Foster The People - Sacred Hearts Club Album Lyrics

What you mean, what you mean?
What you mean, man, what you mean?
What you mean, yeah, what you see?
What you see, yeah, oh yeah

Well I need a little something to pull my head off
Need a little something to pull my head off, yeah
Need a little something
Because I've been running from the truth
Will never lose
Lies come from loose teeth
Tied to the noose
Climbing up my own tree hoping it can hold
All the things I've seen but I've chosen to ignore
Well, I said, well I believe I've been well fed, yeah
But the wolf's not dead

Say what you love, it's alright
Don't be afraid to find the light
Embrace the day, like night
We hear the fire
We all go wild again
And you have the name
Of someone I love
You said, just keep it true
Lift up your name
Seasons change
You know it'll never be the same
We'll see the sun again
Before it fades
I just wanna say that I love you

Pay the man, pay the man
Got to pay the man
Run as fast as you can
Call out to God, praise to the Most High
Call out for help cause I'm playing with fire
Call out to mountains till my voice goes faint
Echoes through time then goes back with new strength

And when it's raining
We're sailing
Oh yeah, we're sailing
We're sailing

I'm off the leash
I go to war for peace
Must've been touching everything that I can
I've got blood on my hands
Guess I'm going deaf with the cry of this sin
Please forgive me I don't understand
We all believe we've been well fed, yeah

The deaf man heard what the mute man said
Then they all followed where the blind man led

Say what you love, it's alright
Don't be afraid to find the light
Embrace the day, like night
We hear the fire
We all go wild again
And you have the name
Of someone I love
You said, just keep it true
Lift up your name
Seasons change
You know it'll never be the same
We'll see the sun again
Before it fades
I just wanna say that I love you

(Pay the man, pay the man, pay the man)
Pay the man, you got to pay the man
Pay the man, you got to pay the man
Pay the man
I was laughing real hard until my teeth fell out
Laughing real hard until my teeth fell out
Was laughing real hard but my teeth fell out
Need a little something, yeah
Need a little something
(A little something, little something, little something)

You said, just keep it true
Lift up your name
Seasons change
You know it'll never be the same
We'll see the sun again
Before it fades
I just wanna say that I love you

Can't you see
Can't see me
Can't see me
Can't see me
And can't see me
Can't see me
We all run when the light comes on
Am I wrong, for wanting it all?
But I warned you

Just close your eyes
We're gonna run this light
We live our lives
Yeah, we're not wasting time
Baby, we lost our minds
We're gonna get, gonna get
Get what we can
We're not doing it for the money
Doing it for the money
Doing it for the money
Doing it for the money

Is it wrong to rock the booze?
We gotta strike a match and light the fuse
Now I'm never looking back
It's time to leave the future with the past

I said it doesn't matter where I go
I am calling all the poets in the battle
I am shouting to the world
Let them know that we won't
Be afraid to step into the fight
When you can't see the light

So close your eyes
We're gonna run this light
We live our lives
Yeah, we're not wasting time
Baby, we lost our minds
We're gonna get, gonna get
Get what we can
We're not doing it for the money
Doing it for the money
Doing it for the money
Doing it for the money

But if you die I'm a soldier up
You better learn to shoot or learn to duck
There's no retreat and no escape
If we can dream then why are we wide awake?

I said it doesn't matter where I go
I am calling all the prophets into the battle
I am never going to change who I am
I won't feel the pressure on my back
I said it doesn't matter where I go
I am staring down the barrel of a gun
We are shouting to the world
Let them know that we are
Not afraid to step into the fight
When we can't see the light

So close your eyes
We're gonna run this light
We live our lives
Yeah, we're not wasting time
Baby, we lost our minds
We're gonna get, gonna get
Get what we can
We're not doing it for the money
Doing it for the money
Doing it for the money
Doing it for the money

They say don't rush
And I'm addicted
I don't understand it
The winner starts kill switch
Saying what I want to
The pleasure comes with pain too
Mostly it's another fight
When it's slowly coming after you

So close your eyes
We're gonna run this light
We live our lives
Yeah, we're not wasting time
Baby, we lost our minds
We're gonna get, gonna get
Get what we can
We're not doing it for the money
Doing it for the money
Doing it for the money
Doing it for the money

Yeah, it's over, it's over
I'm circling these vultures
Got me prayin', man, this hunger
Feelin' somethin' rotten
Last time I saw you, said "What's up?"
And pushed right through
Then I tried to catch you
But we're always on the move
And now it's over, we're sober
Symptoms of the culture
And the night ain't gettin' younger
Last call's around the corner
Feelin' kinda tempted
And I'm pourin' out the truth
Just fadin' out these talkers
'Cause now all I want is you, I'm saying

Come over here and sit next to me
We can see where things go naturally
Just say the word and I'll part the sea
Just come over here and sit next to me, ooh, ooh, ooh
And I'll take you high
High (ooh, ooh, ooh)

Well, I ain't frontin' my intention
Got your man outlined in chalk
It's a midnight intervention
Got no plans to make it stop
Last time I saw you
Said you wanna keep it light
But I'm here to tell you
I'm not tryna change your mind
It's alright, ooh
It's alright, ooh

Yeah, come over here and sit next to me
We can see where things go naturally
Just say the word and I'll part the sea
Just come over here and sit next to me, ooh, ooh, ooh
And I'll take you high
High
High
High

It's alright
It's alright
Yeah, it's alright
Yeah, it's alright

So come over here and sit next to me
We can see where things go naturally
Just say the word and I'll part the sea, mm
Just come over here and sit next to me, ooh, ooh, ooh

It's alright

You are our secret
It's worth keeping
And now I'm keeping my mouth shut
On the weekends
I won't hang out with anybody else
The pavement
Always baking
What's it want from me?
And I keep falling backwards
Looking for relief
Want to be free

I've been counting all the minutes
And the days have been counting me

I want to live my life again
But you won't
I'll never understand the waves
But you do
I didn't know I was afraid
But you do
I want to do it again

Well I've been sleeping
Waiting for something
But to feel nothing
At all, avoid the call
Sometimes I'm reckless
Sometimes misdirected
Sometimes when I'm tested
I tend to do nothing at all

When I'm alone
There's a ghost that keeps talking
And I know there's gotta be more
For sure

I want to live my life again
But you won't
I'll never understand the wind
But you do
I didn't know I was afraid
But you do
I want to do it again

I've been numb in my thoughts for hours
I know you wanted to save me from myself
We've been wilting and young for seeds
And I can't compete
Until I'm strung to the field
What's real?

I want to live my life again
But you won't
I'll never understand the wind
But you do
I didn't know I was afraid
But you do
I want to do it again

Do you want to live forever?
Do you want to live forever?
I would

All my friends are, they're on vacation
But I'm just stuck here in this parking lot
Well, looking for a mirror, I'm looking at a screen
These pixelated dreams are blowing up my pocket
I'll find some action, and cut the scene
I'm on a merry-go-round, I'm in a washing machine
Just spinning

All of my friends, they don't do any favors
Unless they're partyin', then they got all of 'em
All of my friends, they blow all of the paycheck
They got no money, because they're dumb and reckless

But I love my friends, I love my friends
We've got each other, don't need no others
All of my friends, I love my friends
We're a disaster, yeah you know it's true

We love being caught up in the action
Eating fire and smoke
It's so pleasing to go crashing all alone
You know it's nothing new, yeah we've been here before
But let's take it to my house 'cause I know I want more

All of my friends, they're crawling on the weekend
Looking for something 'cause there's nothing to do
And all my friends, they always end up leaving
For something better when it's time to cruise

I love my friends, I love my friends
We've got each other, don't need no others
All of my friends, I love my friends
We're a disaster, yeah you know it's true

Pull up on Thursday, we'll make you groove again
Even though the days feel long and the nights feel just the same
Well I believe that forced a drink and the stars stay satisfied
To live in a safer place where there's peaceful paradise

All of my friends, I love my friends
We're a disaster, yeah you know it's true
We're a disaster
We're a disaster, yeah you know it's true
We're a disaster
We're a disaster, yeah you know it's true

Doctor Afro Mal-Funkenstein

Doctor Funkenstein

A circuit lightning
You glisten back
It started shifts, started shift of love
One morning I did try
To call him by his name
But my men didn't know when to come around

How long, how long will we try to make it together
It's too long, it's too long, we could die, just hanging here forever
Hold on, hold on we'll get by as static space lovers
And we'll be fine circling each other

We're placing bets, saying "praise the Lord"
Just at eclipse, leave me wanting more
Well don't float too far
'Cause I won't live without your constellation
Reach out my love
'Cause I can't hold on forever

I'll try
And we'll never have to say goodbye

How long, how long will we try to make it together
It's too long, it's too long, we could die, just hanging here forever
Hold on, hold on we'll get by as static space lovers
And we'll be fine circling each other

It's too long, too long, we could die, just hanging here forever
Hold on, hold on and we'll get by as static space lovers
And we'll be fine circling each other

I could never be like you
I don't ever talk like that
Smiling with a sparkling drink
And stumbling in your lipstick mess
Molly was the loss of this
Yeah, it was a tragedy
But you keep hanging on
With a vacant look, just waiting around
For someone to take you home

And I know you know I'm not the one
I'm sorry I was late, I didn't wanna come

Ah!
Oh no, man, that it's just that looks fun
Ooh

My eyes are wandering
Can we just eat the news?
And dance around the room
In a scattered point of views
Well take my hand and breathe
Babe, just count to three
I wish that I could blink
And turn all your words into ice cubes
So I could fill my drink

And I know you know I'm not the one
I'm sorry I was late
Next time I just won't come

Ah!
Oh man, I think I gotta run!
Ooh

Well hey, what's that called?
When you're sitting on your couch
And having fun, just being by yourself
Wondering why
We can't commit to love
The things that we got
We always want more of

I know you'd rather have me fake it
But I'm not gonna make it

Ah!
Yeah yeah yeah, man I gotta run!
Ooh

I had been hopeful that
I would have the time to get closer to you
If you wanted me to
I feel like crying the more I think about the times that I tried
To say the things I was thinking of
At the time

Parading to the masses, we're coming so fresh to death
I've been stealing looks from shadows you conjure with your purse
Yeah, you're walking in stilettos, but your nose is bleeding out
I've been running from the devil, but the devil's on my back
I'm decreasing, took a leave of absence from the war
If the wall is coming down, then we gotta press the pedal
Got my hands up in the air, I'm saying I can't breathe
I got my hands up in the air, I'm saying

Hey, man, get away from me
Yeah, hey, man, get away from me
Oh yeah

Never ask for any favours, nothing I want from you
I've been looking for an answer to keep me from falling through
But I'm waiting for the voice to speak, 'cause I can't see
I hope we'll hear the sound eventually

I felt their claws obstruct and refuse refugees in the new Rome
Lock our voices in the oven like s-Sylvia at home
My eyes are on the world, and my hands anxious to feel something real
True colours tend to glisten and then reveal

Where's the love?
And why are we so far from love?

Chased by badges, ducking lights
Push the dagger when it's right
Martial law, inshallah, mi casa es tuya
Ghosting like I'm Daniel Johnston, and I'm locked up in the basement
Where Satan lies in satin tweets and realigns his facelift
The criminals are laughing with their empty, toothless faces
We melted all our gold to recommence our idol worship
We all pretend one day we'll be the greatest of the Gatsbys
Growling mouths with rabies and loyal like Sid and Nancy

Hey, man, get away from me
You pretend you got control
Hey, man, get away from me

I never asked for any favours, nothing I want from you
Well, I've been praying for an answer to keep me from falling through
Yeah, I'm waiting for the voice to speak, 'cause I can't see
Oh, we'll hear the sound eventually
We'll hear the sound, we'll hear the sound eventually

Face me and embrace the pressure
We were made for another time
(When you need me I'll be there)
(Say my name, yeah I'm right here)
Let's drift away in fits of pleasure
You're a beautiful design
(Say you need me face your fears)
(Say my name, yeah I'm right here)
Yeah, I'm just floating with my hands up
All street and gold dust
Caught up in the fluff fat
Tell me when I've crossed the line
(When you need me I'll be there)
(Say my name and I'll appear)
Been living in another fall
Trash caught me tripping out
Love, please open up
I've been gone too long
(When you need me I'll appear)
(Say my name, yeah I'm right here)

I'll fall into you when you give in to me
You can be my only woman whose control I won't hold back
We're living the truth, we're chasing the dream
Just giving up both, yeah giving up control

I've been looking for an answer
I've been running out of time
I've been looking for an answer
I've been waiting for a sign
Just say that you'll be there

Free your self-reflective color
Yeah I know how to make you shine
(When you need me I'll be there)
(Say my name, yeah I'm right here)
Face your fate you pretty faker
Lay back and catch the light
(Say you need me, face your fears)
(Say my name, yeah I'm right here)
Yeah I'm just floating with my hands up
All street and gold dust
Love, please open up
Yeah, I've been gone too long
When I drift away it feels so wrong

I'll fall into you when you give in to me
You can be my only woman whose control I won't hold back
We're living the truth, we're chasing the dream
Just giving up both, yeah giving up control

Just say that you'll be there
Just say that you'll be there

I'll fall into you, just give in to me
This will be my only
I'll fall into you, just give in to me
Yeah I'm giving up control, now I'm giving up control
This will be my only
Yeah I'm giving up control

If age is a trap
I wonder why I hold back
Mistakes, mistake to make me laugh
Only time can answer that

Sail on in
Beautiful is your life
Sail on in
I want to live in your love
Forever

I'm done, I'm giving up control
So hold on, never let me go
I know we're not invincible
So I want to live
Live for something more

Sail on in
Beautiful is your life
Soak it in
I want to live in your love
Forever

And I won't be afraid to never know
When the night will come and take us home
And people change, we fade from youth
And evolve into eternal life
Don't slip away, I'm begging you
To let me sing with angels

Wake the sleeping from their dreaming
We all want more, we all want more
Saints will sing and hearts are beating
Saying we all want more, we all want more
