Is Alex Turner the best lyricist...



Here’s your answer, in my opinion:

“Thank you for the days,
Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me.
I'm thinking of the days,
I won't forget a single day, believe me.
I bless the light,
I bless the light that lights on you believe me.
And though you're gone,
You're with me every single day, believe me.
Days I'll remember all my life,
Days when you can't see wrong from right.
You took my life,
But then I knew that very soon you'd leave me,
But it's all right,
Now I'm not frightened of this world, believe me.
I wish today could be tomorrow,
The night is dark,
It just brings sorrow anyway.
Thank you for the days,
Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me.
I'm thinking of the days,
I won't forget a single day, believe me.
Days I'll remember all my life,”
 
Yes

Don’t get me wrong though there’s boys in bands
And kids who like to scrap with pool cues in their hands
And just ’cause he’s had a coupla cans
He thinks it’s alright to act like a dickhead

And
I etched a face of a stopwatch
On the back of a raindrop
And did a swap for the sand in an hourglass
