I never really knew how we were moving
'Cause we didn't come to light this loss
Just because
1972, I barely knew of
Lights and sounds and sparkle eyes and reasons to lose
It's ok, got the cemetery goal
Beauty can't console
Life leads, eyes bless
I've got it, you need it, we want it, it's dead
House calm, wives left, we're dying here, we're dying here
I've got it, you need it, we want it, it's love
I've seen it, I've heard it, I steal it, it's death
We're dying, we're dying, we're dying
Blinking in the bright light with you
I really have to believe that everyone and everything
Just shines for the one to find this is loss
And just because
Sparkle like you would for them
Preyed upon, I prayed within
The hearth, the home, the house, the sin that waits until then
The call, the home, the shape, the dead, the centuries dying
Life leads, eyes bless
I've got it, you need it, we want it, it's dead
House calm, wives left, we're dying here, we're dying here
I've got it, you need it, we want it, it's love
I've seen it, I've heard it, I steal it, it's death
We're dying, we're dying, we're dying
Broken Social Scene is a Canadian indie rock band, a musical collective including as few as six and as many as nineteen members at any given time. The group was formed in 1999 by core members Kevin Drew (vocals, guitar) and Brendan Canning (vocals, bass). Alongside Drew and Canning, the other core members of the band are Justin Peroff (drums), Andrew Whiteman (guitar) and Charles Spearin (guitar).
Drew and Canning recorded and released the band's debut album Feel Good Lost (2001), with contributions from Ohad Benchetrit (also known as Years), Evan Cranley, Leslie Feist, Justin Peroff, Bill Priddle, and Charles Spearin. All of these musicians would emerge as key members of Broken Social Scene in future endeavors.
Most of its members play in various other groups and solo projects, mainly in the city of Toronto.
The group's sound combines elements of all of its members' respective musical projects, and is occasionally considered baroque pop. It includes grand orchestrations featuring guitars, horns, woodwinds, and violins, unusual song structures, and an experimental, and sometimes chaotic production style from David Newfeld, who produced their albums You Forgot It In People (2002) and Broken Social Scene (2005).

have a nice time
Greetings wolff, I'll match your 6 rating on first listen and see where it goes from there.
Edit : a year later I'm at a 7. A Broken Social Scene I like, who knew? (can we abbreviate their name to BS with an extra S? :) )
I usually try to keep it positive, but this song is a mess on several different levels...

Yep, the lyrics make zero sense, not even in a symbolic/abstract way. I was alive in 1972 and have no idea what the heck they are trying to convey.
