Tove Styrke - Borderline [NEW EP + VIDEO]

La charmante Tove Östman Styrke nous revient avec un nouveau clip tout frais! La jeune suédoise qui avait été repérée dans Sweden Idol en 2009 (dans lequel elle s'était hissée à la troisième place du podium) nous présente la vidéo de Borderline premier single de l'EP éponyme qui sortira le 23 novembre prochain.

Si jusque là son succès est resté relativement confidentiel (malgré de belles choses!) gageons que sa pop qui tire indifféremment vers la dance ou l'electro pop et n'hésite pas à se draper de rythmiques reggae va attirer les projecteurs avec cette nouvelle galette et la maturité qu'elle a acquise.

Pour borderline, soyons sûrs que la comparaison avec Selah Sue ne manquera pas de surgir ça et là. Quoi qu'il en soit, par ici on aime particulièrement! En bonus on se regarde High and Low (2011) sont plus gros carton jusque là. Et pour finir, p'tit coup d'oeil dans le rétro avec l'un de ses passages dans l'Idol suédois et sa reprise du In the gettho de Dolly Parton.



Les paroles de Borderline
The boys of the empire
They set head fire
Pull the plug sire
I'll spit fire

Gents of the empire
Strangle my desire
Pull the plug sire
And I'll spit fire

I'm borderline happy and I'm borderline sad
I'm borderline good and I'm borderline bad
And I can't get rid of a tingeling fear
You'd sort me out if my head gets clear
I live my life in shackles but I'm borderline free
I used to be blind and I still can't see
And I won't get around to a change of mind
As long as nobody breaks my stride

Tricks of the empire
Make happy kids aim higher
Higher up they wet fire
Fools of the empire

I went to school in the empire
Learnt the rules from a brat sire
I be a fool of the empire
'Til i break loose spread fire
Burn it down

I'm borderline happy and I'm borderline sad
I'm borderline good and I'm borderline bad
And I can't get rid of a tingeling fear
You'd sort me out if my head gets clear
I live my life in shackles but I'm borderline free
I used to be blind and I still can't see
And I won't get around to a change of mind
As long as nobody breaks my stride

Zhu - Paradise Awaits

"I'm born with this mighty sin 

Walking around just talking my shit 

conversation based around just sex 

words at the tip of my tongue 

Oh Damn Baby... "

Le mystérieux producteur Zhu nous offre le visuel de Paradise Awaits! Le titre fait partie de l'EP NightDay qui a créé le buzz autour de l'artiste cette année. On retiendra aussi sa campagne de street marketing minimaliste sur les murs de New York qui a fait monter la sauce autour de THE NIGHTDAY EXPERIENCE, sa première prestation live à venir!

En attendant on se regarde ce petit bijou de clip tout en animation qui vient habiller l'excellente house de Zhu et, en bonus on s'écoute le remix du titre par Rufus.

Sway Clarke II - Secret Garden ft. Tink [COUP DE COEUR]

Sway Clarke II nous a offert l'un des sons phares de la BO de notre été avec son Jardin Secret. Le chanteur originaire de Toronto (et qui vit dans la capitale la plus dynamique niveau musique, Berlin) accompagné de ligne de piano somme toute assez basique nous transporte dans son questionnement sur la fidélité... tout un programme! Le morceau qui était sorti  l'an dernier sur I don't need much, s'est bonifié d'un couplet supplémentaire de la female rapper de Chicago Tink G.

On laisse les grandes analyses sur le style et les comparaisons avec d'autres artistes (Frank Ocean en tête) aux grands chroniqueurs musicaux... en ce qui nous concerne, on se contentera de dire que l'on aime beaucoup et qu'on a hâte de le voir se produire sur Paris! En attendant on se regarde le clip et pour comprendre un peu de quoi'qu'ça'parle c'est plus bas.

Les paroles de Secret Garden 

Hey girlfriend…I know you asked a question

Like are you the only rose in my garden?

And I know this sounds contemptuous

And I'm sure it will affect us

But no, no, no

Please just beg my pardon

See

I got white ones, purple ones, red ones

Baby I got love to give, baby I got love to give

I got black ones, yellow ones, brown ones

Baby I got love to give, baby I got love to give

Hey best friend, I know you got some questions

Like when I start to grow my secret garden

Didn't happen on a weekend, but over different seasons

Toronto had me gold

I was young with no control

My heart was looking for

White ones, purple ones, red ones

Baby I got love to give, baby I got love to give

I got black ones, yellow ones, brown ones

Baby I got love to give, baby I got love to give

Momma always told me to guard my heart

Everything that smell good ain’t meant to be in your garden

Run wild and be free put the boys on your to do list

The only thing they wanna do is get between your tulips

Take you out of your element

Hold onto your innocence

When they come they’ll pick you up and have a handful in their other hand

Oh baby girl just give it to them and you’ll see it

If anything when that flower blooms, is dirt still underneath it

I got my daisy dukes on when you hit me like a stone

Wasn’t sure if you was good with all that poison in your heart

Whatchoo doing with that girl down south

He bought me roses on our first night out

I was shook up this was something I didn’t think I’d discover

I never knew that love came in so many different colors

He was sweet

He was calm

He was nothing like my mom said

What kind you got for me, he turned around and told me

I got white ones, purple ones, red ones

Baby I got love to give, baby I got love to give

I got black ones, yellow ones, brown ones

Baby I got love to give, baby I got love to give

I got white ones, purple ones, red ones

Baby I got love to give, baby I got love to give

I got black ones, yellow ones, brown ones

Baby I got love to give, baby I got love to give

The Juan MacLean - A Simple Design

"This is a song about being stuck, paralyzed and unable to move forward, 
the sort of self-imposed distress that causes you to take five years to make a new album"

Le duo formé de John MacLean et Nancy Whang (LCD Soundsystem) vient de sortir son très bon album, In a Dream, que l'on te recommande vivement! Deuxième single extrait de la galette A simple Design, l'un de nos morceaux préférés du LP, notamment pour son synthé très eighties, la BO parfaite de ce début de weekend ensoleillé....


Les paroles de A Simple Design:
It takes a lot of effort
To hold on to all your rules
It can take years to fight movement
It can take years off you!

Out I've been good intentions
While nothing a waiting game
It's been 3 years of then holding the wrath,
But holding on is something wrong

Time after time, when what you're hoping to find
Is not a SIMPLE DESIGN, but a headache
When everything you've built comes falling down
But if you open your mind to a slippery life
When that's look for the time
When that's ready
and everything you need falls to you!

If like to consider the measure
Measure the risk of reward
What makes you think they will love you?!
They just wanna love you more
Take up your sleep in giant
Wake up your terracell
They've let the path and you're well on your way
You'll FIGHT THIS TIME

Time after time, when what you're hoping to find
Is not a SIMPLE DESIGN, but a headache
and everything you've built comes falling down
But if you open your mind to a slippery life
When that's look for the time
When that's ready,
And everything you need falls to you!

Falls to you, falls to you
It's all on you
Falls to you, falls to you ready
It's all on you
Falls to you, falls to you ready
That's all on you, ready
Falls to you, falls to you ready
That's all on you, ready

Time after time, when what you're hoping to find
Is not a SIMPLE DESIGN, but a headache
When everything you've built comes falling down
But if you open your mind to a slippery life
When that's look for the time
When that's ready
And everything you need falls to you

Julien Doré feat. Micky Green - Chou Wasabi [NO COMMENT du jour]

Baby I love you less and less
Because of what you've done to me
Baby I love you less and less
Because of what you've done to me

Le ciel se couche
Sur ta peau de louve
Les oies sont rouges
Ta mémoire est trouble

On a vu l'Espagne
La rive et les larmes
L'amour a ses failles
Et ses coeurs nomades

Baby I love you less and less
Because of what you've done to me
Baby I love you less and less
Because of what you've done to me

I'll be your soul
Baby just don't let me go
I'll be your soul
Baby just don't let me go

Se promettre ma douce
L'Enfer et ses sources
Où les vipères rousses
Se meuvent en eaux troubles

Je deviens sauvage
Mon torse se décharne
Pour que Paris s'enflamme
De nos retrouvailles

Baby I love you less and less
Because of what you've done to me
Baby I love you less and less
Because of what you've done to me

Baby I love you less and less
Because of what you've done to me
Baby I love you less and less
Because of what you've done to me

We used to be, we used to be, we used to be,
we used to be very happy
What lies all night
Remember we feel so alive

Now all that there is
The sweet souvenir
I walked down on the river, I put my feet in the water
I remember I remember we used to come here together

I need you so,
Baby just don't let me go
I need you so,
Baby just don't let me go

Baby I Love you less and less
Baby I Love you less and less
Because of what you've done to me

Paolo Nutini - Let Me Down Easy [LIVE SESSION at Abbey Road Studios]

Encore un single tiré de l'excellentissime album de Paolo Nutini, Caustic Love. Le titre, qui a été produit par Dani Castelar et le chanteur lui même, s'offre en guise de clip une live session tournée dans les mythiques studios d'Abbey Road à Londres.

A noter: ne pas oublier de prendre les places pour son concert du 11 novembre au Bataclan (oui oui, déjà, au rythme ou ça va il devrait fermer le guichet très rapidement...).

Les paroles de Let Me Down Easy

Let me down easy
Though your love for me is gone
Let me down easy
Since you feel to stay is wrong

We are broken by others
But we mend ourselves
We take comfort in strangers
But I don't think it helps
If every fool were a clown
I would be a king and not a clown
Cause love can't be
Closer than our hands and our feet

But it's lost on me
Ohhhhh ohhhh
It's lost on me
Your love for me is wrong
Let me down easy
since you feel to stay is wrong
There was no sweeter fruit than this
With no taste of bitterness
It was so fresh and sweet before
But I can't taste it anymore

I was like a man with no candy
I had everything
But it's lost on me
Lost, lost on me, yeah

Your love for me is wrong
Let me down easy
Your love for me is gone
Let me down easy
Since you feel to stay is wrong

On a better day
we'd be waiting on our corner
Selling dreams of redemption
But this time you've gone your way
So I'll go mine
Out of sight, out of love, out of time

Your love for me is wrong
Let me down easy
Your love for me is gone
Let me down easy
Since you feel to stay is wrong

Let me down
Let me down easy

Agnes Obel - Words Are Dead [LIVE]

I wanna buy you roses
'Cause the words are dead,
Follow in the blindness
On the arrow head
'Cause the words are dead
And you know it
Yeah the words are dead
Lower them down

Didn't know if you could
Deny the dead,
Leaving them in silence
On their mouldy bed
Oh I am numb
And over
Their kingdom come
Lower me down

They are dead, they are dead
Oh, don't cry for me,
Oh, don't cry for me,
Oh, don't cry for me,
Oh, don't you cry for me

Lower them down in the ground
Lower them down in the ground

Kwamie LIV - 5 am [DECOUVERTE du jour]

  it's 5 am.

you're sitting at the hotel, looking at your mermaid friend.
so many people forgot who you were,
now they're calling you up again.

it's 5 am
she moves a little closer to you.
you're in past your knees,
she taps you on your chin,
the sea is full of sharks
now can you swim?

everybody's hiding in the neon lights
this city is a jungle better learn to fight
better learn the difference between church and pray
never let them tell you, you can't go your way

everybody's hiding in the neon lights
this city is a jungle better learn to fight
better learn the difference between do and say
never let them tell you, you can't go your way

falling,
darling
hold on to,
love.

it's 7.02
you're sitting at the diner, mumbling to the girl in blue.
she pours you a drink,
the table starts to sink,
you hang on but you're falling through.

it's 7.02
someone calls your name
somewhere in the rubble there's a flame
somewhere in the dark is your past
telling you to never look back.

Lilly allen - Sheezus

Ca faisait quelques semaines que Lilly Allen nous mettait l'eau à la bouche avec Sheezus, tiré de l'album éponyme qui sortira le 5 mai prochain. Elle confiait en effet que le titre était son préféré de l'album et qu'elle espérait en faire le premier single. Malheureusement c'était sans compter les "bien-pensants"...

En effet, outre le côté down-tempo (qui n'est pas sans rappeler le style de MIA et qui participe bien à donner son identité au morceau et à appuyer l'ironie des paroles) la maison de disque a du écouter certaines des critiques que l'on a pu lire ici et là en Angleterre et aux Etats-Unis. La chanteuse s'arrêtait d'ailleurs sur la question lors d'une interview accordée à Rolling Stones.

It’s also got the word “period” in it, which is really offensive to people, even though half the world has to deal with it once a month.
 I think that “period” is going to be my “surfboard” with Beyoncé. People will wear sweatshirts to my concerts that are just going to say “period.”

Voilà voilà, certains censeurs s'intéressent aux vrais problèmes, plutôt rassurant...  Quoi qu'il en soit, nous on aime particulièrement ce Sheezus, et pour le reste (Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, etc.) on t'a mis les paroles plus bas, et je pense qu'elles sont assez parlantes.


Les paroles de Sheezus
Been here before, so I'm prepared
Not gonna lie though, I'm kinda scared
Lace up my gloves, I'm going in
Don't let my kids watch me when I get in the ring
I'll take the hits, roll with the punches
I'll get back up, it's not as if I've never done this
But then again, the game is changing
Can't just come back, jump on the mic and do the same thing
There goes the bell, I know that sound
I guess it's time for me to go another round
Now wish me luck, I'm gonna need it
I'll see you on the other side, if I'm still breathing

RiRi isn't scared of Katy Perry's roaring
Queen B's going back to the drawing
Lorde smells blood, yeah, she's about to slay you
Kid ain't one to fuck with when she's only on her debut
We're all watching Gaga, L-O-L-O, ah-ha
Dying for the art so, really, she's a martyr
The second best will never cut it for the divas
Give me that crown, bitch
I wanna be Sheezus

I'm ready for all the comparisons
I think it's dumb and it's embarrassing
I'm switching off, no longer listening
I've had enough of persecution and conditioning
Maybe it's an instinct, we're only animal
Maybe it's healthy, maybe it's rational
It makes me angry, I'm serious
But then again, I'm just about to get my period
Periods, we all get periods
Every month, yo, that's what the theory is
It's human nature, another cycle
Be nice to me, I'll make you one of my disciples

RiRi isn't scared of Katy Perry's roaring
Queen B's going back to the drawing
Lorde smells blood, yeah, she's about to slay you
Kid ain't one to fuck with when she's only on her debut
We're all watching Gaga, L-O-L-O, ah-ha
Dying for the art so, really, she's a martyr
The second best will never cut it for the divas
Give me that crown, bitch
I wanna be Sheezus

I am born again, now run along and tell
All your friends to come and join us
Give yourselves to me, I am your leader
"Let me be Sheezus"
"Let me be Sheezus

Childish Gambino - Sweatpants feat. Problem

Childish Gambino est de retour avec une vidéo vraiment pas mal foutue! Pour le titre Sweatpants (ft. Problem) celui que l'on connait aussi pour son rôle de Troy dans la série Community, nous livre un clip visuellement réussi. Pour le morceau, sur lequel son flow est toujours aussi aiguisé, je te laisse lire les paroles plus bas...

A noter, Because The Internet, le très bon album dont est tiré le morceau est dans les bacs depuis la fin d'année dernière.



Les paroles de Sweatpants... 

Watching haters wonder why Gambino got the game locked
Half-Thai thickie, all she wanna do is Bangkok
Got her hair done, French braids, now she A$AP
Bino so insensitive, she asking, "Why you say that?!"
I'm chillin', real nigga feeling
Rich kid, asshole: paint me as a villain
Still spitting that cash flow: DJ Khaled
I got a penthouse on both coasts, pH balance
Real nigga, I rep those, why though? Cause I said so
Hip deep in the Pepto, I got five on her like Ben Folds
I got more tail than that PetCo, you faker than some Sweet'N Low
Yeah, you got some silverware, but really are you eating though?
Are you eating though? Nigga, are you eating though?
Breakfast, lunch and dinner's for beginners, you ain't even know
Never catching cases, why they faces look so e-m-o?
Watch a hater hate me, wanna play me like a piano
My architect know Japanese, yo' girl, she jocking me
No hands like soccer teams and y'all fuck boys like Socrates
You niggas ain't copping these, niggas ain't looking like me
Nah, I ain't checking I.D. but I bounce 'em with no problem
Tell 'em, Problem (Problem!)

I'm winnin', yeah, yeah, I'm winnin' [x3]
Rich kid, asshole, paint me as a villain

Don't be mad cause I'm doing me better than you doing you [x3]
Better than you doing you, fuck it, what you gon' do?

Different color, my passport, Instagram my stack load
Hashtag my day wear and your girl drink my day care.
And I'm born rich, life ain't fair (silver spoon coon, ho)
Ain't nobody sicker and my Fisker "vroom, vroom," ho
Ain't nobody
Fiskers don't make noise when they start up, just so you know
Top of the Hold 'em totem, rich forever, a million was not the quota
My father owned half of MoMA and did it with no diploma
Year off, got no rules, tripping off of them toadstools
More green than my Whole Foods and I'm too fly, Jeff Goldblum
Got a glass house in the Palisades, that a-k-a
White hood, white hood, (okay-kay-kay)
Furniture custom, you shop at IKEA
So Maserati, you whipping a Kia
Spending this money, it's longer than Nia
Live like a Coppola, me and Sofia
Waking up broke, man, wouldn't wanna be ya
Friends with the dope man, help a nigga re-up
Bring a girlfriend, man, trouble when I see her
"Err-err-err-err": onomatopoeia, oh, I got my cool on! (Tell 'em, mane)
I'm winning so they had to dump the Gatorade
And I don't give a fuck about my family name

Milky Chance - Down by the River

 Pic by Tarik Mousselmal

Après l'énorme succès de Stolen Dance, Milky Chance est de retour avec son nouveau clip extrait de son premier album Sadnecessary. Clemens Rehbein et Philipp Dausch nous reviennent en effet avec Down by the River. Et la recette ne change pas pour leur reggae tinté de synthés: à la voix et la guitare de l'un vient s'ajouter le clavier du second, le tout avec une énergie toute positive qui leur est propre.



Les paroles de... Down by The River
Down by the river
I was drawn by your grace
Into tempest of oblivion
and to the lovers-place
I was stucked in a puddle
full of tears and unwise
Dark doings now I know
that we’ve paid unlike
Honey I know hey
when we walked arm in arm
I felt like we can throw away
the falseness of our past
And I know too
it’s been the hardest day for you
Let’s throw them out the
window
that’s what those lovers do

(x3)

Aloe Blacc - Wake Me Up [COUP DE COEUR du jour]

Les Paroles.... 

Feeling my way through the darkness
Guided by a beating heart
I can't tell where the journey will end
But I know where to start

Hey tell me I’m too young to understand
They say I’m caught up in a dream
My life will pass me by if I don’t open up my eyes
Well it's fine by me

So wake me up when its all over
When I’m wiser and I’m older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn’t know I was lost

So wake me up when its all over
When I’m wiser and I’m older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn’t know I was lost

I tried carrying the weight of the world
But I only have two hands
I hope I get the chance to travel the world
But I don’t have any plans

Wish that I could stay forever this young
Not afraid to close my eyes
Life’s a game made for everyone
And love is the prize

So wake me up when its all over
When I’m wiser and I’m older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn’t know I was lost

So wake me up when its all over
When I’m wiser and I’m older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn’t know I was lost

I didn’t know I was lost
I didn’t know I was lost
I didn’t know I was lost

Handcrafted Soul - Frozen [LES FRENCHIES du jour]

Si devait faire dans le pompeux et classifier la musique des Handcrafted Soul, on parlerait certainement d'un groupe de folk rock dont la modernité est principalement inscrite sur un solide et charmant socle rétro. Voilà voilà... Mais bon tu sais qu'ici on est un peu plus directs et moins empreints de la recherche systématique des beaux mots propre à nos amis journalistes.

Donc, Handcrafted Soul c'est avant tout duo français à découvrir d'urgence, si ce n'est déjà le cas au travers des nombreuses scènes qu'ils n'ont eu de cesse d'écumer ces douze derniers mois. Ce genre groupes dont la musique vous touche par sa sincérité. Des multi-instrumentistes qui gèrent l'ensemble de la chaîne, de la composition à l'interprétation en passant par la réalisation des clips. Une démarche qui confère à leurs productions une touche à la fois artisanale et créative qui ne saura que te plaire.

En ce qui concerne Frozen, l'écriture est au rendez-vous, l'instru est parfait, la voix te transporte et le tout est même sublimé par un petit bijou de clip dont l'image ne sera pas sans rappeler un Sin City qui aurait mué en histoire d'amour. De la belle ouvrage. On aime. Beaucoup.

Pour finir, les paroles c'est plus bas, leur premier EP c'est sur iTunes, et leur page Facebook c'est par là.



Les Paroles... 
Don't tell the truth , just say that you love me
No matter the season, i'd be frozen if you leave me

I'd be nothing but an empty shell
On a place worse than hell
What sould I do with a lack of you ?
To nowhere always walking
On streets crowded with nothing
I'd be no one forever alone

Don't tell the truth just say that you love me
No matter the season i'd be frozen if you leave me

Hold me tight tell me a sweet lie
Make a promise you'll never keep
Be as lovely as you might for my delight
And never confess what's really deep
The places you do not stand are a mere desert land
Nothing would remain, no tear no rain

Don't tell the truth just say that you love me
No matter the season i'd be frozen if you leave me

2 Chainz ft. Kanye West - Birthday Song [POÉSIE du jour]

Allez on commence une nouvelle rubrique avec ces artistes qui ont vraiment pris le temps d'écrire, dont les textes sont empreints d'un amour incontestable du "beau mot" et de la figure de style recherchée... (euh oui oui, #IronieMaxInside).

Donc, pour ouvrir le bal 2 Chainz (que l'on retrouvera sans doute régulièrement ici) avec, en featuring Kanye West, pour un "joyeux anniversaire" assez fleuri. (en effet on aurait pu aussi s'arrêter sur le clip, mais bon ce serait trop facile là...)

Les Paroles...

Yeah

Birthday, it's your birthday

If I die bury me inside that Louis store

[Hook: 2 Chainz]

They ask me what I do and who I do it for
And how I come up with this shit up in the studio

All I want for my birthday is a big booty ho

All I want for my birthday is a big booty ho

When I die, bury me inside the Gucci store
When I die, bury me inside the Louis store

All I want for my birthday is a big booty ho

All I want for my birthday is a big booty ho

She got a big booty so I call her Big Booty

Scrr..Scrr.. Wrists moving, cookin' to it

I'm in the kitchen, yams everywhere

Just made a juug, I got bands everywhere

You the realest nigga breathin' if I hold my breath

Referee, with the whistle, brrrrrt! hold his tech
Extendo clip, extendo roll

When your girl leave me she need a hair salon

Hair weave killer goin' on a trapathon

See I done had more bombs than Pakistan
Dope bomb, dro bomb, and a pill bomb

See nigga, I'm ballin', you in will call

When I die, bury me inside the jewelry store

When I die, bury me inside the Truey store
True to my religion, 2 everything I'm too different

So when I die, bury me next to 2 bitches

Ah, Yeezy Yeezy how you do it huh?

It's my birthday, I deserve to be greedy huh?
She holding out, she ain't givin' to the needy huh?
You go downstairs and fall asleep with the T.V. on

Ya'll been together ten years, you deserve a ménage
'Specially if you put that BMW in the garage
'Specially if you paid a couple payments on her mamma crib

Went to her niece's graduation, man, I hate those kids

Last birthday, she got you a new sweater
Put it on, give her a kiss, and tell her, "Do better"

She said, "How 'bout I get you jewelry from the West End?"

How 'bout she hit the Westin and get her best friend?

I'm jokin', I'm just serious, I asked her

Don't be actin' like no actress, if we preachin' then we practice

Don't be reachin', don't be touchin' shit
We in Kanye West's Benz
Cause I will turn you back to a pedestrian

[Verse 3: 2 Chainz (Kanye West)]

It's your birthday, it's your birthday

Bad bitches contest, you in first place

You in first place, you in first place

Bad bitches contest, you in first place

I show up with a check to your work place

(Then hand the valet the keys to the Merces)

Tell the DJ play your song, this shit come on

(What I'm seein' from the back I can't front on)

They ask me what I do and who I do it for

When I die, bury me inside the booty club

Get it girl, get it girl, get it get it girl

I might switch it up and get you girl

Deuce and Ye

We like Snoop and Dre

Isn't this your birthday, baby?
You deserve a coupe today

(You in first place, you in first place)

(Bad bitches contest you in first place!)

Florence + the Machine - Breaking Down [COUP DE CŒUR du jour]

All alone,
It was always there you see.
And even on my own,
It was always standing next to me.

I can see it coming from the edge of the room.
Creeping in the streetlight.
Holding my hand in the pale gloom.
Can you see it coming now?

AAaaAAhhh...
I think I'm breaking down again...
AAaaAAhhh...
I think I'm breaking down...

All alone,
Even when I was a 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 streetlight.
Holding my hand in the pale gloom.
Can you see it coming now?

AAaaAAhhh...
I think I'm breaking down again...
AAaaAAhhh...
I think I'm breaking down...

All alone,
On the edge of sleep,
My old familiar friend
Comes and lies down next to me.

And I can see it coming from the edge of the room.
Smiling in the streetlight.
Even with my eyes shut tight,
I still see it coming now.

Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros - Man On Fire

I’m a man on fire
Walking through your street
With one guitar
And two dancing feet
Only one desire
That’s left in me
I want the whole damn world
To come dance with me

(ohhhhhhhh. Come dance with me)

I’m a hunter at bay
Come and set you free
Over heartache and shame

I wanna see our bodies burning like the old big sun
I wanna know what we’ve been learning and learning from

Everybody want safety (safety love)
Everybody want comfort (comfort love)
Everybody want certain (certain love)
Everybody but me

I’m a man on fire
Walking down your street
With one guitar
And two dancing feet
Only one desire
That’s left in me
I want the whole damn world
To come and dance with me

(bah bah bah bah bah…)

Yay, yay. Come dance with me
Over heartache and rage
Come set us free
Over panic and strange

I wanna see our bodies burning like the old big sun
I wanna know what we’ve been learning and learning from

Everybody want romance (romance love)
Everybody want safety (safety love)
Everybody want comfort (comfort love)
Everybody but me

I’m a man on fire (he’s a man on fire)
Walking down your street (walking down your street)
With one guitar (With one guitar)
And two dancing feet (two dancing feet)
Only one desire (one desire)
That’s still in me (that’s left in me)
I want the whole damn world (I want the whole damn world)
To come and dance with me (come and dance with me yeahhhhh…)
