Different People lyrics - Biffy Clyro
Baby when you hold me
I can feel so wrong
You're trying to console me
Your chance has long gone
So baby won't you take my hand?
So we can do what the others can
We are alive tonight, we are alive tonight
I am going home forever and ever more
No I was never born and there's no such thing as home
We used to stand so strong
That's why the others have gone
Different person, different argument
In my shadow, no more compliments
One more person breaking the rules again
I'm still waiting for someone else to join in
Stand where the others stand
We're alive tonight
Land where the others land
We're alive tonight
I am going home forever and ever more
No I was never born and there's no such thing as home
We used to stand so strong
That's why the others have gone
Scintillating and inspirational conversation
Death to everyone
Little purpose, little consequence
Too combative, too cool to realise
Different person, different argument
In my shadow, no more compliments
One more person breaking the rules again
I'm still waiting for someone else to join in
Stand where the others stand
We're alive tonight
I am going home forever and ever more
No I was never born and there's no such thing as home
We used to stand so strong
That's why the others have gone

Black Chandelier lyrics - Biffy Clyro
Drip, drip, drip, drip, drip
Drip, drip, drip, drip, drip
Drip, drip, drip, drip, drip
Drip, drip, drip, drip
I shouldn't laugh but I know I'm a failure in your eyes
I know it's daft but I guess that I know it deep inside
It feels like we're ready to crack these days, you and I
When it's just the two of us, only the two of us, I could die
You left my heart like an abandoned car
Old and worn out, no use at all
But I used to be free
We're gonna separate ourselves tonight
We're always running scared but holding knives
But there's a black chandelier
It's casting shadows and lies
Drip, drip, drip, drip
I'll sit in silence for the rest of my life if you'd like
Dressing our wounds with industrial gloves made of wire
Feel it penetrating the skin, we begin to relax
When it's just the two of us, and a cute little cup of cyanide
You left my heart like an abandoned car
Old and worn out, no use at all
But I used to be free
We're gonna separate ourselves tonight
We're always running scared but holding knives
But there's a black chandelier
It's casting shadows and lies
We're gonna separate ourselves tonight
We're always running scared but holding knives
But there's a black chandelier
You left my heart like an abandoned car
Old and worn out, no use at all
But I used to be free
We're gonna separate ourselves tonight
We're always running scared but holding knives
But there's a black chandelier
It's casting shadows and lies
We're gonna separate ourselves tonight
We're always running scared but holding knives
But there's a black chandelier
Sounds Like Balloons lyrics - Biffy Clyro
Ancient Rome, we built that fucker stone by stone
Our fingers bled, our feet were worn
But we stood strong and carried on
Come on in, do you want to touch my bulbous head?
With features wrapped and stretched to death
A tiny nose is all that's left
This is not for your entertainment
The land at the end of our toes goes on and on and on and on
The sand at the core of our bones, it blows on and on and on and on
The land at the end of our toes goes on and on and on and on
The sand at the core of our bones continues on
The basement's gone, it seems they dug up all our land
The world was lowered man by man,
Let's move the sky and not join hands
Ancient Rome, we built that fucker stone by stone
Our fingers bled, our feet were worn
But we stood strong and carried on
This is not for your entertainment
The land at the end of our toes goes on and on and on and on
The sand at the core of our bones, it blows on and on and on and on
The land at the end of our toes goes on and on and on and on
The sand at the core of our bones continues on
Life still sounds like balloons
You chew and you chew and chew
Your teeth crumble to the floor
It's where they lay, it's where they lay
Our past never really dies
I don't think we even try
There's no difference from
Where we wake or where we die
Balloons, balloons, balloons
The land at the end of our toes goes on and on and on and on
The sand at the core of our bones, it blows on and on and on and on
The land at the end of our toes goes on and on and on and on
The sand at the core of our bones continues on
Opposite lyrics - Biffy Clyro
You are the loneliest person that I've ever known
We are joined at the surface but nowhere else
I look in the glass and stare at your strained, grey,
Motionless face and ask
Underneath, is there a golden soul?
Take care of the ones that you love
Take care of the ones that you love
Baby I'm leaving here
You need to be with somebody else
I can't stop bleeding here
Can you suture my wounds?
Everyone is beginning to breathe as I break down
You are in love with a shadow that won't come back
Sooner or later, we all have to wake
And try forgetting everything
Underneath, there's a perfect sky
Baby I'm leaving here
You need to be with somebody else
I can't stop bleeding here
Can you suture my wounds and feelings?
[x3]
Baby I'm leaving here
You need to be with somebody else
I can't stop bleeding here
Can you suture my wounds?
The Joke's On Us lyrics - Biffy Clyro
What's that sound? It's the sound of the truth in us
Reaching highs that we won't in the future
You can't say I didn't warn ya
It makes me wanna scream
Let's create our own fire
Rainbows in the shape of a girl
Take whatever you want from us
What are you staring at?
Is it our souls?
We embrace all the violence
With a small dose of happiness
Is it us?
Are we alive because God saved us
Or is life just a juggernaut?
Are we alive because God tricked us
And this is all just a joke on us?
Stab my heart it won't stop beating on
Cage my mind it won't stop tripping in
You can't say I didn't warn ya
It makes me wanna cream
Let's move to California
Find ourselves a whole new world
We embrace all the violence
With a small dose of happiness
Is it us?
Are we alive because God saved us
Or is life just a juggernaut?
Are we alive because God tricked us
And this is all just a joke on us?
I want to take it back, I want to take it back
I want to live in the dark, I want to live in the dark
I'm in love with somebody else
I'm in love with somebody else
I'm in love with somebody else
I'm in love with somebody else
Are we alive because God saved us
Or is life just a juggernaut?
Are we alive because God tricked us
And this is all just a joke on us?
Biblical lyrics - Biffy Clyro
Baby if you could would you go back to the start?
Take any fresh steps or watch it all fall apart again?
Play another song here, then you can leave
With your delicate wings, I used to weave
Maybe there's an undertow here
Or maybe this is stuck up in the air
I know how it looks but all that glitters ain't gold
You gave me magical, I gave you wonderful
Cut that invisible cord or I'll starve you
Of what's understandable
Let's make immeasurable moves to the left
Or the right but not central 'cause
[x2]
You gave me magical
I gave you wonderful
Let's make this biblical
And hang from our invisible cords
Baby if you could would you go back to the start?
Take any fresh steps or watch it all fall apart again?
It could have been a wonderful year
Instead we might not make it to the end
Everybody cares, but nobody knows
You gave me magical, I gave you wonderful
Cut that invisible cord or I'll starve you
Of what's understandable
Let's make immeasurable moves to the left
Or the right but not central 'cause
[x2]
You gave me magical
I gave you wonderful
Let's make this biblical
And hang from our invisible cords
[x2]
Baby how can you walk away? [x8]
Baby if you could would you go back to the start?
Take any fresh steps or watch it all fall apart again?
A Girl And His Cat lyrics - Biffy Clyro
I never have fun but I wouldn't say no
I guess that's my prerogative
I'll never give up and I'll never look down
That would be the end of it
Look at me now screaming up and down
With huge degrees of lethargy
Some may say that I'm lying down
That don't mean a fuck to me
I should remove you all, nothing ventured, nothing maimed
Hang on your suffering wall to decompose and rearrange
Sit tight with your lonely rose, beauty is the death of pain
Don't see it coming at all, so we control and we contain
This is what you wanted to be
This is what you wanted
This is your house, this is not your home
I don't know if we're ever gonna belong
You can build a house but not a home
It will always stand on shaky ground
I wanna play dumb but I can't let go
Of my responsibilities
Why have one? You can take all ten
I bet that's not enough for you
I should remove you all, nothing ventured, nothing maimed
Hang on your suffering wall to decompose and rearrange
This is what you wanted to be
This is what you wanted
This is your house, this is not your home
I don't know if we're ever gonna belong
You can build a house but not a home
It will always stand on shaky ground
We are looking for love
But you're baying for blood
[x2]
This is what you wanted to be
This is what you wanted
The Fog lyrics - Biffy Clyro
Baby come down to the bottom of the stairs
There's a reflection I want you to see
Our history and loneliness has defeated our devices
Lady come down, it's time to stop and stare
There's a successor I want you to meet
His misery and loneliness have exceeded expectations
But still we fall down
Look at the stars, they're getting younger
Look at your pain, you're getting older
Not feeling right but always hoping for more
I'm gonna tumble to the centre of the square
There's a triangle I wanted to see
The fog has cast a shadow homeward
We're losing our direction
So forget the whole thing
Look at the stars, they're getting younger
Look at your pain, you're getting older
Not feeling right but always hoping for more
Little Hospitals lyrics - Biffy Clyro
I'll turn your baby into lemonade
Suckle lemons and trade, trade, trade
Play along in your silver dress
We'll save souls and we'll break bread
All cows shit and angels too
Look around it's the bestest view
Did you think before you spoke aloud?
Your fucking tongue it will do you proud
You seek my cover
Where you go I'll follow on
You never can get enough
We just need to survive
If we're ever gonna dream again
I feel sad as we penetrate
Unbuckle buttons and slave, slave, slave
We attack like civil unrest
No home equals no dread
All cows shit and angels too
Look around it's the bestest view
Did you think before you spoke aloud?
Your fucking tongue it will do you proud
You seek my cover
Where you go I'll follow on
You never can get enough
We just need to survive
If we're ever gonna dream again
Ever gonna dream again
We are individuals in our little rituals
Hospitals, memorials, smaller than disease
Rituals and burials are distant used memories
When you leave
When you leave I doubt I'll remember you
[x4]
The Thaw lyrics - Biffy Clyro
Tonight we're gonna share the same space
To see what will become of it
Forgive me if my mouth is dry
I'll blame it on my battle cry
The secrets in the snow
Will always come out in the thaw
All those terrible things,
Can't you entertain us all?
Tonight we're gonna share the same space
Just if you invite me in
Forget it cause you should have tried
How are you unsatisfied?
The secrets in the snow
Will always come out in the thaw
All those terrible things,
Can't you entertain us all?
You could have taken it all
But you should have asked
I would give you my tongue
Or my dying breath
Please believe in me like I believe in you
It's the only thing to see us through
[x2]
The only thing to see us through [x4]
Tonight we have all shared the same space
Has anything become of it?
