Phantogram - Three Album Lyrics

Funeral Pyre

Light in the sky
Day into night
Out the sea, paralyzed
All I see is your eyes

My funeral pyre
My ship of fire
As it sinks, I rise
All I see is your eyes

Your eyes, your eyes...

Light in the sky
In the sky

Same Old Blues

And this is nothing new,
It's just the same old blues
Like a devil on my shoulder,
Nothing left to lose
You can never break my heart
Everything will fall apart
You can never save my soul
I think it's time to let me go

I keep on having this dream
Where I'm stuck in a hole and I can't get out
There's always something that's pulling me down, down, down
And this is nothing new,
It's just the same old blue
And this is nothing new
It's just the same old blues

Today I lost my future to the past
I got nobody left, I'm going nowhere fast
Never getting far away enough
Like a shadow on the sidewalk
I can't shake it off
You can never change my mind
I think I'm running out of time
You can never save my soul
I think it's time to let me go

I keep on having this dream
Where I'm stuck in a hole and I can't get out
There's always something that's pulling me down, down, down
My heart is down on it's knees so I try, oh I try
But it's too late now
There's always something that's pulling me down, down, down

I keep on having this dream
Where I'm stuck in a hole and I can't get out
There's always something that's pulling me down, down, down
My heart is down on its knees
And no one is hearing me screaming
There's always something that's pulling me down, down, down

And this is nothing new
It's just the same old blues
And this is nothing new
It's just the same old blues

You Don't Get Me High Anymore

I don't like staying at home
When the moon is bleeding red
Woke up stoned in the backseat
From a dream where my teeth fell out of my head

Cut it up, cut it up, yeah
Everybody's on something here
My godsend chemical best friend
Skeleton whispering in my ear

Walk with me to the end
Stare with me into the abyss
Do you feel like letting go?
I wonder how far down it is

Nothing is fun
Not like before
You don't get me high anymore
Used to take one
Now it's takes four
You don't get me high anymore

Runnin' through emergency rooms
Spinning wheels and ceiling fans
My hand shake cellophane landscape
Mannequin (fakin' it) the best I can.

It's Cadillac, Cadillac red
No hands on the steering wheel
I'm crashing this save-a-ho
Puppet show
UFO
Obliterate the way I feel

Walk with me to the end
Stare with me into the abyss
Do you feel like letting go?
I wonder how far down it is

Nothing is fun
Not like before
You don't get me high anymore
Used to take one
Now it's takes four
You don't get me high anymore
You don't get me high anymore
You don't get me high anymore

Walk with me to the end
Stare with me into the abyss
Do you feel like letting go?
I wonder how far down it is

Nothing is fun
Not like before
You don't get me high anymore
Used to take one
Now it's takes four
You don't get me high anymore

(high anymore)
(you don't get me, you don't get me high anymore)
You don't get me high anymore
(high anymore)
(you don't get me, you don't get me high anymore)
You don't get me high anymore

Cruel World

I'm putting you out of your misery
Cause darling you're dragging me down
I wish I could say that I'm sorry
But I'm over that, now I'm taking you out
It's a cruel, cruel world

I used to see beauty in people
But now I see muscle and bones
You know I never wanted to hurt you
But I'm sorry, my friend, this is the end

So I'm saying my goodbyes
Goodbye to my good side
It only ever got me hurt
And I finally learned
It's a cruel, cruel world
It's a cruel, cruel world

Erase you from my mind
I'm sorry, but I
I'm cutting all the ties

So I'm saying my goodbyes
Goodbye to my good side
It only ever got me hurt
And I finally learned
It's a cruel, cruel world
It's a cruel, cruel world
Cruel, cruel world

Barking Dog

Head on the bathroom floor
Tackling in my demon voice
Millions of years go by
Memories of peace and love
Killing to reconstruct
And what will the label do?
Hurt people hurt people too

I'm sorry for what I've done

Head on the bathroom floor
Tackling in your demon voice
Millions of years go by
Memories of peace and love
Talking to the barking dog
Never mind the barking dog
Never mind the barking dog
Millions of years go by...

Head on the bathroom floor
Tackling in your demon voice
Millions of years go by
Memories of peace and love

I'm sorry for what I've done
And hurt people hurt people too
Hurt people hurt people too
Never mind the walking dog
Never mind the walking dog
Never mind the walking dog

You're Mine

You don't talk to no one, don't you look at nothin'
Focus on me, look into my eyes
Come a little closer, let me tell you somethin'
Eat your ego, honey, swallow your pride
You don't talk to no one, don't you look at nothin'
Focus on me, look into my eyes
Come a little closer, let me tell you somethin'
You ain't goin' anywhere, 'cause you're mine

'Cause you're mine
'Cause you're mine
'Cause you're mine

I used to be a rifle, yeah I had my distance
Whistling like a bullet in the sky
I used to be a psycho, yeah I had my demons
Crawling like a spider up my spine
I spotted you the second I walked in the building
I knew that you would let me get you high
I wanna hear the things you say when no one's listening
But that don't matter anyway, 'cause you're mine

'Cause you're mine
'Cause you're mine
'Cause you're mine

No one's gonna love you
No one's gonna touch you
No one's gonna look at you the way I do
No one's gonna save you
Build you up and break you
I'm the one you pray to every night 'cause you're mine

'Cause you're mine
'Cause you're mine
'Cause you're mine
'Cause you're mine
'Cause you're mine
'Cause you're mine
'Cause you're mine

You don't talk to no one, don't you look at nothin'

Answer

And you can't hold me down
'Cause I need an answer
'Cause I need an answer, love
And you say way too much
But still I need an answer, love
But still I need an answer, love

Kindly be kind,
wipe all the dirt from my eyes
I need an answer,
I need an answer

Been up until dawn and all of my heroes are gone, babe
But I know they're out there
I know they're out there

They say be with the one that you love
Be with the one that you love
I need an answer,
I need an answer

They say be with the one that you love
Be with the one that you love
I can't make you stop, can't make you stop
Can't make you stop when you're already gone

And you can't hold me down
'Cause I need an answer
'Cause I need an answer, love
And you say way too much
But I still need an answer, love
But I still need an answer, love

Kindly be kind,
wipe all the dirt from my eyes
I need an answer
I need an answer

Run Run Blood

Hey wolf, there's lions in here
There's lions in here, there's lions in here
Hey wolf, just see there's no fear
Just see it's no fair, there are lions in here

Extra, extra, read all about it
You think you slow me down? I highly doubt it
I own the paperboys, and you're the buyer
Your world is my world now to live and die in

Does anybody need to eat?
Does anybody need to breathe?
Got you blindfolded on your knees
Run, run, run
Run, run, blood

Follow me into a swarm of bees
Swallow everything you don't believe
Drink away all of your memories
Say goodbye to your family

It's bigger than life
It's bigger than love
It's bigger than us
Bigger than all
It's bigger than life
It's bigger than love
It's bigger than us
Bigger than all

Hey wolf, there's lions in here
There's lions in here, there's lions in here
Hey wolf, just see there's no fear
Just see it's no fair, there are lions in here

Quicksand, quicksand
What's so surprising?
Make your decision, man
Sinking or rising?
Sew up your eyelids
Now you're divided
Money for loyalty, that's how I like it

Does anybody need to eat?
Does anybody need to breathe?
Got you blindfolded on your knees
Run, run, run
Run, run, blood

Follow me into a swarm of bees
Swallow everything you don't believe
Drink away all of your memories
Say goodbye to your family

It's bigger than life
It's bigger than love
It's bigger than us
Bigger than all
It's bigger than life
It's bigger than love
It's bigger than us
Bigger than all

Follow me into a swarm of bees
Swallow everything you don't believe
Drink away all of your memories
Say goodbye to your family

It's bigger than life
It's bigger than love
It's bigger than us
Bigger than all
It's bigger than life
It's bigger than love
It's bigger than us
Bigger than all

Hey wolf, there's lions in here
There's lions in here, there are lions in here
Hey wolf, just see there's no fear
Just see it's no fair, there are lions in here
Hey wolf, there's lions in here
There's lions in here, there are lions in here
Hey wolf, just see there's no fear
Just see it's no fair, there are lions in here

Destroyer

Empty, heavy eyes
Drift away to my heaven
Whatever waits inside
I'm just a ghost you think you know
Was there something that you wanted to say?
Goodbye

My time has come
My head is falling off
I can kill you all
And finally be alone
Destroyer, destroyer

Keep you here a while
And if I'm never forgiven
You can't say I didn't try
I tried, I tried to save so many lives
I guess my heart got carried away
I guess the dark turned off the light
Was there something that you wanted to say?
Goodbye

My time has come
My head is falling off
I can kill you all
And finally be alone
Destroyer, destroyer

My time has come
My head is falling off
I can kill you all
And finally be alone

I am alone, I am alone
Destroyer, destroyer
I am alone, I am alone
Destroyer, destroyer
