I was gripped with a bitter fear Worried the one thing that I loved Back when I was just a kid Might now never be enough That the body I was in Might belong to someone else Someone kinder, someone surer, someone innocent Young and beautiful Someone purer That's no one I know I was scratching at my skin Hoping changes would begin But what laid beneath was blood Well of course What the hell was I thinking of? Won't you take me down to the creek? Wash away our sins and sleep I feel so tired As though I might not wake at all on the other side That's no way to go That's no way to go That's no way to go Oh my dear one Bathe me in your glow Cut out my lonely heart And bury it in the snow Nothing really means nothing Is the saddest thing I know So deliver me from sin And give me rock and roll Give me rock and roll And in the morning there'll be hope And in the morning there'll be light And if I sleep and dream up a system A solution to fend off perils of the night Come on in, I'll be born again Born again as someone else Someone kinder, someone surer, someone beautiful Someone purer And when I am you'll know When I am you'll know When I am you'll know When I am you'll know Oh almighty one The devil knows my name Will salvation come To wash away my pain? For I was once a kid With a pure and innocent soul So deliver me from sin And give me rock and roll Give me rock and roll Give me rock and roll And a pure and innocent soul And a pure and innocent soul Give me rock and roll Give me rock and roll And a pure and innocent soul And a pure and innocent soul And a pure and innocent soul And a pure and innocent soul Soul And a pure and innocent soul And a pure and innocent soul And a pure and innocent soul
They were playing this song everyday at my job and I was struggling to shazam it, until I realised they have a playlist saved. This went for some good 6 months.
They opened for Mumford and Sons in San Bernardino last night. I have never heard of them prior. They did an AMAZING performance. Look forward to seeing them on their own tour.
loving this song!!!!!!!!!! love the new album, and the best of all they didn`t change their sound and instead they made something new and different. greetings from Argentina!!!!!!!
Will miss you Kai like I still miss Henry...thank you for being a band that has never yet disappeared up its own arse end...I can't say that about many bands from 2005ish.
What an extraordinarily excellent tune from such an extremely underrated band! Cannot wait to see this live at Brixton! Would like to see what t-shirts they have to support Radlands! Bet they are sick!
2020. my undying love for Mystery Jets brought me here.
Such a great band. If you have recommendations of similar bands that are still active, let me know.

2023 my sister sent me
Odd how that rhymes
mid 2024 here
The lady at the beginning is my old Biology teacher! Go Mrs Crush!
I was gripped with a bitter fear
Worried the one thing that I loved
Back when I was just a kid
Might now never be enough
That the body I was in
Might belong to someone else
Someone kinder, someone surer, someone innocent
Young and beautiful
Someone purer
That's no one I know
I was scratching at my skin
Hoping changes would begin
But what laid beneath was blood
Well of course
What the hell was I thinking of?
Won't you take me down to the creek?
Wash away our sins and sleep
I feel so tired
As though I might not wake at all on the other side
That's no way to go
That's no way to go
That's no way to go
Oh my dear one
Bathe me in your glow
Cut out my lonely heart
And bury it in the snow
Nothing really means nothing
Is the saddest thing I know
So deliver me from sin
And give me rock and roll
Give me rock and roll
And in the morning there'll be hope
And in the morning there'll be light
And if I sleep and dream up a system
A solution to fend off perils of the night
Come on in, I'll be born again
Born again as someone else
Someone kinder, someone surer, someone beautiful
Someone purer
And when I am you'll know
When I am you'll know
When I am you'll know
When I am you'll know
Oh almighty one
The devil knows my name
Will salvation come
To wash away my pain?
For I was once a kid
With a pure and innocent soul
So deliver me from sin
And give me rock and roll
Give me rock and roll
Give me rock and roll
And a pure and innocent soul
And a pure and innocent soul
Give me rock and roll
Give me rock and roll
And a pure and innocent soul
And a pure and innocent soul
And a pure and innocent soul
And a pure and innocent soul
Soul
And a pure and innocent soul
And a pure and innocent soul
And a pure and innocent soul
goosebumps everywhere, this song is a part of my life
Come back and listen again 😸
Love this song
They were playing this song everyday at my job and I was struggling to shazam it, until I realised they have a playlist saved. This went for some good 6 months.
I very rarely love a song on the first listen but this was one of those times. Great tune, lyrics and vid. I will be checking out Radlands for sure.
So glad, I went to see Mumford & Sons. Discovered this amazing band.
Starving In Suburbia brought me here :)
Same
Someone kinder, someone surer, Someone innocent, young and beautiful, Someone purer
That's no one I know...
i made a top 200 songs from 1950 too 2015 and this was number 176
176? Way too low, this song is a masterpiece 😍
give me rock & roll.. and a pure and innocent soul.
Oh my god! This is THEIR YEAR! This single is going to get them the recognition they deserve I just know it!! About damn time!
They opened for Mumford and Sons in San Bernardino last night. I have never heard of them prior. They did an AMAZING performance. Look forward to seeing them on their own tour.
Starving in suburbia got me here

i saw them before the concert of mumford and sons and they were great!
How can somebody that collects toys call something lame? Music that takes a passion and feeling and a talent to create?
Wow this really adds more to the song... love it.
