Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
And if the snow buries my
My neighborhood
And if my parents are crying
Then I'll dig a tunnel from my window to yours
Yeah, a tunnel from my window to yours
[Verse 2]
You climb out the chimney and meet me in the middle
The middle of the town
And since there's no one else around, we let our hair grow long
And forget all we used to know
Then our skin gets thicker from living out in the snow
[Chorus]
You change all the lead, sleeping in my head
As the day grows dim, I hear you sing a golden hymn
[Verse 3]
Then we tried to name our babies but we forgot all the names that
The names we used to know
But sometimes we remember our bedrooms and our parents' bedrooms
And the bedrooms of our friends
Then we think of our parents, well, what ever happened to them?
[Chorus]
You change all the lead, sleeping in my head to gold
As the day grows dim, I hear you sing a golden hymn
It's the song I've been trying to sing
[Outro]
Purify the colors, purify my mind
Purify the colors, purify my mind
And spread the ashes of the colors over this heart of mine
Neighborhood #2 (Laïka) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
And if the snow buries my
My neighborhood
And if my parents are crying
Then I'll dig a tunnel from my window to yours
Yeah, a tunnel from my window to yours
[Verse 2]
You climb out the chimney and meet me in the middle
The middle of the town
And since there's no one else around, we let our hair grow long
And forget all we used to know
Then our skin gets thicker from living out in the snow
[Chorus]
You change all the lead, sleeping in my head
As the day grows dim, I hear you sing a golden hymn
[Verse 3]
Then we tried to name our babies but we forgot all the names that
The names we used to know
But sometimes we remember our bedrooms and our parents' bedrooms
And the bedrooms of our friends
Then we think of our parents, well, what ever happened to them?
[Chorus]
You change all the lead, sleeping in my head to gold
As the day grows dim, I hear you sing a golden hymn
It's the song I've been trying to sing
[Outro]
Purify the colors, purify my mind
Purify the colors, purify my mind
And spread the ashes of the colors over this heart of mine
Une année sans lumière Lyrics
[Verse 1: Win Butler, Win Butler & Reginé Chassagne]
Hey! The streetlights all burnt out
Une année sans lumière
Je monte un cheval
Qui porte des oeillères
[Verse 2: Win Butler, Win Butler & Reginé Chassagne]
Hey, my eyes are shooting sparks
La nuit, mes yeux t'éclairent
Ne dis pas a ton père
Qu'il porte des oeillères
[Chorus: Win Butler, Win Butler & Reginé Chassagne]
Hey, your old man should know
If you see a shadow
There's something there
[Verse 3: Win Butler, Win Butler & Reginé Chassagne]
So hey, my eyes are shooting sparks
La nuit, mes yeux t'éclairent
Ne dis pas a ton père
Qu'il porte des oeillères
Woo
[Chorus: Win Butler, Win Butler & Reginé Chassagne]
Hey, your old man should know
If you see a shadow
There's something there
Woo
[Outro]
Give it to her
She's in love, give it to her
She's in love, come on give it to her
She's in love, come on give it to her
She's in love, come on give it to her
Her, her, her, her
Haïti Lyrics
[Verse 1: Regine Chassagne]
Haïti, mon pays
Wounded mother I’ll never see
Ma famille set me free
Throw my ashes into the sea
[Verse 2: Regine Chassagne]
Mes cousins, jamais nés
Hantent les nuits de Duvalier
Rien n'arrete nos esprits
Guns can’t kill what soldiers can’t see
[Verse 3: Regine Chassagne]
In the forest we are hiding
Unmarked graves where flowers grow
Hear the soldiers angry yelling
In the river we will go
[Verse 4: Regine Chassagne]
Tous les morts-nés forment une armée
Soon we will reclaim the earth
All the tears and all the bodies
Bring about our second birth
[Verse 5: Will Butler]
Haïti, never free
N'aie pas peur de sonner l'alarme
Tes enfants sont partis
In those days their blood was still warm
Rebellion (Lies) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sleeping is giving in
No matter what the time is
Sleeping is giving in
So lift those heavy eyelids
People say that you'll die
Faster than without water
But we know it's just a lie
Scare your son, scare your daughter
[Verse 2]
People say that your dreams
Are the only things that save you
Come on baby, in our dreams
We can live our misbehavior
[Refrain]
Every time you close your eyes (Lies! Lies!)
Every time you close your eyes (Lies! Lies!)
Every time you close your eyes (Lies! Lies!)
Every time you close your eyes (Lies! Lies!)
Every time you close your eyes
Every time you close your eyes
Every time you close your eyes
Every time you close your eyes
[Verse 3]
People try and hide the night
Underneath the covers
People try and hide their lies
Underneath the covers
Come on hide your lovers
Underneath the covers
Come on hide your lovers
Underneath the covers
Hiding from your brothers
Underneath the covers
Come on hide your lovers
Underneath the covers
[Verse 4]
People say that you'll die
Faster than without water
But I know it's just a lie
Scare your son, scare your daughter
Scare your son, scare your daughter
Scare your son, scare your daughter
[Refrain]
Now here's the sun, it's alright! (Lies! Lies!)
Now here's the moon, it's alright! (Lies! Lies!)
Now here's the sun, it's alright! (Lies! Lies!)
Now here's the moon, it's alright! (Lies! Lies!)
But every time you close your eyes (Lies! Lies!)
Every time you close your eyes (Lies! Lies!)
Every time you close your eyes (Lies! Lies!)
Every time you close your eyes (Lies! Lies!)
[Outro]
Every time you close your eyes
Every time you close your eyes
Every time you close your eyes
(Lies! Lies!)
