"Revelry" lyrics
"Revelry"
What a night for a dance, you know I'm a dancing machine
With a fire in my bones and the sweet taste of kerosene
I get lost in the night, so high I don't wanna come down
To face the loss of the good thing that I've found
Woo-hoo-hoo
Woo-hoo-hoo
In the dark of the night, I could hear you calling my name
With the hardest of hearts, I still feel full of pain
So I drink and I smoke and I ask you if you're ever around
Even though it was me who drove us right in the ground
See, the time we shared, it was precious to me
But all the while, I was dreaming of revelry
Born to run, baby, run like a stream down a mountainside
With the wind in my back, I don't ever even bat an eye
Just know it was you all along who had a hold of my heart
But the demon and me were the best of friends from the start
So the time we shared, it was precious to me
All the while, I was dreaming of revelry
Dreaming of revelry
And I told myself, "Boy, away you go"
It rained so hard, it felt like snow
Everything came tumbling down on me
In the back of the woods, in the dark of the night
Paleness of the old moonlight
Everything just felt so incomplete
Dreaming of revelry
Dreaming of revelry
Dreaming of revelry
Dreaming of revelry

Spacey Jane - "Skin" Call it off
It's raining in the summertime
I'm careless and I'm breathing in
I'm running wild
Hope it's easing up
'Cause it's filling up all the empty cups
But it's better them than the rest of us...
Coldplay - "Don't Panic" Bones sinking like stones
All that we fought for
Homes, places we've grown
All of us are done for
And we live in a beautiful world
Yeah we do, yeah we do
We live in a beautiful world
Bones sinking...
Wunderhorse - "Silver" I've always known an anger
And I've always known a shame
I felt it like a hunger
Before I knew my name
I'm just an empty promise
With nothing much to say
So fill me up with poison
And pour me down...
Alabama Shakes - "Always Alright" Well you come upstairs but not to talk
You stay a little while then you do a little walk on home
I hear you downstairs smoking cigarettes, I hear you talking shit
Cuz you ain't got nothing to talk...
Royel Otis - "Sofa King" I can barely lift my eyes
The Holy Ghost should hold your hand for me
Curve my flaws to fit the jeans
But as it stands, I need some more to drink
So if you ever need to find
Someone to get along...
