About This Track

‘Mind Over Time’ by Interpol is an alternative track from the album ‘Our Love to Admire’, released in 2007. The lyrics sketch an insistence on staying alert and responsive, returning to the idea of being up “either way”. Elsewhere, thought is personified as a street and the body as a kind of shelter, with the speaker lying awake while something is awaited. The verses also lean into a poised, almost ceremonial patience, as if the mind’s resolve is meant to outlast whatever timing insists upon.

"Mind Over Time" is a single by Interpol, from the album Our Love to Admire, released 8th July 2007. The track is 4:49 long. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 15 articles about Interpol.

Lyrics

Mind Over Time

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]

I will still be up by fall

I'll still be up by fall either way

Still be up by fall

I'll be still to hear the call either way

[Verse 2]

Street of thought, in all your bones

Hold your place and save your throne

Lie awake supine and golden

Wait for grace, it's time

[Chorus]

Mind over time

Mind over time

[Verse 3]

Sleight of fate and borrowed clothes

Songs of places no one knows

Draped in lace we all lean over

To greet the great, it's time

[Chorus]

Mind over time

Mind over time

[Interlude]

It's Paul, hey, it's been really good to see you, man

Uh, I don't know if I've been away

I've been away or you've, you've been away

But you didn't stay long

So I just wanted to tell you that it was good to see you

You know? (Good to see you, you know?)

And, and it's a shame it didn't work out

But uh, if we could've gotten together for that little recording

It might've been a good experience

But eh, maybe after the holidays

Listen, you can call me anytime, please

If you're sure you're not too busy

If you ever need to, just call me, right?

Bye, hope your holidays go well

[Verse 4]

Street of thought, in all your bones

Hold your place and save your throne

Lie awake supine and golden

Greet the great, it's time

[Chorus]

Mind over time

Mind over time

It's mind over time

It's your mind over time

[Instrumental Outro]
