Embrace (feat. White Lies) Lyrics

When the daylight weighs a ton and all my friends are gone
There's rust around the things I love
When it's fraying at the seams of reality and dreams
All those dreams are quiet and dullThis town's alright but it's not enough
I'm looking for a quick exit like a prisoner on the run
This town's alright but it's not enough
I'm looking for a quick exit like a prisoner on the runBig time breakdown, look how the stars come out
Big time breakdown, why didn't you just shout?
I'm lonely and I'm looking for a place to go
Where everything's an embrace and everybody wants to knowI'm your absent Valentine and the pigtails in the bride
I'm the still that carves the toes in your bottle
I'm the lynch mob in the dark, I'm the silk worm in your heart
Spinning out my perfect circleThis town's alright but it's not enough
I'm looking for a quick exit like a prisoner on the run
This town's alright but it's not enough
I'm looking for a quick exit like a prisoner on the runBig time breakdown, look how the stars come out
Big time breakdown, why didn't you just shout?
I'm lonely and I'm looking for a place to go

Where everything's an embrace and everybody wants to knowI'm on the water
Fetch your brother, fetch your daughter
Come, come undone
Fetch your sister, fetch your sonThis town's alright but it's not enough
I'm looking for a quick exit like a prisoner on the run
This town's alright but it's not enough
I'm looking for a quick exit like a prisoner on the runBig time breakdown, look how the stars come out
Big time breakdown, why didn't you just shout?
I'm lonely and I'm looking for a place to go
Where everything's an embrace and everybody wants to knowI'm lonely and I'm looking for a place to go
Where everything's an embrace and everybody wants to know
