Song lyrics
Yeah but nobody searches
Nobody cares somehow
When the loving that you've wasted
Comes raining from a hapless cloud
And I might stop and look upon your face
Disappear in the sweet, sweet gaze
See the living that surrounds me
Dissipate in a violet blaze

Can’t you see what you’ve done to my heart
And soul?
This is a wasteland now

We spies
We slow hands
Put the weights around yourself
We spies
Oh yeah we slow hands
You put the weights all around yourself now

I submit my incentive is romance
I watched the pole dance of the stars
We rejoice because the hurting is so painless
From the distance of passing cars
But I am married to your charms & grace
I just go crazy like the good old days
You make me want to pick up a guitar
And celebrate the myriad ways that I love you

Can you see what you’ve done to my heart
And soul?
This is a wasteland now

We spies
Yeah we slow hands
You put the weights all around yourself
We spies
Oh yeah we slow hands
Killer, for hire you know not yourself

We spies
We slow hands
You put the weights all around yourself
We spies
Oh yeah we slow hands
We retire like nobody else
We spies
Intimate slow hands killer
For hire you know not yourself
We spies
Intimate slow hands
You let the face slap around herself

interpol is a great band and their lyrics make more sense than you think. but most of the lyrics that are posted on this site are at least partially incorrect. go to their website at www.interpolny.com if you want to know what paul is really singing about in interpol's songs.

Nice vocals there. And I thought about something. You know how the hands of a clock seem to go so slow sometimes and you're miserable? Maybe that's it.

I like how in the video, when he says "look what you did to my heart" he throws that thing down and it smashes all over the place. That's great.

I think the song is about a stalking type of situation. "Spies" refers to people that obeserve with great detail from a distance and I do think the "slow hands" part refers to the slow hands of a clock. There is a line that goes "the hurting is so painless from the distance of passing cars" and another line that makes a reference to watching "pole dance of the stars. There is no part of the lyrics that suggest there was a real relationship, or even a conversation. Soooo ... I THINK that the song is about somebody that stalked an exotic dancer for a while and eventually got ther heart broke.... but maybe I'm reaching too much here?
