hear the horses



happiness hit her
like a train on a track
coming towards her
stuck still no turning back
she hid around corners
and she hid under beds
she killed it with kisses
and from it she fled
with every bubble
she sank with her drink
and washed it away
down the kitchen sink


leave all your longing
your loving
behind
you can't carry it with you
if you want to survive


dog days are over
florence and the machine

knee deep



i'm working on drawing
a straight line
and i'll draw
until i get one right
it's bold and dark, girl
can't you see
i done drawn a line
between you and me

backwards walk
frightened rabbit

know my cell

we sing the nightmare
of the lies that you speak

iron bars
iron heart
iron bars
everything


dull life
yeah yeah yeahs

leave me



louder
lips speak louder
better
back together
still it's a
sharp shock to your
soft side


softshock
yeah yeah yeahs

love left dry

frost or flame
skeleton me

fall asleep
spin the sky

skeleton me
love, don't cry


skeletons
yeah yeah yeahs

if i told you


well i sat on the patio
while the pianos were being tuned
forget about it all
for a little while
she don't mind
she don't care


liar
built to spill
