Chvrches Lyrics

Asking For A Friend lyrics - Chvrches

I don't want to say that I'm afraid to die

I'm no good at goodbyes, I can't apologise

And if I don't stop now will it follow me down?

I guess I have to try, it's the art of getting by

'Cause I sunk some ships with selfish lips

And it all came back to me

I was terrified, I never told them why

And the songs I wrote 'bout hearts I broke

Would never come for free

I cheated and I lied but I meant it when I cried

So what do you say when you lose your way?

The past is in the past, it isn't meant to last

But if I can't let go, will you carry me home?

Can we celebrate the end? I'm asking for a friend

'Cause I filled my bed with my regrets

But it hasn't killed me yet

None of it mattered, none of it mattered

And the mess we made on Fridays

Gave me Sundays on my knees

But you still matter, you still matter

You still matter

I don't want to say that I'm afraid to die

The past is in the past, t isn't meant to last

But if I can't let go, will you carry me home?

Can we celebrate the end? I'm asking for a friend

Home

Can we go?

Home

Can we go?

Home

Can we go?

Home

Can we go?

He Said She Said lyrics - Chvrches

He said, "You bore me to death"

"I know you heard me the first time" and

"Be sad, but don't be depressed"

Just think it over, over and

He said, "It's all in your head"

"But keep an ear to the grapevine" and

"Get drunk, but don't be a mess"

Keep thinkin' over, over

I try

But it's hard to hit rewind

When I feel like

I feel like I'm losin' my mind

(Feel like I'm losin' my mind)

Feel like I'm losin' my mind

(Feel like I'm losin' my mind)

Over and over, I

Feel like I'm losin' my mind

(Feel like I'm losin' my mind)

Feel like I'm losin' my mind

Over and over, I try

Ooh, ooh, ooh

He said, "You need to be fed"

"But keep an eye on your waistline" and

"Look good, but don't be obsessed"

Keep thinkin' over, over

I try

But it's hard to know what's right

When I feel like I'm borrowin' all of my time

And it's hard to hit rewind

When I feel like

I feel like I'm losin' my mind

(Feel like I'm losin' my mind)

Feel like I'm losin' my mind

(Feel like I'm losin' my mind)

Over and over, I

Feel like I'm losin' my mind

(Feel like I'm losin' my mind)

Feel like I'm losin' my mind

Over and over, I

(Feel like I'm losin' my mind)

Feel like I'm losin' my mind

(Feel like I'm losin' my mind)

Over and over, I

Feel like I'm losin' my mind

(Feel like I'm losin' my mind)

Feel like I'm losin' my mind

Over and over

I try

California lyrics - Chvrches

Waste a month, waste a year

Waste the time you could've been here

Count the debt, count the tears

Count the truths and all of my fears

I didn't want to be cynical

Passing place for the soul

You were never predictable

Now I need to let it go

Found the song, played it back

Heard your voice under the feedback

Found a tape that was blank

Saw your face fading into black

I know love is delusional

And I hate when I'm wrong

Yours was never conditional

And now I need to get it gone

No one ever warns ya

You'll die in California

Falling in a dream, you let, let go

No one ever seems to say, say so

No one ever tells ya

There's freedom in the failure

Dying in a dream feels like home

No one ever seems to say, say so

Close my eyes, close my heart

Close the book I never meant to start

Say your name in the dark

No one said it would be this hard

I didn't go to the funeral

Heard you cry on the phone

Your voice was so beautiful

And now I need to let it go

No one ever warns ya

You'll die in California

Falling in a dream, you let, let go

No one ever seems to say, say so

No one ever tells ya

There's freedom in the failure

Dying in a dream feels like home

No one ever seems to say, say so

God bless this mess that we made ourselves

Pull me into the screen at the end and

God bless this mess that we made for ourselves

Pull me into the screen at the end

To the screen at the end

Violent Delights lyrics - Chvrches

Had a dream your father died

I couldn't scream

I couldn't cry

The second night, I dreamt you drowned

You couldn't fight

You were not found

These violent delights

Keep creeping into my nights

And they're reading my rites

And I'll never sleep alone again

And these violent delights

Keep bleeding into the light

And I'll never be right

But they'll never sleep alone again when I'm gone

When I'm gone

A photograph will steal your soul

An epitaph won't make you whole

If I disappear, they'll say I killed myself

I never feared for my own health

These violent delights

Keep creeping into my nights

And they're reading my rites

And I'll never sleep alone again

And these violent delights

Keep bleeding into the light

And I'll never be right

But they'll never sleep alone again when I'm gone

When I'm gone

I don't want to see it

I don't want to sleep alone, no

I don't want to see it

Never sleep alone again, no

I don't want to see it

I don't want to sleep alone, no

I don't want to see it

Never sleep alone again when I'm gone

These violent delights

Keep creeping into my nights

And they're reading my rites

And I'll never sleep alone again

And these violent delights

Keep bleeding into the light

And I'll never be right

But they'll never sleep alone again when I'm gone

When I'm gone

Alone again when I'm gone

When I'm gone

How Not To Drown lyrics - Chvrches (feat. Robert Smith)

I'm writing a book on how to stay conscious when you drown

And if the words float up to the surface

I'll keep them down

This is the first time I know

I don't want the crown

You can take it now

You promised the world and brought me it hanging from a string

Stuck it in my mouth, into my throat

Told me to sing

That was the first time I knew

You can't kill the king

And those who kiss the ring

Tell me how

It's better when the sun goes down

We will never escape this town

I wasn't scared when he caught me

Look what it taught me

Tell me how

It's better if I make no sound

I will never escape these doubts

I wasn't dead when they found me

Watch as they pull me down

I'm writing a chapter on what to do after they dig you up

On what to do after you grew to hate what you used to love

That was the first time I knew

They were out for blood

And they would have your guts

Tell me how

It's better when the sun goes down

We will never escape this town

I wasn't scared when he caught me

Look what it taught me

Tell me how

It's better if I make no sound

I will never escape these doubts

I wasn't dead when they found me

Watch as they pull me down

Pulling me down

Dead when they found me

Watch as they pull me down

Pulling me down

Dead when they found me

Watch as they pull me down

I'm writing a book on how to stay conscious when you drown

And if the words float up to the surface

I'll keep them down

This is the first time I know

I don't want the crown

You can take it now

Take it now

Final Girl lyrics - Chvrches

Swallowing the seeds of sins we sewed into the ground

Keeping secrets until everything became a bit too loud

I could wash it down

I could drown it out

By filling up the silence with an organ sound

And by writing sentences I used to think were quite profound

And it feels like the weight is too much to carry

I should quit, maybe go get married

Only time will tell

And I wonder if I should've changed my accent

Tried to make myself more attractive

Only time will tell

In the final cut

In the final scene

There's a final girl

And you know that she should be screaming

Telling all the tales took time that I just do not have

Sifting further through the wreckage, I think you just have to laugh

Try to take it back

As it turns to black

Don't want to find your daughter in a body bag

So I need to get out now while most of me is still intact

And it feels like the weight is too much to carry

I should quit, maybe go get married

Only time will tell

And I wonder if I should've changed my accent

Tried to make myself more attractive

Only time will tell

In the final cut

In the final scene

There's a final girl

Does she look like me?

In the final cut

In the final scene

There's a final girl

And you know that she should be screaming now

Good Girls lyrics - Chvrches

Killing your idols is a chore

And it's such a fucking bore

'Cause I don't need them anymore

Maybe if you just got some guts

We'd kill 'em with a thousand cuts

And say we did it out of love

So save your breath

Give a little of what you have left

Do they know something I don't?

Is it easier when you don't have to count to ten?

When you don't have to pretend?

I want to know that feeling

Is it easier when you don't have to start again?

When you don't want to make amends?

I want to know that feeling

Good girls don't cry

And good girls don't lie

And good girls justify but I don't

Good girls don't die

And good girls stay alive

And good girls satisfy but I won't

They tell me I'm hellbent on revenge

I cut my teeth on weaker men

I won't apologize again

And

I never had a taste for liars

Or the uniquely uninspired

'Cause I don't need to be desired

Is it easier when you don't have to count to ten?

When you don't have to pretend?

I want to know that feeling

Is it easier when you don't have to start again

When you don't want to make amends?

I want to know that feeling

Good girls don't cry

And good girls don't lie

And good girls justify but I don't

Good girls don't die

And good girls stay alive

And good girls satisfy but I won't

No, I won't

Killing your idols is a chore

And it's such a fucking bore

But we don't need them anymore

We don't need them anymore

Lullabies lyrics - Chvrches

I've lost my appetite

Drinking the pesticide

Thinking that it's not a suicide if we act polite

Jesus Christ

I'm getting tired of the alibis

All the excuses and reasons why build inside my mind

No reply

I wish that I'd known ahead of time

And I wish I had been more kind

I wish, I...

Paralysed and spinning backwards

Lullabies don't comfort me

Televise the great disaster

We're better off inside of the screen

I'm terrified of falling faster

Lullabies don't comfort me

So televise the great disaster

We're better off inside of the screen sometimes

I'm lying on the floor

What are we waiting for?

I'm getting tired of trying so hard to be adored

Close the door

Wish I'd reached out to my mother more

Wish that I hadn't kept the score

I wish, I...

Paralysed and spinning backwards

Lullabies don't comfort me

Televise the great disaster

We're better off inside of the screen

I'm terrified of falling faster

Lullabies don't comfort me

So televise the great disaster

We're better off inside of the screen sometimes

Nightmares lyrics - Chvrches

I get the last word only because I write on the walls in my head

Maybe some things are better unsaid

To be left on the sheets of your bed

Can I forgive if I forget

All my mistakes and my regrets?

If all of this is for the best?

I've been singing that song again

Another ballad that won't make amends

It's been giving me nightmares again

And they don't end

I've been singing along again

Another poem designed for revenge

Now I'm living the nightmare again

And it won't end

Pity the actor canning the laughter

I know I waited too long

I played so dumb

I was under the thumb

A conclusion far too foregone

Can I forgive if I forget

All my mistakes and my regrets?

If all of this is for the best?

I've been singing that song again

Another ballad that won't make amends

It's been giving me nightmares again

And they don't end

I've been singing along again

Another poem designed for revenge

Now I'm living the nightmare again

And it won't end

For, for, forgiving

For, for, forgetting

For, for, forgiving

For, for, forgetting

It might have looked like love but it tasted a lot like blood

What is it like to be the apple of your own eye?

Always loved

Always seen

Always gratified

Always heard

Always safe

Always satisfied

An ugly song came from a Ballad For A Friend

If beauty is in the eye of the beholder, it never ends

I was no sweet dream but I was never a nightmare

I'm glad that we can all now stop pretending that you cared

I was no sweet dream but I was never a nightmare

I love it when you talk about it to people who weren't there

The arrogance and narcissism laid bare

I was no sweet dream but I was never a nightmare

I've been singing that song again

Another ballad that won't make amends

It's been giving me nightmares again

And they don't end

I've been singing along again

Another poem designed for revenge

Now I'm living the nightmare again

And it won't end

For, for, forgiving

For, for, forgetting

For, for, forgiving

For, for, forgetting

For, for, forgiving

For, for, forgetting

For, for, forgiving

For, for, forgetting

Better If You Don't lyrics - Chvrches

Drinking to the things I can't take back

Thinking of the friends and faith I lack

And no one broke my heart quite like that man

It's better if you don't care but if you do

I won't follow you again

TV's on but facing at the wall

Can they tell I don't like me at all?

I'm never as alone as I am back home

Pulling every thread

Seemed like a thing to do

Now I can't give it back

My favourite kind of blue

It's better if I don't dwell but if I do

I won't call on you again

Tinseltown was always in the rain

I've been gone and notice every change

And some of them are not our friends

And some of them are still our friends but dead

It's better if I don't think too much of you

I've been on my own

So I should see it through

I mumble when I speak

But I mean it when I do

I carry what I keep

I don't miss a lot of you

I drink and I think too much

I should quit one of the two

But I won't wish for luck

And I won't bother you

It's better if you don't care but if you do

I won't follow you again

Killer lyrics - Chvrches

I lost myself

My mental health

Yeah

On a broken carousel

Spun down to hell

How far we fell

Maybe just as well

The stones we throw

They told me so

Yeah

It was death by stereo

When they dealt the final blow

Nowhere to go

I turned into a killer

I'm insane

I'll cry you a river

Down the drain

Are you entertained?

No one to call

In my downfall

Yeah

In the valley of the dolls

I was climbing up the walls

No light at all

I turned into a killer

I'm insane

I'll cry you a river

Down the drain

I turned into a killer

Played the game

Don't look in the mirror

Fear no pain

Are you entertained?

I turned into a killer

I'm insane

I'll cry you a river

Down the drain

Are you entertained?

Screaming lyrics - Chvrches

Am I the deer?

Am I the headlights?

I know that I can't slow down

Everything fractures in the light

And I stand by watching it turn

And we used to laugh

At the broken glass

I should probably paper over all the cracks

Took a photograph

Of the aftermath

I should probably look less fondly on the past

Silent screaming

At the ceiling

Wondering when I lost heart

And time's been stealing

All my dreams and

I no longer look the part

And we used to laugh

At the broken glass

I should probably paper over all the cracks

Took a photograph

Of the aftermath

I should probably look less fondly on the past

Am I the butcher?

Am I the knife

If I don't know what all this is for?

I used to read myself to death

But I don't see the point anymore

Silent screaming

At the ceiling

Wondering when I lost heart

And time's been stealing

All my dreams and

I no longer look the part

And we used to laugh

At the broken glass

I should probably paper over all the cracks

Took a photograph

Of the aftermath

I should probably look less fondly on the past

On the past

Am I the deer?

Am I the headlights?

I know that I can't slow down

Bitter End lyrics - Chvrches

At twenty-four

I fell into the trap door

Threw a man overboard

As I swam for the shore

At twenty-five

I noticed red in my skies

Made a bed for his lies

In the whites of my eyes

I was naïve

It got harder to breathe

Still I don't let them see

That there's blood on my knees

All that I want

Is to hear that one song

When the noise is all gone

I'll be singing along

Teach me the sound that can take me away

Play it again and again until I find rapture

It never really ends

Teach me the sound that can take me away

Play it again and again until I find rapture

Until the bitter end

At twenty-nine

I didn't see all the signs

So I hung on the line

Till I lost my spine

I prayed to God

I could curb the black dog

Oh, the days were so long

With the oxygen gone

Teach me the sound that can take me away

Play it again and again until I find rapture

It never really ends

Teach me the sound that can take me away

Play it again and again until I find rapture

Until the bitter end

Rapture

Ever after

In the bitter end

Guess that I learned

From every bridge that I burned

That your love should be earned

And the world will still turn

All that I want

Is to hear that one song

When the noise is all gone

I'll be singing along

Teach me the sound that can take me away

Play it again and again until I find rapture

It never really ends

Teach me the sound that can take me away

Play it again and again until I find rapture

Until the bitter end

Rapture

Ever after

In the bitter end

Finding rapture

Rapture

Ever after

In the bitter end

Finding rapture

Ever after

Finding rapture

I need a rapture

Graffiti lyrics - Chvrches

I'm writing to ask you; did you achieve all you wanted to do?

Before we were dragged up, something was different and nothing was new

How did you see me?

We didn't know what we wanted to be

When did we move on?

I didn't feel it, nobody told me

Time to kill

Was always an illusion

Time stood still

And now we never will, never will

We wrote our names along the bathroom walls

Graffitiing our hearts across the stalls

I've been waiting for my whole life to grow old

And now we never will, never will

Standing in streetlights, we didn't know wrong, didn't know right

Making a mess and running in circles, getting in fights

We were just kids then, we didn't know how and didn't know when

Taking our chances, calling it off and starting again

Time to kill

Was always an illusion

Time stood still

And now we never will, never will

We wrote our names along the bathroom walls

Graffitiing our hearts across the stalls

I've been waiting for my whole life to grow old

And now we never will, never will

Never will

We wrote our names along the bathroom walls

Graffitiing our hearts across the stalls

I've been waiting for my whole life to grow old

And now we never will, never will

Get Out lyrics - Chvrches

Talked ourselves to death

Never saying what I wanted

Saying what I needed

I pushed you to the edge

Never knowing what I wanted

Knowing what I needed you to say

Reflections you used to see

Never look alike to me

Get out, get out

Get, get, get out

Get, get, get out of here

Can we get out, get out

Get, get, get out

Get, get, get out of here?

Good intentions never good enough

Can we get out, get out

Get, get, get out

Get, get, get out of here?

Going out my mind

Never getting what I wanted

Getting what I needed

I left myself behind

Never knowing what I wanted

Knowing what I needed you to do

Reflections you used to see

Never look alike to me

Get out, get out

Get, get, get out

Get, get, get out of here

Can we get out, get out

Get, get, get out

Get, get, get out of here?

Good intentions never good enough

Can we get out, get out

Get, get, get out

Get, get, get out of here?

So do you want to turn it around?

And do you want to show me how?

You are a kaleidoscope

So do you want to turn it around?

And do you want to show me how?

You are a kaleidoscope

Get out, get out

Get, get, get out

Get, get, get out of here

Can we get out, get out

Get, get, get out

Get, get, get out of here?

Good intentions never good enough

Can we get out, get out

Get, get, get out

Get, get, get out of here?

So do you want to turn it around?

And do you want to show me how?

You are a kaleidoscope

So do you want to turn it around?

And do you want to show me how?

You are a kaleidoscope

Deliverance lyrics - Chvrches

Careful when you're swimmin' in the holy water

Drowning in your own beliefs

Careful when you're standing at a broken altar

Asking if we feel relief

Careful when you're looking for a true confession

Mirror what you wanna see

Careful when you're tellin' us about obsessions

Sayin' that we're never free

You better hold on, hold on, hold on

You better hold on to what you love

You better give up, give up, give up

You better give up on givin' up

Is it deliver-iver-iverance

If you can never, never change?

Is it deliver-iver-iverance

If you hurt me in exchange?

Trust me when I tell you 'bout my own convictions

Made my mind up long ago

Trust me when I tell you it's a contradiction

Wishin' that I didn't know

Trust me that I struggle with all your destruction

Screamin' that I told you so

Trust me when I talk about the disillusion

Building up and letting go

You better hold on, hold on, hold

You better hold on to what you love

You better give up, give up, give up

You better give up on givin' up

Is it deliver-iver-iverance

If you can never, never change?

Is it deliver-iver-iverance

If you hurt me in exchange?

Look in my eyes when you say it, say it

Look in my eyes like you mean it, mean it

Look in my eyes when you say it, say it

Look in my eyes like you mean it

Is it deliver-iver-iverance

If you can never, never change?

Is it deliver-iver-iverance

If you hurt me in exchange?

Is it deliver-iver-iverance

Look in my eyes when you say it, say it

If you can never, never change

Look in my eyes like you mean it, mean it

Is it deliver-iver-iverance

Look in my eyes when you say it, say it

If you hurt me in exchange

Look in my eyes like you mean it, mean it, mean it

Like you mean it

My Enemy lyrics - Chvrches (feat. Matt Berninger)

[Matt Berninger:]

I got no more time to hear what you think about me

Because all your words are so cold, so callous, so clean

In the moment you could be honest, you could wake up, up

But your jealousy is more blind than love

[Lauren Mayberry:]

And you could be my enemy

And you could be my judge

If you could start remembering all the time that you used up

And you could be my remedy

If you could show me love

If I could stop remembering all the time that you used up

[Matt Berninger:]

I got no more time to hear who you think we should blame

Because all your words are so vile, so vicious, so vain

In the end, we did all the damage that you could want, want

But the emptiness will go on and on

[Lauren Mayberry:]

And you could be my enemy

And you could be my judge

If you could start remembering all the time that you used up

And you could be my remedy

If you could show me love

If I could stop remembering all the time that you used up

[Matt Berninger & Lauren Mayberry:]

And you could be my enemy

And you could be my judge

If you could start remembering all the time that you used up

And you could be my remedy

If you could show me love

If I could stop remembering all the time that you used up

Forever lyrics - Chvrches

Savour the taste

Savour the pain

I don't expect you to release me

Jumping the gun

Holding my tongue

I'd never ask you to forgive me

And you will never see my side

And I will always think I'm right

But I always regret the night

I told you I would hate you 'til forever

Forever, forever, forever

Forever, forever, forever, forever

I told you I would hate you 'til forever

Forever, forever, forever (oh, oh)

Forever, forever, forever, forever (oh, oh)

Forever, forever, forever, forever

I told you I would hate you 'til forever

Playing the part

Playing the game

I don't expect you to believe me

Missing the mark

We tear it apart

I'd never ask you why you need me

And you will never see my side

And I will always think I'm right

But I always regret the night

I told you I would hate you 'til forever

Forever, forever, forever

Forever, forever, forever, forever

I told you I would hate you 'til forever

Forever, forever, forever (oh, oh)

Forever, forever, forever, forever (oh, oh)

Forever, forever, forever, forever

I told you I would hate you 'til forever

What else should I say?

What else could I do?

Maybe it's too much for you

What else should I say?

What else could I do?

Maybe I am just too much for you

Forever, forever, forever

Forever, forever, forever, forever

I told you I would hate you 'til forever

Forever, forever, forever (oh, oh)

Forever, forever, forever, forever (oh, oh)

Forever, forever, forever, forever

I told you I would hate you 'til forever

Never Say Die lyrics - Chvrches

Wasn't it gonna be fun and wasn't it gonna be new?

Wasn't it gonna be different and wasn't it gonna be true?

Didn't you say that? Didn't you say that?

Weren't you gonna be sorry and weren't you gonna be pure?

Weren't we gonna be honest and weren't we gonna be more?

Didn't you say that? Didn't you say that?

All you want is to play at playing god

But I'm falling in, I'm falling out

All you need is to play at playing god

And I'm falling in, I'm falling out

Never, never, never, ever

Never, ever, ever say die

(Didn't you say that? Didn't you say that?)

Never, never, never, ever

Never, ever, ever say die

(Didn't you say that? Didn't you say that?)

Never, never, never, ever

Never, ever, ever stop

(Didn't you say that? Didn't you say that?)

Never, never, never, ever

Never, ever, ever say die

(Didn't you say that? Didn't you say that?)

Weren't you trying forgiveness and weren't you trying to stay?

Weren't you trying to look up and weren't you trying to pray?

Didn't you say that? Didn't you say that?

All you want is to play at playing god

But I'm falling in, I'm falling out

All you need is to play at playing god

And I'm falling in, I'm falling out

Never, never, never, ever

Never, ever, ever say die

(Didn't you say that? Didn't you say that?)

Never, never, never, ever

Never, ever, ever say die

(Didn't you say that? Didn't you say that?)

Never, never, never, ever

Never, ever, ever stop

(Didn't you say that? Didn't you say that?)

Never, never, never, ever

Never, ever, ever say die

(Didn't you say that? Didn't you say that?)

(Didn't you say that? Didn't you say that?)...

Miracle lyrics - Chvrches

Ask me no questions, I will tell you no lies

Careful what you wish for

We're looking for angels in the darkest of skies

Saying that we wanted more

I feel like I'm falling, but I'm trying to fly

Where does all the good go?

We're looking for answers in the highest of highs

But will we ever, ever know?

And I need you to know I'm not asking for a miracle

But if love is enough, could you let it show?

If you feel it could you let me know?

(Oh, oh) If you feel it could you let me know?

(Oh, oh) I'm not asking for a miracle

Ask for forever when the end is in sight

Showing what you want to

We're looking for the light in an ocean of night

But will we ever see it through?

And I need you to know I'm not asking for a miracle

But if love is enough, could you let it show?

If you feel it could you let me know?

(Oh, oh) If you feel it could you let me know?

(Oh, oh) I'm not asking for a miracle

Ask me no questions, I will tell you no lies

I'm not asking for a miracle

We're looking for angels in the darkest of skies

I'm not asking for a miracle (I'm not asking for a miracle)

(I'm not asking for a miracle)

I'm not asking for a miracle

If you feel it could you let me know?

Ask me no questions, I will tell you no lies

I'm not asking for a miracle

We're looking for angels in the darkest of skies

I'm not asking for a miracle (I'm not asking for a miracle)

(I'm not asking for a miracle)

Ask me no questions, I will tell you no lies

I'm not asking for a miracle

We're looking for angels in the darkest of skies

I'm not asking for a miracle (I'm not asking for a miracle)

(I'm not asking for a miracle)

Graves lyrics - Chvrches

Do you really believe that you can never be sure?

They're leaving bodies in stairwells

Washing up on the shore

Do you really expect us to care what you're waiting for?

When you're high in your castle, keeping an eye on the door

The door, the door

If I only see what I can see

I know it isn't there

And if only need what I can keep

I know it isn't fair

Oh, baby

You can look away

While they're dancing on our graves

But I will stop at nothing

Oh, I will stop at nothing

And you can look away

While they're dancing on our graves

But I will stop at nothing

No, I will stop at nothing now

Do you really believe that you are one of a kind?

If you don't have a heart I can offer you mine

Do you really expect that you will always be fine?

When you're high on your throne

And never toeing the line, the line, the line

If I only see what I can see

I know it isn't there

And if only need what I can keep

I know it isn't fair

Oh, baby

You can look away

While they're dancing on our graves

But I will stop at nothing

Oh, I will stop at nothing

And you can look away

While they're dancing on our graves

But I will stop at nothing

No, I will stop at nothing now

Lookin' away, you're lookin' away

From all that we've done

Lookin' away, you're lookin' away

From all that we've done

Oh, baby

You can look away

While they're dancing on our graves

But I will stop at nothing

Oh, I will stop at nothing

And you can look away

While they're dancing on our graves

But I will stop at nothing

No, I will stop at nothing now

Lookin' away, you're lookin' away

From all that we've done

Lookin' away, you're lookin' away

From all that we've done

Lookin' away, you're lookin' away

From all that we've done

Heaven/Hell lyrics - Chvrches

Am I real if you can see right through me?

If I'm in a magazine

Do you believe it? Do you believe?

Am I real if I'm a broken record?

Selling you what you don't need

Do you believe it?

I don't

Do you ever wonder what we learned?

We can raise our glasses, dancing on the ashes as it burns

Have you reached the point of no return?

We can raise our glasses, dancing on the ashes as it burns

Is this heaven or is this hell?

Through a silver screen, you're sayin' what you mean

But I can't tell

Is this heaven or is this hell?

If none of this is real, then show me what you feel

'Cause I can't tell

Is it right if I'm a perfect actress?

Playin' the princess in distress

Is it enough, yeah? Is it enough?

Is it alright if I save myself and if I clean up my own mess

Is it enough, yeah? Is it enough?

Is it enough, yeah?

'Cause I've had enough

Do you ever wonder what we learned?

We can raise our glasses, dancing on the ashes as it burns

Have you reached the point of no return?

We can raise our glasses, dancing on the ashes as it burns

Is this heaven or is this hell?

Through a silver screen, you're sayin' what you mean

But I can't tell

Is this heaven or is this hell?

If none of this is real, then show me what you feel

'Cause I can't tell

Is this heaven or is this hell?

Through a silver screen, you're sayin' what you mean

But I can't tell

Is this heaven or is this hell?

If none of this is real, then show me what you feel

'Cause I can't tell

God's Plan lyrics - Chvrches

You belong with me

I'm tracing a line

I'm tracing the lines of your hand

You collapse in threads

Show me inside

You're wasted in white, like dirt sand

You confide in me

Ashamed in the light

Shaped and defined by god's plan

You belong to me

You're crossing a line

You're cold and confined

You're no friend

I'll wait for a sign

I'm tracing the lines of your hand

Of your hand

What's yours can be mine

I'm tracing the lines of your hand

Of your hand

You belong with me

And tonight

At least we can die

In silence

Is it worth it now?

Tell me, is it worth it now?

Is it worth it now?

Really Gone lyrics - Chvrches

I can never tell what you want

Even with time, you'll never learn to move on

I'm trying my best to lift you up, to repair

But when I stop, you never seem to stay there

And I'm holding on, I'm holding on

I'll wait until you're really gone

And try to find another way

But I can not stay

I can do no right for doing wrong

I'll swallow my pride, I only want to belong

I'm trying my best to toughen up, for these days

And maybe I'll find another time for this place

And I'm holding on, I'm holding on

I'll wait until you're really gone

And try to find another way

But I can not stay

I'll try to find another way

But I can not stay

Wonderland lyrics - Chvrches

I am talkin' in my sleep

Hidin' inside my dreams

Fighting inside my head

Scarin' myself to death

We live in a wonderland

Like blood isn't on our hands

When will it be enough?

When will I say I

Knew we had to get away

From the storm

Can't live forever

With my head in the clouds

Can't predict the weather

With my feet on the ground

You tell me that we'll be alright

But I don't know if you're right

I can't live forever

With my head and my heart in the clouds

I am countin' every sheep

But these rabbit holes run deep

Tryin' to be so right

Desperate to start a fight

All of this pointless talk

Why can't I turn it off?

When will it all just stop?

When will I say I

Knew we had to get away

All along

Can't live forever

With my head in the clouds

Can't predict the weather

With my feet on the ground

You tell me that we'll be alright

But I don't know if you're right

I can't live forever

With my head and my heart in the clouds

Can't live forever

With my head in the clouds

Can't predict the weather

With my feet on the ground

You tell me that we'll be alright

But I don't know if you're right

I can't live forever

With my head and my heart in the clouds

Bury It (Remix) lyrics - Chvrches (feat. Hayley Williams of Paramore)

[Lauren Mayberry:]

Cover up, cover up

Cover up that you're ruthless

Nobody, nobody

Nobody's ever gonna notice

And I am catching up

And I am seeing red

How about I prove I'm right

And raise it overhead?

I never promised you

Anything I couldn't do

We try to bury it and rise above

Bury it and rise above you, you

You never promised me

You would see it differently

Bury it and rise above

Bury it and rise above you, you

[Both:]

We bury it, bury it, bury it

And rise above

We bury it, bury it, bury it

And rise above

[Hayley Williams:]

Reaching, reaching for

Reaching for my resistance

Nobody, nobody

Nobody sees it at a distance

And I am catching up

And I am seeing red

How about I throw my weight

And raise it overhead?

I never promised you

Anything I couldn't do

We try to bury it and rise above

Bury it and rise above you, you

You never promised me

You would see it differently

Bury it and rise above

Bury it and rise above you, you

[Both:]

We bury it, bury it, bury it

And rise above

We bury it, bury it, bury it

And rise above

We bury it, bury it, bury it

And rise above

We bury it, bury it, bury it

And rise above

I never promised you

Anything I couldn't do

We try to bury it and rise above

Bury it and rise above you, you

You never promised me

You would see it differently

Bury it and rise above

Bury it and rise above you, you

We bury it, bury it, bury it

And rise above

We bury it, bury it, bury it

And rise above

We bury it, bury it, bury it

And rise above

We bury it, bury it, bury it

And rise above

Call It Off lyrics - Chvrches

(originally by Tegan and Sara)

I won't regret saying this

This thing that I'm saying

Is it better than keeping my mouth shut?

That goes without saying

Call, break it off

Call, break my own heart

Maybe I would have been something you'd be good at

Maybe you would have been something I'd be good at

But now we'll never know

I won't be sad

But in case, I'll go there everyday

To make myself feel bad

There's a chance I'll start to wonder

If this was the thing to do

I won't be out long

But I still think it's better if

You take your time coming over here

I think that's for the best

Call, break it off

Call, break my own heart

Maybe I would have been something you'd be good at

Maybe you would have been something I'd be good at

But now we'll never know

I won't be sad

But in case, I'll go there everyday

To make myself feel bad

There's a chance I'll start to wonder

If this was the thing to do

I'll start to wonder

If this was the thing to do

I'll start to wonder

If this was the thing to do

Cry Little Sister lyrics - Chvrches

(from "Nightbooks" soundtrack)

Last fire will rise behind those eyes

Black house will rock, blind boys don't lie

Immortal fear, that voice so clear

Through broken walls, that scream I hear

Cry, little sister (Thou shall not fall)

Come to your brother (Thou shall not die)

Unchain me, sister (Thou shall not fear)

Love is with your brother (Thou shall not kill)

Blue masquerade, strangers look on

When will they learn this loneliness?

Temptation heat beats like a drum

Deep in your veins, I will not lie

Cry, little sister (Thou shall not fall)

Come, come to your brother (Thou shall not die)

Unchain me, sister (Thou shall not fear)

Love is with your brother (Thou shall not kill)

My Shangri-La, I can't forget

Why you were mine, I need you now

Cry, little sister (Thou shall not fall)

Come, come to your brother (Thou shall not die)

Unchain me, sister (Thou shall not fear)

Love is with your brother (Thou shall not kill)

Cry, little sister (Thou shall not fall)

Come, come to your brother (Thou shall not die)

Unchain me, sister (Thou shall not fear)

Love is with your brother (Thou shall not kill)

Death Stranding lyrics - Chvrches

(from "Death Stranding" soundtrack)

Let's make a toast to the damned

Waitin' for tomorrow

When we're played out by the band

Drowning out our sorrows

What will become of us now at the end of time?

We'll be fine, you and I

Let's draw a line in the sand

Keep it straight and narrow

We had it all in our hands

We begged and then we borrowed

What will become of us all at the end of love

When we've stopped looking up?

You can take my heart

And hold it together as we fall apart

Maybe together we can make a mark in the stars we embark

And keep us together as the lights go dark

Let's tell the truth, just for once

Asking for an answer

Now that it's all said and done

Nothing really matters

What will become of us all if we dare to dream

At the end of the scene?

You can take my heart

Hold it together as we fall apart

Maybe together we can make a mark in the stars we embark

And keep us together as the lights go dark

Let's open up to the sky

Ask it for closure

'Least we can say that we tried

But it's never really over

What will become of us all at the end of the line?

Will we live? Will we die?

You can take my heart

And hold it together as we fall apart

Maybe together we can make a mark in the stars we embark

And keep us together as the lights go dark

And you can take my heart

And hold it together as we fall apart

Maybe together we can make a mark in the stars we embark

And keep us together as the lights go dark

Do I Wanna Know? lyrics - Chvrches

(originally by Arctic Monkeys)

Have you got colour in your cheeks?

Do you ever get that fear that you can't shift

The type that sticks around like something in your teeth?

And some aces up your sleeve?

I've no idea that you're in deep?

I dreamt about you nearly every night this week

How many secrets can you keep?

'Cause there's this tune I found that makes me think of you somehow

And I play it on repeat

Until I fall asleep

Spilling drinks on my settee

(Do I wanna know?)

If this feeling flows both ways?

(Sad to see you go)

Was sort of hoping that you'd stay

(Baby, we both know)

That the nights were mainly made for saying things that you can't say tomorrow day

Crawlin' back to you

Ever thought of calling when you've had a few?

'Cause I always do

Maybe I'm too

Busy being yours to fall for somebody new

Now I've thought it through

So have you got the guts?

Been wondering if your heart's still open

And if so I wanna know what time it shuts

Simmer down and pucker up

I'm sorry to interrupt

It's just I'm constantly on the cusp

Of trying

To kiss you

And I don't know

If you feel the same as I do

But we could be together

If you wanted to

(Do I wanna know?)

If this feeling flows both ways?

(Sad to see you go)

Was sort of hoping that you'd stay

(Baby, we both know)

That the nights were mainly made for saying things that you can't say tomorrow day

Crawlin' back to you

Ever thought of calling when you've had a few?

'Cause I always do

Maybe I'm too busy being yours to fall for somebody new

Now I've thought it through

(Do I wanna know?)

If this feeling flows both ways?

(Sad to see you go)

Was sort of hoping that you'd stay

(Baby, we both know)

That the nights were mainly made for saying things that you can't say tomorrow day

(Do I wanna know?)

Too busy being yours to fall

(Sad to see it go)

Ever thought of calling, darling?

(I'm thinkin' we both know)

Do you want me crawling back to you?

It's Not Right But It's Okay lyrics - Chvrches

(originally by Whitney Houston)

Friday night

You and your boys went out to eat

Then they hung out

But you came home around three

Now if six of ya'll went out

Then four of you were really cheap

'cause only two of you had dinner

I found your credit card receipt

It's not right, but it's okay

I'm gonna make it anyway

Pack your bags up and leave

Don't you dare come running back to me

It's not right, but it's okay

I'm gonna make it anyway

Close the door behind you, leave your keys

I'd rather be alone than unhappy

I'm packing bags so you can leave town for a week, yes I am

The phone rings then you look at me

Why'd you turn and look at me?

You said it was one of your friends

Down on 54th street

So why did 213 show up on your caller ID?

I've been through all this before

Don't think about it, don't think about it

Get gone, get gone

Things are gonna change, baby

You don't stand a chance, boy

You don't stand a chance

Don't you turn around

There's no more tears left here for you to see

Was it really worth you going out like that?

See, I'm moving on

And I refuse to turn back

See, all of this time

I thought I had somebody down for with me

It turns out

You were making a fool of me

It's not right, but it's okay

I'm gonna make it anyway

Pack your bags up and leave

Don't you dare come running back to me

It's not right, but it's okay

I'm gonna make it anyway

Close the door behind you, leave your keys

I'd rather be alone than unhappy

Out Of My Head lyrics - Chvrches (feat. Wednesday Campanella)

Over lyrics - Chvrches

Sometimes I just drive

Till the night turns off my mind

I'm passing cars, and crowded bars

Never know until I go too far

Confusing faith and fear

Paint a smile from ear to ear

'Cause if I blink, I start to think

I feel nothing, I feel everything

I try my best to turn down the noise

And I tell myself that boys will be boys

It's getting harder to breathe

So baby, put me to sleep

Till it gets better

So wake me up when it's over

It's over

When it's over

Tell me it was all just a dream

And wake me up when it's over

It's over

When it's over

Tell me it was all just a dream

And I'll believe it

Keep me in the dark

Then fast forward to the part

With endless nights and neon lights

I'll be beautiful and starry-eyed

I try my best to turn down the noise

And I tell myself that boys will be boys

It's getting harder to breathe

So, baby, put me to sleep

Till it gets better

So wake me up when it's over

It's over

When it's over

Tell me it was all just a dream

And wake me up when it's over

It's over

When it's over

Tell me it was all just a dream

And I'll believe it

Sometimes I just drive

When I can't turn off my mind

I don't know where

I'll meet you there

Someday

So wake me up when it's over

It's over

When it's over

Tell me it was all just a dream

And wake me up when it's over

It's over

When it's over

Tell me it was all just a dream

And I'll believe it

Stay lyrics - Chvrches

(originally by Rihanna)

All along it was a fever

A cold-sweat hot-headed believer

I threw my hands in the air, said, "Show me something"

He said, "If you dare, come a little closer"

Round and around and around and around we go

Oh now, tell me now, tell me now, tell me now you know

Not really sure how to feel about it

Something in the way you move

Makes me feel like I can't live without you

It takes me all the way

I want you to stay

It's not much of a life you're living

It's not just something you take, it's given

Round and around and around and around we go

Oh now, tell me now, tell me now, tell me now you know

Not really sure how to feel about it

Something in the way you move

Makes me feel like I can't live without you

It takes me all the way

I want you to stay

Ooh, ooh ooh, the reason I hold on

Ooh, ooh ooh, 'cause I need this hole gone

Funny you're the broken one but I'm the only one who needed saving

'Cause when you never see the light it's hard to know which one of us is caving

Not really sure how to feel about it

Something in the way you move

Makes me feel like I can't live without you

It takes me all the way

I want you to stay

Stay

I want you to stay

Ooh

Warning Call lyrics - Chvrches

I hear it

Echoing of every place that we've called our home

And I don't talk

Of any time I ever believed in the unknown

I need it

So I hold on to every mistake that I made alone

And I don't lie

When I say that we will never return to closing doors

Sleep tight in a new light

Through another warning call

Look down on the cold ground

No one try to break the fall

I feel it

Moving in an another direction we call our own

And I won't chase

Anyone who ever believed in what they stole

I need it

So I hold on to every piece of mine that I chose

And I don't lie

When I say that we will never return to closing doors

Sleep tight in a new light

Through another warning call

Look down on the cold ground

No one try to break the fall

Say you'll remember

To keep it all inside

You can run for the skyline

Your eyes open wide

Say you'll remember

To keep it all inside

You can run for the skyline

Your eyes open wide

(It's a memory)

Don't look away

(It's a memory)

Cause when we see it we are closer

Don't look away

Cause when we see it we are near

Say you'll remember

To keep it all inside

You can run for the skyline

Your eyes open wide

Say you'll remember

To keep it all inside

You can run for the skyline

Your eyes open wide

It's a memory, it's a memory, it's a memory, it's a memory

Everything you say
Can be heard through the white noise
And we can never stay up in arms
Everything you want
Will be held close to my heart
And we will never stay up in arms

I'm waiting for the landslide
To focus our eyes ahead
I'm keeping track and hoping
That you will follow instead
I'm waiting for the landslide
To focus our eyes ahead
I'm keeping track and hoping
That you will follow instead

Everything you love
Can be kept if it hits home
And we can never stay up in arms
Everything I learned
Will be held close to your heart
And we will never stay up in arms

I'm waiting for the landslide
To focus our eyes ahead
I'm keeping track and hoping
That you will follow instead
I'm waiting for the landslide
To focus our eyes ahead
I'm keeping track and hoping
That you will follow instead

Stay close
Keep hold
[x2]

I'm waiting for the landslide
To focus our eyes ahead
I'm keeping track and hoping
That you will follow instead
I'm waiting for the landslide
To focus our eyes ahead
I'm keeping track and hoping
That you will follow instead

Never Ending Circles lyrics - Chvrches

Throw me
No more bones and I will tell you no lies
This time
At least I am not so cold
You give me everything I never deserved
This time
You know I'll leave

Here's to taking what you came for
And here's to running off the pain
And here's to just another no man
If you want another
Say you need another
Here's to never ending circles
And building them on top of me
And here's to another no man
If you want another
Say you need another

Cut off
I'll go my way if I'm going at all
This time
Believe that the strong red lines
That I will draw will come and cover you up
This time
You know I'll leave

Here's to taking what you came for
And here's to running off the pain
And here's to just another no man
If you want another
Say you need another
Here's to never ending circles
And building them on top of me
And here's to another no man
If you want another
Say you need another

We are losing ground
It's time to save your neck
And I will try to find my feet and go
I am braced for words that never come
But I choose to decide that
I don't regret it
I don't regret it

Here's to taking what you came for
And here's to running off the pain
And here's to just another no man
If you want another
Say you need another
Here's to never ending circles
And building them on top of me
And here's to another no man
If you want another
Say you need another

Keep You On My Side lyrics - Chvrches

Everyone sees, but only I know
Nothing to lose, nothing to save to make a whole
What if I should make a loss?
Hold up both my hands, my fingers crossed

I don't sleep well, laying low
Never keepin' up, never lettin' go
What if I should look away?
Every human touch will be repayed

Without restraint
Within our veins

We bide our time, stay afloat
Keepin' the sun up off our bones
I never asked to know, never planned
Till it was swept out of my hand
We bide our time, stay afloat
Keepin' the dying light exposed
I never asked to know, never lied
So I could keep you on my side

We feel the same
Without restraint
We feel the same
Within our veins

Everyone comes, but only I stay
Nowhere to look, nowhere to turn to fall away
What if I should call it off?
Hold up my demands with my heart uncrossed

I don't sleep well, laying low
Never keepin' up, never lettin' go
What if I should let it fade
Every human touch will be repayed

Without restraint
Within our veins

We bide our time, stay afloat
Keepin' the sun up off our bones
I never asked to know, never planned
Till it was swept out of my hand
We bide our time, stay afloat
Keepin' the dying light exposed
I never asked to know, never lied
So I could keep you on my side

We feel the same
Without restraint
We feel the same
Within our veins

We feel the same
(Payin' back all our chances, payin' back what we take)
Without restraint
(Payin' back all our chances, payin' back what we take)
We feel the same
(Payin' back all our chances, payin' back what we take)
Within our veins
(Payin' back all our chances, payin' back what we take)

We bide our time, stay afloat
Keepin' the sun up off our bones
I never asked to know, never planned
Till it was swept out of my hand
We bide our time, stay afloat
Keepin' the dying light exposed
I never asked to know, never lied
So I could keep you on my side

We feel the same
Without restraint
We feel the same
Within our veins

We feel the same
(Payin' back all our chances, payin' back what we take)
Without restraint
(Payin' back all our chances, payin' back what we take)
We feel the same
(Payin' back all our chances, payin' back what we take)
Within our veins
(Payin' back all our chances, chances, chances, chances)
(Chances, chances, chances, chances, chances, chances, chances)

Make Them Gold lyrics - Chvrches

Can you tell me what to have and what to hold
If you never take the weight on your own
No one tells us what is hard and what is fair
And we will deliver once we know where to fall

We are made of our longest days
We are falling but not alone
We will take the best parts of ourselves
And make them gold

We are made of our smallest thoughts
We are breathing and letting go
We will take the best parts of ourselves
And make them gold

Can you steady all the hands that you hold
If you never look away from the drum
If you push yourself then I will pull you on
And we will deliver once we know where to fall

We are made of our longest days
We are falling but not alone
We will take the best parts of ourselves
And make them gold

We are made of our smallest thoughts
We are breathing and letting go
We will take the best parts of ourselves
And make them gold

I will wait to see if you come at all
To stop us falling out of phase
Let's see if we can keep track of losing days
You smile so wide I can see the signs
Just stop us falling out of phase
I will be with you in the fray
With those second thoughts you asked for
All you asked for

We are made of our longest days
We are falling but not alone
We will take the best parts of ourselves
And make them gold

We are made of our smallest thoughts
We are breathing and letting go
We will take the best parts of ourselves
And make them gold
And make them gold

High Enough To Carry You Over lyrics - Chvrches

No more barricades, slowly diffusing
I'll be leaving now, nobody's losing
If you could play a part, stay in resistance
Every fault would fade into the distance

Run if you like
All of the things that you left behind
Hold me down
You can't deny and I can't deny
Open your eyes
I'll look away and you come around
To build your words
High enough to carry you over

And I never would've given you up
(Never would've given you up, you up)
If you only hadn't given me up
(Only hadn't given me up, me up)
Then I never would've given you up
(Never would've given you up, you up)
If you only hadn't given me up
(Only hadn't given me up, me up)

No more clarity, only confusion
Every focused thought, just an illusion
If I could see you now, if you would listen
Every fault would fade into the distance

Run if you like
All of the things that you left behind
Hold me down
You can't deny and I can't deny
Open your eyes
I'll look away and you come around
To build your words
High enough to carry you over

And I never would've given you up
(Never would've given you up, you up)
If you only hadn't given me up
(Only hadn't given me up, me up)
Then I never would've given you up
(Never would've given you up, you up)
If you only hadn't given me up
(Only hadn't given me up, me up)

And you are
If I only hadn't given you up
If you only hadn't given me up
And you are
If I only hadn't given you up
Losin' my breath and leaving' the rest

Run if you like
All of the things that you left behind
Hold me down
You can't deny and I can't deny
Open your eyes
I'll look away and you come around
To build your words
High enough to carry you over

And I never would've given you up
(Never would've given you up, you up)
If you only hadn't given me up
(Only hadn't given me up, me up)
Then I never would've given you up
(Never would've given you up, you up)
If you only hadn't given me up
(Only hadn't given me up, me up)

Then I never would've given you up
(Never would've given you up, you up)
If you only hadn't given me up
(Only hadn't given me up, me up)
Then I never would've given you up
(Never would've given you up, you up)
If you only hadn't given me up
(Only hadn't given me up)

Empty Threat lyrics - Chvrches

Tore a line in the sun
Like there's nothing to regret and nothing to prove
Set my sights high enough
So I see the turning tides are parting for you

Taking back an empty threat
More than you could ever know
Take it back with no regrets
I was better off when I was on your side
And I was holding on

To try and not forget
Hoping that you'd never know
Take it back with no regrets
I was better off when I was on your side
And I was holding on

No more times second guessed
Like there's nothing to forget and nothing to lose
Hold my ground long enough
Till I see the turning tides are coming from you

Taking back an empty threat
More than you could ever know
Take it back with no regrets
I was better off when I was on your side
And I was holding on

To try and not forget
Hoping that you'd never know
Take it back with no regrets
I was better off when I was on your side

If we wanna stay here, can we see the waves?
They're spilling over us, filling our insides
In the rising water, in the rising tide
They're spilling over me, filling my insides
If we wanna stay here, can we see the waves?
They're spilling over us, filling our insides
In the rising water, in the rising tide
We wait for the fall
(I gotta tell you)

Maybe the water's high
(I've gotta tell you)
But I can see the difference
(I've gotta tell you)
Maybe the water's high
(I've gotta tell you)
But I can see the difference
(I've gotta tell you)
Maybe the water's high
(I've gotta tell you)
But I can see the difference
(I've gotta tell you)
Maybe the water's high
(I've gotta tell you)
But I know that this is different

Taking back an empty threat
More than you could ever know
Take it back with no regrets
I was better off when I was on your side
And I was holding on

To try and not forget
Hoping that you'd never know
Take it back with no regrets
I was better off when I was on your side
And I was holding on

Down Side Of Me lyrics - Chvrches

Maybe I
Tell you that it's no big deal
Maybe I can aim this high
Or maybe I could eat my words

You're not same, not the same, you're not the same
Not the same, you're not the same, not the same
You're not same, not the same

I believe, I believe
And tell myself to think forward
I will show I believe
And hold you up and know that you're all I see in the light
And never do what I used to

Maybe you
Could tell 'em that you stayed the course
Maybe I could tear my view
Or maybe I should eat my words

You're not same, not the same, you're not the same
Not the same, you're not the same, not the same
You're not same, not the same

I believe, I believe
And tell myself to think forward
I will show I believe
And hold you up and know that you're all I see in the light
And never do what I used to
And never do what I used to

Keep you away from the down side of me
You can keep me a drip of the light that you see
I believe that you're all that you said you would be
If I keep you away from the down side of me
(Only if you could see)
You can keep me a drip of the light that you see
(Only if I could see)
I believe that you're all that you said you would be
(Only if you could see)

If I keep you away from the down side of me
(Only if I could see)
You can keep me a drip of the light that you see
(Only if I could see)
I believe that you're all that you said you would be
(Only if I could see)
[x3]

You would be
You would be
You would be

I believe, I believe
And tell myself to think forward
I will show I believe
And hold you up and know that you're all I see in the light
All I see

I believe, I believe
And tell myself to think forward
I will show I believe
And hold you up and know that you're all I see in the light
And never do what I used to
And never do what I used to

Playing Dead lyrics - Chvrches

No more excuses and no more playing dead
There are no silver linings in anything you said
If you keep on denying and I could stay away
We could hold up our hands, say we don't want it, we don't need it

If I give more than enough ground, will you claim it?
I will take it all in one breath and hold it down
And if I try to pretend that I don't hear it
You can tell me to move and I won't go
You can tell me to try and I won't go

If I give more than enough ground, will you leave it?
I will take it all in one breath and hold it down
And if I try to pretend that I don't see it
You can tell me to move and I won't go
You can tell me to try and I won't go

No more distractions and no more staying still
I am chasing the skyline much more than you ever will
You can keep to your story and I could stick to mine
We could hold up our hands, say we don't want it, we don't need it

If I give more than enough ground, will you claim it?
I will take it all in one breath and hold it down
And if I try to pretend that I don't hear it
You can tell me to move and I won't go
You can tell me to try and I won't go

If I give more than enough ground, will you leave it?
I will take it all in one breath and hold it down
And if I try to pretend that I don't see it
You can tell me to move and I won't go
You can tell me to try and I won't go

(Go-go-go-down-go-go...)
(Go-go-go-down-go-go...)
(Go-go-go-down-go-go...)
(Go-go-go-down-go-go...)

If I give more than enough ground, will you claim it?
I will take it all in one breath and hold it down
And if I try to pretend that I don't hear it
You can tell me to move and I won't go
You can tell me to try and I won't go

If I give more than enough ground, will you leave it?
I will take it all in one breath and hold it down
And if I try to pretend that I don't see it
You can tell me to move and I won't go
You can tell me to try and I won't go

Bury It lyrics - Chvrches

Cover up, cover up, cover up that you're ruthless
Nobody, nobody, nobody's ever gonna notice
And I am catchin' up and I am seein' red
How about I prove I'm right and raise it overhead?

I never promised you anything I couldn't do
We tried to bury it and rise above, bury it and rise above
You, you, you never promised me you were seeing differently
Bury it and rise above, bury it and rise above

You, you
You bury it, bury it, bury it and rise above
You bury it, bury it, bury it and rise above

Reaching, reaching for, reaching for my resistance
Nobody, nobody, nobody sees it at a distance
And I am catchin' up and I am seein' red
How about I throw my way and raise it overhead?

I never promised you anything I couldn't do
We tried to bury it and rise above, bury it and rise above
You, you, you never promised me you were seeing differently
Bury it and rise above, bury it and rise above

You, you
You bury it, bury it, bury it and rise above
You bury it, bury it, bury it and rise above
You bury it, bury it, bury it and rise above
You bury it, bury it, bury it and rise above

I never promised you anything I couldn't do
We tried to bury it and rise above, bury it and rise above
You, you, you never promised me you were seeing differently
Bury it and rise above, bury it and rise above

You, you
You bury it, bury it, bury it and rise above
You bury it, bury it, bury it and rise above
You bury it, bury it, bury it and rise above
You bury it, bury it, bury it and rise above

Afterglow lyrics - Chvrches

All of the black and white
All of the contours
Are laid out before me now
To leave a trace

With all of the light and shape
We take up our own space
I'll find my own way back
Back to the past tense

A lifeline to highs and lows
To seeing the bright side
And I should know
We wait for the afterglow
To cover the blind side
And I should know

All of the empty thoughts
All of the outlines
Are laid out before us now
To leave a trace

All of your words and mine
They keep returning
I'll find my own way back
Back to the silence

A lifeline to highs and lows
To seeing the bright side
And I should know
We wait for the afterglow
To cover the blind side
And I should know

I've given up all I can
I've given up all I can
I've given up all I can
I've given up all I can

Follow You - Chvrches

Take your time watching over you
Waiting for a load I will take for you
Step by step I will shadow you
You can hold your own, I will only do

In your name I will cover you
Waiting for the blame I will take for you
All I need is to carry you
You can hold your own, I will hold it too

Only want what you know you need
I will come to you and know what you're asking for
You want what you know you need
I begin to see
I will come to you and follow you through the dark

Changing mind, like you always do
Waiting for the blow I will take for you
Blinding lights washing over you
You can hold your own and I will hold it too

Only want what you know you need
I begin to see
I will come to you and know what you're asking for
You want what you know you need
I begin to see
I will come to you and follow you through the dark

You want what you know you need
I begin to see
I will come to you and know what you're asking for
You want what you know you need
I begin to see
I will come to you and follow you through the dark

See the dark
See the dark
See the dark
See the dark
See the dark

Bow Down lyrics - Chvrches

Hoping for the pin to drop
Cause I can't hold it all
Trying to correct the wrongs
Say when, say when
Better luck now that you're on your own
So don't just lie there
Hoping for the pin to drop
Say when, say when

Keep counting all the fresh starts we've had
I'll raise another white flag so that
We keep counting all the fresh starts we've had
I'll fly another white flag over us

No time to bow down, no time to kill
No justifying, staying down in silence
No time to bow down, no time to kill
We stay between the white lines
[x2]

Hoping for a stroke of luck
But one you're counting on
Trying to deflect a wave
Say when, say when
What do you have and what do you want
Are you still stuck here
Hoping for a stroke of luck?
Say when, say when

Keep counting all the fresh starts we've had
I'll raise another white flag so that
We keep counting all the fresh starts we've had
I'll fly another white flag over us

No time to bow down, no time to kill
No justifying, staying down in silence
No time to bow down, no time to kill
We stay between the white lines
[x2]

Changing focus
Stay in silence
Changing focus
Stay in silence
(Changing focus)
No time to bow down, no time to kill
(Stay in silence)
No justifying, staying down in silence
(Changing focus)
No time to bow down, no time to kill
(Stay in silence)
We stay between the white lines

No time to bow down, no time to kill
No justifying, staying down in silence
No time to bow down, no time to kill
We stay between the white lines
[x2]

The white lines
Between the white lines
White lines
