Death Songtext
von White Lies

I love the feeling when we lift off
Watching the world so small below
I love the dreaming when I think of
The safety in the clouds out my window

I wonder what keeps us so high up?
Could there be a love beneath these wings?
If we suddenly fall should I scream out?
Or keep very quiet and cling to

My mouth as I′m crying?
So frightened of dying
Relax, yes, I'm trying
But fear′s got a hold on me

Yes, this fear's got a hold on me
Yes, this fear's got a hold on me

I love the quiet of the night time
When the sun is drowned in the deathly sea
I can feel my heart beating as I speed from
The sense of time catching up with me


The sky′s set out like a pathway
But who decides which route we take?
As people drift into a dreamworld
I close my eyes as my hands shake

And when I see a new day
Who′s driving this anyway?
I picture my own grave
'Cause fear′s got a hold on me

Yes, this fear's got a hold on me
Yes, this fear′s got a hold on me
Yes, this fear's got a hold on me
Yes, this fear′s got a hold on me

Floating neither up or down
I wonder when I'll hit the ground
Will the earth beneath my body shake
And cast your sleeping hearts awake?

Could it tremble stars from moonlit skies?
Could it drag a tear from your cold eyes?
I live on the right side, I sleep in the left
That's why everything′s got to be love or death


Yes, this fear′s got a hold on me
Yes, this fear's got a hold on me
Yes, this fear′s got a hold on me
Yes, this fear's got a hold on me

Yes, this fear′s got a hold on me
Yes, this fear's got a hold on me
Yes, this fear′s got a hold on me
Yes, this fear's got a hold on...
