Suede - Wastelands Lyrics






I watch you drift away
Around the room in my dress
The jewels on your bracelets
Have seen their best
I watch the sweat form
Against your clothes
I've seen the look on their faces
I think they know

That the clock is ticking away
And the wind is calling us
And the pleasantries will chain us
No more

When it all is much too much
We'll run to the wastelands
Where the snow is all there is
And words sound different
When it all is much too much
Meet me in the wastelands
Where the fear will fade away
Where the children in us play

I walk the smoky room
And stumble into you
The chattering of their voices
Says nothing new

But the clock is ticking away
And the wind is calling us
And the way you make your exits
There are no words

When it all is much too much
We'll run to the wastelands
At the car beside the roads
And seek each other
When it feels like much too much
Meet me in the wastelands
Where the horror slowly fades
Where the children in us play

When the world is much too much
We'll run to the wastelands
Leave footprints in the snow
'Til our ties are severed
When it all is too much to much
Meet me in the wastelands
Make a chain of flowers
Like our ties are severed

When the world is much too much
Meet me in the wastelands
At the car beside the roads
And seek each other
When the world is much too much
Meet me there in the wastelands
And the wind is on our face
And our veins are opened

When the world is much too much
Meet me in the wastelands
Make a chain of flowers
And the children in us play

The sky was steely
The countryside was bare
Twigs crackled under Mole's feet
Mole was alone
And far from help
And night was closing in

Suede Wastelands Comments
  1. L.... N....

    I watch you drift away
    Around the room in my dress
    The jewels on your bracelets
    Have seen their best
    I watch the sweat form
    Against your clothes
    I've seen the look on their faces
    I think they know

    That the clock is ticking away
    And the wind is calling us
    And the pleasantries will chain us
    No more

    When it all is much too much
    We'll run to the wastelands
    Where the snow is all there is
    And words sound different
    When it all is much too much
    Meet me in the wastelands
    Where the fear will fade away
    Where the children in us play

    I walk the smoky room
    And stumble into you
    The chattering of their voices
    Says nothing new

    But the clock is ticking away
    And the wind is calling us
    And the way you make your exits
    There are no words

    When it all is much too much
    We'll run to the wastelands
    At the car beside the roads
    And seek each other
    When it feels like much too much
    Meet me in the wastelands
    Where the horror slowly fades
    Where the children in us play

    When the world is much too much
    We'll run to the wastelands
    Leave footprints in the snow
    'Til our ties are severed
    When it all is too much to much
    Meet me in the wastelands
    Make a chain of flowers
    Like our ties are severed

    When the world is much too much
    Meet me in the wastelands
    At the car beside the roads
    And seek each other
    When the world is much too much
    Meet me there in the wastelands
    And the wind is on our face
    And our veins are opened

    When the world is much too much
    Meet me in the wastelands
    Make a chain of flowers
    And the children in us play

    The sky was steely
    The countryside was bare
    Twigs crackled under Mole's feet
    Mole was alone
    And far from help
    And night was closing in

    I don`t know why this song makes me want to cry.

  3. B.... ....

    The way i love this video is just maniacal.

  4. B.... D....

    It's a travesty this doesn't have millions of views...

  5. K.... D....

    Film location ? Does anyone know ?

    K.... D....

    Grain Fort - Isle of Grain

    K.... D....

    @Blue Jean Thanks man :)

    K.... D....

    @Knen Da No problem, bro!

  6. c.... s....

    With all my love to suede, and only my bank account and god knows im a huge fan...sometimes i just dont understands bret's cooky artistic vision regarding the vids for the blue hour..then again i assume when you become just a big star, you are forgiven for extremely esoteric, eccentric too arsty taste.

  7. N.... R....

    Obviously the tower is Grain Tower Battery. But what is the town at the start?

  8. B.... ....

    La bellezza di questo video è sconcertante... è questa la grande bellezza.

  9. F.... O....

    Richard Oaks - the UK's greatest guitarist since the mighty John McGeoch.

  10. d.... a....

    Nice song

  11. F.... F....

    i hope suede will never stop making music.
    The only band that I still like to hear since the 90s

  12. s.... c....

    why are you running away?

  13. L.... N....

    Lirik:
    I watch you drift away
    Around the room in that dress
    The jewels on your bracelets
    Have seen their best

    I watch the sweat fall
    Against your clothes
    I've seen the look on the faces
    I think they know

    That the clock is ticking away
    And the wind is calling us
    And the pleasantries will chain us
    No more

    When it all is much too much
    We'll run to the wastelands
    Where the snow is all there is
    And words sound different
    When it all is much too much
    Meet me in the wastelands
    Where the fear will fade away
    Where the children in us play

    I walk the smoky room
    And stumble into you
    The chattering of their faces
    Says nothing new

    But the clock is ticking away
    And the wind is calling us
    And the way you make your exit
    There are no words

    Would it all is much too much
    We'll run to the wastelands
    At the car beside the road
    And taking shelter
    When it feels like much too much
    Meet me in the wastelands
    Where the horror slowly fades
    Where the children in us play

    When the world is much too much
    We'll run to the wastelands
    Leave footprints in the snow
    Till our ties are severed

    When it all is much too much
    Meet me in the wastelands
    Make a chain of flowers
    Like our ties are severed

    When the world is much too much
    Meet me in the wastelands
    At the car beside the road
    And taking shelter

    When the world is much too much
    Meet me there in the wastelands
    And the wind is on our face
    And our veins are opened

    When the world is much too much
    Meet me in the wastelands
    Make a chain of flowers
    And the children in us play

    The sky was steely
    The countryside was bare
    Twigs crackled under Mole's feet
    Mole was alone
    And far from help
    And night was closing in

    L.... N....

    Thank you, man!

  14. E.... C....

    Banda muito boa....gostaria de ter a discografia deles em vinil...

  15. J.... c....

    3 obras maestras seguidas en 5 años, tras 27 de carrera, iguala eso... 3 masterpieces in a 5 years row, after a 27 years career. Match that!

  16. N.... ....

    no more edgy songs a-la animal nitrate or trash, their last albums sound good but depressing, these are the songs of dying men, hopeless. Guess that's part of their appeal.

  17. D.... ....

    Alguém do Brasil, tem Suede como banda favorita? Da um like aí galera!!

  18. J.... K....

    Suede ... Still makin it funky enough!!!

  19. T.... E....

  31. M.... ....

    I can see the director while making the video: no, no, we can´t have that, that´s too risky for us. And that boy: no, no it´s not a problem. i´ve done that dozens of times :) 4:00

  32. s.... p....

    i want to run

  33. �.... �....

    Brilliant!!!

  34. G.... M....

    I am so amazed that nobody in the states knows who Suede is. They are still one of the greatest bands ever, with such a unique sound. This tune is beauty again. Please tour the US soon!

    G.... M....

    Wow someone else in the states that loves Suede?! Nice to meet you!! My greatest wish is that they tour here. Probably won't happen, but I can dream lol.

  35. T.... ....

    Suede is one of the bands that marked my life. Impossible not to like them.

  39. z.... m....

  40. S.... ....

    What makes suede great is their vocal & guitar sound. Suede wouldn't be Suede without Brett Anderson's vocal or Richard's guitar riffs.

    S.... ....

    With b butlers HISTORY,

    S.... ....

    And Neil playing keys and produce the strings too

    Pure Suede, pure gold. A great single taken by the album of the year ("The Blue Hour")

  51. B.... B....

    a yearning, a pain, a bittersweet feeling of being alone connected with everyone with the dark love for me and others - certainly everything will flow

  52. P.... M....

    "The Blue Hour" is fantastic. My favorite album among those released in 2018.

  53. A.... G....

  54. E.... ....

    Totally love this song ❤️❤️❤️

  55. C.... J....

    Que bella cancion!! Es como beber un concentrado de Suede!! Sabe, suena, se siente Suede, es 100% buen Suede. Night Thoughts me parece un album tan tan bueno (mi album preferido en general quizas de los ultimos 5 anios) que estaba preocupado de como seria el follow-up de ese album. Tenia miedo de decepcionarme y no queria hacerlo en verdad... pero este album es bello, y acabo con esa preocupacion!! Es como Night Thoughts, se escucha de comienzo a fin y es todo un paseo de sensaciones!! Y esta cancion te dice en la cara que hay Suede para rato!! Ya quiero ver el concierto de este disco!!

  56. A.... G....
