Chvrches Lyrics

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

I need out of my, out of my, out of my head

I need out of my, out of my head

I need out of my, out of my, out of my head

I need out of my, out of my head

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

Leave A Trace lyrics - Chvrches

I gave up on time
Just like you said you would
There are tiny cracks of light underneath me
And you say I got it wrong
But I tried hard to uncover them

I have somehow got
Away with everything
Anything you ever did was strictly by design
But you got it wrong
And I'll go anywhere but there

And you had best believe
That you cannot build what I don't need
And I know I need to feel relief
And I know you'll never fold
But I believe nothing that I'm told
And I know I need to feel relief

I know I need to feel released
Take care to tell it just as it was
Take care to tell on me for the cause
I know I need to feel released
Take care to bury all that you can
Take care to leave a trace of a man

I will show restraint
Just like we said we should
You think I'll apologize for things I left behind
But you got it wrong
And I'm as sane as I ever was

You talk far too much
For someone so unkind
I will wipe the salt off of my skin
And I'll admit that I got it wrong
And there is grey between the lines

And you had best believe
That you cannot build what I don't need
And I know I need to feel relief
And I know you'll never fold
But I believe nothing that I'm told
And I know I need to feel relief

I know I need to feel released
Take care to tell it just as it was
Take care to tell on me for the cause
I know I need to feel released
Take care to bury all that you can
Take care to leave a trace of a man

I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know

I know I need to feel released
Take care to tell it just as it was
Take care to tell on me for the cause
I know I need to feel released
Take care to bury all that you can
Take care to leave a trace of a man

I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know

Clearest Blue lyrics - Chvrches

Light, it's all over us
Like it always was
Like it always was

Shape by the clearest blue
But it's not enough
It's not enough, not enough

Just another time we're caught inside
Every open eye
Holding on tightly to the sides
Never quite learning why
You'll meet me, you'll meet me
You'll meet me halfway

Whenever I feel it coming on
You can be well aware
If ever I try to push you away
You can just keep me there
So please say you'll meet me
Meet me halfway

Tied to the shifting ground
Like I always was
Like I always was

You, were the perfect star
But it's not enough, it's not enough
Not enough, not enough

Just another time that I go down
But you were keeping up
Holding to a hope you undermined
Never to be reversed

Just another time we're caught inside
Every open eye
Holding on tightly to the sides
Never quite learning why

Whenever I feel it coming on
You can be well aware
If ever I try to push you away
You can just keep me tell me

Tell me tell me, you'll meet me
Tell me tell me, you'll keep me
Tell me tell me, you'll meet me
Will you meet me more than halfway

Shape by the clearest blue
Shape by the clearest blue

Get Away lyrics - Chvrches

I can only see you when I close my eyes.
There's nothing left of you here.
We had the time, we had the time.

The things that I remember I do not regret.
They don't mean a thing here.
We had the time, we had the time.

I'll be your guide
So you can see the other side
Then I will never let you get away
Never let you get away

I'll hold you hands so you can see
Crossing your heart and hoping
To never let you get away,
Never let you get away.

Everything you prayed for is not overhead
No one else will save you
Wake up your mind,
Wake up your mind.

Trust me when I tell you
We are on our own.
Overlap your fingers
And run through the pines.
We'll run through the pines.

I'll be your guide
So you can see the other side
Then I will never let you get away
Never let you get away

I'll hold you hands so you can see
Crossing your heart and hoping
To never let you get away,
Never let you get away.

I'll be your guide
So you can see the other side
Then I will never let you get away
Never let you get away

I'll hold you hands so you can see
Crossing your heart and hoping
To never let you get away,
Never let you get away.

Never let you get away [x4]

The Mother We Share lyrics - Chvrches

Never took your side, never cursed your name
I keep my lips shut tight, until you go-o-oh
We've come as far as we're ever gonna get
Until you realize, that you should go-o-oh

I'm in misery where you can seem as old as your omens
And the mother we share will never keep your proud head from falling
The way is long but you can make it easy on me
And the mother we share will never keep our cold hearts from calling

In the dead of night, I'm the only one here
And I will cover you, until you go-o-oh
'Cause if I told the truth, I will always be free
And keep a prize with me, until you go-o-oh

I'm in misery where you can seem as old as your omens
And the mother we share will never keep your proud head from falling
The way is long but you can make it easy on me
And the mother we share will never keep our cold hearts from calling

Into the night for once, we're the only ones left
I bet you even know, where we could go-o-oh
And when it all fucks up, you put your head in my hands
It's a souvenir for when you go-o-oh

I'm in misery where you can seem as old as your omens
And the mother we share will never keep your proud head from falling
The way is long but you can make it easy on me
And the mother we share will never keep our cold hearts from calling

We Sink lyrics - Chvrches

We are
I've come apart and you made me
Float like
A pretty box of your evil
So tired
So easy I

Bleed out
What the fuck were you thinking
We are
Gonna fall if you lead us
Nowhere
No wasted time

[Chorus x2:]
I'll be a thorn in your side
Till you die
I'll be a thorn in your side
For always
We sink
We lift our love

We are
Let me stop for a second
Held heart
Only beats in the evening
Low tide
Watching for flight

I tell you
To cut it out but you made me
You know why
The slowest spark is a breather
How high
How will you decide

[Chorus]

So low
You keep stalling
Could you not see why

Say, say, say

Love was

Say, say, say

That you see cry

A simple call seems right
And I know why

[Chorus]

Get up after you
Get up after you

Gun lyrics - Chvrches

You had better run from me
With everything you own
Cause I am gonna come for you
With all that I have

I am gonna break you down
To tiny, tiny parts
I never believed, but I see it now
I'm learning your lesson, I’m learning your lesson

Did it make you feel so clever
Did you wear it on your sleeve
Did you see another picture
Where I was not a part so far entwined

There's no other way
Never run far
Take a good swing at me
And everything is even
So finally, we agree
No place for promises here
You better run, you better run so
Hide, hide, I have burned your bridges
I will be a gun
And it's you I'll come for
I, I, have never felt so easy
I will be a gun, and it's you I'll come for

Who are you to tell me how
To keep myself afloat
I tread the water all the while
You stuck in the knife
That you held at my back

Did it make you feel so clever
Did you wear it on your sleeve
Did you see another lifetime
Where I was not a part so far entwined

There's no other way
Never run far
Take a good swing at me
And everything is even
So finally, we agree
No place for promises here
You better run, you better run so
Hide, hide I have burned your bridges
Now I'll be a gun
And it's you I’ll come for
Hide hide never felt so easy
I will be a gun
And it's you I'll come for

There is no other way
Never run far
Take a good swing at me
And everything is even
So finally, we agree
No place for promises here
You better run, you better run so
Hide, hide I, have burned your bridges
I will be a gun
And it's you I’ll come for
Hide, hide have never felt so easy
I will be a gun
And it’s you I'll come for
And it’s you I'll come for
And it’s you I'll come for
And it’s you I'll come for
And it’s you I'll come for
And I’m gonna see that you won't go far
And I’m gonna see that you won't go far
And I’m gonna see that you won't go far
And I’m gonna see that you won't go far

Tether lyrics - Chvrches

[Verse 1:]
Where'd you go, you were there by my side
Keep believing it's my turn to hide
In a place where we don't have a prayer
There's a tether that's keeping me there

[Chorus:]
Trade our places
Take no chances
Bind me 'til my lips are silent

Stay where you are
Ever, after
Chasing things that we should run from

[Verse 2:]
Will we ever get away from this place
It's an image that's burned on my chest
For a moment you need me to stay
Cold blooded and drifting away

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
I'm feeling capable of
Seeing the end

I'm feeling capable of
Saying it's over
[x7]

Lies lyrics - Chvrches

Faster, faster, you won't go far
Shouldn't leave, feeling faith, we both know why
You got to show me, both knees, cold I lie
Hold me slowly, hide me till I can fly
Always we can sing, we can make time
Old songs, flood and flame, you could be mine
But you got to show me, both knees, skin and bone
Clothe me, throw me, move me - till

[Chorus:]
I can sell you lies
You can't get enough
Make a true believer of
Anyone anyone anyone
I can call you up if I feel alone
I can feed your dirty mind
Like I know I know what you are

Icon of symmetry, swallowing sides
Fall down in front of me, follow my eyes
But I've got to see you moving, waste no time
Teach me, make me holy - till

[Chorus:]
I can sell you lies
You can't get enough
Make a true believer of
Anyone anyone anyone
I can call you up if I feel alone
I can feed your dirty mind
Like I know like, like I know, what you want

Anyone anyone anyone
Anyone anyone anyone
Like I know, like I know, what you want
Like I know, like I know, what you want

I can sell you lies
You can't get enough
Make a true believer of
Anyone anyone anyone
I can call you up if I feel alone
I can feed your dirty mind
Like I know, like I know, what you want

Under The Tide lyrics - Chvrches

[Verse 1:]
I'm watching you run
Run from the sidelines

Take in a breath
Fill in your lungs
Keeping you alive

No fear
I'll your eyes
I'll be a lifeline

And if I can be
I'll be your strength
And it won't be long now

[Chorus:]
Head up, head up
Keep holding, holding
Your head up, head up
Keep holding, holding

[Verse 2:]
If you can see
And you believe
Why are you so scared

But if you don't care
Then why are we here
And what do you have left

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
Don't you take another step
Away from here
I would go anywhere with you
What a lie

I'll break down
But you will never see
Tell me, are you happy?
Are you really happy?

Stay under the tide
Stay in my eyeline
Looking ahead, there is a chance
Wherever it all ends

[Chorus:]
Head up, head up
And stay strong
Holding your head up, head up
Keep holding, holding

Night Sky lyrics - Chvrches

[Verse 1:]
I will carry you and give you life
I will cover you and show you the way
It's a sequence that you never learned
It's a lesson I will never forget

I can hear you in the overtones
Just an echo of the promise we made
Change the future, we can travel time
Or make us blind so we can never look back

We can never look back

[Hook:]
I'm the night-sky
I'm the fire in your eyes
And I want you
Now and for all time
I'm the cold heart
I'm the secret that you hide
I'll be listening until you decide

[Verse 2:]
I communicate in simple strings (take your time)
I'm the only one who gave you the truth (speak to me)
Once you leave me you were really gone (far and near)
Give me something to remember you by (always be)
All that's here is what you left behind (majesty)
Slowly moving in the back of my mind (can't forget)
Take a moment to remember me (and our ways)
Make me blind so I don't ever look back

Only in your name
I will ne'er be free

[Hook x2]

Science / Vision lyrics - Chvrches

Breathe
Don't speak
It's leaving your body now
Slow heart
Set free
A circuit of consciousness
When you are truly yourself
You will
Succumb to a permanence
A light by day
A shadow resides by night

I (I) hear (hear) your (your) breathing

I (I) feel (feel) you (you) leaving

With understanding
You won't let it cast you down
A mind full of questions
A current to purify
Science and vision
Be near when I call your name
Or ask me a question

I (I) hear (hear) your (your) breathing

Breathe
Don't speak
It's leaving your body now

I (I) feel (feel) you (you) leaving

Heart set free
A circuit of consciousness

I (I) hear (hear) your (your) breathing

Light by day
A shadow resides by night

I (I) feel (feel) you (you) leaving

With understanding
You won't let it cast you down
A mind full of questions
A current to purify
Science and vision
Be near when I call your name
A mind full of questions
A current to purify
Science then vision
Be near when I call your name
Or ask me a question

Lungs lyrics - Chvrches

How long till you leave it?
You should know that we're alone this time
Keep yourself a secret, you should know that
I will sell you a future you don't want
Like I did last time
I won't go slow
All the things you tell yourself
Offer no resolution

You know that this will break us
But you push as far as we can go
Taking every chance to find solutions
That never make anyone happy
We are done this time
You don't owe me
Take a final look at me
Take it, and drink it in

Breathe through me
Fill up your lungs with us
I will keep everything
You give me
Till the time
We let go

Breathe through me
Fill up your lungs with us
I will keep everything
You give me
Till the time
We let go

Keep me in your eyeline
Keep believing what you said before
I will change direction
I will tell you that everything's moving too slowly
Just another lie, one more untruth
You won't ever see through me
You will still drink it in

Breathe through me
Fill up your lungs with us
I will keep everything
You give me
Till the time
We let go

You know that this will break us
But you push as far as we can go
Taking every chance to find solutions
That never make anyone happy
We are done this time
You don't owe me
Take a final look at me
Take it

By The Throat lyrics - Chvrches

Bad blood and no holds barred
A warning shot, a sacrifice that we made

You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far [x2]

Waste of time or waste of fear?
Do it again, again until you unfocus them away

You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far [x2]

[Chorus:]
All that's golden is never real
And I won't play fair with you this time
All that's golden is never sold
And I'll be thankful when you let go

You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far [x2]

With teeth we've come this far
I'll take this thing by the throat and walk away

You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far [x2]

Remember me as I will you
Honesty will wreck this point that we made

You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far [x2]

[Chorus]

You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far [x2]

Taking over parts of mine
That I will pay for every time

You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far [x2]

If I could catch you and cut your ties
I would leave you, every time

[Chorus]

You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far [x4]

You Caught The Light lyrics - Chvrches

[Verse 1:]
I hear you when you call
There's a sign for her and everyone
And go on, but not with me
And let it all fall down
Let it all fall down

[Chorus:]
Sky is light
You caught the light
You carried mine
You caught the light

[Verse 2:]
They said that you would call
And take it all, it's history
And we're laughing until the end
Let the rain come down
Let it all come down

[Chorus x2:]
Sky is light
You caught the light
You carried mine
You caught the light

Strong Hand lyrics - Chvrches

Why don't you tell me what do you need
There is a blank page for you
Give me the bones of what you believe
Maybe they'll save you from me

Will I be the strong hand keeping you safe
or will I break you in half
and you will never be under my thumb
but you were not your own land

See the way we all run
When we know it off by heart
Played down, waiting all out
When we win or lose it this time

When the pressure's building for a great white hope
do you give up the things that you love
and the pressure's building till it takes you whole
can you go back on your own word

All of your brothers, they never died
For what you kill for slowly
How it will grind you into the ground
If you should try to hold me

See the way we all run
When we know it off by heart
Played down, waiting all out
When we win or lose it this time

When the pressure's building for a great white hope
do you give up the things that you love
and the pressure's building till it takes you whole
can you go back on your own word

When the pressure's building for a great white hope
do you give up the things that you love
and the pressure's building till it takes you whole
can you go back on your own word

Broken Bones lyrics - Chvrches

Catch them and kill them
You're only hope is evil
I will not die, I will keep quiet
I will hold you high above

You're on your own
Wait till dawn and then go

No help here from heaven
You're not as real as I am
I will wake up the dark eyes
Until your blood is out

You're on your own
I'm lying in here
Inside your sleep
Keep yourself
Awake for this
Wait till dawn and then go

Our love will never die
Broken bones and promises
Your weakness is clear now
I see your kind eyes

You're on your own
Wait till dawn and then go

You are another one
Buried here by no one
I will keep you inside with your soul alive
You're on your own
Keep your head beneath your hands
Play your part
All on your own
Closed and bruised
You're on your own

Recover lyrics - Chrvches

Carved earth, cold
Hiding from you in this skin, so old
I'll come clean
Everywhere everyone knows it's me

And if I recover
Will you be my comfort
Or it can be over
Or we can just leave it here
So pick any number
Choose any color
I've got the answer
Open the envelope

I'll give you one more chance
To say we can change or part ways
And you take what you need
And you don't need me

I'll give you one more chance
To say we can change our old ways
And you take what you need
And you know you don't need me

Blow by blow
Honest in every way I know
You appear
To face a decision I know you fear

And if I recover
Will you be my comfort
Or it can be over
Or we can just leave it here
So pick any number
Choose any color
I've got the answer
Open the envelope

I'll give you one more chance
To say we can change or part ways
And you take what you need
And you don't need me

I'll give you one more chance
To say we can change our old ways
And you take what you need
And you know you don't need me

And you know you don't need me

And if I recover
Will you be my comfort
Or it can be over
Or we can just leave it here
So pick any number
Choose any color
I've got the answer
Open the envelope

I'll give you one more chance
To say we can change or part ways
And you take what you need
And you don't need me

I'll give you one more chance
To say we can change our old ways
And you take what you need
And you know you don't need me
