The Mannequins - You Wanted an Avalanche Lyrics



The Mannequins - You Wanted an Avalanche Lyrics
Official




I wanted nothing but the heart
And you wanted an avalanche
I guess that's kinda where we start
Surrounded by all your house plants
I guess that's kind of how we bend
And frame the light
A while to know you and the night
Just lie in wait for new daylight
So damn afraid of being burned
My heart's a mortar and it's pointed at
The very thing I'm trying to save
Some spark and light that I lost ages back
But losing traction
Hit the brakes
I wanted you and your mistakes
Just got these ghosts that I can't shake
And all these lines that I can't fake
A broken spell, a sinking sound
(Some things are in my head, right
Some things are in my head, right?)
It comes up high, it leads you down
(Some things are in my head, right
Some things are in my head, right?)
It took the rain to make me true
(Some things are in my head, right
Some things are in my head, right?)
Oh you, a setting sun, a brand new moon
(Some things are in my head, right
Some things are in my head, right?)
I guess a lesson's never learned
Till you take the plunge and find out
The water's warmer with you here
No antidote for all the bad brain bouts
But ears for fears and pains is all we ever meant
Some new transmissions that you sent
So damn scared of odds and ends
It's all the light that you can spend
A broken spell, a sinking sound
(Some things are in my head, right
Some things are in my head, right?)
It comes up high, it leads you down
(Some things are in my head, right
Some things are in my head, right?)
It took the rain to make me true
(Some things are in my head, right
Some things are in my head, right?)
Oh you, a setting sun, a brand new moon
(Some things are in my head, right
Some things are in my head, right?)
When I see your face
I think of every single day
That I spent lying in my bed
Waging war with this old head
And I have pictures on the wall
But They don't look like me at all
No, They don't look like me at all
And if you miss me, would you call?
Cause when I hear you on the phone
It feels like nothing's really gone
And time is just a song
That we've been singing all alone
A broken spell, a sinking sound
(Some things are in my head, right
Some things are in my head, right?)
It comes up high, it leads you down
(Some things are in my head, right
Some things are in my head, right?)
It took the rain to make me true
(Some things are in my head, right
Some things are in my head, right?)
Oh you, a setting sun, a brand new moon
(Some things are in my head, right
Some things are in my head, right?)
It leads you down
It leads you down
(Some things are in my head, right
Some things are in my head, right?)
It leads you down
It leads you down
(Some things are in my head, right
Some things are in my head, right?)
It leads you down
It leads you down
(Some things are in my head, right
Some things are in my head, right?)
It leads you down
It leads you down
(Some things are in my head, right
Some things are in my head, right?)
