Lyrics
0:21It was upon row of houses
0:23Tight skirts and baggy trousers
0:25Green men and cheap diguises
0:28High hopes and higher rises
0:30Who lived a girl who was on a mission
0:33Who lived a boy who was under suspicion
0:35Tried hard to stay beside her
0:38Until the devil put his seed inside her
0:40How
0:42You know how
0:43Speak to love and the sand runs out
0:46So close to midnight
0:50Time to fly
0:53Do or die
0:56Stung in the headlights
1:00Here we lie
1:03High and dry
1:05The world will never see you 'till you open your eyes
1:10Say goodnight
1:13Kill the light
1:15The world will never hear you tonight
1:19Idlewild
1:21For two years he tried to reach her
1:23Worshipped the ground beneathe her
1:26She she was always running
1:29He he saw the end was coming
1:31But now the story takes a turn
1:33She wakes up and her sheets are burning
1:36Head down against the fire
1:38Now now now the table turns
1:42She won't learn
1:43Sleep to love and your bed starts burning
1:46So close to midnight
1:51Idlewild you don't know
1:56You never need to
2:01Here we lie high and dry
2:06The world will never see you 'till you open your eyes
2:11Say goodnight
2:13Kill the light
2:16The world will never hear you tonight
2:20Idlewild
2:25Idlewild
2:32I thought that we were good together
2:34I thought that we could weather the weather
2:37Whether or not that wise is the word for us
2:39That high hopes are only there because because
2:42Because I thought the only thing between us
2:44Was something shallow not a river so deep we see us
2:47Dredge up the wreckage our parents left us
2:49Lay it on the banks to rot and fester
2:52Now it's scarlet and hanging like a death star
2:54And gretna green dark and manchester
2:59I don't want to hear it now
3:02Here we lie high and dry
3:06The world will never see you 'till you open your eyes
3:12Say goodnight kill the light
3:16The world will never hear you tonight
3:21Idlewild
3:26Idlewild
3:31Kill the light
3:34Idlewild
It was upon row of houses Tight skirts and baggy trousers Green men and cheap diguises High hopes and higher rises Who lived a girl who was on a mission Who lived a boy who was under suspicion Tried hard to stay beside her Until the devil put his seed inside her How You know how Speak to love and the sand runs out So close to midnight Time to fly Do or die Stung in the headlights Here we lie High and dry The world will never see you 'till you open your eyes Say goodnight Kill the light The world will never hear you tonight Idlewild For two years he tried to reach her Worshipped the ground beneathe her She she was always running He he saw the end was coming But now the story takes a turn She wakes up and her sheets are burning Head down against the fire Now now now the table turns She won't learn Sleep to love and your bed starts burning So close to midnight Idlewild you don't know You never need to Here we lie high and dry The world will never see you 'till you open your eyes Say goodnight Kill the light The world will never hear you tonight Idlewild Idlewild I thought that we were good together I thought that we could weather the weather Whether or not that wise is the word for us That high hopes are only there because because Because I thought the only thing between us Was something shallow not a river so deep we see us Dredge up the wreckage our parents left us Lay it on the banks to rot and fester Now it's scarlet and hanging like a death star And gretna green dark and manchester I don't want to hear it now Here we lie high and dry The world will never see you 'till you open your eyes Say goodnight kill the light The world will never hear you tonight Idlewild Idlewild Kill the light Idlewild
