Strokes - Soma lyrics

Soma is what they would take when hard times opened their eyes Saw pain in a new way, high stakes for a few names Racing against sun beams, losing against their dreams In your eyes And I am stop and go In your eyes See I am stop and go In your eyes Let's go When I saw her for the first time, lips moved as her eyes closed Heard something in his voice "And I'll be there", he says, then he walks out Somehow he was trying too hard to be like them Well I am stop and go In your eyes And I am stop Oh, darling, let me go Tried it once and they like it, then tried to hide it Says, "I've been doing this 25 years" But I'm not listening no more And these friends, they keep asking for more Oh, yeah Oh, but that's it
