rawest fucking florence and the machine lyrics in no particular order:
no more dreaming of the dead as if death itself was undone
want me to love you in moderation, do i look moderate to you?
this will be my last confession, âi love youâ never felt like any blessing, whisper it like itâs a secret only to condemn the one who hears it
because i am done with my graceless heart, so tonight iâm gonna cut it out and then restart
tenderest touch leaves the darkest of marks and the kindest of kisses breaks the hardest of hearts
but the loneliness never left me, i always took it with me, but i can put it down in the pleasure of your company
at seventeen i started to starve myself, i thought that love was a kind of emptiness, but at least i understood then the hunger i felt, and i didnât have to call it lonelinessÂ
the fabric of your flesh, pure as a wedding dress
itâs an even sum, itâs a melody, itâs a battle cry, itâs a symphonyÂ
but i know itâll have to drown me, before i can breathe easy
to the crowd i was crying out, and in your place there were a thousand other faces
and itâs over and iâm going under, but iâm not giving up iâm just giving in
in a moment of joy and fury i threw myself from the balcony like my grandmother, so many years before me
and itâs peaceful in the deep, cathedral where you cannot breathe
i know i seem shaky, these hands arenât fit for holding
iâm not beat up by this yet, you canât tell me to regret, been in the dark since the day we met, fire help me to forget
it seems that i have been held in this dreaming state, a tourist in the waking world, never quite awake
shower your affection, let it rain on me, pull down this mountain, drag your cities to the sea
and i did cartwheels in your honor, dancing on tiptoes, my own secret ceremonials
a year like this passes so strangely, somewhere between sorrow and bliss
in the spring, i shed my skin and it blows away with the changing winds
i swallow the sound and it swallows me whole until thereâs nothing left inside my soul
and i want you so badly, but you could be anyoneÂ
i was in the darkness, so darkness i became
