Love Is Mystical lyrics - Cold War Kids
And when my heart won't break
An empty space between my lungs
And when my knees won't shake
I'll drink to find inspiration
Cause I'm a red blooded man
But I can't see behind the sun
(I can't see behind the sun)
A supernatural plan
Is coming to meet me now
Living life with no need for the brakes
Something happens when I lean on my mistakes
Love is mystical
Love will break the chains
You might feel invincible
And you might be afraid
Light in darkness will show you the way
Give you the power to believe again
Cause I'm a rational man
And I can see how far I've come
(I can see how far I've come)
But I don't know where to stand
Or who's coming to meet me now
Living life with no need for the brakes
Something happens when I lean on my mistakes
If the words are true
And the words reveal the same
I come alive when I don't even think
Love is mystical
Love will break the chains
You might feel invincible
And you might be afraid
Light in darkness will show you the way
Give you the power to believe again
Oh, can't you hear the future is calling
For heaven's sake
It's either hell or high water
Let's get outta this place
I feel your skeptical eyes
On my mental state
I lift my hands to the sky
And I lower the stakes, oh yeah
And I lower the stakes, oh yeah
And I lower the stakes
Love is mystical
Do you feel the same?
Love is irresistible
It's calling out your name
Light in darkness will show you the way
Give you the power to believe again
Give you the power to believe again
Give you the power to believe again
Give you the power to believe again
Give you the power to believe again
To believe again
To believe again
Can We Hang On? lyrics - Cold War Kids
I come here nine times asking you to not make it ten
I'm peeling off all the honor and protecting my skin
Apologize, I'm laying down my ego to rest
Would you be mine forever? Just in case it exists
I think about the old days
What we didn't do to survive
Do we get better with time?
Tell me I'm wrong
Looking back to the start who we were when we met
This box of pictures tells a story when we fight, we forget
And I can barely recognize those back that we were obsessed
Can't cut out this madness and get back to the best
Think about the old days
What we didn't do to survive
Do we get better with time?
Tell me I'm wrong
I'm looking to your old ways
We follow the same dotted line
Passing like ships in the night
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
This could've gone either way if one of us had walked
If I'd gone off, and you'd caved in
And we broke it off, I'd be lost
I'd be chasing some broke down dream
I'd be bored to death
But we cannot stay forever young and out of our heads
Out of our heads
I think about tomorrow
If I can get through tonight
I know that we'll be alright
Can we be strong?
I'm looking to your old ways
Even though we like ships in the night
Don't you go passing me by
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
Can we hang on?
You can't find it
If you're dying to live
If you want to know the secret, hang on
You can't find it
If you're dying to live
If you want to know the secret, hang on
You can't find it
If you're dying to live
If you want to know the secret, hang on
So Tied Up lyrics - Cold War Kids (feat. Bishop Briggs)
You can't cut me loose until you show me
I told you the truth about the old me
And now you use confession as the proof
Do what you have to do
Go ahead and act the fool
What if in the end
You want so bad to forgive
But you cannot forget
So (so tied up)
We've been here before
So (so tied up)
You want something more
Lover, best friend, my worst enemy
You know I won't let you get away
I get you to swerve right outta fast lane
You still got champagne running through your veins
You dare me to step up and challenge you
Neither one of us can stand to lose
Stand to lose
Remember we said it'd be like after the rain
Washes away our sins
They never said that love is a twisted game
And no one ever wins
So (so tied up)
We've been here before
So (so tied up)
You want something more
Lover, best friend, my worst enemy
You know I won't let you get away
So so, so tied up
So, so, so, so tied up
So so, so tied up
So, so, so, so tied up
You threw me a rope
Opposites attract
I'm self absorbed and you're superficial
We round each other up
Being true to yourself could never be enough
(So so, so tied up)
I tried to let go
(So, so, so, so tied up)
We've been here before
Lover, best friend, my worst enemy
You know I won't let you get away
So tied up
So tied up
So tied up
So tied up
Restless lyrics - Cold War Kids
People wonder, people talk
We're supposed to settle down
How we ever got this far
Without our feet touching the ground
What time is it now where you are?
We follow beats with different drums
We're looking at the same star
It is a talent staying young
So why you think we both
Run around in circles
Walk through fire
Nothing hurts us
Every mountain you climb takes you further away
All the common lifetime, every day
No, we can't help it
We're always restless
Now you're wired and you're tired
There is never a break
You only come alive at the thrill of the chase
No, we can't help it
We're always restless
Try to keep it all up in the air
You ruin it when you ask why
You know it's not that I don't care
I don't get jealous, I get free
Everything good comes back to me
It seems like wherever you are
Is just a better place to be
So why you think we both
Run around in circles
Will you meet me
In the middle?
Every mountain you climb takes you further away
All the common lifetime, every day
No, we can't help it
We're always restless
Now you're wired and you're tired
There is never a break
You only come alive at the thrill of the chase
No, we can't help it
We're always restless
We already know the ending
When the credits roll down slow
I'll hurry back
I'll hurry back
I'll hurry back
To you
Every mountain you climb takes you further away
All the common lifetime, every day
No, we can't help it
We're always restless
Now you're wired and you're tired
There is never a break
You only come alive at the thrill of the chase
No, we can't help it
We're always restless
I'll hurry back
I'll hurry back
I'll hurry back
(Restless, restless, I feel restless)
I'll hurry back (restless)
I'll hurry (restless) back
(I feel) I'll hurry (restless) back
(I feel restless)
(Restless, restless)
LA River lyrics - Cold War Kids
On the LA river
On the LA river
I know it's familiar
But tell me why you wanna stay in New York
Why you wanna stay in New York
[?]
And you can't find the right chord
On the LA river
On the LA river
Come on, come on, come on
On the LA river
No Reason To Run lyrics - Cold War Kids
In the mirror I see my face
I've got to let this go
What if all my decisions are fear based?
What if I lose control?
I'm asking for an intervention
I've tried to fly solo
It's not a question of whether I will fall, it's how hard I hit the floor
When did I feel it?
How did I know that you were the one?
I am defeated
I got no reason to run, no reason to run
I wanna be proud of your movement
Somebody sign me up
Have you ever felt so authentic?
Like you belong to the world
Freedom is overrated
I'm not gonna come undone
I can't lose my motivation
Laying out, day in the sun
When did I feel it?
How did I know that you were the one?
I am defeated
I got no reason to run, no reason to run
Don't wanna hear your praise
Don't reminisce on glory days
Bite the tears, yeah I'm okay
I'm like a crow
Man-to-man
Walking out of my cage
I have evolved like a fish growing legs
Hope you like a light hole crept in my brain
I am changed, yeah I have changed
I got you
And I'm never gonna be the same
When did I feel it? (When did I feel it?)
How did I know that you were the one?
I am defeated (I am defeated)
I got no reason to run, no reason to run
Stay by my side
No reason to run
So we're in love, so alive
No reason to run
Stay by my side
No reason to run
So we're in love, so alive
No reason to run
Stay by my side
No reason to run
So we're in love, so alive
I got no reason to run
Stay by my side
No, no reason to run
So we're in love, so alive
No reason to run
Open Up The Heavens lyrics - Cold War Kids
Secrets ain't no good
Their dyes keep on lying
I'm like Robin Hood
I've made myself an island
I'm hiding in the shade
I go dark on summer days
This is the price of my freedom
Cars, boats, airplanes
I'm bored, insane
Do you know how long I'll wait for you?
Till I'm black and blue
And do you think we all hide from the truth?
In ways, I do
No I'm not looking back no more
The past is close behind
I [?]
The passport and the driver
My job is laying low
Camouflage, filming gold
In disguise at the border
Cars, boats, airplanes
I'm bored, insane
Do you know how long I'll wait for you?
Till I'm black and blue
And do you think we all hide from the truth?
In ways, I do
Open up the heavens, we're kicking down the gate
Ask you real, real nice
Will you let us stay?
Open up the heavens, we're kicking down the gate
You smile real, real wide
Then slap us in the face
Do you know how long I'll wait for you?
Till I'm black and blue
And do you think we all hide from the truth?
In ways, I do
Do you know how long I'll wait for you?
Till I'm black and blue
And do you think we all hide from the truth?
In ways, I do
Open up the heavens, kicking down the gate
We're asking real, real nice
Will you let us stay?
Open up the heavens, kicking down the gate
You smile real, real wide
Then slap us in the face
Invincible lyrics - Cold War Kids
Detached from the violence
Paradise, we're chilled to the bone
It only takes a moment of silence
We stare in disbelief at our phones
We cried out for justice
Now it's just a fairytale
Box in our cars on Christmas
Is it just a wasted prayer?
And no
I don't feel invincible anymore
What can I get closer for?
From my bed
I can't feel your suffering
I'm seeing red
Can't get you out of my head
Can't get you out of my head
Your beautiful body
Watching arrows fall from above
What if we attack like an army?
The only weapon we use is love
And no
I don't feel invincible anymore
What can I get closer for?
From my bed
I can't feel your suffering
I'm seeing red
Can't get you out of my head
Can't get you out of my head
Oh
I don't feel invincible
Invincible
I don't feel invincible
Invincible
Invincible
I don't feel invincible
Invincible
What are we still talking about?
What you said
Nothing is shocking
Can't get you out of my head
Invincible
Can't get you out of my head
Invincible
Can't get you out of my head
Wilshire Protest lyrics - Cold War Kids
I am marching with the protest
I got so much to say, but I'm only here to witness
There's a war inside my head
And I'm surrendering to weakness
We're separated by steel and glass
In traffic trapped on the freeway, every body is a DJ
Looking down at our phones for the fastest way to get home
Don't text me there should be no king
I can wait
My chemical's are spiking like a lie detector
Dopamine, serotonin, happiness is not the answer
We dream of being a true spirit
We are divided by false Gods and hyped up leaders
We binge on the [?] on the bleachers
We worship talent, but we don't see if anybody can even see it
First you must believe it
So keep your nosebleed seats
I'd rather be irrelevant
What if I crossover and nobody remembers it?
Will we stay together?
Even if I never get discovered?
This is the west coast where dreams will make a line
This is the promise land, the gold rush
Luck Down lyrics - Cold War Kids
We're fireworks
We shoot so high
But tell me what becomes of the rising sun
It burns before it shines
Now the same thing happens every time
And now the same thing happens every time
You're going bottoms up
And you get down
You're going bottoms up
And you get down on your luck
You're not the first
To touch the sky
Well I could try to save you from the fall
I'll be your alibi
Now the same thing happens every time
And now the same thing happens every time
You're going bottoms up
And you get down
You're going bottoms up
And you get down on your luck
You got the [?]
The true romantic [?]
Friends don't let friends suffer long
You're gonna drag me down instead
Now the same thing happens every time
And now the same thing happens every time
You're going bottoms up
And you get down
You're going bottoms up
And you get down
You're going bottoms up
You're down and down and down on your luck
Thanks to you I'm invincible
You won't hear me out, selection no
You better [?] with every pull
I'm looking out for you
It's you and I at the door
Ordinary Idols lyrics - Cold War Kids
I spiral down again
Such a struggle just to keep an ordinary love
Ain't got the time for friends
Why am I working so hard and barely keeping up?
Who remains when you drop?
Who do you call when it stops?
I spiral down again
Somebody protect me or I'm gone
Why would you idolize me?
There's nothing I got that you don't
You keep on fantasizing
I'll always be the underdog
Give me more
Give me more
I'm the one you that you ignore
Give me more
Give me more
I'm the one you that you ignore
Where'd you find your confidence?
Are you willing to make out of yourself?
It's curse of common sense
We all wanna be something different, someone else
You become what you watch
What I love can't be taught
Imitation is not a sin
You're only guilty if you're caught
Why would you idolize me?
There's nothing I got that you don't
You keep on fantasizing
I'll always be the underdog
Give me more
Give me more
I'm the one you that you ignore
Give me more
Give me more
I'm the one you that you ignore
This city's made for dreamers
It's like the Garden of Eden
Before the apple leading
You're just sleeping
Drink and play all day
But you won't ever fall in love
No you won't ever lift it up
You just wanna fall in love
No you won't ever fall in love
Why would you idolize me?
There's nothing I got that you don't
Obsessing and fantasizing
I'll always be the underdog
Give me more
Give me more
Give me more, give me more, give me more
I'm the one you that you ignore
Cameras Always On lyrics - Cold War Kids
I can't live in my mind
But I can't be everything to you at the same time
I want to be famous in your eyes
But the camera's always on
The camera's always on
Part Of The Night lyrics - Cold War Kids
We are a part of the night
Part of the night
You see me through my darkest times
We are a part of the night
Part of the night
I feel you when I close my eyes
I hate to get all emotional
The separation leaves us vulnerable
I'm so aware of what you must think of me
I used to have so many tricks up my sleeve
I wish I could be the one who's shining, who's always honest
And I feel the daze driving to right my wrongs
We are a part of the night
Part of the night
You see me through my darkest times
We are a part of the night
Part of the night
I feel you when I close my eyes
I guess you knew what you were getting into
I'm temperamental and [?]
Will we divide and [?]
Who set out, who set out to live two separate dreams
Do your friends say I'm playing the artist card?
But they don't sympathize when it gets too hard
We are a part of the night
Part of the night
You see me through my darkest times
We are a part of the night
Part of the night
I feel you when I close my eyes
Careful not to overexpose
Do you remember what we started this for?
The damage we gave up is bigger than us
It was a vision built from the ground up
So it's ours to crush
We are a part of the night
Part of the night
You see me through my darkest times
We are a part of the night
Part of the night
You see me through my darkest times
We are a part of the night
Part of the night
I feel you when I close my eyes
We are a part of the night
Part of the night, part of the night, part of the night that I need you
Part of the night, part of the night, part of the night that I need you
We are a part of the night
Part of the night, part of the night, part of the night that I need you
Part of the night, part of the night, part of the night that I need you
Free To Breathe lyrics - Cold War Kids
So why should I believe that everything will be alright?
That everything will be alright
If only we were free to breathe
And why should I believe that everything will be alright?
That everything will be alright
Imagine how good we could be
We like to drink with our feet on the fire
We like to argue the meaning of life
Like brothers, we know how to fight
It's on our shoulders to set the world right
What's the difference if we disagree?
Is heaven above? Is hell underneath?
Doesn't change the news on the streets
Doesn't bring us closer to peace
So why should I believe that everything will be alright?
That everything will be alright
If only we were free to breathe
So why should I believe that everything will be alright?
That everything will be alright
Imagine how good we could be
Woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah
Woah
What kinda father leaves his kids in the rain?
What kinda God would not explain?
If this life is all that we get
You better hope something good comes next
The world is changing
Can you feel the tension?
If you're not angry, then you must not be listening
The world is changing
Can you feel the tension?
If you're not angry, you must not be listening
1 x 1 lyrics - Cold War Kids (feat. Wesley Schultz)
In a flash of sleep
The dream that broke my heart
There were no border lines
Keeping us apart
But then I wake up
To the sound of crying kids
No mothers here to hold
We can only wish
So I'll sing you a song
To show you my mind
Its all that I can do
To help us pass the time
One by one
We will come
You make me wait
Counting my mistakes
One by one
We will come
You make me wait
At the gate
To see your face again
Walked a thousand miles
To this promised land
Little did we know
We were already damned
How can I find sleep
When they wont turn off the light
My stomachs rumbling
No more dreams tonight
I'll sing you a song
Cuz I'm so far down
The hardest thing to do
Make a joyful sound
One by one
We will come
You make me wait
Counting my mistakes
One by one
We will come
You make me wait
At the gate
To see your face again
One by one
We will come
One by one
One by one
You make me wait
Counting my mistakes
One by one
One by one
We will come
You make me wait
You make me wait
Counting my mistakes
Freedom lyrics - Cold War Kids
(originally by George Michael)
All white as snow and black as night
You know you can't give up the fight
There with the stars up in the sky
The angel band sings by and by
I want to walk, I can't sit down
I want the road, I want the crown
Fear not the day when all is lost
This earthly wealth ain't worth the cost
Shadows and lights in pair that cling
Allow your soul the right to sing
All through the night, the moon will shine
The whispers heard defeat the time
Allowed to be with feasting eyes
And life alone, it is the prize
And all the things you thought you knew
Accuse the sky of being blue
Freedom from these trials in this troubled world below
Freedom from these trials in this troubled world below
Heaven In Your Hands lyrics - Cold War Kids
In the land of the plenty, your cup is empty
So tired but waiting your turn
You tried being clever, down for whatever
How many times you've been burned
Now with random statistics, detached and cryptic
You only see the bad signs
The system is failing, can't stop despairing
Nothing is changing your mind
There's a moment when you got to ask
What if heaven was to fall right in your hands
When your walls come down and the lights go up
What if heaven was to fall right in your hands
Cast out and hopeless, we were the closest
When did everything change
Is it lack of religion that makes you willing
You spin like a whirlpool there
So shout what you're feeling, truth is revealing
There's so much beauty that remains
There's a moment when you got to ask
What if heaven was to fall right in your hands
When your walls come down and the lights go up
What if heaven was to fall right in your hands
There's a moment when you got to ask
What if heaven was to, what if heaven was to
There's a moment when you got to ask
There's a moment when you got to say what you want
Whoever it hurts, whatever the cost
When the love that you need is so hard to find
Get up off your knees and reach for the sky
There's a moment when you got to ask
What if heaven was to fall right in your hands
What if heaven was to fall right in your hands
When your walls come down and the lights go up
When your walls come down and the lights go up
What if heaven was to fall right in your hands
When your walls come down and the lights go up
What if heaven was to fall right in your hands
Locker Room Talk lyrics - Cold War Kids (feat. Reggie Watts)
Locker room talk
I can't believe
You think you're gonna get around it
Dirt in your mouth
Mic on the sleeve
We all heard how it sounded
So many lies
Ya think that its true
Try walking on water
With a brick
In your shoes
You're gonna end up
Drowning
Ya conquer the small
To live like a king
From way up in your tower
Show us your hand
We know you're just bluffing
You got no real power
Keeping your word
Don't mean a thing
All your friends
Turn in to enemies
How could you be grounded
The hate in your heart
Everybody can see
Your head is hollow, man
You ain't fit to lead
Lets stand up and be counted
Minimum Mistake lyrics - Cold War Kids
Remember when I saw a movie 'bout the rapture
Strange '70s zombie movie eschatology
One day the non-believers woke to alarm clocks
Empty houses, barking dogs
Half the human race was gone
Oh, the minimum day
The minimum day
Took them away
I left feeling terrified
Ripped me a new behind
What happened to the people on a plane if the pilot might
Spontaneously disappear
When it goes down for real
The motherless babies and the quixotic teenagers cry
Oh, the minimum day
The minimum day
Take me away
The minimum day
The minimum day
Take me away
Once upon a time even Tom needed proof (Peter)
And Peter would sell you out
Deep down Judas was a sweet kid
James had the nerve to ask you for a VIP
I look around and say
On my hands, no I can't hide 'em
On my knees, no I can't stand 'em
On my hands, no I can't hide 'em
On my knees
On my time, on that day
I'm sorry sugar but speaking's a mistake
On my time, on that day
I'm sorry sugar but speaking's a mistake
On my time, on that day
I'm sorry sugar but speaking's a mistake
I might as well just lay down and die
Ah
I might as well just lay down and die
I might as well just lay down and die
I might as well just lay down and die
I might as well just lay down and die
(I might as well just lay down and die)
Opium Tea lyrics - Cold War Kids
(originally by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds)
Here I sleep the morning through
'Til the wail of the call to prayer awakes me
And there is nothing at all to do
But rise and follow the day wherever it takes me
I stand at the window and I look at the sea
And I am what I am and what will be will be
I stand at the window and I look at the sea
And I make me a pot of opium tea
Down at the port I watch the boats come in
Watching the boats come in can do somethin' to ya
And the kids gather 'round with an outstretched hand
And I toss them a dirham or two
Well, I wonder if my children are thinking of me
'Cause I am what I am and what will be will be
I wonder if my kids are thinking of me
And I smile and I sip my opium tea
At night the sea lashes the red rust ramparts
In the shapes of hooded men who pass me
And the moan and the wind laughs and laughs and laughs
The strange lot that fate has cast me
The cats on the rampart sing merrily
That he is what he is and what will be will be
The cats on the rampart sing merrily
And I sit and I drink my opium tea
I'm a prisoner here, I can never go home
There is nothing here to win or lose
There are no choices need to be made at all
Not even the choice of havin' to choose
But I'm a prisoner yes, but I'm also free
'Cause I am what I am and what will be will be
I'm a prisoner here but I'm also free
And I smile and I sip my opium tea
Past Life lyrics - Arkells & Cold War Kids
Feeling like I'm falling
I've been getting uptight
Staring at the ceiling
Trying to get it just right
You know what's on my mind
I can't look you in the eye
I'm getting on the freeway
Underneath the night sky
I'm a little wallflower
Singing 'One Headlight'
Looking for a sign
Superstitions make me blind
I'm sick of running from a past life
I don't care about the next one
Am I running from the moment?
Or the city where I come from?
Right now I'm feeling like a stranger
Don't recognize the voice inside my head
Cuz I've been running from a past life
I wanna live, I wanna live, I wanna live
I wanna live this life instead
Today I saw my reflection
In a broken window
Gave me a flashback
Crying in my pillow
It's not my first time
On this rodeo ride
Because I never got to be young
I was born an old soul
I feel like Bob Dylan's son
Always in the shadows
I've gotta find my own
Way to write a song
I'm sick of running from a past life
I don't care about the next one
Am I running from the moment?
Or the city where I come from?
Right now I'm feeling like a stranger
Don't recognize the voice inside my head
Cuz I'm running from a past life
I wanna live, I wanna live, I wanna live
I wanna live this life instead
Can we take back
All these lies that
Added up to wasted
Years and wasted time
Let's make it right
Here in this life
After all we've been through
There's nothing left to lose
I'm sick of running from a past life (Running from a past life)
I don't care about the next one (I don't care about the next one)
Am I running from the moment? (Am I running from the moment?)
Or the city where I come from? (Or the city where I come from?)
Right now I'm feeling like a stranger (Feeling like a stranger)
Don't recognize the voice inside my head
Cuz I've been running from a past life (Running from a past life)
I wanna live, I wanna live, I wanna live
I wanna live this life instead
I wanna live, I wanna live this life instead
I wanna live, I wanna live this life instead
I wanna live, I wanna live this life, live this life
Sick of running from a past life
I'm sick of running, sick of running from a past life
Romance Languages #1 lyrics - Cold War Kids
(from "Dallas Buyers Club" soundtrack)
I have never had a devastating loss
Watch over me, when my bell rings
I would rather be lucky than smart
Blow me a rode so I can blow rings
I'm exhausted by romance
I was lost in the languages
Guardian angel what do you see?
I have tripped on all your signs
I would rather give blood than make art
Your so mysterious when your light shines
I'm exhausted by romance
I was lost in the languages
I'm exhausted by romance
I was lost I was lost in the languages
I'm exhausted by romance
Teachers, teachers for twenty odd years
My head balloned you tried to pierce my ears
Preachers, preachers send them in so well
They can't compare, to the women I sells
I'm exhausted by romance
I was lost in the languages
I'm exhasted by romance
I was lost, I was lost in the languages
I'm exhausted by romance
I'm exhausted by romance
I'm exhausted by romance
I'm exhausted by romance
Story Of Our Lives lyrics - Cold War Kids
(from "Bill & Ted Face The Music" soundtrack)
I'm getting older but I don't feel like
I've got all the answer like I know I'm right
If anything I think I know less now
We can't even agree on if the world is round
Took me for granted, I could understand
This ain't a situation you got yourself in
I kept watching you from the sidelines
I didn't do nothing while you sat there crying
I'm here to listen, how could I help out
I'm the one who needs to get my heart broke now
I'm moving slow but I can't be fixed
Tell me what did I miss?
The story of our lives
In the end it's just you and me
I used to live and I had too much
Thought I couldn't really make a difference
Now it feels like the eleventh hour
Feels like it's time to give up my power
I'm here to listen, how could I help out
I'm the one who needs to get my heart broke now
I'm moving slow but I can't be fixed
Tell me what did I miss?
That's why I need you tonight
I feel like I'm gonna lose my way
The story of our lives
In the end it's just you and me
Can you hear me now?
So now you opened by eyes
I feel like I'm gonna lose my way
The story of our lives
In the end it's just you and me
I wanna tell you the story of our lives
Story of our lives
Even after the music fades
The story of our lives
The story of our lives
The story of our lives
But can you tell me the story of our lives
Ooh, can you hear me now?
Can you hear me, can you hear me now?
Can you hear me now?
Can you hear me now?
Vacation In Chicago lyrics - Cold War Kids
I kiss the kids at noon
Then stumble out the room
I caught a cab
Ran up a tab on 7th and Flower
Best recital I had to run
Missed my son's graduation
Punched the Nichols boy for taking his seat
He gets all that anger from me
Still thing could be much worse
Natural disaters on the evening news
Still things could be much worse
We still got our health
My paycheck in the mail
I promised to my wife and children
I'd never touch another drink aslong as I lived
But even then
It sounds so soothing
This will blow over in time
This will all blow over in time
I'm just an honest man
Provide for me and mine
I give a cheque to tax deductable charity organisations
Two weeks paid vaction won't heal the damage done
I need another one
Still things could be much worse
Natural disaters on the evening news
Still things could be much worse
We still got our health
My paycheck in the mail
I promised to my wife and children
I'd never touch another drink as long as I lived
But even then, it sounds so soothing to mix a gin
And sink into oblivion
I promised to my wife and children
That accident left everyone a little sup
But at the meetings I felt so empty
This will blow over in time
This will all blow over in time
What You Say (Remix) lyrics - Cold War Kids (feat. Zella Day)
Another, what this song, like
Another, what this song, like
Another
Do you have something specific?
Oh yeah
I've been working my whole life to cover
Afraid to speak my mind from judgement
So let's shake it up this time, be honest
I'm not ashamed of what I love in the darkness
When the stars realign, we are gonna let it shine
I'm waiting for the night to come
I'm waiting for the tide to pull me in
I'm waiting 'til I find the one
Someone who will take me as I am
If I show you that I'm soft, I worry
So I let the gloves come off in a hurry
The taste of my own blood is salty
But I'll fight for what I love 'cause I'm worthy
It's all the silly little fears that break
If you got time to think
I'm feeling all the ways
Are you feeling all the ways?
When the stars realign, we are gonna let it shine
I'm waiting for the night to come
I'm waiting for the tide to pull me in (What you say)
I'm waiting 'til I find the one
Someone who will take me as I am (What you say)
I'm waiting for the night to come
I've waited all my life
I'll shout it from the rooftops
When I'm looking in your eyes
I'm waiting for the night to come
I'm waiting for the night to begin
Saving, saving (Saving, ooh)
Saving my love for ya (Saving my love for you)
Saving, saving (Saving, ooh)
Saving my love for ya
I'm waiting for the night to come
I'm waiting for the tide to pull me in
I'm waiting for the night to come
I'm waiting for the night to begin (What you say)
I'm waiting for the night to come
I've waited all my life
I'll shout it from the rooftops
When I'm looking in your eyes
I'm waiting for the night to come
I'm waiting for the night to begin (What you say)
(What you say)
Waiting for the night to come
I'm waiting for the night to begin
