"On The Floor" lyrics
"On The Floor"
I'm trying
But still I close my eyes
The dreaming
Bringing his face to mine
Lock the door
The constant buzzing
All through the night
The fight it
Rips me all up inside
On the floor
I pace, I run my mouth
I pray and wait
I cross out his name on the page
(How long 'til) this washes away?
(How long 'til) my body is safe?
(How long 'til) I walk in the light?
(How long 'til) this heart isn't mine?
The rise and fall
Of his chest on me
I'm trying
But still it's all I see
The violent
Current of energy
I hide it
Away and underneath
Lock the door
I shake, I promise everyday
To change
I cross out his name on the page
(How long 'til) this washes away?
(How long 'til) my body is safe?
(How long 'til) I walk in the light?
(How long 'til) this heart isn't mine?
Take this wildness away
I'm trying
But still I close my eyes
The dreaming
Bringing his face to mine
Out the door
I pace, I run my mouth
I pray to change
I cross out his name on the page
(How long 'til) this washes away?
(How long 'til) my body is safe?
(How long 'til) this heart isn't mine?
I just want him in my arms
I just want him in my arms

Weyes Blood - "Andromeda" Andromeda's a big, wide open galaxy
Nothing in it for me except a heart that's lazy
Running from my own life now
I'm really turning some time
Looking up to the sky for something I may never find...
Dirty Projectors - "Overlord" Oh, fear is old
Please don't yell at the train
Just get aboard
Oh, we go forth
Those who stay behind will be
Left on the shore
Who could afford
Not to be a part of what
We're pushing toward?
Over...
Moses Sumney - "Virile" Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah!
On a long hike through blue ridge mountains
I can feel the earth overtake my skin (Yeah)
And I realize none of this matters
'Cuz I will return to dust and matter...
Austra - "Anywayz" You make me so angry
I love you, I love you
We keep up without you
So lonely, so lonely
For weeks still I see you
Come back, I want to feel you
The distance between us
Come back, I want to hear you...
Future Islands - "For Sure" Perish the pain
I was impoverished
Those ties that wind
And stared into open lanes
Stared into long long nights
Howling and still
West of the Eastern Cove
Carving the wind
Dawn of your eyes
Dust off...
