Everything_Now (Continued) lyrics - Arcade Fire
I'm in the black again
Can't make it back again
We can just pretend
We'll make it home again
From everything now
Everything Now lyrics - Arcade Fire
Every inch of sky's got a star
Every inch of skin's got a scar
I guess that you've got everything now
Every inch of space in your head
Is filled up with the things that you read
I guess you've got everything now
And every film that you've ever seen
Fills the spaces up in your dreams
That reminds me
(Everything now)
(Everything now)
Every inch of road's got a sign
And every boy uses the same line
I pledge allegiance to everything now
Every song that I've ever heard
Is playing at the same time, it's absurd
And it reminds me, we've got everything now
We turn the speakers up till they break
'Cause every time you smile it's a fake
Stop pretending, you've got...
(Everything now!) I need it
(Everything now!) I want it
(Everything now!) I can't live without
(Everything now!) I can't live without
(Everything now!)
(Everything now!)
Everything now
Every inch of road's got a town
Daddy, how come you're never around?
I miss you, and everything now
Mama, leave the food on the stove
Leave your car in the middle of the road
This happy family with everything now
We turn the speakers up till they break
'Cause every time you smile it's a fake
Stop pretending, you've got...
(Everything now!) I need it
(Everything now!) I want it
(Everything now!) I can't live without
(Everything now!) I can't live without
(Everything now!)
(Everything now!) 'Til every room in my house
(Everything now!) Is filled with shit
(Everything now!) I couldn't live without
(Everything now!) I need it
(Everything now!) I can't live without
(Everything now!)
(Everything now!)
Everything now
La la la la la, la la la
La la la la, la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la, la la la
La la la la, la la la
La la la la la la
Stop pretending, you've got...
(Everything now!) I need it
(Everything now!) I want it
(Everything now!) I can't live without
(Everything now!) I can't live without
(Everything now!) I can't live
(Everything now!) And every room in my house
(Everything now!) Is filled with shit
(Everything now!) I couldn't live without
(Everything now!) I need it
(Everything now!) I can't live without
(Everything now!) I can't live
(Everything now!) Every inch of space
(Everything now!) In my heart
(Everything now!) Is filled with something I'll never start
The ashes of everything now
And then you're black again
Can't make it back again
From everything now
Signs Of Life lyrics - Arcade Fire
Those cool kids
Stuck in the past
Apartments of cigarette ash
Wait outside until it begins
Won't be the first ones in
Spend your life waiting in life
You find it hard to define
But you do it every time
Then you do it again
Looking for signs of life
Looking for signs every night
But there's no signs of life
So we do it again
Looking for signs of life
Looking for signs every night
But there's no signs of life
So we do it again
First kiss tastes like cigarettes
Dead man walking take your bets
Once again you lost your friends
Around and around again
Those cool kids
Stuck in the past
Apartments of cigarette ash
"Where are we going?"
Who did you ask?
Those cool kids
Stuck in the past
In a world of cigarette ash
"Where are we going?"
Who did you ask?
Who did you ask?
Looking for signs of life
Looking for signs every night
But there's no signs of life
So we do it again
Looking for signs of life
Looking for signs every night
But there's no signs of life
So we do it again
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday
Friday, Saturday, sometimes Sunday
Love is hard, sex is easy
God in heaven, could you please me?
You think you invented life
You find it hard to define
But you do it every time
Then you do it again
Looking for signs of life
Looking for signs every night
But there's no signs of life
So we do it again
Still looking for signs of life (Signs of Life)
Looking for signs every night
But there's no signs of life
So we do it again
Those cool kids
Stuck in the past
In a world of cigarette ash
"Where are we going?"
Who did you ask?
Who did you ask?
Looking for signs of life
Looking for signs every night
But there's no signs of life
So we do it again
Looking for signs of life
Looking for signs every night
But there's no signs of life
So we do it again
(Still looking)
Looking for signs of life
(Signs of life)
Still looking for signs of life
(Signs of life)
Looking for signs of life
Looking for signs every night
But there's no signs of life
So we do it again
Looking for signs of life
Looking for signs every night
But there's no signs of life
So we do it again
Creature Comfort lyrics - Arcade Fire
Some boys hate themselves
Spend their lives resenting their fathers
Some girls hate their bodies
Stand in the mirror and wait for the feedback
Saying
God, make me famous
If you can't just make it painless
Just make it painless
Assisted suicide
She dreams about dying all the time
She told me she came so close
Filled up the bathtub and put on our first record
Saying
God, make me famous
If you can't just make it painless
Just make it painless
It goes on and on, I don't know what I want
On and on, I don't know if I want it
On and on, I don't know what I want
On and on, I don't know if I want it
(On and on I don't know what I want)
(On and on I don't know if I want it)
(On and on I don't know what I want)
(On and on I don't know if I want it)
Some girls hate themselves
Hide under the covers with sleeping pills and
Some girls cut themselves
Stand in the mirror and wait for the feedback
Some boys get too much, too much love, too much touch
Some boys starve themselves
Stand in the mirror and wait for the feedback
Creature comfort makes it painless
Bury me penniless and nameless
Born in a diamond mine
It's all around you but you can't see it
Born in a diamond mine
It's all around you but you can't touch it
Saying
God, make me famous
If you can't just make it painless
Just make it painless
It's not painless
She was a friend of mine, a friend of mine
And we're not nameless, oh
It goes on and on, I don't know what I want
On and on, I don't know if I want it
On and on, I don't know what I want
On and on, I don't know if I want it
(On and on I don't know what I want)
(On and on I don't know if I want it)
(On and on I don't know what I want)
Well if you're not sure, better safe than sorry
Creature comfort, make it painless
Creature comfort, make it painless
We're the bones under your feet
The white lie of American prosperity
We wanna dance but we can't feel the beat
I'm a liar, don't doubt my sincerity
Just make it painless
Creature comfort, make it painless
Na-na-na-na na-na-na
Na-na-na-na na-na-na
(Na-na-na-na na-na-na)
(Na-na-na-na na-na-na)
Creature comfort, make it painless
Peter Pan lyrics - Arcade Fire
In my dreams you're dying
It wakes me up, and I can't stop crying
I just wanna live forever
Keep my promises, keep it together
In my dreams you're living
Open your eyes, and I wake up forgiven
Just a little something to thin the blood
How can I live with so much love?
Singing
Be my Wendy, I'll be your Peter Pan
Come on baby, take my hand
We can walk if you don't feel like flying
We can live, I don't feel like dying
Be my Wendy, I'll be your Peter Pan
Come on baby, ain't got no plans
Boys and girls got all the answers
Men and women keep growing their cancers
Singing
In my dreams we're kissing
It wakes me up, but you've gone missing
Born so close, but we grow apart
And all the sickness starts in the heart
In my dreams you're dying
It wakes me up, and I can't stop crying
'Cause it's a date night, dead-eyed American dream
And it leaves you baby, if you let it leave
Singing
Be my Wendy, I'll be your Peter Pan
Come on baby, take my hand
We can walk if you don't feel like flying
We can live, I don't feel like dying
Be my Wendy, I'll be your Peter Pan
Come on baby, ain't got no plans
Just a little something to thin the blood
How can I live with so much love?
Singing

Electric Blue lyrics - Arcade Fire
Summer's gone and so are you
See the sky electrocute
A thousand boys that look like you
Cover my eyes electric blue
Now I can't get my head around it
I thought I found it
But I found out I don't know shit
Now I can't get my head around it
I thought I found it
But I found out
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
A thousand girls that look like me
Staring out at the open sea
Repeat the words until they're true
Cover my eyes electric blue
Now I can't get my head around it
I thought I found it
But I found out I don't know shit
Now I can't get my head around it
I thought I found it
But I found out
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Now you've got me so confused
'Cause I don't know how to sing your blues
Jesus Christ, what could I do?
I don't know how to sing your blues
Now I can't get my head around it
I thought I found it, but I found out
Cover my eyes electric blue
Cover my eyes electric blue
Every single night I dream about you
Every single night I dream about you
Cover my eyes electric blue
Cover my eyes electric blue
Every single night I dream about you
Every single night I dream about you
Cover my eyes electric blue
Cover my eyes electric blue
Every single night I dream about you
Every single night I dream about you
Cover my eyes electric blue
Cover my eyes electric blue
Every single night I dream about you
Every single night I dream about you
Cover my eyes electric blue
Cover my eyes electric blue
Every single night I dream about you
Every single night I dream about you
Cover my eyes electric blue
Cover my eyes electric blue
Every single night I dream about you
Every single night I dream about you
Cover my eyes electric blue
Cover my eyes electric blue
Every single night I dream about you
Every single night I dream about you
Good God Damn lyrics - Arcade Fire
You want to get messed up?
When the times get rough
Put your favourite record on baby
And fill the bathtub up
You want to say goodbye
To your oldest friends
With the good God damn
With the good God damn
Lay out your clothes
It's time to go
It's always darkest before the dawn
The sun never shows
I could say goodbye
To your oldest friends
Maybe there's a good God, damn
Maybe there's a good God, damn
Maybe there's a good God, damn
Maybe there's a good God, damn
Could there be a good God? damn
Could there be a good God? damn
Maybe there's a good God
Damn
Let me get messed up?
When the times get rough
Put your favourite record on baby
Fill the bathtub up
You could say goodbye
To your sick old friends
Maybe there's a good God, damn
Maybe there's a good God, damn
Maybe there's a good God, damn
Maybe there's a good God, damn
Could there be a good God? Damn
Could there be a good God? Damn
Maybe there's a good God, damn
Maybe there's a good God, damn
Maybe there's a good God, damn
Maybe there's a good God
If He made you
If He made you
Put Your Money On Me lyrics - Arcade Fire
Put your money on me
'Cause I can barely breathe
Put your money on me
Put your money on me
If you think I'm losing you, you must be crazy
All your money on me
I'm never gonna let you go, even when it's easy
Put your money on me
Or tuck me into bed, and wake me when I'm dead
I know that you gotta be free
But I'm never gonna let it go
If there was a race, a race for your heart
It started before you were born
Above the chloroform sky
Clouds made of ambien
Sitting on carpets in the basement of Heaven
We were born innocent, but it lasts a day
And baby you can give all the money away
But if there's a race, a race for your heart
It's over before it starts
Singing
Put your money on me
If you think I'm losing you, you must be crazy
All your money on me
I'm never gonna let you go, even when it's easy
Put your money on me
Or tuck me into bed, and wake me when I'm dead
I know that you gotta be free
But I'm never gonna let it go
All my presents are broken before they're open
And the promises, the second they're spoken
I know I've been different
My skin keeps shedding
My mother was crying on the day of our wedding
Trumpets of angels call for my head
I fight through the ether and I'll quit when I'm dead
If you want to know who'll be there in the end
When you bury me, baby, I'll still be your friend
Singing
Put your money on me
If you think I'm losing you, you must be crazy
All your money on me
I'm never gonna let you go, even when it's easy
Put your money on me
Or tuck me into bed, and wake me when I'm dead
I know that you gotta be free
But I'm never gonna let it go
Singing put your money on
All your money on me
Put your money on
I know it's not the last time
Put your money on
All your money on
Put your money on
I know it's not easy
(To put your money on me)
('Cause I can barely breathe)
(When you put your money on me)
When Silicon Valley's melted back into silicon
We'll find a way to survive
Singing
Put your money on me
If you think I'm losing you, you must be crazy
All your money on me
I'm never gonna let you go, even when it's easy
Put your money on me
Or tuck me into bed, and wake me when I'm dead
I know that you gotta be free
But I'm never gonna let it go
Singing put your money on
All your money on me
Put your money on
I know it's not the last time
Put your money on
All your money on
Put your money on
I know it's not easy
To put your money on
All your money on me
Put your money on
I know it's not the last time
Put your money on
All your money on me
Put your money on
I know it's not easy
(To put your money on me)
(All your money on me)
We Don't Deserve Love lyrics - Arcade Fire
Keep both eyes on the road tonight
'Cause I'm driving home to you
A terrible song on the radio
Baby what else is new?
You don't want to talk
You don't want to touch
You don't even wanna watch TV
You say I can't see the forest for the trees
So burn it all down, and bring the ashes to me
Keep both eyes on the road tonight
'Cause God knows where I've been
Officer please, don't check my breath
That ain't my only sin
You don't want to talk
You don't want to touch
You don't even wanna watch TV
If you can't see the forest for the trees
Just burn it all down, and bring the ashes to me
Keep you waiting, hour after hour
Every night, in your lonely tower
Looking down at all of the wreckage
When we met, you'd never expect this
And you said, maybe we don't deserve love
Maybe we don't deserve love
Maybe we don't deserve love
We don't deserve
We don't deserve love
Maybe we don't deserve love
Keep both eyes on the road tonight
'Cause I'm driving home to you
Terrible song on the radio
Baby what else is new?
Been hiding my scars in broad daylight bars
Behind laugh tracks on TV
If you can't see the forest for the trees
Just burn it all down, and bring the ashes to me
Keep you waiting, hour after hour
Every night, in your lonely tower
Looking down at all the wreckage
When we met you'd never expect this
And you say, maybe we don't deserve love
Keep you waiting, hour after hour
Every night, in your lonely tower
Looking down at all the wreckage
When we met you'd never expect this
And you say, maybe we don't deserve love
Maybe we don't deserve love
Maybe we don't deserve love
We don't deserve
We don't deserve love
(We don't deserve love)
Mary, roll away the stone
The men that you love
Always leave you alone
Well go on Mary
Roll away the stone
The men you love always leave you alone
You hear your mother screaming
You hear your daddy shouting
You try to figure it out
You never figured it out
Your mother's screaming
That you don't deserve love
If you don't deserve love
And if I don't deserve love
What could we deserve?
Come down off your cross
And tell me!
It's always the Christ-types
Mary, roll away the stone
The one that you love
Always gonna leave you alone
Particularly the Christ-types
Mary, roll away the stone
The one you love
Always leave you alone
It's always the Christ-types
You're waiting on
Everything Now (Continued) lyrics - Arcade Fire
I'm in the black again
Not coming back again
We can just pretend
We'll make it home again
From everything now
I'm in the red again
Red space in my head again
We can just pretend
We'll make it home again
From everything now
Baby Mine lyrics - Arcade Fire
(from "Dumbo" soundtrack)
[Régine Chassagne:]
Baby mine, don't you cry
Baby mine, dry your eyes
Rest your head close to my heart
Never to part, baby of mine
[Win Butler:]
Little one when you play
Don't you mind what they say
Let your eyes sparkle and shine
Never a tear, baby of mine
If they knew all about you
They'd end up loving you, too
All those same people who scold you
What they'd give just for the right to hold you
From your head to your toes
You're not much, heaven knows
But you are so precious to me
Sweet as can be, baby of mine
Oh, baby of mine
Oh, baby of mine
Oh, baby of mine
Cold Wind lyrics - Arcade Fire
In the middle of the summer
I'm not sleeping cold wind blowing
In the middle of the night
They try to find me but I'm still driving
If you're going to San Francisco
Lay some flowers on the grave stone
There's music on the station
And I'm just listening to cold wind whistling
And if they ever find me
Tell the papers cold wind, cold wind
Cold, cold wind blowing
Cold wind blowing
Hey hey hey
Something ain't right
Something ain't right
And if they ever find me
Tell the papers cold wind, cold wind
Cold, cold wind blowing
Cold wind blowing
Cold wind blowing
Cold wind blowing
Cold wind blowing
Generation A lyrics - Arcade Fire
This is Generation A and we're not gonna wait!
They say wait a little longer
And the times are gonna change
They say wait until tomorrow
Yesterday is always strange
They say wait until you're older
And you will understand
They say the generation's coming
But I don't think they understand
That I am not a patient man
I can't wait
I can't wait
Too little, too late
Too little, too late
(Wait)
They say wait until you're ready (Wait)
Wait until your number's called (Wait)
They say "Wait, all we need is love"
But darling, California's burning
New Orleans is waiting for the flood
I can't wait
I can't wait
Too little, too late
(They think they can take us)
Too little, too late
I can't wait
I can't wait
Too little, too late
It's too little, too late
This ain't the summer of love
This is the summer of rock
Racist running, cities burning
Children show you what they're learning
Whole world finally fade away
Walk like generation A
I can't wait
I can't wait
Too little, too late
Too little, too late
They think they can take us
I can't wait
I can't wait
Too little, too late
It's too little, too late

Watch me now

Surf City Eastern Bloc lyrics - Arcade Fire
It's a shame about the roadblock
We're afraid that we'll get caught or stopped
Let's go right now, surf city eastern block
I'm in the trunk, my surfboard on top
The eighties ain't been kind to anyone
I just want to find myself some sun
It's 1984, I'm on the run
Goodbye Berlin, hello Autobahn
It's a shame about the roadblock
If they catch us we won't ever talk
Let's go right now, surf city eastern block
I'm in the trunk when the inspector knocks

Reflektor lyrics - The Arcade Fire
Trapped in a prison,
in a prism of light.
Alone in the darkness,
a darkness of white.
We fell in love,
alone on a stage,
in the reflective age.
Entre la nuit, la nuit et l'aurore.
Entre le royaume des vivants et des morts.
[Translation: "Between the night, the night and the dawn. Between the realm of the living and the dead."]
If this is heaven,
I don't know what it's for.
If I can't find you there,
I don't care.
I thought I found a way to enter;
it was just a reflector. (Just a reflector)
I thought I found the connector;
it was just a reflector. (Just a reflector)
Now the signals we send
are deflected again.
We're so connected,
but are we even friends?
We fell in love when I was 19,
and now we're staring at a screen.
Entre la nuit, la nuit et l'aurore.
Entre le royaume des vivants et des morts.
If this is heaven,
I need something more.
Just a place to be alone,
cause you're my home.
I thought I found a way to enter;
it was just a reflector. (Just a reflector)
I thought I found the connector;
it was just a reflector. (Just a reflector)
Just a reflector.
It's just a reflector, just a reflector.
It's just a reflector, just a reflector.
Just a reflector, reflector.
Just a reflector. [repeat x 7]
Just a reflection of a reflection
of a reflection of a reflection of a reflection (ah!),
but I see you on the other side.
We all got things to hide.
Just a reflection of a reflection
of a reflection of a reflection of a reflection (ah!),
but I see you on the other side.
We all got things to hide.
(Alright let's go back.)
Our song it skips
on little silver disks.
Our love is plastic,
and they break it to bits.
I want to break free,
but will they break me
down, down down,
don't mess around.
I thought I found a way to enter;
it was just a reflector. (Just a reflector)
I thought I found the connector;
it was just a reflector. (Just a reflector)
It's just a reflector. [repeat]
Thought you were praying to the resurrector;
turns out it was just a reflector. (Just a reflector)
Thought you were praying to the resurrector;
turns out it was just a reflector. (Just a reflector)
Thought you were praying to the resurrector;
turns out it was just a reflector. (Just a reflector)
Just a reflector.
Just a reflector.
Just a reflector.
But I see you on the other side.
Just a reflector.
(Ah!)
But I see you on the other side. (Reflector)
We all got things to hide. (Reflector)
Just a reflector.
But I see you on the other side.
We Exist lyrics - The Arcade Fire
They're walking around
Head full of sound
Acting like
We don't exist
They walk in the room
And stare right through you
Talking like
We don't exist
But we exist
Daddy it's true
I'm different from you
But tell me why they treat me like this?
If you turned away
What would I say?
Not the first betrayed by a kiss
Maybe it's true
They're staring at you
When you walk in the room
Tell 'em it's fine
Stare if you like
Just let us through
Just let us through
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
They're down on their knees
Begging us please
Praying that we don't exist
Daddy it's fine
I'm used to 'em now
But tell me why they treat me like this?
It's cause we do it like this
Maybe it's true
They're staring at you
When you walk in the room
Tell 'em it's fine
Stare if you like
Just let us through
Just let us through
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Let 'em stare, let 'em stare!
If that's all they can do!
But I'd lose my heart
If I turn away from you
Oh Daddy don't turn away
You know that I'm so scared
But will you watch me drown?
You know we're going nowhere
We know that we're young
And no shit we're confused
But will you watch us drown?
What are you so afraid to lose?
Down on my knees
Begging us please
Praying that we don't exist
You're down on your knees
Begging us please
Praying that we don't exist
But we exist
We exist
We exist
We exist
Maybe if you hang together
You can make the changes in our hearts
And if you hang together, you can change us
Just where should you start?
Flashbulb Eyes lyrics - The Arcade Fire
[Verse]
What if the camera
Really do
Take your soul
Oh no
What if the camera
Really do
Take your soul
Oh no
[Chorus]
Hit me with your flashbulb eyes!
Hit me with your flashbulb eyes!
You know I've got nothing to hide
You know I got nothing
No I got... nothing
[Verse]
[Chorus x2]
Here Comes The Night Time lyrics - The Arcade Fire
When the sun goes down
When the sun goes down you head inside
'Cause the lights don't work
Yeah nothing works they say you don't mind
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
And the missionaries
They tell us we will be left behind
Been left behind
A thousand times, a thousand times
If you want to be righteous
If you want to be righteous, get in line
'Cause here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night
Here comes the night time
Look out, here comes the night time!
They say, heaven's a place
Yeah, heaven's a place and they know where it is
But you know where it is?
It's behind the gate, they won't let you in
And when they hear the beat, coming from the street, they lock the door
But if there's no music up in heaven, then what's it for?
When I hear the beat, my spirit's on me like a live-wire
A thousand horses running wild in a city on fire
But it starts in your feet, then it goes to your head
If you can't feel it, then the roots are dead
And if you're the judge, then what is our crime?
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night!
Here comes the night!
Look out, here comes the night!
Here comes the night!
Here comes the night!
Here comes the night, the night, the night, the night time!
Now the preachers they talk
Up on the satellite
If you're looking for Hell, just try looking inside
Here comes the night time, the night time
Here comes the night time, the night time
Here comes the night time, the night time
Here comes the night time, the night time
Here comes the night time, the night time
When you look in the sky, just try looking inside
God knows what you might find
When you look in the sky, just try looking inside
God knows what you might find
Here comes the night time
Normal Person lyrics - The Arcade Fire
Oh man
Do you like Rock and Roll music?
‘Cause I don’t know if I do
Is anything as strange as a normal person?
Is anyone as cruel as a normal person?
Waiting after school for you
They want to know if you
If you're normal too
Well, are you?
Are you?
I'm so confused. Am I a normal person?
You know, I can't tell if I'm a normal person
It's true, I think I'm cool enough, but am I cruel enough?
Am I cruel enough for you?
And they will break you down
Till everything is normal now
I know
And they will break you down
Till everything is normal now
I know
They take their tea at two
All the normal people, they do
They burn the jungle down
While they were sleeping, it grew
You dream in English now
In proper English, look how
You're just the same as me
It's through
And they will break you down
Till everything is normal now
I know
And they will break you down
Till everyone is normal now
I know
If that's what's normal now
I don't want to know
If that's what's normal now
Mama don't make me go
When they get excited, they try to hide it
Look at those normals go
When they get excited, they try to hide it
Look at those normals go
When they get excited, they try to hide it
Look at those normals go
When they get excited, they try to hide it... No!
And they will break you down
Till everything is normal now
I know
And they will break you down
Till everyone is normal now
I know
If that's what's normal now
I don't want to know
If that's what's normal now
Maybe if you hang together
You can make the changes in our hearts
And if you hang together
You can change us, just where should you start?
I've never really ever met a normal person
I've never really ever met a normal person
I've never really ever met a normal person
I've never really ever met a normal person... like you!
How do you do?
How do you do?
You Already Know lyrics - The Arcade Fire
[Intro sample]
Arcade Fire!
[Verse 1]
Sometimes it moves so fast
Sometimes it moves so fast
If you stop to ask
It's already passed
So how can you move so slow?
How can you move so slow?
You miss it if you don't
You miss it if you
[Chorus]
Don't already know
Already know
Already know
Already know
Already know
[Verse 2]
When your love is right
When your love is right
You can't sleep at night
You've been sleeping just fine
But when your love is bad
When your love is bad
I don't know why you're so sad
But it's time to go
[Chorus]
You already know
Already know

You already know
Oh, it's time to go
She said
"Well how do I know

Well then he said
"Well how do I know
When I know
When I know?"
(You already know)
She said
"Well how do I know
When I know
When I know?"...

Haha, haha

Joan Of Arc lyrics - The Arcade Fire
You're the one that they used to hate
But they like you now
And everything that goes away
Will be returned somehow
They're the ones that spit on you
Cause they got no heart
I'm the one that will follow you
You're my Joan of Arc
Joan of Arc
You had a vision they couldn't see so
They put you down
But everything that you said would happen
It came around
And they're the ones that put you down
Cause they got no heart
But I'm the one that will follow you
You're my Joan of Arc
[Chorus 1]
Joan of Arc (Jeanne d'Arc)
Tell the boys their time is through
Joan of Arc (Jeanne d'Arc, ah ooh)
Tell the boys I'll follow you
I'll follow you
Now they tell you that you're their muse
Yeah, they're so inspired
But where were they when they called your name
And they lit the fire?
When the voices came, you cut your hair
But you're still confused
But I'm the one with a heavy heart
Cause I'll follow you
[Chorus 2]
My Joan of Arc (Jeanne d'Arc, ah ooh)
Tell the boys their time is through
Joan of Arc (Jeanne d'Arc, ah ooh)
Tell the boys I'll follow you
Joan of Arc (Jeanne d'Arc, ah ooh)
When the boys are over you
Joan of Arc (Jeanne d'Arc, ah ooh)
Tell the boys I'll follow you
I'll follow you
I really wanna know you
[Regine Chassagne]
Tu dis que tu es mon juge
Mais je ne te crois pas
Alors tu dis que je suis une sainte
Mais ce n'est pas moi
J'entends des voix
Mais ce n'est pas moi
Je ne suis pas Jeanne d'Arc
And if you shoot you better hit your mark
[Chorus 2]
Joan, it's true
I only wanna know you
Joan, it's true, it's true
I only wanna know you
But Joan
I only wanna know you
First they love you
Then they kill you
Then they love you again
And then they love you
Then they kill you
Then they love you again
Love love love you
Kill kill kill you
And then they love you again
They love love love you
Kill kill kill you
And then they love you again
Here Comes The Night Time II lyrics - The Arcade Fire
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
I hurt myself again
Along with all my friends
Feels like it never ends
Here comes the night again
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
You hurt yourself again
Along with all your friends
Feels like it never ends
Here comes the night again
Here comes the night time
Coming on slow
Here comes the night time
I know that you know
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
I hurt myself again
Along with all my friends
Feels like it never ends
Here comes the night again
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night time
Here comes the night
Awful Sound (Oh Eurydice) lyrics - The Arcade Fire
You and I were born in a little town
Before the awful sound started coming down
Oh no, oh
You came home from school and knew you had to run
Please stop running now, just let me be the one for you
I know you can see things that we can't see
But when I say I love you, your silence covers me
Oh, Eurydice, it's an awful sound
I was so disappointed you didn't want me
Oh, how could it be, Eurydice?
I was standing beside you by a frozen sea
Will you ever get free?
Just take all your pain, just put it on me
So that you can breathe
When you fly away will you hit the ground?
It's an awful sound
I know there's a way, we can make them pay
Think it over and say, "I'm never going back again"
I know there's a way, we can leave today
Think it over and say, "I'm never going back again"
You were born in the little town
Before the awful sound started coming down
There's so much inside you that you won't let me see
You fly away from me, but it's an awful sound when you hit the ground
It's an awful sound when you hit the ground
I know there's a way, we can make them pay
Think it over and say, "I'm never going back again"
I know there's a way, we can leave today
Think it over
We know there's a price to pay for love in a reflective age
I met you up upon a stage, our love in a reflective age
Oh no, now you're gone
It's Never Over (Oh Orpheus) lyrics - The Arcade Fire
Hey, Orpheus!
I'm behind you
Don't turn around
I can find you
Just wait until it's over
Wait until it's through
And if I call for you
Oh, Orpheus!
Just sing for me all night
We'll wait until it's over
Wait until it's through
You say it's not me, it's you
Hey, Orpheus!
De l'autre côté de l'eau
Comme un écho
Just wait until it's over
Wait until it's through
And if I shout for you
Never doubt
Don't turn around too soon
Just wait until it's over
Wait until it's through
It seems so important now
But you will get over
It seems so important now
But you will get over
And when you get over
When you get older
Then you will remember
Why it was so important then
Seems like a big deal now
But you will get over
Seems like a big deal now
But you will get over
When you get over
And when you get older
Then you will discover
That it's never over
Hey, Eurydice!
Can you see me?
I will sing your name
Till you're sick of me
Just wait until it's over
Just wait until it's through
But if you call for me
This frozen sea
It melts beneath me
Just wait until it's over
Wait until it's through
Seems like a big deal now
But you will get over
Seems like a big deal now
But you will get over
And when you get over
And when you get older
Then you will remember
He told you he'd wake you up
When it was over
He told you he'd wake you up
When it was over
Now that it's over
Now that you're older
Then you will discover
That it's never over
It's never over (it's never over) [8x]
Sometime (Sometime)
Sometime (Sometime)
Boy, they're gonna eat you alive (eat you alive)
But it's never gonna happen now
We'll figure it out somehow
Sometime (Sometime)
Sometime (Sometime)
Boy, they're gonna eat you alive (eat you alive)
But it's never gonna happen now
We'll figure it out somehow
Cause it's never over
It's never over (it's never over) [6x]
We stood beside
A frozen sea
I saw you out
In front of me
Reflected light
A hollow moon
Oh Orpheus, Eurydice
It's over too soon
Porno lyrics - The Arcade Fire
Take the makeup off your eyes
I've got to see you, hear your sacred sighs
Before the break up, comes the silence
I'm talking to you. You say you're over it,
But I know
I thought I knew you. You thought you knew me
But now that you do, it's not so easy now
That I know
You can cry; I won't go. You can scream; I won't go
Every man that you know would have run at the word go
Little boys with their porno, oh, I know they hurt you so
They don't know what we know. Never know what we know
And all your makeup, just take it all off
I've got to find you before the line is lost
I know I hurt you, I won't deny it
When I reach for you, you say, "I'm over it."
But I know
You can cry; I won't go. You can scream; I won't go
Every man that you know would have run at the word go
Little boys with their porno, oh, I know they hurt you so
They don't know what I know. It's so little that we know
But the cup it overflows. Little boys with their porno
This is their world, where can we go?
Makes me feel like something's wrong with me
Makes me feel like something's wrong with me
Can you see me?
You can cry; I won't go. You can scream; I won't go
Little boys with their porno. Little boys with their porno
Makes me feel like something's wrong. It's the only world we know
Yeah, something's wrong. Little boys with their porno
And boys they learn some selfish shit until the girl won't put up with it
On and on and on we go. I just have to know. I'm not over it
I'm not over it
So love is real like a disease.
Come on tell me please,
I'm not over it
I'm not over it
Afterlife lyrics - The Arcade Fire
Afterlife
Oh my God, what an awful word
After all the breath and the dirt and the fires are burnt
And after all this time, and after all the ambulances go
And after all the hangers-on are done hanging on in the dead lights
Of the afterglow
I've gotta know...
Can we work it out?
If we scream and shout, 'till we work it out
Can we just work it out?
Scream and shout till we work it out
Till we work it out, till we work it out
Till we work it out, till we work it out
Afterlife
I think I saw what happens next
Oh, it was just a glimpse of you, like looking through a window
Or a shallow sea
Could you see me?
And after all this time
It's like nothing else we used to know
And after all the hangers-on are done hanging on in the dead lights
Of the afterglow
I've gotta know...
Can we work it out?
If we scream and shout, till we work it out
Can we just work it out?
Scream and shout till we work it out?
But you say, "Oh, when love is gone
Where does it go?"
And you say,
"Oh, when love is gone
Where does it go?"
And where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
And after this
Can it last another night?
After all the bad advice
That had nothing at all to do with life
I've gotta know...
Can we work it out?
If we scream and shout, till we work it out
Can we just work it out?
Scream and shout till we work it out?
But you say,
"Oh, when love is gone
Where does it go?"
And you say,
"Oh, when love is gone
Where does it go?"
We know it's gone
But where did it go?
And where do we go?
Is this the afterlife?
It's just an afterlife with you.
It's just an afterlife.
It's just an afterlife.
It's just an afterlife with you.
It's just an afterlife.
It's just an afterlife.
Supersymmetry lyrics - The Arcade Fire
I know you're living in my mind
It's not the same as being alive
I know you're living in my mind
It's not the same as being alive
Supersymmetry
Supersymmetry
If telling the truth is not polite
Then I guess you'll have to fight
If telling the truth is not polite
Then I guess we'll have to fight
Supersymmetry
Supersymmetry
Supersymmetry
Supersymmetry
I lived for a year, in the bed by the window
Reading books, better than memories
Wanna feel the seasons passing
Wanna feel the spring
Of supersymmetry
Supersymmetry
Supersymmetry
Supersymmetry
It's been a while since I've been to see you
I don't know where, but you're not with me
Heard a voice, like an echo
But it came from me
Supersymmetry
Supersymmetry (supersymmetry)
Supersymmetry (supersymmetry)
Supersymmetry (supersymmetry)
Ah, lalala lala
Ah, lalala lala
Ah, lalala lala
Ah, lalala lala
Supersymmetry

Apocrypha lyrics - The Arcade Fire
I said I wanna be born
Born again
But not right now
Please don't take me there
But God said,
Son, it's time to go
But when you'll return
I don't know just yet
But even stars they die when they get old
The precious ones that we used to hold
So if you gonna shoot you better hit your mark
Send that arrow,
Sent it through my heart
My heart
You said,
This time, I won't get turned away
This time, I won't get turned away
This time, I won't get turned away
You said
Well, Joan of Arc
I walk in the dark
She said,
I've seen how the world ends
First they love you
Then they kill you
Then they'll love you again, and again
Again
She said,
This time, I won't get turned away
This time, I won't get turned away
This time, I won't get turned away
[Repeat]
But Jesus Christ
What did you do
To deserve what they done to you?
[Repeat]
We're coming downtown
See what we got
We got the right
[Repeat]
We know something ain't right
We know something ain't right
I said
Going downtown
See what we got
We got the right
We got the right
Women Of A Certain Age lyrics - The Arcade Fire
Women of a certain age
Made to feel they gotta change
Some of them change their faces
But they don't smile the same
Some of them take night courses
Some of them get divorces
As the world gets strange
It's time for a change
Go and let your men get strange markings
Go and let the world get strange
Never change
Women own the world tonight
'Cause all the boys, they just wanna fight
And women of the world are born
To all the boys little wars
Mother, sister, daughter
The boys, they just can't father
It's time to take the ranks
When it's away from the strange
Go and let your men get strange markings
Go and let the world get strange
But never change
Never change
Never change
Soft Power lyrics - The Arcade Fire
Soft power got them so upset.
They think it's over.
But it's not done yet.
Soft power in the underground
Gonna let the wind
Blow the shit all around.
Well,
Soft power gets into our brains
Soft power now it's never going to be the same
All your voices in the streets tonight
Soft power
It's alright
All your power makes the world go round
You can cut the speakers
You can cut all the sounds.
But can you hear us
Singing our song?
Soft power
Now it's coming on strong
Soft power gets into our brains
Soft power now it's never going to be the same
All your voices in the streets tonight
Soft power
It's alright
Soft power
Look at them go
Soft power
They're about to explode
Soft power
In the Underworld
Soft power
Every boy and girl
We were born
So it's our right
You can cut all the power
You can cut all the lights
But we can see you even in the dark
Your words are fire
And we are the spark
Well
Soft power gets into our brains
Soft power now it's never, ever going to be the same
All your voices in the streets tonight
Soft power
It's not alright
Soft power
Look at them go
Soft power
They're about to explode
Soft power
In the Underworld
Soft power
Every boy and girl
Call a doctor
when it's not alright
Call a doctor
Cause it's not alright
Call a doctor
It's not alright
Call a doctor
Cause it's not alright
Well.
We'd love to help you
But we're not home.
Leave a message:
It's impossible now.
We'd love to help you
But we're not home.
Leave a message:
It's impossible now.
We'd love to help you
But we're not home.
Leave a message:
It's impossible now.
(Here we go...)
Get Right lyrics - The Arcade Fire
Better get right
Before you die
Better get right
[3x]
'Cause you can't take it down with you
Where you're going to
No, you can't take it down with you
Where you're going to
And forever (ever) is longer than you could ever
Yeah, forever (ever) is longer than you could ever
Imagine
Better get right (right)
Better get right (right)
Crucified Again lyrics - The Arcade Fire
On the twelfth of January
You don't need what you can't carry
The blood will flow into the ocean
The voices breaking with the motion
Crucified
Then crucified again
Crucified
Then crucified again
In the night, they started singin'
They had no right to keep believin'
But down bellow, there's someone screamin'
A broken church, no bells a-ringin'
They crucified
Then crucified again
They crucified
Then crucified again
Crucified again
Crucified again
The preachers talk on television
Hand out the judgments of their religion
But when I heard those women singin'
They made a sound I couldn't believe in
Crucified
Then crucified again
He who strikes the blow forgets it
But he who bears the scar remembers
The fire is burnin' down to embers
The fire is burnin', but I can't remember
Crucified
Then crucified again
Crucified
Then crucified again
Crucified again
Crucified again
Crucified again, and again, and again
All you great and mighty nations
Who think you've payed for your high stations
The cities may be built in the sand
But ours were built by their fathers' hands
They crucified
Then crucified again
They crucified
Then crucified again
Crucified again
Crucified again
Crucified again, and again, and again
Till the crowd cries
Do it again
[Repeat]
Crucified again
Crucified again
Culture War lyrics - Arcade Fire
Now the future's staring at me
like a vision from the past,
and I know these crumbs they sold me,
they're never gonna last.
Though we know the culture war,
we don't know what it's for but
we've lived the southern strategy.
You know it's never gonna last,
so keep it in the past.
These are different times that we're living in.
These are different times.
Now the kids are growing up so fast.
Paying for our crimes.
You left while I was sleepin'.
You said, "It's down to me".
Oh I've read a little Bible.
You see what you want to see.
Oh, we know the culture war,
we don't know what it's for but
we've lived your southern strategy.
You know it's never gonna last
so keep that shit in the past.
These are different times that we're living in.
'Cause these are different times.
Now the kids are growing up so fast.
They're paying for our crimes.
The dominos they never fell
but bodies they still burn.
Throw my hand into the fire
but still I never learn,
will I ever learn?
That these are different times.
Now the kids are growing up so fast
and paying for our crimes.
We'll be soldiers for you, mommy and daddy,
in your culture war.
We'll be soldiers for you, mommy and daddy,
but we don't know what it's for.
We're soldiers now in the culture war.
We're soldiers now, but we don't know what it's for.
We're soldiers now in the culture war.
We're soldiers now, but we don't know what it's for.
So tell me what's it for.
You want it? You got it, here's your culture war.
You want it? Now you've got it, so tell me what's it for.
like a vision from the past,
and I know these crumbs they sold me,
they're never gonna last.
Though we know the culture war,
we don't know what it's for but
we've lived the southern strategy.
You know it's never gonna last,
so keep it in the past.
These are different times that we're living in.
These are different times.
Now the kids are growing up so fast.
Paying for our crimes.
You left while I was sleepin'.
You said, "It's down to me".
Oh I've read a little Bible.
You see what you want to see.
Oh, we know the culture war,
we don't know what it's for but
we've lived your southern strategy.
You know it's never gonna last
so keep that shit in the past.
These are different times that we're living in.
'Cause these are different times.
Now the kids are growing up so fast.
They're paying for our crimes.
The dominos they never fell
but bodies they still burn.
Throw my hand into the fire
but still I never learn,
will I ever learn?
That these are different times.
Now the kids are growing up so fast
and paying for our crimes.
We'll be soldiers for you, mommy and daddy,
in your culture war.
We'll be soldiers for you, mommy and daddy,
but we don't know what it's for.
We're soldiers now in the culture war.
We're soldiers now, but we don't know what it's for.
We're soldiers now in the culture war.
We're soldiers now, but we don't know what it's for.
So tell me what's it for.
You want it? You got it, here's your culture war.
You want it? Now you've got it, so tell me what's it for.
Speaking In Tongues lyrics - Arcade Fire
Hypocrite reader,
My double, my brother
Your daddy really took it out of you
But did he speak it in tongues?
But did he speak it in tongues?
Sneaking out the windows now
You've got the spirit now
Hypocrite reader,
My double, my brother
Where did we lose our way?
It's like we're speaking in tongues
It's like we're speaking in tongues
Sneaking out the windows now
You've got the spirit now
You've got the spirit now
You've got the spirit now
Hypocrite reader,
My double, my brother
Now I can't understand a word
Now you're speaking in tongues
(Speaking in tongues)
Now you're speaking in tongues
(Speaking in tongues)
Now you're speaking in tongues
(Speaking in tongues)
Now you're speaking in tongues
(Speaking in tongues)
Come out of your head
And into my world now
Come out of your head
And into my world, my world, my world now
(Speaking in tongues)
(To end)
My double, my brother
Your daddy really took it out of you
But did he speak it in tongues?
But did he speak it in tongues?
Sneaking out the windows now
You've got the spirit now
Hypocrite reader,
My double, my brother
Where did we lose our way?
It's like we're speaking in tongues
It's like we're speaking in tongues
Sneaking out the windows now
You've got the spirit now
You've got the spirit now
You've got the spirit now
Hypocrite reader,
My double, my brother
Now I can't understand a word
Now you're speaking in tongues
(Speaking in tongues)
Now you're speaking in tongues
(Speaking in tongues)
Now you're speaking in tongues
(Speaking in tongues)
Now you're speaking in tongues
(Speaking in tongues)
Come out of your head
And into my world now
Come out of your head
And into my world, my world, my world now
(Speaking in tongues)

My Buddy lyrics - Arcade Fire
The night is long since you went away
I dream about you all through the day
My buddy, my buddy, no buddy quite so true.
(Hey that's a wrong note,
And that's a wrong note,
And tune up that G string,
And that's better, that's better, that's better)
Miss your voice, the touch of your hand
I long to know that you understand
My buddy, my buddy, your buddy misses you
I dream about you all through the day
My buddy, my buddy, no buddy quite so true.
(Hey that's a wrong note,
And that's a wrong note,
And tune up that G string,
And that's better, that's better, that's better)
Miss your voice, the touch of your hand
I long to know that you understand
My buddy, my buddy, your buddy misses you
Brazil lyrics - Arcade Fire
Brazil, where hearts were entertaining June
We stood beneath an amber moon
And softly whispered, "Someday soon"
We kissed and clung together
Then - tomorrow was another day
The morning found us miles away
With still a million things to say
And now, the twilight moves the skies above
Recalling thrills of our love
There's one thing I'm certain of
Return, I will, to old Brazil
Brazil, where hearts were entertaining June
We stood beneath an amber moon
And softly whispered, "Someday soon"
We kissed and clung together
Then - tomorrow was another day
The morning found us miles away
With still a million things to say
And now when twilight moves the skies above
Recalling thrills of our love
There's one thing I'm certain of
Return, I will, to old Brazil
We stood beneath an amber moon
And softly whispered, "Someday soon"
We kissed and clung together
Then - tomorrow was another day
The morning found us miles away
With still a million things to say
And now, the twilight moves the skies above
Recalling thrills of our love
There's one thing I'm certain of
Return, I will, to old Brazil
Brazil, where hearts were entertaining June
We stood beneath an amber moon
And softly whispered, "Someday soon"
We kissed and clung together
Then - tomorrow was another day
The morning found us miles away
With still a million things to say
And now when twilight moves the skies above
Recalling thrills of our love
There's one thing I'm certain of
Return, I will, to old Brazil
Abraham's Daughter lyrics - The Arcade Fire
[from "The Hunger Games" soundtrack]
Abraham took Isaac's hand and led him to the lonesome hill.
While his daughter hid and watched,
She dare not breathe, she was so still.
Just as an angel cried for the slaughter,
Abraham's daughter raised her voice.
Then the angel asked her what her name was,
She said, "I have none."
Then he asked, "How can this be?"
"My father never gave me one."
And with his sword up, raised for the slaughter,
Abraham's daughter raised her bow.
"How darest you, child, defy your father?"
"You better let young Isaac go."
Abraham took Isaac's hand and led him to the lonesome hill.
While his daughter hid and watched,
She dare not breathe, she was so still.
Just as an angel cried for the slaughter,
Abraham's daughter raised her voice.
Then the angel asked her what her name was,
She said, "I have none."
Then he asked, "How can this be?"
"My father never gave me one."
And with his sword up, raised for the slaughter,
Abraham's daughter raised her bow.
"How darest you, child, defy your father?"
"You better let young Isaac go."
Alligator Mine lyrics - The Arcade Fire
Run run run run run run run away
Run run run run run run run away from me from me
You breath like airs a tourist in your heart babe
When colder weather comes you'll just suffocate
You kiss like love's a tourist in your heart babe
When colder weather comes you just disappear from me
But I cant wait to have your sweet love again before you
Run run run run run run run away
Run run run run run run run away from me from me
You breath like airs a tourist in your heart babe
When colder weather comes you'll just suffocate
You kiss like love's a tourist in your heart babe
When colder weather comes you just disappear from me
But I cant wait to have your sweet love again
You're cold blooded, stealin' my sunlight
You're cold blooded alligator mine
You're cold blooded, stealin' my sunlight
You're cold blooded alligator mine
You run away again my
I wont stay alligator mine
Run run run run run run run away from me from me
You breath like airs a tourist in your heart babe
When colder weather comes you'll just suffocate
You kiss like love's a tourist in your heart babe
When colder weather comes you just disappear from me
But I cant wait to have your sweet love again before you
Run run run run run run run away
Run run run run run run run away from me from me
You breath like airs a tourist in your heart babe
When colder weather comes you'll just suffocate
You kiss like love's a tourist in your heart babe
When colder weather comes you just disappear from me
But I cant wait to have your sweet love again
You're cold blooded, stealin' my sunlight
You're cold blooded alligator mine
You're cold blooded, stealin' my sunlight
You're cold blooded alligator mine
You run away again my
I wont stay alligator mine
Burning Bridges, Breaking Hearts lyrics - The arcade fire
Burning bridges, breaking hearts
Everything you taught us to do
We're burning bridges, and breaking hearts
No home to come home to
We're burning bridges, and breaking hearts
I won't look you in the eye
And burning bridges, breaking hearts
Caught you in a friendship lie
Took a visit, to your old house
The windows were all boarded up
Try to hold these, memories
The ocean in a paper cup
There's no future in this town
They barricade the buildings there
To the lion, you've been cast
Only bones are gonna last
There's a city, underground
There's a city made of glass
There's a city, underground
Hurry cause it's breaking fast
There's no future in this town
They barricade the buildings there
We're burning bridges and breaking hearts
No home to come home to
We're burning bridges
(and breaking hearts)
We're burning bridges
(and breaking hearts)
Burning bridges, breaking hearts
(breaking hearts)
Burning bridges, breaking hearts
Everything you taught us to do
We're burning bridges and breaking hearts
No home to come home to
We're burning bridges and breaking hearts
Everything you taught us to do
We're burning bridges and breaking hearts
No home to come home to
Everything you taught us to do
We're burning bridges, and breaking hearts
No home to come home to
We're burning bridges, and breaking hearts
I won't look you in the eye
And burning bridges, breaking hearts
Caught you in a friendship lie
Took a visit, to your old house
The windows were all boarded up
Try to hold these, memories
The ocean in a paper cup
There's no future in this town
They barricade the buildings there
To the lion, you've been cast
Only bones are gonna last
There's a city, underground
There's a city made of glass
There's a city, underground
Hurry cause it's breaking fast
There's no future in this town
They barricade the buildings there
We're burning bridges and breaking hearts
No home to come home to
We're burning bridges
(and breaking hearts)
We're burning bridges
(and breaking hearts)
Burning bridges, breaking hearts
(breaking hearts)
Burning bridges, breaking hearts
Everything you taught us to do
We're burning bridges and breaking hearts
No home to come home to
We're burning bridges and breaking hearts
Everything you taught us to do
We're burning bridges and breaking hearts
No home to come home to
Can't Let Go Of You lyrics - The Arcade Fire
Where we gonna go
I'm gassed up, I'm ready to go
Grab your jacket, Let's hit the road
We can't wait any longer, Let's go
She's looking out the window
And her baby starting to show
From five months ago
So keep driving, keep driving through the snow
I passed by my folks on side of the road, but I'm through it everyone
We can't let go, You can't let go of the wheel
And I pass by my friends on either end, But I'm through it all of them
I can't let go, We can't let go of the wheel
Hoping land for miles is Nebraska in my eye
And we still crystallize
Any longer any longer
Trees and power lines are all dressed in the ice
And we still crystallize
Keep moving keep moving through the eye
See the road swallow us whole, and we're still alive...
But I cant let go, I cant let go of the wheel
And water break on a burning wick and douse the flame kill her quiver
We cant let go, We cant let go of eachother
Shes crying saying it's nobody's fault, shes already a pillar of salt
We're too dissolved, we're too dissolved into the road
I'm gassed up, I'm ready to go
Grab your jacket, Let's hit the road
We can't wait any longer, Let's go
She's looking out the window
And her baby starting to show
From five months ago
So keep driving, keep driving through the snow
I passed by my folks on side of the road, but I'm through it everyone
We can't let go, You can't let go of the wheel
And I pass by my friends on either end, But I'm through it all of them
I can't let go, We can't let go of the wheel
Hoping land for miles is Nebraska in my eye
And we still crystallize
Any longer any longer
Trees and power lines are all dressed in the ice
And we still crystallize
Keep moving keep moving through the eye
See the road swallow us whole, and we're still alive...
But I cant let go, I cant let go of the wheel
And water break on a burning wick and douse the flame kill her quiver
We cant let go, We cant let go of eachother
Shes crying saying it's nobody's fault, shes already a pillar of salt
We're too dissolved, we're too dissolved into the road
Cars And Telephones lyrics - The arcade fire
I read the pages about me
In her autobiography
They were brief and to the point
Our flesh, while you are getting dressed
A memory that needs to be repressed
I'll just wait until it's over
Since you've gone away I never know just what to say
Since you've gone away I never know just what to say
Cause I like cars more than telephones
Your voice in my ear makes me feel so alone
Tonight I'm gonna drive, the silver moon is shining bright
Over the interstate, God saying hurry don't be late
Soon the sun will rise, that's when the romance dies
And I'm just tired of running around
I walked to get the mail today
I guess your letter never came
I'll just check again tomorrow
A flash while you are getting dressed
A memory that needs to be repressed
I'll just wait without saying a word
Since you've gone away I never know just what to say
Since you've gone away I never know just what to say
Cause I like cars more than telephones
Your voice in my ear makes me feel so alone
Tonight I'm gonna drive, the silver moon is shining bright
Over the interstate, God saying hurry don't be late
Soon the sun will rise, that's when the romance dies
And I'm just tired of running around
But fuck it, I love you even if, I'm gonna feel like shit
By the time I get to you, now the sky is turning blue
The stars they disappear one by one as the daylight nears
And yes you're in my head, but that doesn't make you here
And I've lost all my friends, but you're the one I miss the most
And now I'm almost there, yeah, I'm almost to the coast
And if I had any notion of how I'm gonna drive my car across
The Atlantic Ocean I'd be fucking set
In her autobiography
They were brief and to the point
Our flesh, while you are getting dressed
A memory that needs to be repressed
I'll just wait until it's over
Since you've gone away I never know just what to say
Since you've gone away I never know just what to say
Cause I like cars more than telephones
Your voice in my ear makes me feel so alone
Tonight I'm gonna drive, the silver moon is shining bright
Over the interstate, God saying hurry don't be late
Soon the sun will rise, that's when the romance dies
And I'm just tired of running around
I walked to get the mail today
I guess your letter never came
I'll just check again tomorrow
A flash while you are getting dressed
A memory that needs to be repressed
I'll just wait without saying a word
Since you've gone away I never know just what to say
Since you've gone away I never know just what to say
Cause I like cars more than telephones
Your voice in my ear makes me feel so alone
Tonight I'm gonna drive, the silver moon is shining bright
Over the interstate, God saying hurry don't be late
Soon the sun will rise, that's when the romance dies
And I'm just tired of running around
But fuck it, I love you even if, I'm gonna feel like shit
By the time I get to you, now the sky is turning blue

And now I'm almost there, yeah, I'm almost to the coast
And if I had any notion of how I'm gonna drive my car across

Lenin lyrics - The Arcade Fire
When Lenin was little
All the birds in the boat were singing, "Man this is it"
Now that he's older
All the sailors in heaven are singing up and shit
I know it can't be right
I know it can't be right
But I just smile instead
Of repeating what I say in my head
When Lenin was little
He stung like a vampire on all hollows eve
All the saints of heaven
Looking down at the leaves falling off the tree
I know it can't be right
I know it can't be right
But I just smile instead
Of repeating what I say
Daddy, daddy, please spare the world
From the government
Daddy, daddy, please spare my soul
From my judgment
Daddy, daddy, please send me a heart
That is made of cement
'Cause the money's all been spent
Daddy, daddy, please spare the world
From the government
Daddy, daddy, please spare my soul
From my judgment
Daddy, daddy, please send me a heart
That is made of cement
'Cause the money's all been spent
The money's all been spent
The money's all been spent
The money's all been spent
All the birds in the boat were singing, "Man this is it"
Now that he's older
All the sailors in heaven are singing up and shit
I know it can't be right
I know it can't be right
But I just smile instead
Of repeating what I say in my head
When Lenin was little
He stung like a vampire on all hollows eve
All the saints of heaven
Looking down at the leaves falling off the tree
I know it can't be right
I know it can't be right
But I just smile instead
Of repeating what I say
Daddy, daddy, please spare the world
From the government
Daddy, daddy, please spare my soul
From my judgment
Daddy, daddy, please send me a heart
That is made of cement
'Cause the money's all been spent
Daddy, daddy, please spare the world
From the government
Daddy, daddy, please spare my soul
From my judgment
Daddy, daddy, please send me a heart
That is made of cement
'Cause the money's all been spent
The money's all been spent
The money's all been spent
The money's all been spent
Milk And Honey lyrics - The Arcade Fire
Sunlight loves me, feeds me milk and honey
Daytime misses me, feeds me milk and honey

The Year Is lyrics - The arcade fire
I see the lightning almost every day
I've stopped pretending its a bird of prey
My little brother's got a strange disease
he gives a name to everything he sees
ABC, DO RE MI, KKK, NAACP
USA, DOA, NYC, RIP
We heard the thunder on your daddy's farm
your momma said it was a fire alarm
the neighbors heard it and they started to run
we were deciding what to name our son
Let's call that son of a bitch
ABC, DO RE MI, KKK, NAACP
USA, DOA, NYC, RIP
The years is...
(shout out any year that comes into your head, its all the dark)
I've stopped pretending its a bird of prey
My little brother's got a strange disease
he gives a name to everything he sees

Virgin Mary Highway lyrics - The arcade fire
I lay on my back in the lake at night in the summer time trying to remember
Every last second, every last breath that I spent with you
The yellow dotted line, reflected in your eyes
You scream as the crickets fly in the open window
Please don't cry love
Come on babe, we both know that I'll stay
The Virgin Mary lives beside the highway
Let's go and see her
Let's ask her blessings today
We've both felt love before even if we deny it
That familiar feeling of believing that we'll die without it
But we never do, well not completely
Come on babe, we both know that I'll stay
The Virgin Mary lives beside the highway
Let's go and see her lets ask her blessings today
You know I'm adrift without you
Come on home, you know I still feel it
Yeah
You know I'm adrift without you
Come on home, you know I still feel it
Yeah
Every last second, every last breath that I spent with you
The yellow dotted line, reflected in your eyes
You scream as the crickets fly in the open window
Please don't cry love
Come on babe, we both know that I'll stay
The Virgin Mary lives beside the highway
Let's go and see her
Let's ask her blessings today
We've both felt love before even if we deny it
That familiar feeling of believing that we'll die without it
But we never do, well not completely
Come on babe, we both know that I'll stay
The Virgin Mary lives beside the highway
Let's go and see her lets ask her blessings today
You know I'm adrift without you
Come on home, you know I still feel it
Yeah
You know I'm adrift without you
Come on home, you know I still feel it
Yeah
William Pierce lyrics - The arcade fire
William Pierce Butler, my little brother
I know I treat you bad, I know I'm like our dad
When I get scared it's in the air
William Pierce come here, I know I'm insincere
When I am with my friends, love breaks it never ends
I'll love you when you're trapped in sin and doubt
Lets get out! lets get out!
William Pierce we're old, living far from home
Don't lose your light in a crowd, shining without a doubt
For all the world, for all the world and me to see
Don't follow me
Not me
Not me
Not me
I know I treat you bad, I know I'm like our dad
When I get scared it's in the air
William Pierce come here, I know I'm insincere
When I am with my friends, love breaks it never ends
I'll love you when you're trapped in sin and doubt
Lets get out! lets get out!
William Pierce we're old, living far from home
Don't lose your light in a crowd, shining without a doubt
For all the world, for all the world and me to see
Don't follow me
Not me
Not me
Not me

The Suburbs lyrics - the arcade fire
In the suburbs I
I learned to drive
And you told me we'd never survive
Grab your mother's keys we're leavin'
You always seemed so sure
That one day we'd fight in
In a suburban world
your part of town gets minor
So you're standin' on the opposite shore
But by the time the first bombs fell
We were already bored
We were already, already bored
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm movin' past the feeling
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm movin' past the feeling again
Kids wanna be so hard
But in my dreams we're still screamin' and runnin' through the yard
And all of the walls that they built in the seventies finally fall
And all of the houses they build in the seventies finally fall
Meant nothin' at all
Meant nothin' at all
It meant nothin
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm movin' past the feeling
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm movin' past the feeling and into the night
So can you understand?
Why I want a daughter while I'm still young
I wanna hold her hand
And show her some beauty
Before this damage is done
But if it's too much to ask, it's too much to ask
Then send me a son
Under the overpass
In the parking lot we're still waiting
It's already passed
So move your feet from hot pavement and into the grass
Cause it's already passed
It's already, already passed!
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm movin' past the feeling
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm movin' past the feeling again
I'm movin' past the feeling
I'm movin' past the feeling
In my dreams we're still screamin'
We're still screamin'
We're still screamin'
I learned to drive
And you told me we'd never survive
Grab your mother's keys we're leavin'
You always seemed so sure
That one day we'd fight in
In a suburban world
your part of town gets minor
So you're standin' on the opposite shore
But by the time the first bombs fell
We were already bored
We were already, already bored
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm movin' past the feeling
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm movin' past the feeling again
Kids wanna be so hard
But in my dreams we're still screamin' and runnin' through the yard
And all of the walls that they built in the seventies finally fall
And all of the houses they build in the seventies finally fall
Meant nothin' at all
Meant nothin' at all

Sometimes I can't believe it

We're still screamin'
We're still screamin'
Ready To Start lyrics - the arcade fire
If the businessmen drink my blood
Like the kids in art school said they would
Then I guess I'll just begin again
You say, "can we still be friends?"
If I was scared... I would
And if I was bored... you know I would
And if I was yours... but I'm not
All the kids have always known
That the emperor wears no clothes
But they bow to down to him anyway
It's better than being alone
If I was scared... I would
And if I was bored... you know I would
And if I was yours... but I'm not
Now you're knocking at my door
Saying please come out with us tonight
But I would rather be alone
Than pretend I feel alright
If the businessmen drink my blood
Like the kids in art school said they would
Then I guess I'll just begin again
You say, "can we still be friends?"
If I was scared... I would
And if I was pure... you know I would
And if I was yours... but I'm not
Now I'm ready to start
If I was scared... I would
And if I was pure... you know I would
And if I was yours... but I'm not
Now I'm ready to start
Now I'm ready to start
I would rather be wrong
Than live in the shadows of your song
My mind is open wide
And now I'm ready to start
Now I'm ready to start
My mind is open wide
And now I'm ready to start
And I'm sure you opened the door
To step out into the dark
Now I'm ready
Like the kids in art school said they would
Then I guess I'll just begin again
You say, "can we still be friends?"
If I was scared... I would
And if I was bored... you know I would
And if I was yours... but I'm not
All the kids have always known
That the emperor wears no clothes
But they bow to down to him anyway
It's better than being alone
If I was scared... I would
And if I was bored... you know I would
And if I was yours... but I'm not
Now you're knocking at my door
Saying please come out with us tonight
But I would rather be alone
Than pretend I feel alright
If the businessmen drink my blood
Like the kids in art school said they would
Then I guess I'll just begin again
You say, "can we still be friends?"
If I was scared... I would
And if I was pure... you know I would
And if I was yours... but I'm not
Now I'm ready to start
If I was scared... I would
And if I was pure... you know I would
And if I was yours... but I'm not
Now I'm ready to start
Now I'm ready to start
I would rather be wrong
Than live in the shadows of your song
My mind is open wide
And now I'm ready to start
Now I'm ready to start
My mind is open wide
And now I'm ready to start
And I'm sure you opened the door
To step out into the dark
Now I'm ready
