Look Up lyrics - Chairlift
When the limbs have all been shaken 'til there's no more fruit to bear
When the tiger's barely up to feed the sleepers at the wheel
When you run out pretending and there's nowhere left to run
But you keep running, running, running, running, running
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
And I heard we'll meet our end on bridges built across the sky
But when you say it, I believe you, and it almost sounds alright
Tell the losers, tell the winners, the same ship will bear us all
But all I want is to want nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
Look up, hey
Polymorphing lyrics - Chairlift
There's something better than what you're asking for
Kid, kid, tonight
Something better than what you're asking for
Kid, kid, tonight
Something better than what you're asking for
Kid, kid, tonight
Something better than what you're asking for
Kid, kid, kid, kid
I could not be more forgiving
Dr. Lucy, fancy living
Stick your shift in, polymorphing
Sound my guns when we're together
Shake a rain stick, guide the weather
Take the day off, I surrender
Oh darling
If this heart was a garden would you till it?
If this life was a pulse would you feel it?
If this love was a wound would you heal it?
There's something better than what you're asking for
Kid, kid, tonight
Something better than what you're asking for
Kid, kid, tonight
Something better than what you're asking for
Kid, kid, tonight
Something better than what you're asking for
Kid, kid, kid, kid
Fill her up with serotonin
Pyrotechnic, oxytocin
Overdosing, polymorphing
In the sense within the warzone
Undercover in the ozone
Bungee jumping on the upswing
Oh darling
If this heart was a garden would you till it?
If this life was a pulse would you feel it?
If this love was a wound would you heal it?
There's something better than what you're
Something better than what you're
Better than, better than, night
Kid, kid, kid, kid
There's something better than what you're
Something better than what you're
Better than, better than, night
Kid, kid, kid, kid
Heart, heart
Polymorphing
Oh darling
If this heart was a garden would you till it?
If this life was a pulse would you feel it?
If this love was a wound would you heal it?
Oh just make it better or something
There's something better than what you're
I do better than what you're
I do better than what you're
There's something better than what you're
I do better than what you're
Night
There's something better than what you're
I do better than what you're
Night
Kid, kid, kid, kid
I'm polymorphing
(Everybody just calm the fuck down)
I'm polymorphing
Polymorphing
Tonight

Romeo lyrics - Chairlift
On your marks
Get set!
Step up, lover
Big talker, take a number
I've got all day
To wipe the smile off your face
If I win, you're done with
But if you win, you win my heart
Isn't that what you want…
Hey Romeo
Put on your running shoes
I'm ready to go
Hey Romeo
Put on your running shoes
I'm ready to go
The only way he
Can catch up to me is to cheat
There is no veto
What's done is done once I am beat
So roll me, race me
With all your tricks and all your heart
I'm not wishing you luck…
Hey Romeo
Put on your running shoes
I'm ready to go
Hey Romeo
Put on your running shoes
I'm ready to go
On your mark
I'm gonna run 'til you give me a
Reason to stop
To fall on my knees
To need love
On your mark
I'm gonna run 'til you give me a
Reason to stop
To fall on my knees
To, to fall on my…
Hey Romeo
Put on your running shoes
I'm ready to go
Hey Romeo
Put on your running shoes
I'm ready to go

Ch-ching
Nobody will help you 'til you go and help yourself
Take it and don't wait for it to come from someone else
I've got everything I need right here, between my hands
And there it is right in front of me...
Take a look at me
Who'd have thought I'd be
The one that got away with it
I got a way with it
They showed me a fantasy
I stole it for you and me
Tripped it, switch, flipped it
Slow dripped it, unzipped it
I flipped it
Getting what you want can be dangerous (uh-oh)
But that's the only way I want it to be
I double dare you to keep a secret (uh-oh)
And pass it back under the table to me
I put the stash in the bookshelf (uh-oh)
Open your mouth and I'll slip you the key
Now crack that combination (uh-oh)
Like 27-99-23
Ch-ching
Ch-ching
27-99-23

Slow dripped it, unzipped it

If nobody sees it then nobody knows
I beg for forgiveness not permission
The music ain't playing 'til you listen
Getting what you want can be dangerous
But that's the only way I want it to be
I double dare you to keep a secret
And pass it back under the table to me
I put the stash in the bookshelf
Open your mouth and I'll slip you the key
Now crack that combination like 27-99-23
Ch-ching

Crying In Public lyrics - Chairlift
Take all my defenses in two words
And throw them away
Tell me, what kind of monster
Have I been today?
But you smile and call me "tough guy"
To the opposite effect
It’s a flower in the gun
And your tough guy’s a wreck
Sorry I'm crying in public this way
I'm falling for you, I'm falling for you
I'm sorry I'm causing a scene on the train
I'm falling for you, I'm falling for you
Love will be the bridge
Over the sand
Love will be the key
From hand to hand
Like the peach you split open
With two thumbs
I'm the half without a stone
And my heart is a hollow
With a space for your own
(or whatever you want to do with it)
And I’m blaming all beauty upon you
From the birds at my feet
To the breakdancing boys
And their boomboxes' beat, beat, beat
Sorry I'm crying in public this way
I'm falling for you, I'm falling for you
I'm sorry I'm causing a scene on the train
I'm falling for you, I'm falling for you
Love will be the bridge
Over the sand
Love will be the key
From hand to hand
Each autumn leaf and passing breath
Each antidote to sudden death
And there we are
And who'd've guessed
That there it is, just like that
Forgive me
Sorry I'm crying in public this way
I'm falling for you, I'm falling for you
I'm sorry I'm causing a scene on the train
I'm falling for you, I'm falling for you
Love will be the bridge
Over the sand
Love will be the key
From hand to hand
Ottawa To Osaka lyrics - Chairlift
Ottawa to Osaka
The lesson to learn
Racing beyond the islands of desire and time
Ottawa to Osaka
And left to move you up
Chasing the rising tide, I am
The light at your side
All we need is guns and mortar, gasoline and a stick of butter
Now, everyone's asking why we don't look back, foreigners
Now, everyone's asking why we do not talk like foreigners
All we need is mascara
Incognito tuxedo
Now, everyone's asking why we don't look back, foreigners
Now everyone's asking why we up and left for
Ottawa to Osaka
The lesson to learn
Racing beyond the islands of desire and time
Now everyone is asking why we do not walk like them
Everyone is asking why we do not talk like them
Everyone is asking why we do not walk like them
Everyone is asking why we do not talk like them
Everyone is asking why we do not walk like them
Everyone is asking why we do not talk like them
Everyone is asking why we do not walk like them
Ottawa to Osaka
A lesson to learn
Racing beyond the islands of desire and time
Ottawa to Osaka
A lesson to learn
I am the operator of the marmelade sky
Moth To The Flame lyrics - Chairlift
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a, a
He's that kinda man, mama
I should know better than to take your love letters to heart
When the game's already lost before it starts
Hope hides inside a cliche
Like a nod of understanding
From the power who first felt this way
How can I turn away?
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a, a
He's that kinda man, mama
But every little pull at the end of the golden rope
Fills my foolish heart with foolish hope
That maybe you might feel the same
As if feeling the same was the name of the game
The name of the game
I shouldn't be playing
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a, a
He's that kinda man, mama
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
I shouldn't be playing
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it I'm a, a
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
He's that kinda man, mama
Show U Off lyrics - Chairlift
Take a break from the wooing mountains, I wanna show you off
Laying low at home, whatever, I wanna show you off
To the boys who think they're clever, I wanna show you off
So that they see who's finally saying yes to you
You can trust this, you can have this
Not playing a game
I wanna let this, go public and not be ashamed
Whoo, they don't make them like you anymore (No, no)
Cause if you got it like we got it
If it's real, and if you want it babe
Show it off
Let us see how you get on
Roll the window down to flaunt it babe
Show it off
Show it off
See, I can be a discrete lover but, I wanna show you off
Can't get this undercover (like the showing better)
If you wanna bring your boys around
Then you can show me off too
You can trust this, you can have this
Not playing a game
I wanna preach this, unleash this, and not be ashamed
Whoo, they don't make them like you anymore
So take a second, take a minute
Cause if you got it like we got it
If it's real, and if you want it babe
Show it off
Let us see how you get on
Roll the window down to flaunt it babe
Show it off
Show it off
I-I-I'm past the point of asking why
Why I-I-I, why I let the whole world know you're mine
Cause if you got it like we got it
If it's real, real
Let us see how you get on
Roll the window down to flaunt it babe
Show it off
Show it off
Cause if you got it like we got it
If you got it like we do
Hey, if it's real, be real
Gotta see if you're down, down, down
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
So be real
Let us see how you get down
Unfinished Business lyrics - Chairlift
I told you I have to go
Not pretend I really know
I've got mad to get to the center of the storm
If your name still carved into my bones
My sister pill, wind in the sale
Calls me senseless to her side
But on the place between the trains
You'll be a star within my sky
Unfinished business
Unfinished business
I'm not finished with this
This thing between just you and I
But for now don't wait for me
Cause I'll see you in my dreams
You'll be wearing red and I'll be wearing green
But for now don't wait for me
Unfinished business
Unfinished business
I'm not finished with this
This thing between just you and me
The rocks we sat on
They are still there right now
They are still there right now
Unfinished business
Unfinished business
I'm not finished with this
This thing between just you and me
No Such Thing As Illusion lyrics - Chairlift
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing
There's no such thing as illusion
To walk around in circles
And now I have the story straight
I'm running down a mountain
Tears of gold running down my head
To wake up from a nightmare
To your warm, familiar face
I will love again, be as simple
As your hand wrapped around my waist
After all I thought I wanted
Ripped in two, all on display
After all your [?]
To lose but walk away
And after all the crying is all less
You won't come free
You know the status quo in nature
The strong eat the weak
Tonight the expectations
Were lost along the way
After all I ever needed
Was your arm around my waist
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing
There's no such thing as illusion
Don't tell me that it's fleeting
Don't tell me it's a honeymoon
Don't tell me that this feeling
Comes and goes, yeah I know what they say
This ain't no new car leather
There's no returning if it breaks
It can be everlasting
Just don't go when I get the shakes
After all I thought I wanted
Ripped in two, put on display
After all I ever needed
Was your arm around my waist
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing as illusion
There's no such thing
There's no such thing as illusion
Get Real lyrics - Chairlift
Stop looking at me that way
Cause next thing I know there goes the day
Good for nothing when you're around
I can't tell which way's up or down
Do you believe in mercy?
Then forgive me for me
And though I don't deserve it
When you hold me, I'm free
Are you just a sweet talking girl
Calling the white roses red
'Til I've lost everything
Even the thoughts in my head
Baby, get real
Get real, real, real, real
Real, real, real, real
Stopping traffic to kiss me
We're a threat to normalcy
But is there more to you than sweet?
There's only so much candy I can eat
Do you believe in mercy?
Then forgive me for me
And though I don't deserve it
When you hold me I'm free, like...
Are you just a sweet talking girl
Calling the white roses red
'Til I've lost everything
Even the thoughts in my head
Baby, get real
Get real, real, real, real
Real, real, real, real
Real, real
Just as I approach the top
Put me out of business, close up shop
Over the cliff, the deepest drop
From fast, fast forward to total stop
Do you believe in mercy...
You're just a sweet talking girl
Calling the white roses red
And I've lost everything
Even the thoughts in my head
Baby get real
Is this an act that you're giving up?
Baby, get real
Sidewalk Safari lyrics - Chairlift
All of the bones in your body
Are in way too few pieces for me
Time to do something about it
If you know what I mean
I'm on a sidewalk safari
If I see you on the street, you'd better run
Away from my all-terrain weapon
In your direction
In your direction...
I'm on a sidewalk safari
If I see you on the street you'd better run
You should have taken a taxi
In your direction
Cause I'm gonna hunt you down
(In your direction)
I'm gonna run you down
(In your direction)
I'm gonna run you down
(In your direction)
I'm gonna hunt you down
I'm bad with bows and arrows
I'm not so good at guns
Poison seems old fashioned
And hired help's no fun
But I do know how to drive a car
Faster than a man can run...
Cause I'm gonna hunt you down
I'm gonna run you down
(In your direction)
I'm gonna run you down
(In your direction)
I'm gonna hunt you down
(In your direction)
Wrong Opinion lyrics - Chairlift
Overhead and underfoot
If you cut it down then you will never know
I laid my guts out on the table
Laid my guts out and you said no
You got a wrong opinion
Wrong opinion
If you don't get it
You don't get to have it
If you don't get it it's fine by me
Because I see sun
I see sun
Over the counter underground
And through the world that you will never know
But to stay and contemplate could make you late
So you take a photo
You got a wrong opinion
Wrong opinion
If you don't get it
You don't get to have it
If you don't get it it's fine by me
If you don't get it
You don't get to have it
If you don't get it it's fine by me
Because I see sun
I see sun
You don't get it no
You don't get it
Yeah the leaves grow where light goes
I see the sun rising over the edge
Did you miss it or ignore it
I see beginning where you see the end
Yeah the leaves grow where light goes
I see the sun rising over the edge
Did you miss it or ignore it
I see beginning where you see the end
Because I see sun
I see sun
I see sun
I see sun
I see sun
If you cut it down then you will never know
I laid my guts out on the table
Laid my guts out and you said no
You got a wrong opinion
Wrong opinion
If you don't get it
You don't get to have it
If you don't get it it's fine by me
Because I see sun
I see sun
Over the counter underground
And through the world that you will never know
But to stay and contemplate could make you late
So you take a photo
You got a wrong opinion
Wrong opinion
If you don't get it
You don't get to have it
If you don't get it it's fine by me
If you don't get it
You don't get to have it
If you don't get it it's fine by me
Because I see sun
I see sun
You don't get it no
You don't get it
Yeah the leaves grow where light goes
I see the sun rising over the edge
Did you miss it or ignore it
I see beginning where you see the end
Yeah the leaves grow where light goes
I see the sun rising over the edge
Did you miss it or ignore it
I see beginning where you see the end
Because I see sun
I see sun
I see sun
I see sun
I see sun
I Belong in Your Arms lyrics - Chairlift
Crossing my heart
Open wide
You're my crystal and clover
All of me, honestly
Is dedicated to hold you
Swear to god
Double know
What would you do if I stole you tonight?
Why waste time?
Because the world goes on without us
It doesn't matter what we do
All silhouettes with no regrets
When I'm melting into you
I belong in your arms
I belong in your arms
Feelings are good
Nothing to say
Just want my head on your shoulder
Banana split
Honestly
You're my remote controller
Between you and me
Suddenly
Something something something is on my mind
Because the world goes on without us
It doesn't matter what we do
All silhouettes with no regrets
When I'm melting into you
I belong in your arms
I belong in your arms
Because the world goes on without us
It doesn't matter what we do
All silhouettes with no regrets
When I'm melting into you
I belong in your arms
I belong in your arms
Open wide
You're my crystal and clover
All of me, honestly
Is dedicated to hold you
Swear to god
Double know
What would you do if I stole you tonight?
Why waste time?
Because the world goes on without us
It doesn't matter what we do
All silhouettes with no regrets
When I'm melting into you
I belong in your arms
I belong in your arms
Feelings are good
Nothing to say
Just want my head on your shoulder
Banana split
Honestly
You're my remote controller
Between you and me
Suddenly
Something something something is on my mind
Because the world goes on without us
It doesn't matter what we do
All silhouettes with no regrets
When I'm melting into you
I belong in your arms
I belong in your arms
Because the world goes on without us
It doesn't matter what we do
All silhouettes with no regrets
When I'm melting into you
I belong in your arms
I belong in your arms
Take It Out On Me lyrics - Chairlift
You're here
Early but here
On a morning so clear and blue is fate up for debate?
And does my love only count if it's proved?
Forget forgiveness
Forget all the rules
Just please don't do it here
Bring on the fire
Because business is cruel
And Sophie's got somewhere to be
I'm not afraid so take me outside
I know what you're here to do
Shotguns up familiar sleeves
Undercover but nobody's fooled
Got no time
No time for goodbyes
Oh god just let my love survive
Forget forgiveness
Forget all the rules
Just please don't do it here
Bring on the fire
Because business is cruel
And Sophie's got somewhere to be
Take it out on me
Take it out on me
Forget forgiveness
Forget all the rules
Just please don't do it here
Bring on the fire
Because business is cruel
Just please don't do it here
Take it out on me
Take it out on me
Bring on the fire
Because business is cruel
And Sophie's got somewhere to be
Take it out on me
Early but here
On a morning so clear and blue is fate up for debate?
And does my love only count if it's proved?
Forget forgiveness
Forget all the rules
Just please don't do it here
Bring on the fire
Because business is cruel
And Sophie's got somewhere to be
I'm not afraid so take me outside
I know what you're here to do
Shotguns up familiar sleeves
Undercover but nobody's fooled
Got no time
No time for goodbyes
Oh god just let my love survive
Forget forgiveness
Forget all the rules
Just please don't do it here
Bring on the fire
Because business is cruel
And Sophie's got somewhere to be
Take it out on me
Take it out on me
Forget forgiveness
Forget all the rules
Just please don't do it here
Bring on the fire
Because business is cruel
Just please don't do it here
Take it out on me
Take it out on me
Bring on the fire
Because business is cruel
And Sophie's got somewhere to be
Take it out on me
Ghost Tonight lyrics - Chairlift
Tell me can you see
See the walls through me?
Because how could a love so crazy
Be so easy to ignore
Hollow heavy eyes
Follow in your light
I'm a ghost tonight
The starry night is clear
Can you feel me near?
Under the bed I disappear
Like a secret that you know
Some wounds never mend
Lilies bloom and bend
White as teeth I swim beneath the footsteps in the wall
Hollow heavy eyes
Follow in your light
I'm a ghost tonight
Because my heart is a stone
until you make it right
I could live forever
Forever forever forever
So tell me can you see
See the walls through me?
Hollow heavy eyes
Follow in your light
I'm a ghost tonight
Because my heart is a stone
Until you make it right
I could live forever
Forever forever forever
So tell me can you see
See the walls through me?
Because how could a love so crazy
Be so easy to ignore
See the walls through me?
Because how could a love so crazy
Be so easy to ignore
Hollow heavy eyes
Follow in your light
I'm a ghost tonight
The starry night is clear
Can you feel me near?
Under the bed I disappear
Like a secret that you know
Some wounds never mend
Lilies bloom and bend
White as teeth I swim beneath the footsteps in the wall
Hollow heavy eyes
Follow in your light
I'm a ghost tonight
Because my heart is a stone
until you make it right
I could live forever
Forever forever forever
So tell me can you see
See the walls through me?
Hollow heavy eyes
Follow in your light
I'm a ghost tonight
Because my heart is a stone
Until you make it right
I could live forever
Forever forever forever
So tell me can you see
See the walls through me?
Because how could a love so crazy
Be so easy to ignore
Cool As A Fire lyrics - Chairlift
Wasted the morning again
The world at the window is dead
The look in your eye says you don't love me anymore
Cool as a fire
I'm alive I'm alive I know
But now that I found you I don't have a choice
With or without you I don't have a choice
When nobody's watching I'm coiled in question
Hiding the signs
Because weakness wins if weakness shows
Cool as a fire
I'm alive I'm alive I know
But now that I found you I don't have a choice
With or without you I don't have a choice
Now that I found you I don't have a choice
With or without you I don't have a choice
Gone with the weather
Nothing ever lasts forever
Gone with the weather
Nothing ever lasts forever
Gone with the weather
Nothing ever lasts forever
Gone with the weather
Nothing ever lasts forever
The world at the window is dead
The look in your eye says you don't love me anymore
Cool as a fire
I'm alive I'm alive I know
But now that I found you I don't have a choice
With or without you I don't have a choice
When nobody's watching I'm coiled in question
Hiding the signs
Because weakness wins if weakness shows
Cool as a fire
I'm alive I'm alive I know
But now that I found you I don't have a choice
With or without you I don't have a choice
Now that I found you I don't have a choice
With or without you I don't have a choice
Gone with the weather
Nothing ever lasts forever
Gone with the weather
Nothing ever lasts forever
Gone with the weather
Nothing ever lasts forever
Gone with the weather
Nothing ever lasts forever
Amanaemonesia lyrics - Chairlift
You lost your focus but I got a plan for it
With a secret ingredient
And you are infinitely invited
Just leave alone the geminis
Two of them and four of eyes
And you are infinitely invited
(No one could not agree)
It's unanimously decided
(They've come for you and me)
That we are dangerously surrounded
(Their boats are full of flames)
Aaaaaahhhhh
(They paint the grasses green)
Aaaaaahhhhhh
(Repeating history)
Aaaaaahhhhh
(They don't say what they mean)
Is it amnesia
Amanaemonesia
Mistaken for magic
(Mistaken for magic)
Silver hours
Silver hours
Becoming a habit
(Chasing the rabbit)
Is it amnesia
Amanaemonesia
Mistaken for magic
(Mistaken for magic) [x2]
Spacing out in a nook and cranny
It's officially uncanny
It's a fish in a sea of granite
Just leave alone the geminis
Two of them and four of I’s
(No one could not agree)
It's unanimously decided
(They've come for you and me)
That we are dangerously surrounded
(Their boats are full of flames)
Aaaaahhhhhh
(They paint their grasses green)
Aaaaaaahhhh
(Repeating history)
Aaaaaahhhh
(They don't say what they mean)
Is it amnesia
Amanaemonesia
Mistaken for magic
(Mistaken for magic)
Silver hours
Silver hours
Becoming a habit
(Chasing the rabbit)
Is it amnesia
Amanaemonesia
Mistaken for magic
(Mistaken for magic) [x4]
There's a system of symbols that no one will vouch for
Everyone uses and no one believes
There's a dog in the yard with a manner that's ruff
Yet there's something about you that he understands
The girl at the window covered in ashes
Smiles grotesquely in the light of the day
Singing in German the cold summer warning
But I can't remember what I meant to say
Is it amanaemonesia
(Mistaken for magic)
Amanaemonesia
(Chasing the rabbit)
Amanaemonesia
(Mistaken for magic) [x6]
With a secret ingredient
And you are infinitely invited
Just leave alone the geminis
Two of them and four of eyes
And you are infinitely invited
(No one could not agree)
It's unanimously decided
(They've come for you and me)
That we are dangerously surrounded
(Their boats are full of flames)
Aaaaaahhhhh
(They paint the grasses green)
Aaaaaahhhhhh
(Repeating history)
Aaaaaahhhhh
(They don't say what they mean)
Is it amnesia
Amanaemonesia
Mistaken for magic
(Mistaken for magic)
Silver hours
Silver hours
Becoming a habit
(Chasing the rabbit)
Is it amnesia
Amanaemonesia
Mistaken for magic
(Mistaken for magic) [x2]
Spacing out in a nook and cranny
It's officially uncanny
It's a fish in a sea of granite
Just leave alone the geminis
Two of them and four of I’s
(No one could not agree)
It's unanimously decided
(They've come for you and me)
That we are dangerously surrounded
(Their boats are full of flames)
Aaaaahhhhhh
(They paint their grasses green)
Aaaaaaahhhh
(Repeating history)
Aaaaaahhhh
(They don't say what they mean)
Is it amnesia
Amanaemonesia
Mistaken for magic
(Mistaken for magic)
Silver hours
Silver hours
Becoming a habit
(Chasing the rabbit)
Is it amnesia
Amanaemonesia
Mistaken for magic
(Mistaken for magic) [x4]
There's a system of symbols that no one will vouch for
Everyone uses and no one believes
There's a dog in the yard with a manner that's ruff
Yet there's something about you that he understands
The girl at the window covered in ashes
Smiles grotesquely in the light of the day
Singing in German the cold summer warning
But I can't remember what I meant to say
Is it amanaemonesia
(Mistaken for magic)
Amanaemonesia
(Chasing the rabbit)
Amanaemonesia
(Mistaken for magic) [x6]
Met Before lyrics - Chairlift
Did I just catch your eyes like familiar fish in the water
It could be anywhere that we’ve passed each other by
Were you at that one party? That one up on the ninth floor
Were you the quiet one who stopped to hold the door?
Have we met before? Amongst the buzzing of billions?
Clear like yesterday when you look at me and smile
Was that you on the screen or just in line for the movie?
Because my heart is beating fast and I wish that I knew why
Have we met before? Amongst the buzzing of billions?
Clear like yesterday when you look at me and smile.
Have we met before? Amongst the buzzing of billions?
Clear like yesterday when you look at me and ba-da-da-ba-ba...
Have we met before? Amongst the buzzing of billions?
Clear like yesterday when you look at me and smile
Have we met before? Amongst the buzzing of billions?
Clear like yesterday when you look at me and smile
Oh you look at me and smile
Oh you look at me and smile
Frigid Spring lyrics - Chairlift
High in the ranks of the bleeding hearts
With one to call my own
On the docks of the fishing boats
Of semi precious stone
Recent light
Fresh with vacant envy
Failing all alone
Frigid spring
Of the wishy washy wishing well of home
Missing the mark
At your seat in the dark
At a barter banquet, amen
Riding the ride and unleashing the tide
Of a maiden's mood swing, amen
Won't go as planned without asking the hand
Of the mastermind, amen
Heavenly harness of obstinate power
He's down on her knees
Far in the land of the scribble scrabble
Lightning field of loam
Where the plow pushed sod with devilled hooves of clones
Shanty towns
Harvest hollyhocks
All frothing full of foam
Past the claws of the city light is the doorstep you call home
Missing the mark
At your seat in the dark
At a barter banquet, amen
Riding the ride and unleashing the tide
Of a maiden's mood swing, amen
Won't go as planned without asking the hand
Of the mastermind, amen
Heavenly harness of obstinate power
He's down on her knees
Won't go as planned without asking the hand
Of the mastermind, amen
Heavenly harness of obstinate power
He's down on her knees
Call home
She needs you
He's down on her knees
Call home
She needs you
He's down on her knees
She needs you
With one to call my own
On the docks of the fishing boats
Of semi precious stone
Recent light
Fresh with vacant envy
Failing all alone
Frigid spring
Of the wishy washy wishing well of home
Missing the mark
At your seat in the dark
At a barter banquet, amen
Riding the ride and unleashing the tide
Of a maiden's mood swing, amen
Won't go as planned without asking the hand
Of the mastermind, amen
Heavenly harness of obstinate power
He's down on her knees
Far in the land of the scribble scrabble
Lightning field of loam
Where the plow pushed sod with devilled hooves of clones
Shanty towns
Harvest hollyhocks
All frothing full of foam
Past the claws of the city light is the doorstep you call home
Missing the mark
At your seat in the dark
At a barter banquet, amen
Riding the ride and unleashing the tide
Of a maiden's mood swing, amen
Won't go as planned without asking the hand
Of the mastermind, amen
Heavenly harness of obstinate power
He's down on her knees
Won't go as planned without asking the hand
Of the mastermind, amen
Heavenly harness of obstinate power
He's down on her knees
Call home
She needs you
He's down on her knees
Call home
She needs you
He's down on her knees
She needs you
Turning lyrics - Chairlift
In the dark we unroll an inner vision
I'm turning into someone else
The cage starts fitting
There's something in the water
I'm turning into someone else
I never thought I could reach this far
I never thought I could reach this...
I'm turning into someone else
The cage starts fitting
There's something in the water
I'm turning into someone else
I never thought I could reach this far
I never thought I could reach this...
Guilty As Charged lyrics - Chairlift
Angel in the court room
Eagle on the ceiling
My baby's sitting front row
Witnessing my hearing
I tried to burn the record book collection
I tampered with the local lie detection
I'm guilty as charged
I'm guilty as charged
You know I'm guilty as charged
Go on and punish me
But if I gave you what you're askin' for
You wouldn't want it anymore
If I gave you what you're askin' for
You wouldn't want it anymore
So I won't
No, no, no, no, no I won't
So I won't
No, no, no, no, no I won't
Footprints on the carpet
Cameras on the ceiling
My baby's swearing on the Bible
The stolen golden earrings
The creaky floors set off the fire alarm
And I never wanted to do any harm
But I'm guilty as charged
I'm guilty as charged
You know I'm guilty as charged
Go on and punish me
But if I gave you what you're askin' for
You wouldn't want it anymore
If I gave you what you're askin' for
You wouldn't want it anymore
So I won't
No, no, no, no, no I won't
So I won't
No, no, no, no, no I won't
Eagle on the ceiling
My baby's sitting front row
Witnessing my hearing
I tried to burn the record book collection
I tampered with the local lie detection
I'm guilty as charged
I'm guilty as charged
You know I'm guilty as charged
Go on and punish me
But if I gave you what you're askin' for
You wouldn't want it anymore
If I gave you what you're askin' for
You wouldn't want it anymore
So I won't
No, no, no, no, no I won't
So I won't
No, no, no, no, no I won't
Footprints on the carpet
Cameras on the ceiling
My baby's swearing on the Bible
The stolen golden earrings
The creaky floors set off the fire alarm
And I never wanted to do any harm
But I'm guilty as charged
I'm guilty as charged
You know I'm guilty as charged
Go on and punish me
But if I gave you what you're askin' for
You wouldn't want it anymore
If I gave you what you're askin' for
You wouldn't want it anymore
So I won't
No, no, no, no, no I won't
So I won't
No, no, no, no, no I won't
Garbage lyrics - Chairlift
All the garbage that you have thrown away
Is waiting somewhere a million miles away
Your condoms and your VCR
Your ziploc bags and father's car
Dark and silent it waits for you ahead
So much garbage will never ever decay
And all your garbage will outlive you one day
You should sign a fancy signature to your messy messy portraiture
Because dark and silent it waits for you ahead
Making so much garbage each and every day
We make this shit for you to throw away
In plastic rooms in factories for you to dispose of as you please
Because dark and silent it waits for you ahead
With stomachs full of oil and vinegar
Stomachs full of oil and vinegar
With stomachs full of oil and vinegar hey hey
With stomachs full of oil and vinegar
Stomachs full of oil and vinegar
With stomachs full of oil and vinegar hey hey
La la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la
La la la la la la la la

Planet Health lyrics - Chairlift
When I arrived on planet health
In the state of being well
So I altered my self conscious messes
And body images
I visited the food pyramid
In the desert of vitamins
I found a desired heart rate
And a mouth to resuscitate
I am feeling great tonight
I am feeling great tonight
I am feeling great tonight
I am feeling great tonight
I was trained in diversity
In the garden of puberty
Where they Heimlich maneuvered me
And they showed me how to make a baby
I found my friends in the forest of loves
Where we just said no to drugs
Our intercourse was well protected
We made love with each others' eyes
We're feeling great tonight
We're feeling great tonight
We're feeling great tonight
We're feeling great tonight
Then I found out where you're sent
When you're sick and sad and old
They kick you off of planet health
Into a universe of cold
Stop drop and roll
Just stop drop and roll
Stop drop and roll
Gotta stop and put out the fire
Stop drop and roll
Just stop drop and roll
Stop drop and roll
Gotta stop and put out the fire
Feeling great tonight
I am feeling great tonight
I am feeling great tonight
I am feeling great tonight
In the state of being well
So I altered my self conscious messes
And body images
I visited the food pyramid
In the desert of vitamins
I found a desired heart rate
And a mouth to resuscitate
I am feeling great tonight
I am feeling great tonight
I am feeling great tonight
I am feeling great tonight
I was trained in diversity
In the garden of puberty
Where they Heimlich maneuvered me
And they showed me how to make a baby
I found my friends in the forest of loves
Where we just said no to drugs
Our intercourse was well protected
We made love with each others' eyes
We're feeling great tonight
We're feeling great tonight
We're feeling great tonight
We're feeling great tonight
Then I found out where you're sent
When you're sick and sad and old
They kick you off of planet health
Into a universe of cold
Stop drop and roll
Just stop drop and roll
Stop drop and roll
Gotta stop and put out the fire
Stop drop and roll
Just stop drop and roll
Stop drop and roll
Gotta stop and put out the fire
Feeling great tonight
I am feeling great tonight
I am feeling great tonight
I am feeling great tonight
Earwig Town lyrics - Chairlift
A uniform telephone call
An unknown caller, an unknown face
Oooh, you've been let down
Oooh, in earwig town
They burrow in through your left ear
Lay their eggs and crawl out the right
Oooh, they'll chase you down
Oooh, in earwig town
An unknown caller, an unknown face
Oooh, you've been let down
Oooh, in earwig town
They burrow in through your left ear
Lay their eggs and crawl out the right
Oooh, they'll chase you down
Oooh, in earwig town
Bruises lyrics - Chairlift
I tried to do handstands for you
I tried to do headstands for you
Every time I fell on you yeah every time I fell
I tried to do handstands for you
But every time I fell for you
I'm permanently black and blue, permanently blue
For you
I tried to do handstands for you
I tried to do headstands for you
Every time I fell on you yeah every time I fell
I tried to do handstands for you but every time I fell for you
I'm permanently black and blue, permanently blue
For you ooo ...
For you ooo ...
So black and blue ooo ...
For you ooo
I grabbed some frozen strawberries so I could ice your bruising knees
But frozen things they all unfreeze and now I taste like
All those frozen strawberries I used to chill your bruising knees,
Hot July ain't good to me
I'm pink and black and blue
(for you)
I got bruises on my knees for you
And grass stains on my knees for you
Got holes in my new jeans for you
Got pink and black and blue
Got bruises on my knees for you
And grass stains on my knees for you
Got holes in my new jeans for you
Got pink and black and blue
For you ooo ...
For you ooo ....
So black and blue ooo ...
For you ooo ...
Do-doo-do-do-do
Do-doo-do-do-do

I tried to do headstands for you
Every time I fell on you yeah every time I fell
I tried to do handstands for you
But every time I fell for you
I'm permanently black and blue, permanently blue
For you
I tried to do handstands for you
I tried to do headstands for you
Every time I fell on you yeah every time I fell
I tried to do handstands for you but every time I fell for you
I'm permanently black and blue, permanently blue
For you ooo ...
For you ooo ...
So black and blue ooo ...
For you ooo
I grabbed some frozen strawberries so I could ice your bruising knees
But frozen things they all unfreeze and now I taste like
All those frozen strawberries I used to chill your bruising knees,
Hot July ain't good to me
I'm pink and black and blue
(for you)
I got bruises on my knees for you
And grass stains on my knees for you
Got holes in my new jeans for you
Got pink and black and blue
Got bruises on my knees for you
And grass stains on my knees for you
Got holes in my new jeans for you
Got pink and black and blue
For you ooo ...

Somewhere Around Here lyrics - Chairlift
Near the east Waverly Hills, your hair pinned back
In previous lives, we were frozen sticks
But these aren't so rigid
I throw off my coat to feel this January air
They wrote a book for the two of us
To read our books on
The darkest light before a darker night
We slip underwater
The bridge disappears, the deer hunt is in the frigid air
Somewhere around here there are witches
Somewhere around here there are witches
Somewhere around here, somewhere around here
Somewhere around here, somewhere around here
Somewhere around here, somewhere around here
Somewhere around here, somewhere around here
Somewhere around here, somewhere around here
Somewhere around here, somewhere around here
Somewhere around here, somewhere around here
Somewhere around here
In previous lives, we were frozen sticks
But these aren't so rigid
I throw off my coat to feel this January air
They wrote a book for the two of us
To read our books on
The darkest light before a darker night
We slip underwater
The bridge disappears, the deer hunt is in the frigid air
Somewhere around here there are witches
Somewhere around here there are witches
Somewhere around here, somewhere around here
Somewhere around here, somewhere around here
Somewhere around here, somewhere around here
Somewhere around here, somewhere around here
Somewhere around here, somewhere around here
Somewhere around here, somewhere around here
Somewhere around here, somewhere around here
Somewhere around here
