The ninth track from Be Impressive. A lot more mellow than and different the rest of the album, with a strings arrangement dominating the song. In a radio interview, the band stated that this song was originally written for another band, but they felt like it told “the right story” for them.

Thread the Needle Lyrics

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
My mama told me not to worry now
‘Cause I'm old enough to be alone
I bend my knees and pray to god
I've always been the most impulsive one
And I know where I've been going wrong
I bend my knees and pray to god
I bend my knees and pray to god

[Chorus]
Oh my god I've tried to thread the needle
Into this old light
And I know sometimes it's hard to try
And I know sometimes it's hard to try
And I know sometimes, and I know sometimes
And I know, sometimes I hide

[Verse 2]
You'll find your feet, try not to worry now
‘Cause you're not too proud to need someone
I bend my knees and pray to god
I bend my knees and pray to god

[Chorus]
Oh my god I've tried to thread the needle
Into this old light
And I know sometimes it's hard to try
And I know sometimes it's hard to try
Oh my god I've tried to thread the needle
Into this old light
And I know sometimes it's hard to try
And I know sometimes it's hard to try
And I know sometimes, and I know sometimes
I know, sometimes I hide

[Interlude]

[Refrain] (x3)
Nineteen ninety-five, after school
Smoking cigarettes, punk hairdo
Hyper-colour T-shirts, pumping up your Reebok's
Smells like teenage spirit
