"Gods And Monsters" lyrics
Johnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane Lyrics
"Gods And Monsters"
I thought I'd have to do battle
With gods and monsters
I thought I had to seek prophets
On distant horizons: questions I never have answers
for questions that never have answers
See the lights on the other side
And I'm burning up
The river flows fast and wide
As I cross over
I thought the story had endings
But the path proved hard to find
I thought love had a summit
With a view of all humankind
But the rocks of love come tumbling over me
Questions that never have answers
See the lights on the other side
And I'm burning up
The river flows fast and wide
As I cross over
Journeying far from your orbit
Sent past the end of the earth
Just to feel the place that has called me summoned me
Is right there in your arms, the birth the death
Heaven and hell have a fury unleashed
Questions that never have answers
See the lights on the other side
And I'm burning up
The river flows fast and wide
As I cross over
The story without end
I heard at the end of all time (the beginning)
Closing my eyes with our children in mind
The beginning of love is sublime
And the story without ending
I can see all the way to the distant shore
The story without ending is I love you
I love you
I love you
See the lights on the other side
And I'm burning up
The river flows fast and wide
As I cross over

Bon Iver - "Flume" I am my mother's only one
It's enough
I wear my garment so it shows
Now you know
Only love is all maroon
Gluey feathers on a flume
Sky is womb and she's the moon
I am my mother on the wall...
The Maccabees - "Toothpaste Kisses" Cradle me, I'll cradle you
I'll win your heart with a woop-a-woo
Pulling shapes just for your eyes
So with toothpaste kisses and lines
I'll be yours and you'll be
Lay with me, I'll lay with you...
The Magnetic Fields - "The Book Of Love" The book of love is long and boring
No one can lift the damn thing
It's full of charts and facts and figures
And instructions for dancing
But I, I love it when you read to me
And you, you can read...
Angel Olsen - "Unfucktheworld" I quit my dreaming the moment that I found you
I started dancing just to be around you
Here's to thinking that it all meant so much more
I kept my mouth shut and opened up the door
I wanted nothing...
Laura Marling - "Song For Our Daughter" Though they may want you to tread in their trail
Only to see if the path they set fails
Though they may want you to take off your clothes
Whatever they think that the action exposed
With your clothes...
