Soma Lyrics - The Strokes
Review The Song (2)
Soma is what they would take when
Hard times opened their eyes
Saw pain in a new way
High stakes for a few names
Racing against sunbeams
Losing against their dreams
In your eyes
I am
Stop
And go
In your eyes
I am
Stop
And go
In your eyes
Lets go
When I saw her for the first time
Lips moved as her eyes closed
Heard something in his voice
"And i'll be there," he says and he walks out
Somehow he was trying too hard to be like them
And I am
Stop
And go
In your eyes
And I am
Stop
Oh darling let me go
Try it once and they liked it
And tried to hide it
Says I've been doing this twenty-five years
Well I'm not listening no more
And these friends they keep asking for more
Oh yeah
Oh, but that's it
Hard times opened their eyes
Saw pain in a new way
High stakes for a few names
Racing against sunbeams
Losing against their dreams
In your eyes
I am
Stop
And go
In your eyes
I am
Stop
And go
In your eyes
Lets go
When I saw her for the first time
Lips moved as her eyes closed
Heard something in his voice
"And i'll be there," he says and he walks out
Somehow he was trying too hard to be like them
And I am
Stop
And go
In your eyes
And I am
Stop
Oh darling let me go
Try it once and they liked it
And tried to hide it
Says I've been doing this twenty-five years
Well I'm not listening no more
And these friends they keep asking for more
Oh yeah
Oh, but that's it

Brave new world | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/28/09
This song is about brave new world by aldous Huxley. Soma was the name of the drug of choice in the distopia of the future, and one of the many characters who doesn't fit in refuses to take the soma like everyone else because he wants reality at the expense of comfort/pleasure.
hurray for the strokes | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/11/04
the strokes are already so good and I've just downloaded this song. Let me tell you something: even without this masterpiece, the strokes are the best band in a long time, and I think that won't change in a long time either. This song just prooves how f***ing good they are.
