White lies, Death
Pubblicato da janejacobs su Gennaio 25, 2009
Dal primo album dei White Lies, il video di Death mischia la musica pop anni ‘80 e l’attrazione per la morte di Edgar Allan Poe. Segue il testo.
I love the feeling when we lift up
watching the world so small below
I love the dreaming when I think of
the safety in the clouds out my window
I wonder what keeps us so high up
could there be a love beneath these wings
if we suddenly fall should I scream out
or keep very quite and cling to my mouth as i’m crying
so frightened of dying
relax yes i’m trying
this fears got a hold on me
yes, this fears got a hold on me
I love the quite of the night time
when the sun in the deathly sea
I can feel my heart beating as I speed from
then sense of time catching up with me
the sky set out like a pathway
but who decides which path we take
as people drift into a dream world
I close my eyes as my hands shake and when i see a new day
who’s driving this anyway
I picture my own grave
cause fears got a hold on me
yes this fears got a hold on me
Floating neither up or down I wonder when I’ll hit the ground
well the earth beneath my body shake
and cast your sleeping hearts awake
could it tremble stars from moon light skies
could it drag a tear from your cold eyes
I live on the right side I sleep in the left
that’s why everything’s got to be love or death
yes this fears got a hold on me
