Up Against the Wall - Peter Bjorn and John

It's over Look out below And I'm wasted I still taste it Yeah it's so hard to let go So breathe in now And breathe it out The forecast A car crash It's looking like another... Breakdown, rebound This could be my last goodbye You cross your heart, I hope to die And I can't deny your eyes You know I try to read between the lines I saw a warning sign And then you threw me up against the wall Who said that it's better to have loved and lost? I wish that I had never loved at all No rewinds No second times And I won't break I won't waste, everything you left behind So don't follow Just let it go The weather's, been better Don't let it be another... Breakdown, rebound This could be my last goodbye You cross your heart, I hope to die And I can't deny your eyes You know I try to read between the lines I saw a warning sign And then you threw me up against the wall Who said that it's better to have loved and lost? I wish that I had never loved at all All the nights you spent sitting nowhere out there on your own All the nights I waited by the phone when you were going in alone And all your different faces and all your different ways are making everything a mess And all I'm saying is that all your different places and all the complications led to this And I can't deny your eyes You know I try to read between the lines I saw a warning sign And then you threw me up against the wall Who said that it's better to have loved and lost? I wish that I had never loved And I can't deny your eyes You know I try to read between the lines I saw a warning sign And then you threw me up against the wall Who said that it's better to have loved and lost? I wish that I had never loved at all (Never loved at all)

On the downtown train With my ball and Shane When the clock strikes eight A chain reaction I've been on the floor I've been shown the door That's what's next in store A chain reaction I couldn't be satisfied Cause they dragged out of my dream I sat for the stud light Need to carefully hide my spine (A chain reaction) We fall like dominos (A chain reaction) We fall like dominos (A chain reaction) You and me Everybody goes Like dominos (A chain reaction) I could snap, crack, pop Gonna rip it up When you hit the spot A chain reaction Wa-wa-watch him shake I could blue that red I could drop down dead A chain reaction I, I know what [?] like There's a diamond lost in my mind Up, up and away I go Need to carefully hide my spine (A chain reaction) We fall like dominos (A chain reaction) We fall like dominos (A chain reaction) You and me Everybody goes I don't wanna think about the morning after I don't wanna stick around [?] I don't wanna move [?] Everybody let's go (Like dominos) (Like dominos) (A chain reaction) We fall like dominos (A chain reaction) We fall like dominos (A chain reaction) You and me Everybody goes We fall like dominos (A chain reaction) We fall like dominos (A chain reaction) We fall like dominos (A chain reaction) You and me Everybody goes (Like dominos)

Haven't you heard that I'm falling to pieces It suddenly hit me If I could go back And break the silence The words would still hurt Once again I'm at the feet of a mountain Every day is a struggle Try to escape through The eye of a needle Into reality And I know that This comes out of the blue But I will go through This burning hell to reach you I can break all the bones in my body But it won't change how I feel, change how I feel I can spend all my days praying prayers But it won't change what I did, change what I did to you There it goes The tip of the iceberg My life's a disaster If I could go back And pick up the pieces I would still be a fool Buried alive Under your silence We died with the sunset Now I'm trying To string up a meaning From our bone alphabet I deserve to Burn in hell to come through To desert you Was the best I could do I can break all the bones in my body But it won't change how I feel, change how I feel I can spend all my days praying prayers But it won't change what I did, change what I did I can break all the bones in my body But it won't change how I feel, change how I feel I can spend all my days praying prayers But it won't change what I did, change what I did to you

In a different city, in a different world They were runnin' round, that's when we heard Music (music) When we had it come and when our thoughts begun In a misty morn, just off load with Music (music) On the answering machine There's a familiar voice, so easily recognized Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up and I'll be there Music on the windscreen of my dreams Music in the dark end of the street Every time there's music It's gonna be all or nothin' at all, yeah Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up and I'll be there You can breathe it in, you can breathe it out When you're out for the count I stick around like Music (music) They say what you do is comin' back to you With a different view it's all connected By the dots projected from the music (music) On the wayward nights for I will live forever through a melody Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up and I'll be there Music on the windscreen of my dreams Music in the dark end of the street Every time there's music It's gonna be all or nothin' at all, yeah Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up and I'll be there Music (music, music) Music (music, music) Music (music, music) Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up and I'll be there Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up and I'll be there
