We Were Promised Jetpacks - Sore Thumb Lyrics






Retrace all my steps, which helps when I start to forget.

You said that to me, like the stories the thoughts never see.

I pray my whole day, to see what disasters we live that could call out her name and then wait,

let's see what comes crawling back, and I recover....

    it's crazy how music can influence a person huh? same here tho, I tried to do so too, but just have hope, and if it helps you as much as it helps me, continue to listen to music, I believe music was meant to give us something more than just melodies, or noise... music is a blessing sent from above, and people determine on how to use it, for good or for bad. listen to the right good music, like this song\band for instance, and it will take you to your very own little world! where you can control your feelings, thoughts, and body.
    Just have hope, and don't lose Faith in the man above.
    Blessings! :)

    Sharon Thomas it's "I'll recover " or " I've recovered "

  20. C.... I....

    WARNING: Almost the entire internet has butchered these incredible lyrics, which are as follows... "Retrace all my steps, which helps when I start to forget. You stick out to me like the sorest of thumbs ever seen. I craned my whole neck to see what disasters been left. I could call out her name and then wait, and see what comes crawling back in. IVORY CUPBOARD" (might as well butcher them too)

    C.... I....

    Seen them 2 times last week and you are right.

    C.... I....

    i think the last part is I've recovered? not sure. but thanks for the clarification on the lyrics. been confused for a while

    C.... I....

    ivory cupboard! my sides are in orbit. i know you posted this awhile ago, but you win the internet for me today thx

    C.... I....

    Ivory Cupboard, new band name, I call it.

  21. M.... K....

    Never has there been a song that makes me feel more than this. Ever

  22. C.... ....

    @***** you clearly don't much music

    C.... ....

    It's actually too hard for someone to much music. 

    C.... ....

    @Luis ALmazan and how

  23. J.... E....

  25. L.... R....

    Elevating vibes here in Brazilis !!

  26. K.... P....

    I love how raw the vocals are

  27. J.... A....

    This song was unreal live. Just saw them last night at the stone pony in asbury park. This song sounded 10x better live.

  28. M.... M....

    The most amazing song ever!!!!!!

  29. M.... B....

    This song has over a thousand plays on my ipod, and it still makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand.

  30. G.... ....

    Perfect perfect... Just perfect.

  31. l.... ....

    I feel like a teenager again.

    l.... ....

    Angry, confused and hormonal?

  32. J.... L....

    Why is this not their #1 song!!!

    J.... L....

  33. K.... ....

    Wwpjp have the best builds!

  34. E.... T....

    4 people who's music tastes we don't trust

  35. I.... ....

    The sadness keeps me walking.

  36. n.... m....

    this song helps me calm down whe angry, upset or just not in a good moood, so calming...

  37. S.... ....

    It would be a shame if you did not build muscle when normal people accomplish it easily using Atomic Fat Loss (check it out on Google).

  38. s.... r....

    wow





















  39. L.... ....

    goose.bumps.

  40. S.... N....

    i think its cause stupid mainstream people don't know who these guys are so no one criticizes or makes irrelevant comments. Everyone that actually knows We Were Promised Jetpacks appreciates them

  41. C.... M....

    Love how all comments here are so positive!!! Never see that anymore

  42. J.... N....

    this gets the dopamine flowing.

  43. n.... ....

    Most amazing song..I beat cancer with this song and along with Atlas Genius-Trojans I guess there's good music after all

  44. K.... ....

    Those 4 lines of lyrics carry more weight then almost every pop song today combined

  45. t.... ....

    Absolutely magical song live.

  46. S.... T....

    You know the music is good when already on 12th second you get these awesome shivers all over your body and your hair on the back of your neck and on arms are rising. :')

  47. B.... s....

    Retrace all my steps, which helps when I start to forget.
    You stick out to me, like the sorest of thumbs ever seen.
    I pray my whole day, to see what disasters we live that could call out her name And then wait. Lets see what comes crawling back in, I recover

  48. r.... ....

    So much emotion in this song. Love it

  49. D.... R....

    First Jetpacks song I heard, and still one of my favorites.

  50. S.... W....

    A 5+ minute song with only 4 lines and the power of a nuclear explosion. Well played WWPJ!

  51. l.... ....

    iam sooo glad simon cowel has never heard this.

  52. K.... B....

    i feel like crying why is it so good ?

  53. O.... ....

    Wow, great song. This one reminds me a bit of Explosions in the Sky.

  54. R.... ....

    I feel bad for people who dont know this song or band. good lord this is good music.

  55. G.... ....

    I do that too... it's such an amazing song.

  56. ..... ....

    Anyone else get goosebumps at the start?

  57. W.... R....

    I never heard of these guys but saw then live in Austin, SXSW, completely blew me away like no other live show. The lead singer is classically trained and incredible. I never witnessed a live band like this and I never make comments, I actually re-connected with my dead sister based on this song alone, insane, I know.

  58. d.... ....

    Wow! Just watched a video of these guys performing this live at Coachella. Amazing!! I had never heard of them before and now I am totally hooked. Sucks they are playing Toronto the same night as RHCP... might have to ditch on Flea and the boys, lol.

  59. J.... R....

    you know? i just saw them live last night, first time i ever heard of em and that's what i got too!

  60. M.... K....

    Screw dubstep drops, 2:57 was freaking intense

  61. h.... ....

    very explosions in the sky-esque. but we were promised jetpacks is an entire universe of their own.

  62. C.... d....

    Dude, this band is fantastic! Just discovered them today and I have to go out and buy this!

  63. C.... D....

    the good thing about this band (besides there music oviously) is that they're fairly new, and they are still making good music, so i dont feel left out or having left listening to the same thing over and over again.

  64. D.... C....

    so simple yet so orgasmic.

  65. t.... ....

    Love the cover of this album ,it says a lot... of course the music within is also awesome

  66. W.... ....

    Retrace all my steps, which helps when I start to forget.

    You said that to me, like the stories the thoughts never see.

    I pray my whole day, to see what disasters we live that could call out her name and then wait,

    let's see what comes crawling back, and I recover

  67. O.... ....

    Saw them in St.Louis this weekend. AMAZING SHOW!!! small venue and awesome acoustics! Thanks for the SHOW jetpacks!!!!

  68. {.... A....

    @rayleon656 I'll give it a shot.

    Retrace all my steps, which helps when I start to forget.

    AMAZING, best on the new album

  71. r.... ....

  72. c.... ....

    This song makes me actually think there's a little beauty left in this world.

  73. B.... J....

  74. G.... R....

    2:57 changed my life.

  75. s.... ....
