Pattern Walks Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's something wrong here, nothing in the air is moving
I feel a chill and try to keep my body walking
Another person looks like he is right behind me
I'm moving forward while I keep the past around me

[Pre-Chorus]
Pattern walks, pattern walks
Pattern walks in the moon tonight and
Pattern walks, pattern walks
Pattern walks in the moon tonight and

[Verse 2]
I'm slow at times, that leaves its face for no improvement
A little piece of a lie to keep it there and moving
Another person has to be just right behind me
I'm moving forward while I keep the past around me

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]
Pattern walks, pattern walks
Pattern walks, pattern walks
Pattern walks, pattern walks
Pattern walks, pattern walks and
I don't feel bored or worried, I just feel strange
Coming up the middle of the thought that I could change
I don't feel bored or worried, I just feel strange
Coming up the middle of the thought that I could change
[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
I thought, I thought
I thought I never would remember, would remember
I thought, I thought
I thought I never would remember, would remember

[Outro] (x8)
I thought, I thought
I thought, I thought
I thought, I thought
I thought, I thought

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

What did Cloud Nothings say about "Pattern Walks"?
Genius Answer

That song originally was going to be a short one but I thought the noise in the middle was kind of cool. There’s a lot of ambient things going on in there. It was almost a response to “Wasted Days” on the last record. It ends with “I thought I would be more than this” over and over and this one ends with “I thought” over a beautiful bit of music which is an easy way to explain the way I was thinking when I was writing this record. I wasn’t as depressed as I was when I was making the last album. Before, I felt like nobody liked the band and I was doing it for three years. I was not in a good place. Now, I had more time to think about why I felt that way. It’s a positive song.
