Blur - The Narcissist

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1484480
Verse 1: Damon & Graham
Looked in the mirror
So many people standing there
I walked towards them
Into the floodlights
I heard no echo (No echo)
There was distortion everywhere (Everywhere)
I found my ego (My ego)
I felt rubato standing there
Found my transcendence (Transcendence)
It played in mono painted blue (Painted blue)
You were the Pierrot (The Pierrot)
I was the dark room (The dark room)

Chorus
I'll be shining light in your eyes (In your eyes)
You'll probably shine it back on me
But I won't fall this time
With Godspeed I'll heed the signs

Verse 2
I saw the solstice (The solstice)
The service station on the road (On the road)
I took the acid (The acid)
Under the white horses (Down the road)
My heart it quickened (It quickened)
I could not tear myself away (Myself away)
Became addiction (Addiction)
If you see darkness look away (Look away)

Chorus
I'll be shining light in your eyes (Look away)
You will probably shine it back on me (Look away)
But I won't fall this time
With Godspeed I'll heed the signs

Verse 3
Oh, glorious world (Glorious)
Oh, potent waves valleys gone wild (Potent waves)
Connect us to love (Us to love)
And keep us peaceful for a while (For a while)

Chorus
I'll be shining light in your eyes (For a while)
You will probably shine it back on me (For a while)
But I won't fall this time
With Godspeed I'll heed the signs

I'll be shining light in your eyes (In your eyes, in your eyes)
You'll probably shine it back on me (In your eyes)
But I won't fall this time
With Godspeed I'll heed the signs
But I won't fall this time
With Godspeed I'll heed the signs

Biography

edit bio
British rock group Blur formed in 1988 and began life as a fairly unsuccessful shoegaze/madchester outfit, but the band quickly developed into becoming one of the leaders of the massive 1990s Britpop scene.

Their rivalry with contemporaries Oasis culminated in one of the most famous chart battles in British history – one which Blur won when “Country House” outsold Oasis’s “Roll With It” by 50,000 copies, giving Blur their first #1 single in the process.

Following this, the group embarked on a new musical direction, deliberately heading away from their trademark Britpop sound and instead taking influences from American alternative rock, a sound which earned them new fans in the US and gave them their second UK #1: “Beetlebum” in 1997.

However, due to rising tensions among the band members and the eventual departure of guitarist Graham Coxon, Blur went on a hiatus in 2003. Frontman Damon Albarn stayed in the music business both as a solo artist and with his cartoon band Gorillaz and supergroup The Good, the Bad and the Queen, and Coxon also continued making music. Meanwhile, Drummer Dave Rowntree went into politics, and bassist Alex James runs his own cheese farm.

Blur got back together in 2008 and toured, but fans had to wait until 2015 before their comeback-album The Magic Whip was released.
