The Reeling (original) Songtext
von Passion Pit

We dug these holes we crawled into
Now they′re my home
Now here I cannot feel the wind
Can't feel the rain or cold

And I believe in gentle harmony
Oh, how I loathe all this obscenity
Is this the way my life has got to feel?
Have I a single opportunity?

Look at me, oh, look at me, is this the way I′ll always be?
Oh no, oh no
Now I think that somebody will swiftly come and kidnap me
Oh no, oh no

And everyday I lie awake and pray to God today's the day
Oh no, oh no
Here I am, oh, here I am, oh, when will someone understand?
Oh no, oh no


And all at once I feel this
Oh, how it clings to me
It reels and calls me towards some
Confounding destiny

And I can feel the madness, inch by inch
The more I run, the more I am convinced
A color all these like the branches glimpse
Just like we settle in the foggy mist

Look at me, oh, look at me, is this the way I'll always be?
Oh no, oh no
Now I think that somebody will swiftly come and kidnap me
Oh no, oh no

And everyday I lie awake and pray to God today′s the day
Oh no, oh no
Here I am, oh, here I am, oh, when will someone understand?
Oh no, oh no

Look at me, oh, look at me, is this the way I′ll always be?
Oh no, oh no
Now I think that somebody will swiftly come and kidnap me
Oh no, oh no


And everyday I lie awake and pray to God today's the day
Oh no, oh no
Here I am, oh, here I am, oh, when will someone understand?
Oh no, oh no
