Andrew VanWyngarden talks about It’s Working:
“Lyrically, it’s about doing drugs. I didn’t realize it until now, but it’s kind of funny, because the first song on our first album was ‘Time to Pretend,’ which was about the imagined rock star scenario. So, ‘It’s Working’ is like, ‘Yeah, we went out th...
[Verse 1]
Here, you focus
So I can see your faces
The eyes are wrong
How will I know if it's working right?
[Verse 2]
Light confuses
The tiny isles of bruises
The mangled lines
I see the signs of aging
[Bridge]
But if I try to feel at all

I feel alright, my heart is racing
[Verse 3]

[Chorus]
But it's working in your blood (Working in your blood)
Which you know is not the same as love
Love is only in your mind (It's working in your mind)
And not your heart
[Interlude]
No, it's working
[Chorus]
It's working in your blood (Working in your blood)
Which you know is not the same as love
Love is only in your mind (It's working in your mind)
Not your heart
It's working in your blood (Working in your blood)
Yet, you know is not the same as love
Love is only in your mind (It's working in your mind)
Not your heart
It's working in your blood (Working in your blood)
Which you know is not the same as love
Love is only in your mind (It's working in your mind)
Not your heart
It's working in your blood (Working in your blood)
Which you know is not the same as love
Love is only in your mind (It's working in your mind)
Not your heart
