THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM posten neuen Song

THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM (c) Christian Bendel 2009

Und wieder beglücken uns THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM mit einem neuen, fantastischen Song ihres Mitte Juni erscheinenden Albums "American Slang"...

"Boxer" heißt die neue Single von THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM und ist jetzt hier im Stream online. Zusätzlich haben THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM auch die Lyrics des Songs gepostet:

"I know you got your pride and your prose, tucked like a tommy gun.
but somewhere in the smoke, just in case you needed some...
I heard it`s been a ride, rougher than the last one.
but once you used to say, oh, the harder that they come.
but he swears he`s praying for a good time.
and he said she just doesn`t miss her.
I had heard you never really lose it, do you?

and you took it all gracefully on the chin,
knowing that the beating has to some day end,
you found the bandages inside the pen.
and the stitches on the radio.
but there was something heavy holding you down.
and there were whispers that were driving you crazy.
and now you haunt the heart of this town,
but I remember when I knew a boxer, baby.

and your tattooed knuckles oh how they grind down,
try to be a man, tough just like your father.
try to settle down, more like calm down,
remember that song and the reasons that we were singing for.
but he swears, some day he`s gonna find it,
and he said it`s somewhere in his framework,
I have heard, you never really lose it.

and you can wait all night long...
until all goes wrong.
till you waste away your soul,
you can wait, wait, wait" (Quelle)
