Modern Soul by James Blake was released about a week ago. As with all his songs, at first I didn’t like it.

At first. The tension of it, what was almost uncomfortable to take in, found its place. To break into the first I remember laughing. The poetry of it is like forehead placed on train’s cold glass.

Lyrics:

I know a crossroads where I see them, see them

I want it to be over, I want it to be over

So I swim to you while I’m sleeping

Through sage green rivers of England

I see the scenery changes, changes

I want it to be over, I want it to be over

When I don’t think of you, the willpower

What I didn’t see was I was talking to so many people at once

I had no idea I was

I had no idea of the difference between

The way I saw your face and the way it was

Because of a few songs

Because of a few songs

Because of a few songs

Because of a few songs

Because of a few songs

Because of a few songs

Because of a few songs

Because of a few songs

I remember laughing; to take that away from you

To take that away from you; I remember laughing

I remember laughing; to take that away from you

To take that away from you; I remember laughing

The smaller the waves; you let me down

The longer I will defend you

The smaller the waves; you let me down

The longer I will defend you (because of a few songs)

I want it to be over, I want it to be over

I want it to be over, I want it to be over

I want it to be over, I want it to be over

I know a crossroads where I see them, see them

I want it to be over, I want it to be over

I want it to be over, I want it to be over

I want it to be over, I want it to be over
