Lyrics of the Week - What are yours?

[PhoenixxFire]

Power - Bastille

If you're gonna hit me, hit me harder
(Hit me, hit me harder)
Cause you better knock me out the first time
And if you're gonna do this rip the plaster
(Do this rip the plaster)
If you're gonna hit me, hit me harder than this
Power, power
Blows my mind to think I ever let you hold it over me

Boy Lilikoi - Jónsi

Just say no more, use your eyes, the world goes and flutters by
Use your eyes, you'll know you are
Use your eyes, the world goes and flutters by
Use your eyes, you'll know you are

I wish that I was as invisible as you make me feel

Blood is the god of war's rich livery,
Accurs'd be he that first invented war,
They knew not us,
They knew not simple men,
Nor those who were hit by pelting cannon shots

Have been trying to look for a video of this song for a year now. From Pop Up Globe's Henry V. Brilliant.

F*ckin' Perfect

After the last Methods exam today, i couldn't stop jumping around...

[PhoenixxFire]

The path to heaven runs through miles of clouded hell
Right to the top
Don't look back

This is a lot older than the rest of the music I've been listening to lately haha

One step ahead, one step behind me
Now you gotta run to get even
Make future plans, don't dream about yesterday

Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier
Even though I might not like this
I think that you'll be happier, I want you to be happier

I wanna wake up where your love is
'Cause your love is always waking mine
I wanna break down where your heart gets
So torn it's almost breaking mine
I wanna lay here, lost and bitter
So long, I feel like I could die
I wanna tell you what my truth is
But it's buried down inside

Shining light, show and tell
Don't be scared, truth is hell
Down we go, wish me well
No one knows where we fell

Dream - Bishop Briggs

[Poet]

But I should just walk away, away
Oh, it grips me
'Cause the devil’s got my arms
'Cause the devil's got my arms
And it pulls me back into the night

[PhoenixxFire]

I've been reckless and ragged, I've been run into to the ground
I've been lost for so long I forgot I could be found

Hozier -- Would That I

So in awe there I stood as you licked off the grain
Though I've handled the wood, I still worship the flame
Long as amber of ember glows
All the wood that I'd loved is long ago

And that's not tonight
When I'm set alight
And I blink inside
Oh, your blinding light
Oh, that's not tonight

For context, throughout the first half of the song, the singer's old love is likened to a willow tree. I think the references to loving something else -- the flame -- refers to a change in the person. They no longer love the old part of them, the tree, but for tonight they can love the new part. They no longer love them -- but that's not tonight.

[Poet]

You won't be the only one
I am unfinished, I've got
So much left to learn
I don't know how this river runs
But I'd like the company
Through every twist and turn

[sweetiepi]

We hide, lifting from the ground
We go, never coming down
I don't mind if you wanna go anywhere
I'll take you there

Snakes are biting at my heels
The worries that refuse to let us go
I’ve been kicking them away
Been hoping not to let them take control
