The Strokes- Machu Picchu Lyrics

I’m putting your patience to the test
I’m putting your body on the line, for less
And didn’t you know there was a choice?
It’s never yours but someone else’s voice

Slippin’ your body through the street
I’m sending your girlfriends to the night, for cheat
Wearing a jacket, play the meat
Sending a letter … so sweet

And now you’ve heard that
Weathers turn to grey
Life in the shade
A violent cloud
And that’s on USA
… on the rise
… in the sky
I’m just trying’ to find
A mountain I can climb

I’m putting your patience to the test
I’m putting your body on the line, for less
And didn’t you know there was a choice?
And it’s never yours and someone else’s voice

And now you’ve seen that
… grey
Life in the shade
A violent cloud
And that’s on US
Porn/Born on the rise
Circles in the skies

I’m just tryin’ to find
A mountain I can climb

(Tell us
Can … tell us
… is so jealous
… is so silent

… is always silent

Can … tell us
… is so jealous
… is so silent
… is always silent

Can … tell us
… is so jealous)

I didn’t wanna love you, baby
I didn’t wanna love you
And everybody saw me
And even if they knew me
Can anyone even love me?

Aww, right

Why are you waitin’?

Life turns to dust
And when it turns to rust
That’s it … true
…

And why do you look surprised?
Ever since I’m in the skies
I’m just tryin’ to find
A space for you and I
