Up In Arms lyrics - Chrvrches

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
