The Twilight Sad

The Twilight Sad are an indie rock band from Kilsyth, Scotland, comprising James Graham (vocals), Andy MacFarlane (guitar), and Mark Devine (drums). The band are currently signed to Fat Cat Records and have released three full-length albums, as well as several EPs and singles. Their 2007 debut album, Fourteen Autumns & Fifteen Winters, drew widespread acclaim from critics, who noted Graham's thick Scottish accent and MacFarlane's dense sonic walls of shoegazing guitar and wheezing accordion. The Twilight Sad's notoriously loud live performances have been described as "completely ear-splitting," and the band toured for the album across Europe and the United States throughout 2007 and 2008.

Call me morbid, call me pale 
I've spent six years on your trail 
Six long years 
On your trail 

Call me morbid, call me pale 
I've spent six years on your trail 
Six full years of my life on your trail 

And if you have five seconds to spare 
Then I'll tell you the story of my life 
Sixteen, clumsy and shy 
I went to London and I 
I booked myself in at the why W.C.A. 
I said I like it here, can I stay? 
I like it here, can I stay? 
Do you have a vacancy 
For a back-scrubber?

She was left behind, and sour 
And she wrote to me, equally dour 
She said in the days when you were 
Hopelessly poor 
I just liked you more

And if you have five seconds to spare 
Then I'll tell you the story of my life 
Sixteen, clumsy and shy 
I went to London and I 
I booked myself in at the why W.C.A. 
I said I like it here, can I stay? 
I like it here, can I stay? 
And do you have a vacancy 
For a back-scrubber?

Call me morbid, call me pale 
I've spent too long on your trail 
Far too long 
Chasing your tail 
Oh

And if you have five seconds to spare 
Then I'll tell you the story of my life 
Sixteen, clumsy and shy 
That's the story of my life 
Sixteen, clumsy and shy 
The story of my life 
That's the story of my life 
That's the story of my life 
That's the story of my life 
The story of my life 
That's the story of my life 
That's the story of my life 
That's the story of my life 
That's the story of my life 
That's the story of my life 
That's the story
