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
