Kings Of Leon Lyrics : Closer

Stranded in this spooky town,
Stop right this way and then the phone lines are down
Snow is crackling cold,
She took my heart, I think she took my soul
With the moon I run,
Far from the carnage of the fiery sun

Drivin' by the strangle of vain
Showin' no mercy I'll do it again
Open up your eyes
You keep on crying, baby I'll bleed you dry
Skies are beneath me
I see a storm bubbling up from the sea

And it's coming closer [2x]

You sh-sh-shock my bones,
Leavin' me stranded all in love on my own
What do you think of me?
Where am I now, baby where do I sleep?
Feels so good when I'm home
2000 years of chasing takin' it's toll

And it's coming closer [4x]

Kings Of Leon Lyrics : Crawl

You fault my pride
Don't ever need to 'pologize
As your lips unfold
Shaken purple from the cold

You better learn to crawl
You better learn to crawl
Before I walk away
Before I walk away

You broke my mouth
The bloody bits are spitting out
Is your grave unscathed
The worm is counting down the days

He wants to see you crawl
He wants to see you crawl
Before I walk away
Before I walk away

The reds and the whites and abused
The crucified USA
As every prophecy unfolds
Oh hell is truly on its way

As the rat, and the fly
They're searching for an alibi
As we await the wrath
They never went to Sunday Mass

They want to see us crawl
They want to see us crawl
Before they walk away
Before they walk away

The reds and the whites and abused
The crucified USA
As every prophecy unfolds
Oh hell is truly on its way

Kings Of Leon Lyrics : Sex On Fire

Lay where you're laying
Don't make a sound
I know they're watching
They're watching

All the commotion
the killing of pain
Has people talking
Talking

You
Your sex is on fire

The dark of the alley
The break of the day
Head while I'm driving
I'm driving

Soft lips are open
Them knuckles are pale
Feels like you're dying
You're dying

You
Your sex is on fire
Consumed
With what's just transpired

Hot as a fever
Rattling bones
I could just taste it
Taste it

But it's not forever
But it's just tonight
Oh we're still the greatest
The greatest
The greatest

You
your sex is on fire

You
Your sex is on fire

Consumed
With what's just transpired

And You
Your sex is on fire

Consumed
With what's just transpired

Kings Of Leon Lyrics : Use Somebody

I've been roaming around
Always looking down at all I see
Painted faces, fill the places I cant reach

You know that I could use somebody
You know that I could use somebody

Someone like you, And all you know, And how you speak
Countless lovers under cover of the street

You know that I could use somebody
You know that I could use somebody
Someone like you

Off in the night, while you live it up, I'm off to sleep
Waging wars to shape the poet and the beat
I hope it's gonna make you notice
I hope it's gonna make you notice

Someone like me
Someone like me
Someone like me, somebody

Someone like you, somebody
Someone like you, somebody
Someone like you, somebody

I've been roaming around,
Always looking down at all I see

Kings Of Leon Lyrics : Manhattan

I like to dance all night,
summons the day,
but that's how I play,
yeah that's how I play,
I said who are you?
don't matter who you are,
so we dance all night,
and dance all day

I say,
I say

We're gonna fuel the fire,
gonna stoke it up,
we're gonna sip this wine,
and pass the cup,
who needs avenues,
who needs reservoirs,
we're gonna show this town,
how to kiss these stars

I say,
I say

We're gonna hunt the kill,
gonna skin the hide
a yelp and scream,
and away I ride,
and every drop that spills,
on every plot of ground,
it's all for you,
for what you've found

I say,
I say,
I say,
I say

It's gonna take your head,
and gonna drive you home,
It's gonna keep on, keep on, keep on,
and then forever roam

Kings Of Leon Lyrics : Revelry

What a night for a dance, you know im a dancing machine
With the fire in my bones
And the sweet taste of kerosene
I get lost in the night so high dont wana come down
To face the loss of the good thing that i have found
Woo hoo hoooo
Woo hoo hoooo
In the dark of the night i hear you callin my name
With the hardest of hearts, i still feel full of pain
So i drink and i smoke and i ask you if your ever around even though it was me who drove us
Right into the ground
See the time we shared it was precious to me
But all the while i was dreamin of revelry
Gonna run baby run like a stream down a mountainside
With the wind in my back i wont ever even bat an eye
Just know it was you all along that had a hold of my heart
But the demon in me was a best friend from the start
So the time we shared it was precious to me
All the while i was dreamin of revelry
Dreamin of revelry
And i told myself oh the way you go it rained so hard it felt like snow
Everything came tumbling down on me
In the back of the woods it was dark as night
Palest pale of the old moonlight
Everythings felt so right to me
Dreamin of revelry
Dreamin of revelry
Dreamin of revelry
Dreamin of revelry

Kings Of Leon Lyrics : 17

Oh she's only seventeen
Whine whine whine, weep over everything
Bloody Mary breakfast busting up the street
Brothers fighting, when's the baby gonna sleep
Heaving ship too sails away
Said it's a culmination of a story and a goodbye session
It's a tick of our time and the tic in her head that made me feel so strange
So I could call you baby, I could call you, dammit, it's a one in a million
Oh it's the rolling of your Spanish tongue that made me wanna stay

Oh she's only seventeen
Whine whine whine, weep over everything
Bloody Mary breakfast busting up the street
Brothers fighting, when's the baby gonna sleep
Heaving ship too sails away
Said it's a culmination of a story and a goodbye session
It's a tick of our time and the tic in her head that made me feel so strange
Said I could call you baby, I could call you, dammit, it's a one in a million
Oh it's the rolling of her Spanish tongue that made me wanna stay

I could call you baby, I could call you, dammit, it's a one in a million
Oh it's the rolling of your Spanish tongue that made me wanna stay

Kings Of Leon Lyrics : Notion

I got a notion that says it doesn't feel right
Got the answer in your story today
You gave me a sign that didn't feel right

So don't knock it, don't knock it, you been here before
So don't knock it, don't knock it, you been here before

I just wanted to know if i could go home
Been rambling day after day
Everyone says they don't know

So don't knock it, don't knock it, you been there before
So don't knock it, don't knock it, you been there before

I got a notion that says it doesn't feel right
I just wanted to know if i could go home

So don't knock it, don't knock it, you been there before
So don't knock it, don't knock it, you been there before

Kings Of Leon Lyrics : I Want You

Get back on track, pick me up some bottles of booze
Fickle freshman, probably thinks he's cooler than you
A hay ride at 5, everybody's coming around
So go press your skirt, word is there's a new girl in town

I call shotgun, you can play your RnB tunes
The fellowship time, it always comes a little too soon
The land of the creeps, freshened up and babyfaced shame
Put your eyes on me, and I know a place where we can get away

To say I want you, just 'zactly like I used to
'Cause baby this is only bringing me down

Homeboy's so proud, he finally got the video proof
The night vision shows she was only ducking the truth
It's heavy I know, the black guy with the gift down below
A choke and a gag, she spit up and came back for more

And said I want you, just 'zactly like i used to
And baby this is only bringing me down
She said I want you
I want you, just 'zactly like i used to
And baby this is only bringing me down
I said I want you, just 'zactly like i used to
And baby this is only bringing me down

Kings Of Leon Lyrics : Be Somebody

Taking to the floor with the wheel to the sky
I loosen my tie, I loosen my tie
Locking down the door with the rhythm and rhyme
I loosen my tie, I loosen my tie

Trying to recall what you want me to say
I shake your way, I shake your way
Counting on the night for a beautiful day
I shake your way, I shake your way
And I say you can't get enough
No you can't get enough

Given a chance, I'm gonna be somebody
If for one dance, I'm gonna be somebody
Open the door, it's gonna make you love me
Facing the floor, I'm gonna be somebody

Now is your time and you know where you stand
With a gun in your hand, with a gun in your hand
Now I'm no longer an ordinary man
Was this your big plan, your gun in your hand
And I say you can't get enough
No you can't get enough

Given a chance, I'm gonna be somebody
If for one dance, I'm gonna be somebody
Open the door, it's gonna make you love me
Facing the floor, I'm gonna be somebody

Be somebody
Be somebody

Kings Of Leon Lyrics : Cold Desert

Im on the corner, waiting for a light to come on,
Thats when i know that your alone
Its cold in the desert, water that is easy around?
Special for girls without a sound?

You told me you loved me, that id never die alone
Hand over you heart lets go home
Everyone noticed, everyone has seen the sign
Ive always been known to cross lines

Ive never ever cryed when i was feeling down
Ive always been scared of the sound
Jesus dont love me, no one ever carryed my load
Im to young to feel this old

Is it you? is it me? ?
No body knows no body sees
No body but me.

Incubus Lyrics : Oil And Water

You and I are like oil and water
And we've been trying, trying trying
Ohhhh, to mix it up.
We've been dancing on a volcano
And we've been crying, crying, crying
Over blackened souls.
Babe, this wouldn't be the first time,
it will not be the last time.
There is no parasol that would shelter this weather.
I been smiling with anchors on my shoulders
But I've been dying, dying, dying
Ohh, Ohh, Oh to let them go.
Babe, this wouldn't be the first time,
it will not be the last time.
There is no parasol that would shelter this weather.
Babe, this wouldn't be the first time,
it will not be the last time.
We were trying to believe that everything would get better.
We've been lying to each other
Hey! Babe! Let's just call it what it is!
Oil and Water!
Oil and Water!
Oil and Water!

Incubus Lyrics : Diamonds And Coal

If it's good to complicate then both of us are doing fine.
Just keep your eyes on your part and leave me alone to mine.
If it's good to instigate, we're a fast horse, bet on us.
I'm not calling you an animal;I think we just fight too much.
Hey now, in spite of this we're doing just fine
Even diamonds start as coal.
Give us time to shine,
Even diamonds start as coal.
We're both aligned in frame of mind
But circumstance got us good.
And now you're seeing a side of me
I wish no one ever would.
Yeah, if it's right to pick a fight, we're
Fingers in a sugar bowl.
Love isn't perfect, even diamonds start as coal.
Come on, in spite of this we're doing just fine
Even diamonds start as coal.
Give us time to shine,
Even diamonds start as coal.
Even diamonds start as coal.
We're incomplete and infantine
Even diamonds start as coal.
Give it time girl, the fire feels divine
The sweetest things, they burn before they shine.
We think way too much,
Look at us losing touch!
A promise is a promise until...
Yeah in spite of this we're doing just fine
Even diamonds start as coal.
Give us time to shine,
Even diamonds start as coal.
Even diamonds start as coal.
We're incomplete and infantine
Even diamonds start as coal.

Incubus Lyrics : Rogues

I'm keeping an eye on the future
An eye on the past
And the present in my pocket
Just in case I need a door...
Into a brave new world
Where all solutions end up with my head
Buried to my neck in sand.
Enough, enough bowing down to disillusion!
Hats off and applause to Rogues and Evolution!
The ripple effect is too good not to mention
If you're not affected then you're not paying attention!
It's too good, too good, not to have an effect.
I'm keeping an eye on the pulse
An ear to the track and
Penance in a locket
I'm dropping from the highest floor
When it hits the ground
I watch it smash to pieces
Songs of liberation
Echo from the dust
The dust
Enough, enough bowing down to disillusion!
Hats off and applause to Rogues and Evolution!
The ripple effect is too good not to mention
If you're not affected then you're not paying attention!
It's too good, too good, not to have an effect!
Enough,Enough,Enough,Enough,Enough!
Enough, enough bowing down to disillusion!
Hats off and applause to Rogues and Revolution!
The ripple effect is too good not to mention
If you're not affected then you're not paying attention!
It's too good, too good, too good...yes.

Incubus Lyrics : Paper Shoes

I fly
i soar
This I adore
And then like a locomotive
The sound of your sorrow comes.
I'm tired of the way it feels
I only apologized to you to make you feel better
But I think I've outgrown that horsehair sweater.
I'd rather be alone
You're bout as reliable as paper shoes in bad weathers,
But pain will roll off like water on feathers.
You'd fly,you'd soar
But then like a locomotive
The sound of your sorrow comes.
I'm tired of the way it feels
I only apologized to you to make you feel better
But I think I've outgrown that horsehair sweater.
I'd rather on my own
You're bout as reliable as paper shoes in bad weathers,
But pain will roll off like water on feathers.
I'm tired of the way it feels
I only apologized to you to make you feel better
But I think I've outgrown that horsehair sweater.
I'd rather be alone
You're bout as reliable as paper shoes in bad weathers,
But pain will roll off like water on feathers.

Incubus Lyrics : Pendulous Threads

Mend this careless thread, it's gone askew.
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it.
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)
Or pull and see how much we can undo.
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it.
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding buller)

On a burning bridge, your options are minimal at best.
Depending on where you're standing
and how much breath is in your chest.
If it came down to it
would you high-tail home and hide?
Or dance on fire and enjoy the ride?

Mend this careless thread, it's gone askew.
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it.
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet!)
Or pull and see how much we can undo.
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it.
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet!)

At the heart of it all
that innermost, your fiery core
there;s an amassing armor
and it's building you into a bore.
Life's a match in a gas tank
don't ever mourn the ebbing tide
just dance on fire and enjoy the ride!

Hey!

Mend this careless thread, it's gone askew.
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it.
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet!)
Or pull and see how much we can undo.
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it.
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet!)

Incubus Lyrics : Earth To Bella, Pt. 2

Earth to Bella
This is a quiet emergency
Earth to Bella
There's so much more to get then wronged
Earth to Bella
You're treading water successfully
But are you really?
Don't you want to see the deep?
It's not so hard
Just forgive yourself and feel the water open in

Incubus Lyrics : Punchdrunk

Did I park my car?
If I found it I would drive so far from here
The city streets are dim
And my hands are tempted once again
To give in...

I'm having trouble seeing
I'm punch drunk and
I need to find a way back home
It'd be a miracle if you'd oblige

I will survive
On this island i am stuck
Could you correct my crooked luck tonight?

On the road my thumb is out
I'm hitchin home tonight I am without a name
Where was it that I lived?
Well nevermind just take me with you
And forget...

The lack of information
I'm punch drunk and
I need to find a way back home
It'd be a miracle if you'd oblige

I will survive
On a silent I am stuck
Could you correct my crooked luck tonight?

I will survive
Tonight I wander and I roam
Just lookin for a way back home tonight

The sun is coming up
I think I've had my fill
Wait, who the fuck are you?
Where did I park my car?
Please forgive my...

Lack of information
I'm punch drunk and
I need to find a way back home
It'd be a miracle, ohhh

I'm having trouble seeing
I'm punch drunk and
I need to find a way back home
It'd be a mircale if you'd oblige

I will survive
On this island I am stuck
Could you correct my crooked luck tonight?

I will survive
Tonight I wander and I roam
Just lookin for a way back home tonight

Spare me... a ride, a ride tonight
Spare me... a ride, a ride tonight
(On this island I am stuck
Could you correct my crooked luck tonight?)

Incubus Lyrics : Look Alive

The hardest thing is rendering a
Moment moving too fast to endure
But you abide and smile wide cause
I want to remember this for sure
You can give me guns and politics and
I'll just make a mess of it, you know
Give me all the sustinance and
The wiser wider part of me will show
Yeah yeah yeah

A picture says with sight
What we can't say with words
But you've been walking eyes to feet
In dark sunglasses
A picture will survive
So smile and look alive
The camera lens is opening
The wider angle's yours

Yeah every empty one of us have methods
To quell the madness of this pace
But yours have bled and are running south
Like jealous Dior mascara down your face
You could take that wait and all that fuss so
Now just get the best of us, you know
Give me love not suicide and
The wise wider part of me will show
Yeah yeah

A picture says with sight
What we can't say with words
But you've been walking eyes to feet
In dark sunglasses
A picture will survive
So smile and look alive
The camera lens is opening
The wider angle's yours!

Look alive... smile
Smile and look alive
Smile, smile and look alive
Yeah woah oh

A picture says with sight
What we can't say with words
But you've been walking eyes to feet
In dark sunglasses
A picture will survive
So smile and look alive

A picture says with sight
What we can't say with words
But you've been walking eyes to feet
In dark sunglasses
A picture will survive
So smile and look alive
The camera lens is opening
The wider angle's yours

Look alive
Smile, smile and look alive
Yeah, smile and look alive
Yeah woah!
