The Strokes - under cover of darkness

노래는 사랑하는 사람에게 그가 어려움을 겪고 있어도 기다리겠다는 마음을 전하고, 모든 장애물에도 불구하고 함께할 수 있는 날을 바라면서 서로의 선택을 존중하겠다고 다짐한다
또한 타인의 소음과 간섭에 지치면서도 최선을 다하라는 응원을 담고 있다

Slip back out of whack, at your best.
It's a nightmare,
So I'm joining the army.

Know how folks back out,
I'll still call.
Will you wait for me now?

We've got the right to live, fight to use it,
Got everything but you can just choose it,
I won't just be a puppet on a string.

Don't go that way.
I'll wait for you.

And I'm tired of all your friends
Listening at your door
And I want,
What's better for you.

So long, my friend
And adversary.
Oh, but I'll wait for you.

Get dressed, jump out of bed
You do it best.
Are you OK?
I've been all around this town
Everybody's been singing the same song for ten years.

I'll wait for you.
Will you wait for me too?

And they sacrifice their lives,
In the land of all closed eyes.
I've been saying it a billion times,
And I'll say it again.
So long, my friend
The sorry embrace.

Don't go that way.
I'll wait for you.

I'm tired of all your friends,
Knocking down your door.
Get up in the morning and give it your all.
So long, my friend
And adversary.

Oh I'll be waitin' for you.
