    This song means so much to me. When you hear a song that encapsulates your feelings exactly it makes you feel so much less alone. Thank you Stuart and gang.

    I was introduced to Belle and Sebastian, specifically to this song by a friend who took her own life. It gave a completely new meaning to it, in a sad, brutal sense. RIP, Arwen.

    Anthony walked to his death because he thought he'd never feelthis way again
    If he goes back to the house then things would go from bad to worse, what could he do?
    He wants to remember things exactly as he left them on that funny day
    And if there is something else beyond, he isn't scared because
    It's bound to be less boring than today
    Bound to be less boring than tomorrow
    Hilary walked to her death because she couldn't think of anything to say
    Everybody thought that she was boring, so they never listened anyway
    Nobody was really saying anything of interest, she fell asleep
    She was into S&M and bible studies
    Not everyone's cup of tea she would admit to me
    Her cup of tea, she would admit to no one
    Her cup of tea, she would admit to me
    Oh but her cup of tea, she would admit to no one
    Hilary went to the Catholic Church because she wanted information
    The vicar, or whatever, took her to one side and gave her confirmation
    Saint Theresa's calling her, the church up on the hill is looking lovely
    But it doesn't interest, the only things she wants to know is
    How and why and when and where to go
    How and why and when and where to follow
    How and why and when and where to go
    How and why and when and where to follow
    But if you are feeling sinister
    Go off and see a minister
    He'll try in vain to take away the pain of being a hopeless unbeliever
    When she got back, her spirituality was thrown into confusion
    So she got a special deal on renting
    From the man at Rediffusion
    "Look at me! I'm on TV
    It makes up for the shortcomings of being poor
    Now I'm in a million pieces", picked up for deliberation
    By the people listening at home
    By the people watching on the telly
    By the people listening at home
    By the people watching on the telly
    But if you are feeling sinister
    Go off and see a minister
    Chances are you'll probably feel better
    If you stayed and played with yourself
