Hostiles Lyrics

When the serve is done
And the parish shuffled some
And the May frequencies come
To keep you away
When your body aches
From the arms of dreams you keep
And the hours passed by
Just left on repeat

It'll be a silent day
I'll share with you
Fighting off the Hostiles
With whom we collude
Hoping to find the key
To this play of communications
Between you and me

When the LCD
Are all the player ones you can be
Put your foot down in the right hand lane
If you are with me
'Til the trains re-route
And the rush-hour is come
And the May frequencies
Have sent you to sleep

It'll be a silent day
I'll share with you
Fighting off the hostiles
With whom we collude
Hoping to find the key
To this play of communications
Between you and me

Don't burn so
Don't burn so
Don't burn so late
Don't burn so
Don't burn
Don't burn so late

It'll be a silent day
I'll share with you
Fighting off the hostiles
With whom we collude
Hoping to find the key
To this play of communications
Between you and me

Hostiles

Albarn told The Sun about this paean to 21st century ill-communication: "The hostiles are those characters in computer games that you just kill," he said. "They're completely soulless things given no character other than they're hostile to you."

"I felt the blankness of just kidding, the passive aggression that exists in computer games," Albarn continued. "It's kind of weird. However, I know I'm getting Grand Theft Auto 5!"

Damon Albarn told The Observer that he wrote this song after spending Christmas at his mother-in-law's house, "spending hours on the sofa playing The Dark Knight video game with my daughter, just zapping these endless characters with no real humanity."
