Emo-band Death Cab for Cutie will be releasing their new album (their 7th?), Narrow Stairs, on May 13, 2008.

The first single off the album, I Will Possess Your Heart, runs at a full 8:30 minutes. Check out the video below for the radio edit version. Or here, for the full length.

Update 17 June 2008: Alas, the once rumoured DCFC stop-by gig in Malaysia has been squashed. How about bringing in Weezer instead? Heard Rivers Coumo is an Asian-loving chap. Perhaps the organizers can persuade him by offering 300 Asian groupies, no?

I Will Possess Your Heart
by Death Cab for Cutie
from Narrow Stairs (2008)

How I wish you could see the potential
The potential of you and me
It’s like a book elegantly bound
But in a language that you can’t read - just yet

You gotta spend some time, love
you gotta spend some time with me
And I know that you’ll find, love
I will possess your heart

There are days when outside your window
I see my reflection as I slowly pass
And I long for this mirrored perspective
When we’ll be lovers, lovers at last

You gotta spend some time, love
you gotta spend some time with me
And I know that you’ll find, love
I will possess your heart

I will possess your heart
I will possess your heart

You reject my advances and desperate pleas
I won’t let you, let me down so easily, so easily

You gotta spend some time, love
you gotta spend some time with me
And I know that you’ll find, love
I will possess your heart

I will possess your heart
I will possess your heart
