SOTD – Florence + The Machine “Blinding”

November 4th, 2009

Sorry, I know it’s F+TM overload this week, but I am in one of those states where I feel like I might never listen to another album ever again. Give me a week or two to get over it. But SERIOUSLY PEOPLE. This fucking album. It’s… it’s all about everything.

Blinding – Florence & the Mach…

Florence + The Machine “Blinding”

Seems that I have been held, in some dreaming state
A tourist in the waking world, never quite awake
No kiss, no gentle word could wake me from this slumber
Until I realised that it was you who held me under

Felt it in my fists, in my feet, in the hollows of my eyelids
Shaking through my skull, through my spine and down through my ribs

No more dreaming of the dead as if death itself was undone
No more cawing like a crow for a boy, for a body in a garden
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl so in love with the wrong world

And I could hear the thunder and see the lightning crack
All around the world was waking, I never could go back
’cause all the walls of dreaming, they were torn wide open
And finally it seemed that the spell was broken

And all my bones began to shake, my eyes flew open
And all my bones began to shake, my eyes flew open

No more dreaming of the dead as if death itself was undone
No more cawing like a crow for a boy, for a body in a garden
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl so in love with the wrong world

Snow White’s stitching up the circuitboards
Synapse slipping through the hidden door
Snow White’s stitching up the circuitboard

No more dreaming of the dead as if death itself was undone
No more cawing like a crow for a boy, for a body in a garden
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl so in love with the wrong world

Snow White’s stitching up the circuitboards
Synapse slipping through the hidden door
Snow White’s stitching up the circuitboard
Synapse slipping through the hidden door
