After all these implements and text designed by intellects
of x to find evidently there's just so much that hides
And though the saints of us divine in ancient Feeding lines
their sentiment is just as hard to pluck from the vine

I'm trying hard not to pretend
allow myself no mock defense
As I step into the night

Since I don't have the time nor mind to figure out
The nursery rhymes that helped us out in making sense of our lives
The cruel uneventful state of apathy releases me
I value them but I won't cry every time one's wiped out

I'm trying hard not to give in
Battened down to fair the wind
rid my head of this pretense
allow myself no mock defense
As I step into the night

Mercy's eyes are blue
when she places them in front of you
nothing holds a roman candle to
the solemn warmth you feel inside

there's no measuring of
nothing else is love

I'll try hard not to give in
Battened down to fare the wind
Rid my head of this pretense
Allow myself no mock defense
As I step into the night

Mercy's eyes are blue
When she places them in front of you
nothing really holds a candle to
the solemn warmth you feel inside of you

Review about Saint Simon

By combining elements new ones are formed | Reviewer: -Your name here- | 10/22/09

Water has different properties than hydrogen and oxygen, does that not make it its own? You say that this band pulls elements from separate bands but by combining them in the way that they do, they become unique, you don't call ragtime jazz

Yes, they do take aspects from other bands, but that's what all bands do. Myself being a musician, and knowing a lot of musicians have to say that most inspiration comes from the music you listen to, there is no completely unique band.

k-man? | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/28/08

i wouldn't say they're unique, they just take aspects from other bands and incorporate them together. It's not bad, but they're definately not unique. In this song are elements from weezer, SOAD, brian wilson, pixies, and modest mouse

Lucy's eyes | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/21/07

I believe it's "Lucy's eyes are blue when she places them in front of you." In paintings and statues, the martyr St. Lucy is frequently shown holding her eyes on a golden plate.

What an awesome song, I cant get it out of my head. The Shins are definitely one of the best unique bands going round at the moment
