Biography

The Strokes are an American rock band from New York City. Formed in 1998, the band is composed of singer Julian Casablancas, guitarists Nick Valensi and Albert Hammond Jr., bassist Nikolai Fraiture, and drummer Fabrizio Moretti. Following the conclusion of five-album deals with RCA and Rough Trade, the band has continued to release new music through Casablancas' Cult Records. The band's debut album, Is This It (2001), was met with widespread critical acclaim and helped usher in the garage rock revival movement of the early 21st century; it was ranked No. 8 on Rolling Stone's 100 "Best Debut Albums of All Time", No. 2 on Rolling Stone's "100 Best Albums of the '00s", No. 199 on Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums of All Time", and No. 4 on NME's "Top 500 Albums of All Time".

LYRICS

Can the dark side light my way out? Yeah
Lay your hand across my face, yeah
Time we lost, that's all my fault
Please don't be long
'Cause I want your love
I don't have love
Without your arm
Life is too short
But I will live for you

How did this fit in your story? Yeah
Why'd you let them judge your body? Yeah
I'll be waiting there outside, yeah

Please don't be long
'Cause I want your arms
I don't have fun
Without your love
Life is too short
But I will live for you
You're back in love
But I will live for you my selfless love

I bite my tongue, I wait my turn
I waited for a century
Waste my breath, no lessons learned
I turn and face the enemy

I'm not scared, just don't care
I'm not listening, you hear?
He's never there, I don't care
I can't tell you what and where
Yeah, yeah
