  • How deeply are you sleeping
    Or are you still awake?
    A good friend told me
    You've been staying out so late

    Be careful my darling
    Be careful of what it takes
    What I've seen so far
    The good ones always seems to break

    I was screaming at my father
    And you were screaming at me
    I can feel your anger
    From way across the sea

    I was kissing strangers
    I was causing such a scene
    Oh the heart it hurts
    Such and image of unimaginable things

    Grab me by my ankles
    I've been flying for too long
    I couldn't hide from the thunder
    In the sky full of song

    And I want you so badly
    But you could be anyone
    I couldn't hide from the thunder
    In the sky full of song

    Hold me down, I'm so tired now
    Aim your arrow at the sky
    Take me down, I'm too tired now
    Leave me where I lie

    And I can tell that I'm in trouble
    When the music starts to play
    And the cities without seasons
    It keeps raining in LA

    I feel like I'm about to fall
    The room begins to sway
    And I can hear the sirens
    But I can't walk away

    Grab me by my ankles
    I've been flying for too long
    I couldn't hide from the thunder
    In the sky full of song

    And I want you so badly
    But you could be anyone
    I couldn't hide from the thunder
    In the sky full of song

    Hold me down, I'm so tired now
    Aim your arrow at the sky
    Take me down, I'm too tired now
    Leave me where I lie

    I thought that I was flying
    But maybe I'm dying tonight
    I thought that I was flying
    But maybe I'm dying tonight

    I thought that I was flying
    But maybe I'm dying tonight
    I thought that I was flying
    But maybe I'm dying tonight

    Hold me down, I'm so tired now
    Aim your arrow at the sky
    Take me down, I'm too tired now
    Leave me where I lie (fire)

    Hold me down, I'm so tired now
    Aim your arrow at the sky
    Take me down, I'm too tired now
    Leave me where I lie (fire) Writer/s: Emile Haynie, Florence Leontine Mary Welch, Thomas Wayland Bartlett
