As i commited my crimes in a darkened room
A bird flew by, and saw what i'd done it set up a nest outside
And he sang about what i'd become
He sang so loud
He sang so clear
I was afraid all the neighbours would hear
So i invited him in, to reason with him
I promised i wouldn't do it again
But he sang louder and louder inside the house
And now i couldn't get him out
So I trapped him under a cardboard box
And stood on it to make him stop
I picked up the bird and above the dim i said
"That's the last song you'll ever sing"
Held him down, broke his neck
Taught him a lesson he wouldn't forget

Then i put that bird...

Are you hurting the one you love?
You say you've found Heaven but you can't find God.
Are you hurting the one you love?
Bite your tongue till it tastes like blood.

Are you hurting the one you love?
So many glasses on the tabletop.
Are you hurting the one you love?
You'd like to stay in heaven but the rules are too tough.

Tough,
It's just too tough.
Tough,
It's just too tough.

Are you hurting the one you love?
When they watched the walls, and the ticking clock.
Are you hurting the one you love?
And was it something you could not stop.

Could not stop.
Stop,
Could not stop.
Stop,
Could not stop.
Stop,
Could not stop.
Stop,
Could not stop.

Are you hurting the one you love?
When you leave them sleeping on the hollow ground.
Are you hurting the one you love?
And lost for themselves.

Are you hurting the one you love?
And if heaven knows then who will stop.
Are you hurting the one you love?
You said you got to heaven, but it wasn't enough.

[Verse 1]

(Yeah-ah-ah, yeah-ah-ah)
(Yeah-ah-ah, yeah-ah-ah)
(Yeah-ah-ah, yeah-ah-ah)
(Yeah-ah-ah, yeah-ah-ah)
(Yeah-ah-ah, yeah-ah-ah)

Oh the river oh the river it's running free,
Oh the joy oh the joy it brings to me,
But I know it'll have to drown me,
Before I can breathe easy,
And I've seen it in the flights of birds,
I've seen it in you,
And the entrails of the animais in the blood running through,
But in order to get to the heart,
It takes some time you have to cut through.
(We can, I know you can...)

[Chorus]

Just keep following the heartlines on your head,
Just keep following the heatlines on your head,...

Sometimes I feel like throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying "Lord I just don't care"
But you've got the amor I need To see me through

Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough
And things go wrong no matter what I do
Now and then it seems that life is just too much
But you've got the amor I need to see me through

When comida is gone you are my daily meal
When friends are gone I know my savior's amor is real
Your amor is real

You got the love
You got the love
You got the love
You got the love
You got the love
You got the love

Time after time I think "Oh...

I'm not calling you a liar,
Just don't lie to me.
I'm not calling you a thief,
Just don't steal from me,
I'm not calling you a ghost,
Just stop haunting me,
And i amor you so much,
I'm gonna let you,
Kill me.

There's a ghost in my lungs
And it sighs in my sleep,
Wraps itself around my tongue,
As it softly speaks
Then it walks, then it walks with my legs

To Fall,
To Fall,
To Fall, at your feet.
Oh but for the grace of god go on,
And when you kiss me, I'm happy enough to die.

I'm not calling you a liar,
Just don't lie to me.
And i amor you so much,
I'm gonna let you
I'm not calling you a thief,
Just don't,
And i love...

[Verse 1]

All a lone it was always there you see,
And even on my own it was always standing seguinte to me,
I can see if coming from the edge of the room,
Creeping in the rua light,
Holding my hand in the pail gloom,
Can you see it coming now?

[Chorus]

Oh-oh-oh-oh,
I think I'm breaking down again,
Oh-oh-oh-oh,
I think I'm breaking down.

[Verse 2]

All a lone even when I was child,
I've always known there was something to be frightened of,
And I can see it coming from the edge of the room,
Creeping in the rua light,
Holding my hand in the pail gloom,
Can you see it coming now?

[Chorus Repeat]

[Verse 3]

All a lone on the edge of sleep,
My old familiar friend comes a lies down seguinte to me,
And I can see if coming from the edge of the room,
Smiling in the rua light,
Even with my eyes shut tight,
I still it coming now.

[Chorus Repeat] (X2)
I've fallen out of favor and I've fallen from grace
Fallen out of trees and I've fallen on my face
Fallen out of taxis, out of windows too
Fell in your opinion when I fell in amor with you

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Sometimes I wish for falling, wish for the release
Wish for falling through the air to give me some relief
Because falling's not the problem, when I'm falling I'm at peace
It's only when I hit the ground it causes all the grief

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Whoa-oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

This is a song for a scribbled-down name
And my amor keeps composição literária again...

[Verse 1]

Holy water cannot help me now,
A thousand armies couldn't keep me out,
I don't want your money,
I don't want your crowd,
See I have to tell you,
You're a ...
Holy water cannot help you now,
See I've had to burn your kingdom down,
And no rivers and no lakes can put the fogo out,
I'm gonna raise the stakes,
I'm gonna smoke you out.

[Chorus]

Seven devils all around you,
Seven devils in my house,
See they were there when I woke up this morning,
I'll be dead before the dia is done,
Seven devils all around you,
Seven devils in your house,
See I was dead when I woke up this morning,
I'll be dead before the...

[Verse 1]

Well I can't help but frown underneath,
This fractured moonlight on the sea,
Reflections still look the same to me,
That's before I went under,
And it's peaceful in the deep cause this is where you cannot breathe,
No need to pray no need to speak: now I am under,
And it's breaking over me,
A thousand miles down to the see bay,
Found a place to rest my head,
(Never let me go, never let me go-o)
(Never let me go, never let me go-o)

[Chorus]

In the arms of the ocean help carry me,
And all this devotion was rushing out of me,
The crushes are Heaven for a sinner like me,
Let the arms of the ocean deliver...

When your life is over I won't be sad or bluer
I'll put on my fancy hat, lie down seguinte to you
I'll kiss you once for life; I'll kiss you twice for death
Hold you close for comfort, wearing my best dress

You look so angry when you sleep, your face a troubled frown
So I will smooth your furrowed brow as I lay in the ground
I'll kiss you once for life; I'll kiss you twice for death
I'll hold you close for comfort, wearing my best dress

And as the mourners pass me, I will smile and wave
Thank them for their sympathy and tell them I'll be brave
But once the wake is over, and I'm drunk and feeling fine
I'll...

Florence Welch is taking her Machine out on tour again, hitting the Metro Radio Arena in Newcastle on March 16. But this time, the UK chart-topper tells Andy Welch, there’ll be no mais rock ’n’ roll antics – it’s all about the music


Amid the deliveries, collections and heavy traffic of a west Londres industrial estate, something very exciting is happening. While one particular unit’s exterior is just as bland as all the others, its insides contain mais colour and drama than any of the passing couriers could possibly imagine.

“We’re testing out giant video screens and projectors,”...

Between two lungs it was released
The breath that carried me
The sigh that blew me forward

(Chorus)
Because it was trapped
Trapped between two lungs
it was trapped between two lungs
It was trapped between two lungs

And my running feet could fly
Each breath sceaming
"We're all too young to die"

Btween two lungs it was released
The breath that passed from you to me
That flew between us as we slept
That slipped from your mouth into mine it krept
(x2)

Because it was trapped
Trapped between two lungs
It was trapped between two lungs

Now all the days of begging
The days of theft
No mais gasping for a breath
The air has filled me head-to-toe
And i can see the ground far below
I have this breath and I hold it tight
And I keep it in my chest with all my might
I pray to God this breath will last
As it pushes past my lips as I...
GASP GASP

oooo ooooooo ooooo oooo
If you could only see the beast you've made of me
I held it in but now it seems you've set it running free
Screaming in the dark, I howl when we're apart
Drag my teeth across your chest to taste your beating heart

My fingers claw your skin, try to tempt my way in
You are the moon that makes the night for which I have to howl
My fingers claw your skin, try to tempt my way in
You are the moon that breaks the night for which I have to

Howl, howl
Howl, howl

Now there's no rolling back, I'm aching to attack
My blood is cantar with your voice, I want to pour it out
The saints can't help me now, the ropes have...

You hit me once
I hit you back
You gave a kick
I gave a slap
You smashed a plate over my head
Then I set fogo to our bed

You hit me once
I hit you back
You gave a kick
I gave a slap
You smashed a plate over my head
Then I set fogo to our bed

My black eye casts no shadow
Your red eye sees nothing
Your slap don't stick
Your kicks don't hit
So we remain the same
Love sticks
Sweat drips
Break the lock if it don't fit

A kick to the teeth is good for some
A kiss with a fist is better then none

A kiss with a fist is better then none

I broke your jaw once before
I spilled your blood upon the floor
You broke my leg in return...

Between two lungs it was released

Between two lungs it was released

That flew between us as we slept
That slipped from your mouth into mine
It crept between two lungs
It was released
The breath that passed from you to me
That flew between us as we slept
That slipped from your mouth into mine
It crept

[Verse 1]

I'm gonna be released from behind these lights,
I don't care whether I leave or die,
And I'm loosing blood,
I'm gonna leave my bones,
And I don't want your heart,
It leaves me cold,
I don't want your future I don't need you past,
One brand moment is all I ask.

[Chorus]

I'm gonna leave my body,
(Moving up to higher ground)
I'm gonna loose my mind,
(The mystery keeps pulling me down)
Said I'm gonna leave my body,
(Moving up to higher ground)
I'm gonna lose my mind,
(The mystery keeps pulling me, and pulling me down)

I don't need a husband I don't need no wife,
And I don't need the dead or need...

[Verse 1]

And the coração is hard to translate,
It has a language of it's own,
It talks in tongues and quiet sighs and prayers and proclamations,
In the grand days of great men and the smallest of gestures,
In short shallow gasps,
But with all my education,
I can’t seem to commend it,
And the words are all escaping me,
And coming back all damaged,
And I would put them back in poetry,
If I only knew how,
I can’t seem to understand it.

[Chorus]

And I would give all this and heaven too,
I would give it all if only for a moment,
That I could just understand the meaning of the word you see,
Cause I’ve been scrawling...

[Verse 1]

When we first came here,
We were cold and we were clear,
With no as cores on our skin,
We were light and paper thin,
And when we first came here,
We were cold and we were clear,
With no as cores on our skin,
Until we let the spectrum in,
Say my name and every color illuminates,
We are shining and we will never be afraid again.

[Chorus]

Say my name and every color illuminates,
We are shining and we will never be afraid again,
Say my name and every color illuminates,
We are shining and we will never be afraid again.

[Verse 2]

And hen we come for you,
We'll be dressed all in blue,
With the ocean in our arms,...

[Verse 1]

You are the hole in my head,
You are the o espaço in my bed,
You are the silence in between,
What I thought and what I said,
You are the nighttime fear,
You are the morning when it's clear,
When it's over you're a star,
You're my head and you're my heart.

[Chorus]

No light no light in your bright blue eyes,
I never knew daylight could be so violent,
A revelation in the light of day,
You can't choose what stays and what fades away,
And I'd do anything to make you stay,
No light no light,
Tell me what you want me to say.

[Verse 2]

In the crowd I was crying out,
And in your place there were a thousand war...
