Arctic Monkeys - love is a laserquest

가사는 사랑과 젊음, 그리고 그리움을 주제로 다루며, 상대방의 감정을 묻는 질문들이 담겨 있다
상대방과의 관계를 회상하고, 그리움을 느끼면서도 젊음을 잃지 않았기를 바라는 마음이 드러난다
주인공은 과거의 사랑을 단순한 아쉬움으로 치부하려 하지만, 진정한 감정은 쉽게 지워지지 않는다

Do you still feel younger than you thought you would by now
Or darling, have you started feeling old yet?
Don't worry, I'm sure that you're still breaking hearts
With the efficiency that only youth can harness
And do you still think love is a Laser Quest
Or do you take it all more seriously?
I've tried to ask you this in some daydreams that I've had
But you're always busy being make-believe
And do you look into the mirror to remind yourself you're there
Or have somebody's goodnight kisses got that covered?
When I'm not being honest
I pretend that you were just some lover
Now I can't think of there without thinking of you
I doubt that comes as a surprise
And I can't think of anything to dream about
I can't find anywhere to hide
And when I'm hanging on by the rings around my eyes
And I convince myself I need another
And for a minute, it gets easier
To pretend that you were just some lover
