Miike Snow

There was a time when my world was filled with darkness, darkness, darkness
And I stopped dreaming now
I'm supposed to fill it up with something, something , something
In your eyes I see the eyes of somebody i knew before long long long ago
But I'm still trying to make my mind up
Am I free or am I tied up

I change shapes just to hide in this place but I'm still, I'm still an animal
Nobody knows it but me when i slip yeah i slip
I'm still an animal

There is a hole and i tried to fill up with money, money , money
But it gets bigger to your hopes is always

Running,running,running

In your eyes I see the eyes of somebody of who could be (slow?)
Tell me if I'm wrong
And now I'm pulling your disguise up
Or you free or are you tied up

I change shapes just to hide in this place but I'm still I'm still an animal
Nobody knows it but me when I slip
I'm still an animal

Reach the city steps tonight
Following the power lines

Met a man barside
With eclipses for eyes
And you tell yourself you wont let them touch
Did I say too much did I say enough
I don't know Sylvia
I don't know Sylvia

Circle round the room still
Breaking my will

Know I can't have you here
Someone else on your skin

And it's all my fault for not getting off
And you made it start, can you make it stop?
You don't know Sylvia


You don't know Sylvia

Daamn
Daamn

Reach the city steps tonight
Following the power lines

And your skin is so white
Underneath the black night
And your voice calls out for the Coup de grace
When the lights go out... will there be a trace?
I don't know Silvia
That I loved, Silvia
That I loved, Silvia

Misery is all we know lately
saturdays are all the same
sympathy is overrated
like a snapshot when you've lost the game

now its the funeral i become the serial killer of us all
now its the funeral i become the serial killer of us all

no i don't wanna get thrown in your ocean
dont try
you know that we already know you
its over

at your, own burial dont forget to cry
at your, own burial

looking at my 81st birthday
everyday this body goes to waste
remembering how i would raise an army
when we went back to your place

now its the funeral I become a serial killer of us all
now its the funeral I become a serial killer of us all
no I, dont wanna get thrown in your ocean
dont try, you know that we already know you
its over

at your own burial, dont forget to cry
at your own burial

at your own burial, dont forget to cry
at your own burial

met you on the palisades
The sun was spilling kerosene
And I was feeling wide awake
Girl, you can be so obscene
And when you sang a lullaby
A missionary called your name
You disappeared and hopped a flight
For the serengeti plain

Tell everyone you know
Open up the door
Tell everyone you know
Open up the door

When your love has gone
You carry on
This is her song
This the song for no one
This the song for no one

I think I own a photograph
That shows her in the freezing rain
With the the Italians on the bank
They know how to entertain
A string of pearls behind your hair
A music box to catch your tears
Now call your mother in L.A.
She hasn`t heard your voice in years

Tell everyone you know
Open up the door
Tell everyone you know
Open up the door

When your love has gone
You carry on
This is her song
This the song for no one x3

When your love has gone
You carry on
This is her song
This the song for no one

You can jump a ride
But don`t ask why
And don`t close your eyes
This the song for no one x3

Morning bled at the water's edge
The city was bringing me down
And my mind was on a ledge
Saying who's gonna help you now?

Without sun we pull what feeds us from the heat
that's in-between us
How can we expect to build a boat
Seagulls running everything

Hard. You make it hard. Hard.

It's all the opposite I think
The ladder runs side to side
Enough to make you want a drink
But there's no place to hide

Watching shadows within shadows within shadows,
They hide their dark self from the sun,
And her voice is just a memory
you're not fooling anyone

Hard. You make it hard. Hard.

Hard. You make it hard. Hard.

Oh god, I think I'm dying
and our drinks were just poured.
Look outside someone's waiting
with a yellow horse.

With a hole in the heart I was forced to ride
in morning traffic.
With a golden hand by your fortress side
but without magic.

Somebody tell me it won't be long
'cause a horse is not a home
a horse is not a home.

Uninvited to the play
where language doesn't hurt
with nothing on my shirt.
Sometimes I swim with you
in a room that is ocean-sized and clear not here
where all I breathe is smoke.

With a hole in the heart I was forced to ride
in morning traffic
with a golden hand by your fortress side
but without magic.
Somebody Somebody Somebody tell me
it won't be long
'cause a horse is not a home
a horse is not a home.

All my life I've been the slave of consequence
wondering how this life could be so intricate.
I wanna rewrite my heart and let the future in
I wanna open it up and let somebody in

can you free me from the logic that I knew
I believe it even if it is not true.

Am I falling asleep on my feet again?


I call out, is anybody listening
and it's like I'm diving into emptiness
but at least there's something beating in my chest

can you free me from the logic that I knew
I believe it even if it is not true.

> I was born into money,
And sold down the river.
I was choked by the jailor
And fucked the gorilla.
I ran through the country ahead of my time.
I escaped through a keyhole before they erased me
I married the beetle and learned to be graceful
It's why all this warfare pours out of my eyes.
Now I see just what you mean
It hurts too much to breathe
All alone in this plastic jungle
Sometimes I wanna get slain
I wanna get slain (x6)
I wanna get la la la la la ...
She told me loved me
I didn't believe her.
The son of a junkie is ancient Korean
But don't blame the girl she's out of her mind
Now I see just what you mean
It hurts too much to bleed
All alone in this plastic jungle
Sometimes I wanna get slain
I wanna get slain (x6)
I wanna get la la la la la ...
Sometimes I wanna get (x2)
Sometimes I wanna get slain
I wanna get slain (x6)
I wanna get la la la la la la la la la
