alyssasayshello:

true affection / the blow

i was out of your league
and you were 20,000 underneath the sea
waiving affections
you were out of my league
at a distance that i didn’t wanna see
down to the bottom

i wanted a junction and often there was one
you’d surface face first and we’d share our thought bubbles
and i still believe in the phrases that we breathed
but i know the distance isn’t fair to cross

i was out of your league
and you were 20,000 underneath the sea
waiving affections
you were out of my league
at a distance that i didn’t wanna see
wanted you nearer

your depths made a pressure that punctured my works
and all your fluids couldn’t tolerate the force of my thirst
i love the place where we shared our tiny grace
but just because it’s real don’t mean it’s gonna work

i was out of your league
and you were 20,000 underneath the sea
waiving affections
you were out of my league
at a distance that i didn’t wanna see
wanted you nearer

and true affection floats
true affections sinks like a stone
i never felt so close 
i never felt so all alone

i was out of your league
and you were 20,000 underneath the sea
waiving affections
you were out of my league
at a distance that i didn’t wanna see
wanted you nearer

take care - BEACH HOUSE

stand beside it
we can’t hide the way it makes us glow
it’s no good unless it grows
feel this burning love of mine

deep inside the ever spinning
tell me does it feel
it’s no good unless it’s real
hill sides burning
wild-eyed turning
til we’re running from it

I’D TAKE CARE OF YOU
IF YOU’D ASK ME TO
IN A YEAR OR TWO…

you say swimming in the lake
we’ll come across a snake
it is real and then it’s fake
feel its heartbeat
feel what you heat
far so fast
it feels too late

TAKE CARE

real love - BEACH HOUSE

i met you somewhere
in a hell beneath the staris
there’s someone in that room
that frightens you then they go boom
boom boom boom

the color you say is black
is the one you might lack
in the size of your eyes
is there a righteous prize

there’s something wrong with our hearts
when they beat pure they stand apart
in the black room, the light
watch the seabird fall
real love it finds you
somewhere with your back to it

10 mile stereo - BEACH HOUSE

the heart is a stone
and this is a stone that we throw
put your hand on this stone
it’s the stone of a home you know
they say we will go far
but they don’t know how far we’ll go
with our legs on the edge
and our feet on the horizon

they say we can throw far
but they don’t know how far we throw
with our legs on the edge
and our feet on the horizon
the heart is a stone
and this is a stone that we throw
they say we will go far
but they don’t know how far we’ll go

it can’t be gone
we’re still right here
it took so long
can’t say we heard it all
limbs parallel
we stood so long we fell

TEAR A MOMENT FROM THE DAYS
THAT CARRY US ON FOREVER

this push and pull
is the force of a wave of time
in the heat of a night
we would cry, you are not mine
they said we would go far
but they didn’t know how far we’d go
cause this heart is a stone
and this is a stone that we throw

it can’t be gone
we’re still right here
it took so long
can’t say we saw it all
limbs parallel
we stood so long we fell

BRIGHT PYRAMIDS AT NIGHT
THEY CARRY US ON FOREVER

it can’t be gone
we’re still right here
it took so long
can’t say we felt it all
limbs parallel
we stood so long we fell

LOVE’S LIKE A PANTHEON
IT CARRIES US ON FOREVER

better times - BEACH HOUSE

i want you
to know the truth
(cause) i’ve been around before
thought i wasn’t looking anymore

been a fool for weeks
cause my heart stands for nothing
and your soul’s too weak
got a will that’s been around for days
goes far if want it
it needs to behave
but then you, you come around
big mistake

I DON’T WANT TO KNOW
WE DON’T NEED A SIGN OF

i’ve been around before
thought you weren’t looking
anymore but then we
we come and go
goes up in smoke

I DON’T WANT TO KNOW
WE DON’T NEED A SIGN OF

lover of mine - BEACH HOUSE

you hear my cry lover of mine
no tear in the eye or fear in my mind
the forest is thick and we don’t recognize
we parted our lips and (we) reached from inside

in a wide open field
we know we can feel
awake and unreal
off to nowhere

need more people to be satisfied
no fear of a god and a prayer for the night
you come into our minds and (you) rush through our lives
we parted our lips and (we) reached from inside

in a wide open field
we know we can feel
awake and unreal
off to nowhere

THE ONLY THING YOU’VE GOT
YOU KNOW YOU’RE BETTER OFF WITHOUT IT

youngest fire, you decide
you decide what is right
youngest fire, who decides
we decide what is right

near yet so far isn’t it

used to be - BEACH HOUSE

you are coming home
are you still alone
are you not the same as you used to be
as the sun grown high
and you serve your time
does each day (just) feel like another lie

now you know
is it just for show
just a foolish game that you hide behind
don’t forget the nights
when it all felt right
are you not the same (as you) used to be

in an endless night
could you feel the fright
of an age that was and could never be
so we hold it close
when we feel (the) most
like a love that we could not leave behind

turn the wheel
to each way we feel
til i’m lost and i cannot find you there
don’t forget the nights

COMING HOME
ANY DAY NOW

walk in the park - BEACH HOUSE

we go for a walk in the park
cause you don’t need anything
the hand that you sometimes hold
doesn’t do anything
the face that you see in the door
isn’t standing there anymore

IN A MATTER OF TIME
IT WILL SLIP FROM MY MIND
IN AND OUT OF MY LIFE
YOU WOULD SLIP FROM MY MIND
IN A MATTER OF TIME

the face that you saw in the door
isn’t looking (at you) anymore
the name that you call in its place
isn’t waiting for your embrace
the world that you love to behold
cannot hold you anymore

IN A MATTER OF TIME
IT WILL SLIP FROM MY MIND
IN AND OUT OF MY LIFE
YOU WOULD SLIP FROM MY MIND
IN A MATTER OF TIME

more…
you want more you tell me
only time can run me

norway - BEACH HOUSE

we were sleeping til
you came along with your tiny heart
you led us in the wooden house
to share in all the wealth

(don’t you know it’s true)
norway, norway

seven figures lead the hungry mouths
the beast he comes to you
he’s a hunter for a lonely heart
in the season of the sun

(don’t you know it’s true)
norway, norway

where you thinking that
you’re gonna run to now
with the beating of a tiny heart
you hang on to the things
that you’re supposed to say
millions of stars they hold on to your breath

silver soul - BEACH HOUSE

we gather matters of the heart
so we can act a fool
it’s incomplete without you
the silver soul is running through

it’s a vision complete illusion yea

the needle on the spinning wheel
collecting silver coil
it gathers heat without you
whether or not you’re turned from it

it’s a quick turn to let us in yea

IT IS HAPPENING AGAIN
IT IS HAPPENING AGAIN

the bodies lying in the sand
they’re moving in the dark
it is so quick to let us in
feel it moving through our skin

it’s a sickness, infinite quickness yea

IT IS HAPPENING AGAIN
IT IS HAPPENING AGAIN
