don't know what you want
It isn't what you think it is
All the dreams and guilt and loneliness, loneliness
Boy, if we were to be friends
Subtle is the art required
To draw the evil from this lonely pyre, lonely pyre

[Chorus: Stuart Murdoch, Sarah Martin]
Take this hand from me
And guide me round your tools of work
Fashion me into your junior clerk
Let me live in shadows of your words
When things get tough for you
As they did when you came up through the ranks
You can borrow from my faith, from my faith

Take this hand from me
And guide me round your tools of work
Fashion me into your junior clerk
Let me live in shadows of your words
When things get tough for you
As they did when you came up through the ranks
You can borrow from my faith, from my faith

[Outro]
From my faith, from my faith
From my faith, from my faith
From my faith, from my faith
From my faith, from my faith
