Lot Like Birds, A - In Trances Lyrics
The sign above the door says no solicitors, whereas the vines along the wall scream no visitors at all; family, friend, stranger or otherwise. I never came in through the front door anyway though and I'd been here a million times. I'd lived a secret, favorite life within this house and I'd done my best to hide it. Loved it deeply, called it home but never ever dreamed I'd die inside it. I'd come in through the window, pried it open, slipped in gently and drank here, loved here and slept here. And when it came time to leave, I thought it best to leave the way I came but the window always stuck in odd ways when I tried to exit through it. It asked me questions. "If the eyes are the window to the soul, why do you only feel alive when they are closed?" And then something else took hold and the window broke.
The glass went only inches into my skin but only inches was enough.
And once the guilt has had its fill, only then will the animals eat me as well.

First of all, this this doesn't sound that much like La Dispute, and even so, they were not the first band to put spoken word in music, and definitely not the first one to use a tune as backdrop for poetry.
Stop pretending that you know anything about music just because you can prove that a band doesn't sound completely original.
Musicians don't exist in a vacuum, they take inspiration from other bands, that is how it works, La Dispute is most likely inspired by bands like mewithoutYou, Fugazi, At The Drive-In etc. but i don'¨t see you people use that against them.
i like the clock chime
+Bored Game Films doorbell
this isnt anything like la dispute wow
Saw them guys on 3/12/14 at NSN Festival. Kurt hands me the mic at "Only then will the animals eat me as well," and I'm a goner. Goodnight, folks.
good story <3
Yay, Crazy Clock!
haha i just think of rock solid from kurts dgd days, i them though<3
they're coming to dallas jan 17 <3 deff going hell yeah <3333
Oh my god, that show last night was incredible... I'm suffering from post-concert depression though :(
i didn't get to stay for the whole thing, ugh 3
Really!? That literally sucks so bad, they were unbelievable, how much of their set did you get to see?
i was only after the first too bands played i think, i dont know cause i went late too. when i walked down stairs in a hurry, i saw them playing pool by the bar :'( had my chance to take a pic with them and i didnt
LA DISPUTE INVENTED POETRY
LA DISPUTE DID IT FIRST
If only they knew the paraphrasing of Anabelle Lee that they did...Damn that was a f'n good song.
La dispute is great, A lot like birds is just as great, I love this song, I love la dispute.
Get mad.
@Ricardo Nelson i love both bands also i was just making fun of everyone comparing this to la dispute just because its poetry lol.
La dispute is far from the first band doing poetric music or wtv lol
ALLB was better than la dispute
shouldnt you la dispute lovers be writing shitty poetry and crying somewhere?
So I'm not the only person who noticed that this track uses a common doorbell chime, right? Pretty awesome
I noticed that too! I thought it was quite clever
They state that in an interview where they describe each room. It's supposed to be welcoming, then when "the window breaks" it starts to all go wrong. In the next song No Nature, they introduce the same melody, except fucked up and evil sounding.

A Lot Like Birds. One of tje greatest bands of all time. I saw them last Saturday at South By So What and I got to meet them
I already have the album, but I'm still going to buy it because they really deserve the money. It is so beautiful, I can't wait for everyone to hear.
This is the first track on the album. "In Trances".
Preordering this shit. A LOT LIKE BIRDS, you have my support.
Excited !!!!!
This is amazing, I can't freaking wait.
Can anyone get me the transcripted lyrics for this?
no this is A Lot Like Birds.
Goosebumps
Put in my preorder in for the cd.
Soo fucking stoked!!!
I take this statement back. The new song is amazing fuck what I said!
I'm pretty sure the 2 thumbs down were either accidents or little Wayne
It's the Westminster chimes.
I DEMAND PRE ORDER BUNDLES!!!!!
The spoken part bringing me back to OG Underoath, so stoked.
Too late, he just got married.. To a female.
Gna save my iTunes gift card for yr album. So excited!
COME OUT SOONER!!!!!!!
If this is just an interlude to a song, that sing is gonna be great
i'm excited for this one. if it's half as good as conversation piece i'll be content but i'm expecting an even better album this time now that they've had kurt with them for a time. october is gonna be a good month for me.
Happy Birthday, Cory Lockwood!
I've watched this several times now and every time I get chills at 1:12.
I almost wish they don't release anymore of this album and then let us be blown away when it comes out
I smiled like an idiot when I heard it.
It relates so much to the subject matter of the album. ;w;
Kurt is such a nice guy i would go gay for him and be the woman in the relationship
I HAVE BEEN LISTENING TO THIS OVER AND OVER AGAIN FOR AN HOUR
It's a doorbell
how many times can i listen to this ? i dont know.
whoever thumb downed this.... ur gonna fuckin pay
Teaser music is already my single of the year!
WHO THE FUCK GAVE THIS A THUMBS DOWN?!?!?
Can't wait. That little melody sounded like Balamb Garden in Final Fantasy VIIi
I wanna see the words so i can read them.
It's gonna be good
I'm going to lose my shit when this comes out......
Sounds a little like The Listener.
beautiful
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASEEEEEEEE release a track just to quench my thirst for A Lot Like Birds!
Fuck that one guy who disliked it
most awesome.!!
when i poop it makes me feel good.
Nothing but chills
please. how much money do u want from me ??
Ohhh O___O!
I love this so damn much
I think just hearing those tones in the beginning set it off for me. I'm waiting in heavy anticipation for this album.
Fucking sex
Thanks man!
I like Joe's haircut
...came time to leave I thought it best to leave the way I came. But the window always stuck in odd ways when I tryed to exit through it. It asked me questions: "If the eyes are the window to the soul, why do you only feel alive when they are closed?" and then something else took hold... And the window broke..."

this video has only been out for 45 minutes and someone's already brought up DGD.
smh
La dispute?
Equal Vision, you have no idea how amazing this is. I can't wait for the tours to come!
what is this song name?!
I love DGD. They are what got me in to music basically. But this album is what I'm anticipating more.
this album is going to be great. i can feel it :o
this is gonna be epic
No band has ever made me feel the way A Lot Like Birds makes me feel. I don't know if I'm more excited for this release or the new DGD. Either Way October will be rad.
Conversation Piece hasn't left my car stereo since I bought it 2 years ago. Bring the fuckin' hype, let's go!
I'm so stoked for this! Equal Vision, this is quite the band you have here.
Sounds fucking amazing.
