Glass Animals - I Love You So F***ing Much. Album Lyrics

Show pony, make it burn
Smile as the knife is turned
Show pony making a return
I guess he's right that you-

I'll begin at the beginning, you met in New York City
He was sitting like a prince on the stairs of his old building
And he kissed you, you were finished, two months in a minute
Married at a desk in your sundress with a witness
Had a honeymoon in Texas, went to Little Venice
Told him with your eyes, now you're crying in the clinic
And we pile into the Plymouth, haircuts in the kitchen
He always fell asleep just before the movie finished

But you don't, baby, you're alone
Echoes in your head, pressed into the floor
Two-dimensional, when's it gonna end?
Maybe when you're dead?
Maybe you're a fool, but he loved you
And he loved you in a T-shirt, mmh
All the memories inside your curves
Now you're coming back to show us that, girl
So roll those credits 'cause the sequel's gonna hurt, mmh

Show pony, make it burn
Smile as the knife is turned
Show pony making a return
As we make our way through the universe
Show pony making it burn
That's how revenge is served
Make it so cold that it hurts
I guess he's right that you live and learn

It's how the story goes, ramen on your own
Waiting by the phone, lipstick on the coat
Waiting by the door, you live in his clothes
You would make a joke that you had none of your own
All that shit I learned from you
Kindness spilled like milk and juice
So blindsided by the truth
In some way, I was sure you knew

But you don't, baby, you're alone
Echoes in your head, pressed into the floor
Two-dimensional, when's it gonna end?
Maybe when you're dead?
Maybe you're a fool, but he loved you
And he loved you in a T-shirt, mmh
All the memories inside your curves
Now you're coming back to show us that, girl
So roll those credits 'cause the sequel's gonna hurt, mmh

Show pony, make it burn
Smile as the knife is turned
Show pony making a return
As we make our way through the universe

All those nights he left you and me
There was nothing left of you, but he squeezed
All those times he did what he pleased
Boy, those scars must really run deep
And all that hurt comes out in one scream
And it pierced him like the paper receipt
That you got that time you went for food
That first night that he saw you

Show pony, make it burn
Smile as the knife is turned
Show pony making a return
As we make our way through the universe
Show pony making it burn
That's how revenge is served
Make it so cold that it hurts
I guess he's right that you live and learn

What the hell is happening? What is this?
I just got thrown in the trunk
Of a blacked-out 1999 Corolla, whoa
If anyone can hear this, do something
Speedin' like a satellite
Hog tied and stuffed behind the taillights, whoa
Come on

Hold fire, hold fire
I got second thoughts as I realise
I'm so alive, I'm so alive
I love this so much that I could cry

I'm so happy, this is just where I wanna be
I'm so happy, this is just where I wanna be
I'm so happy, this is just where I wanna be
I'm so happy, this is just where I wanna be

True love, what a f*cking beautiful shit-storm
But it makes me wonder who's been driving us
Ohh, mmh
One bump at speed and the trunk pops open
Just as I was getting comfortable
Man, are you serious? My luck, my luck
Locked eyes with the kid in the car behind us
Put a finger to my lips and I smiled
And I pull it shut
(That was a close one)

And if I survive, if I survive
I'll do this again every summertime
I'm so happy with my hands tied
Being kidnapped is my thing in life

I'm so happy, this is just where I wanna be
I'm so happy, this is just where I wanna be
I'm so happy, this is just where I wanna be
I'm so happy, this is just where I wanna be

Repo man, hey, how's it going?
Don't want to impose
All good back here, keep on rollin'
Just thought you should know
Somehow I feel safer here
Then I would do at home
Just tree-shaped air fresheners
And air from bullet holes

I'm so happy, this is just where I wanna be
I'm so happy, this is just where I wanna
I'm so happy, this is just where I wanna be
I'm so happy, this is just where I wanna be

Such a night exciting hijacking
What a lovely little time we've had
Really took me by surpri-

Three in the morning, making love
Laid on the floor of your apartment
Bird's eye view of the two of us
Face in makeup and cheap fake blood
What do you think about when you think about love?
I'm dumbstruck when you're tender, but it's
Three in the morning, be in the moment
Here in a moment, free in a moment

It tears through my head, does it haunt you too?
Diamonds in the dark in your old bedroom
You held me like my mother made me just for you
Held me so close that I broke in two
It tears through my head, does it haunt you too?
Never really said that I loved you, too
Lucky, lucky you, 'cause I'm fortune's fool
Such small words but they hit so huge

I don't think I realize
Just how much I miss you sometimes
We were young and so in love
We were just creatures in heaven
I don't think I realize
Just how much I miss you sometimes
For a moment, we were just
We were just creatures in heaven

Three in the morning, safe inside
Bury me here in your laundry pile, at
Three in the morning, be in the moment
Here in the moment, free in the moment
Three in the morning, over like that
Go slow-motion, cut it to black
'Cause it's merely a moment, here for a moment
Here is the moment, here for a moment

It tears through my head, does it haunt you too?
Diamonds in the dark in your old bedroom
You held me like my mother made me just for you
Held me so close that I broke in two
It tears through my head, does it haunt you too?
Never really said that I loved you, too
Lucky, lucky you, 'cause I'm fortune's fool
Such small words but they hit so huge

I don't think I realize
Just how much I miss you sometimes
We were young and so in love
We were just creatures in heaven
I don't think I realize
Just how much I miss you sometimes
For a moment, we were just
We were just creatures in heaven

I don't see the point in a subtle romance
Ten tons heartache sitting on your back
Scared of the crack where the light comes through
I'm only really me when I'm here with you
And it gets into your head like a cosmic zoom
Coat on the door like an old space suit
So long cowboy, you're so cool
Cash in hand with a memory of you

I don't think I realize
Just how much I miss you sometimes
We were young and so in love
We were just creatures in heaven
I don't think I realize
Just how much I miss you sometimes
For a moment, we were just
We were just creatures in heaven

Creatures in heaven
Back then, we were just
Creatures in heaven
We were just creatures in heaven

Wonderful nothing
You just want something nice
You just want substance
I just wanna cut out both your eyes
Wonderful nothing
You just want something kind
I want corruption
I think I'm the devil in disguise
Here's my state of mind
Give me destruction
Tell me I'm scrumptious
I'm a f*cking delight

I come back in with a one, two
Sucker punch in the gut, here's a tissue
Truth hurts when it points right at you
Sit down now for some ground rules, thank you
Don't talk, that's it, just one
Do you think you can handle that much?
I've just come back to life
I'm here, I'm your little ray of sunshine

Your party's so damn tired
Kinkiness pretty light and
You're dressed up like a tiger
But you're a fly stuck in my eye and

What's that face?
Oh, you got some scrapes but I'll pile drive you anyway
And I hoped and I prayed
I kept on thinking that it'd all change one day
Been a great gunfight
You drew blood, set myself on fire
But you've had your time
Oh, you've had your time, mm

Who are you talkin' to? What your daddy do?
Oh, you poor boo-boo, he's a lizard too
Hit the mini-mart, buy the bitter truth
Get a few ball gags, they're on three for two
Buy a better mood, buy a point of view
Yours went off in June 1992
Get some attitude, get some nuance too
Get me solitude and a good excuse when (yeah)

I come back in with a one, two
Sucker punch in the gut, here's a tissue
Truth hurts when it points right at you
Sit down now for some ground rules, thank you
Don't talk, that's it, just one
Do you think you can handle that much?
I've just come back to life
I'm here, I'm your little ray of sunshine

Wonderful nothing
I just want something wrong
I want indulgence
I just wanna make it out alive
Wonderful nothing
I want you to bury me alive
Put me in a dungeon
I come back in with the one, two

I come back in with a one, two
Sucker punch in the gut, here's a tissue
Truth hurts when it points right at you
Sit down now for some ground rules, thank you
Don't talk, that's it, just one
Do you think you can handle that much?
I've just come back to life
I'm here, I'm your little ray of sunshine

You got big ideas, they're as shit as you
Tryna self-combust, just for an excuse
Say I might throw up just to leave the room
I'd say, "Burn in hell," but they'd hate you too
In my mind, I'm annotating you
What is that you're wearing? Oh, it's too much booze
Did your mum tell you close it when you chew?
Now scuttle home, go and lick your wounds
I'm a fly inside of your facial goop
I'm a little hair sat inside your soup
There's the rub, maybe I'm the fool
I'm tryna stop, but I still love you

Love, do you want love? Do you want lust?
Say you don't know
Maybe you just like the control, like it all cold
But I like ya, like ya, like you're drugs
Sit in my blood, maybe too much, never enough
I am your dog, I'm on your floor, all that you want
But I like ya, like ya, like you're drugs

You get all worked up
Loving you, but it's not enough
Loving you from the airlock of
Your heart, from airlock one
Fear pulls you from my arms
It's a reckless abandon
One look and it's all gone
All the air from the bottom of my lungs

Water, running down my face
Water, running different ways
Water, like a billion waves
Water, just a tear in space
Water, running down my face
Water, running different ways
Water, like a billion waves
Water, just a tear in space

Ooh, too late, my love
You blew me into stardust
Ooh, but I made it, just
Dangling like a thread from you
I climb into your walls
I'm where the spiders go
I'm here, but you aren't sure
What are you waiting for?
Stretch me like leather rope
Make me invisible
Shape me into your form
What are you waiting for?

Hostage, so in love
It's an airless black-chasm
You turn the airlock on
You turn the airlock on
Object disappearance
It's a true phenomenon
Forget me and I'm gone
I'm slipping, no-no-no-no-no

Water, running down my face
Water, running different ways
Water, like a billion waves
Water, just a tear in space
Water, running down my face
Water, running different ways
Water, like a billion waves
Water, just a tear in space

I can't make you fall in love again
I can't give you back your innocence
Freedom at last, I know you wanted it
But freedom don't last when you've got no one left

That's just one more thing about you
I don't need in my life
Never gave me goodbye
But you were gone in high school
You walked out of my life
I still wonder sometimes
What would we have been like
But you were gone in

That's just one more thing about you
I don't need in my life
Never gave me goodbye
But you were gone in high school
You walked out of my life
I still wonder sometimes
What would we have been like
But you were gone in

I can't make you fall in love again
I can't take away your bitterness
I can't make you fall in love again
I can't give you back your tenderness

Sunday afternoons
Go Adamson's Lagoon
Your blurry old tattoos
My faded jelly shoes
A box of apple juice
I'm always late for school

It was never good enough
We were never good enough
It was never really you
So I can't make you fall in love again

That's just one more thing about you
I don't need in my life
Never gave me goodbye
But you were gone in high school
You walked out of my life
I still wonder sometimes
What would we have been like
But you were gone in

That's just one more thing about you
I don't need in my life
Never gave me goodbye
But you were gone in high school
You walked out of my life
I still wonder sometimes
What would we have been like?
But you were gone in

The light that afternoon
Exposed the cracks in you
The ones you filled with dust
You're looking so much older
Shoulders folded over
Paint curled in the sun

Now Friday nights alone
They see you in Flamingo's
For the early show
There's lipstick on your throat
You wore too much cologne
And then you stumble home

I always thought it was
(I always thought it was)
Only the two of us
(Only the two of us)
But I saw another one
(I saw another one)
Split like a thunderstruck
Tree trunk or maybe the
Splits in your knuckles
The split lip you lick too much

Running around and we're playing the blame game
Black Swan, I'll never see you the same way
Which one is you, oh, is anything true?
Which one is you, oh, is anything true?
And what should I do? Just pretend it's the same, same?
Once you get bit, a little bit of the pain stays
Ache in the tooth on a sweet afternoon
A fly in the room you can't get with your shoe

And you're just two-sided
So goddamn indecisive, oh
And it's deep in inside you
I think I just found the bomb
Baby, how do you hide it so?
How do you live like this? Oh
When you get home, who'll I get?
I don't know when you'll explode

You switch it off
You switch it on
I'm sat there holding on for the bomb
You switch it off
You switch it on
I'm sat there holding on for the bomb

You say there's nothing wrong
(You say there's nothing wrong)
I peel myself off the wall
(I peel myself off the wall)
Thought you brought butter cups
Whoa, that's a Tommy gun
Meat hooks and diamond dust
Ghost Rider, here he comes

Running around and we're playing the blame game
Black Swan, I'll never see you the same way
Which one is you, oh, is anything true?
Which one is you, oh, is anything true?
And what should I do? Just pretend it's the same, same?
Once you get bit, a little bit of the pain stays
Ache in the tooth on a sweet afternoon
A fly in the room you can't get with your shoe

And you're just two-sided
So goddamn indecisive, oh
And it's deep in inside you
I think I just found the bomb
Baby, how do you hide it so?
How do you live like this? Oh
When you get home, who'll I get?
I don't know when you'll explode

Maybe it's just a strange time
That I found you in your life
Maybe I can learn to like
All that I find terrifying
Maybe this is how it is
Maybe this is most exciting
Maybe I'll find a safe distance
'Cause I know there's a bomb in this

And you're just two-sided
So goddamn indecisive, oh
And it's deep in inside you
I think I just found the bomb
Baby, how do you hide it so?
How do you live like this? Oh
When you get home, who'll I get?
I don't know when you'll explode

You switch it off
You switch it on
I'm sat there holding on for the bomb
You switch it off
You switch it on
I'm sat there holding on for the bomb

(White roses in the)
(Red dirt)
(You said, "It's so beautiful it-")

White roses in the red dirt
You said, "It's so beautiful it hurts"
And I knew it and my heart burst
I said, "It was beautiful at first," but

White roses in the red dirt
You said, "It's so beautiful it hurts"
And I knew it and my heart burst
You're so much more than I deserve, but

Long ago
Probably in a galaxy not far from home
I bet there's a version where we're happier
And I didn't have to find a way to go
Oh, wouldn't that be lovely?
You would torture me
Whisper me reasons that you hated me
Say it in the way that makes my knees go weak
And let me dangle from you like a piece of meat
Oh, wouldn't that be lovely?

But I think we're formed from old Lego
In a bedside drawer where the stray things go
And I think we're formed from old Play-Doh
That you stole one night from a corner store and

White roses in the red dirt
You said, "It's so beautiful it hurts"
And I knew it and my heart burst
I said, "It was beautiful at first," but

One day you'll move on
Put me in a drawer
I'll just be a ghost in photos on your phone
And you'll see a sunny side
Shows I never liked
You can put 'em on, put the clap track in your life

'Cause I lose all your socks, I tremble when I talk
I veer left when I walk, really? This is what you want?
'Cause you'll find a better one, someone functional
And slowly I'll dissolve into echoes in your walls

But I think we're formed from old Lego
In a bedside drawer where the stray things go
And I think we're formed from old Play-Doh
That you stole one night from a corner store and

White roses in the red dirt
You said, "It's so beautiful it hurts"
And I knew it and my heart burst
I said, "It was beautiful at first," but

White roses in the red dirt
You said, "It's so beautiful it hurts"
And I knew it and my heart burst
You're so much more than I deserve, but

I'm a dreamer too
I'm a dreamer too
Paint over the sad bits, I know that you do 'cause
Mh, everlasting in a different moon
There's a perfect side to me and you

White roses in the red dirt
You said, "It's so beautiful it hurts"
And I knew it and my heart burst
I said, "It was beautiful at first," but

White roses in the red dirt
You said, "It's so beautiful it hurts"
And I knew it and my heart burst
You're so much more than I deserve

(White roses in the)
(Red dirt)
(You said, "It's so beautiful it-")

(White roses in the)
(Red dirt)
(You said, "It's so beautiful it hurts")

I swear that I tried, swear that I tried
Just to get it all the right way
Somehow I find every time
That I shit the bed anyway
The Internet said, Internet said
It would take a firm commitment, ooh
But I got away definitely
That I can make it painless
I'm thinking this, I'm thinking this
Thinking I should fake my own death

There's no fixing this
Thanks for all the faith
I'll go and you'll forget this
'Cause them's the consequences, ooh

I'm going on the run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run

Never look for trouble, but I keep steppin' in it
I wish I could keep my loafers clean for a minute
But the baggage keeps on comin' like your glitter in the kitchen
All the sand inside my shoe that I can't quite get rid of
Now I'm burnin' rubber with the wind in my face
I got fake mustaches, keep a mu' every day
Thirty million hundred thousand lightyears away
But the sadness is behind me, with his own will he came
Deep in Alabama and I cruise faster than
Faster than them memories of you if I can
Don't abort the mission, they don't hate my decision
And you'll feel better if you think I sleep with the fishes

There's no fixing this
Thanks for all the faith
I'll go and you'll forget this
'Cause them's the consequences, ooh

On the run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run

For two moments, I felt so great
'Cause there's no more worries, no spinning plates
Somehow I feel more than ten feet
Taller instantaneously
It all seems small and so far away
And I miss that noise you make when you sleep
I turn back now, my scars and my stains
And I'm back before you know I escaped

There's no fixing this
Thanks for all the faith
I'll go and you'll forget this
'Cause them's the consequences, ooh

I'm going on the run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run
Run, on the run, on the run, on the, on the run

(Run)

Save me now, close the door
Put on a sitcom and stare at my toes
I've had enough of today's emotions
Why can't they just leave me alone

Am I acting normal? Am I being fun?
Am I being everything all at once?
Did I say too little? Did I say too much?
I wanna scream at the top of my lungs

You get lost in the ocean
What do you do when you are so broken?
The flood, the feeling comes over
How are you so loved and so lonesome?
You get lost in the ocean
But you know I'd do anything for you, babe
And now I'm here and I'm hoping
For sun in the afternoon

Chew me up, stub me out
Heel-press me down into the ground
It's the third time that I showered today
Fog on the glass where I drew something

Up comes the water, can't see the coast
My heart is dragging on the ocean floor
Laughing and crying, staring at my lunch
I wanna scream at the top of my lungs

You get lost in the ocean
What do you do when you are so broken?
The flood, the feeling comes over
How are you so loved and so lonesome?
You get lost in the ocean
But you know I'd do anything for you, babe
And now I'm here and I'm hoping
For sun in the afternoon

My monologue's out of control
I found the hole where the happiness goes
Lump in my throat and a throat in my tongue
I'm going to scream at the top of my lungs

You get lost in the ocean
What do you do when you are so broken?
The flood, the feeling comes over
How are you so loved and so lonesome?
You get lost in the ocean
But you know I'd do anything for you, babe
And now I'm here and I'm hoping
For sun in the afternoon

For sun in the afternoon
For sun in the afternoon

You get lost in the ocean
What do you do when you are so broken?
The flood, the feeling comes over
How are you so loved and so lonesome?
You get lost in the ocean
But you know I'd do anything for you, babe
And now I'm here and I'm hoping
For sun in the afternoon
