Win Butler is definitely one of the best lyricists, IMO. He is a very educated man, even in theology which I feel brings a lot of depth to his lyrics.

If Funeral cast Arcade Fire as conquering modern-synth music hands and bewitching transcendentalists, album no. 2 didn't do much to advance anything.
On Neon Bible, lyrics crusted into friable politics and banal imagery. Lyrically, this particular song is, in the main, a pensive mosaic of hackneyed sentiment and indolent wording.
Of course, this song, like the other nifty tracks on the album, has the strings and Butler of course can wail. The way this song resolves - straight dope.
arcade fire + radiohead = <3
