La Roux - Supervision Album Lyrics

Ohh-oh, oh

It's very sentimental and it means a lot to me, oh
Better settled down
Than playing games through gritted teeth, oh
When you light the fire all your fears about it die
You're telling everybody
All those years of killing time
I wasn't satisfied at twenty-five or twenty-three, oh
Will you let me find it?
How much faster can it be? Oh
I'm telling everybody but advice is all I find
Oh babe I'm paralyzed
Just let me find some kind of life

Oh hold on
When the twenty-first century's gone
We hold on
Move along
When you're finally finding your song
Then hold on
Move along

No it doesn't matter what it is or cannot be, oh
Where's the war I'm fighting?
It's just not fierce enough for me, oh
Thanks for playing keeper but I don't need a nine-to-five, oh
When you found the diamonds
All your tears were still inside, oh
When we find the money, all our dreams become untrue, oh
But baby if you let me
I'll do anything for you, oh
When you get the money, oh
Will you get the mind
All the innocence is burning
Can you feel a better time?

Oh hold on
When the twenty-first century's gone
We hold on
Move along
When you're finally finding your song
Then hold on
Move along

Oh hold on
When the twenty-first century's gone
We hold on
Move along
When you're finally finding your song
Then hold on
Move along

Oh let it go
'Cause the song that's in my head
It's unintentional
Baby let it go

It's just a place I know
But the song that's in my head
It's unintentional
Gotta let it go

Oh then you know
But this song that's in my head it's unintentional
Baby let it go

It's just a place I know

One foot in front of the other
Is symbolic in one way or another
But I know it's harder for you than for me
No I don't wanna see you divided
Step back, you won't be reminded
Oh it's hopeless, maybe you're finding yourself
So when you go briefly silent
I give you some space to hide in
'Cause I know it's
Harder for you than for me

I never wanna let you down
'Cause the world
Stops a little when you hit the ground, oh and
You're doing fine at making your mother proud

So bye bye to the sights unkind 'cause
The skies have realigned us
And I know it hasn't been nice all the time
Now we're finally coming into the light

Oh it's just a little learning
I've finally found out why I'm hurting
I will not be playing inside by myself

Oh don't you find
That when you learn
There is a high?
Oh don't you find
That when you learn
There is a high?

Do you feel like you've forgotten something?
Do you feel it belongs inside?
Do you feel like a man in the morning
But you feel like a woman at night?
Don't you realize it's all just nothing?
Tell you now that's the coldest lie
Do you feel like you believed in something
And you never even questioned why?

Do you feel like you've forgotten something?
Do you feel like you've been left behind?
Does it feel like you're running from it
All the while running out of time?
Is it something that you needed badly?
Is it something that you needed now?
You can't ever have enough in a lifetime
You can have it all of that now

Do you feel like you've forgotten something? (Oh baby I will)
Do you feel it belongs inside? (Be there for you)
Do you feel like a man in the morning (I'll take it to the)
But you feel like a woman at night? (Death I told you)
Don't you realize it's all just nothing? (Oh baby I will)
Tell you now that's the coldest lie (be there for you now)
Do you feel like you believed in something
And you never even questioned why?

Do you feel like you've forgotten something? (Oh baby I will)
Do you feel it belongs inside? (Be there for you)
Do you feel like a man in the morning (I'm talking ever since)
But you feel like a woman at night? (I've known you)
Don't you realize it's all just nothing? (Oh baby I will)
Tell you now that's the coldest lie (be there for you now)
Do you feel like you believed in something
And you never even questioned why?

Do you feel like you've forgotten something? (Oh baby I will)
Do you feel it belongs inside? (Be there for you)
Do you feel like a man in the morning (I take it to the)
But you feel like a woman at night? (I warn you)
Don't you realize it's all just nothing? (Oh baby I will)
Tell you now that's the coldest lie (be there for you now)
Do you feel like you believed in something
And you never even questioned why?

In time, oh, will I
Understand it
We can fight til it's light
Doesn't mend it
Do you still dream we're alright
And we'll find it
What if I tell you lies
And demand it
Demand it

Baby, how many times
You're not listening right in my mind
I know it's alright
But then you find you're lost in the fight
And now you've broken the love of your life
Or you're just blinded

I wanted to manage information
Find the automatic driver
Oh, I'll find it
Whoa, but I'm still so in love
Imagine how much I'm crying
Oh, I'm crying
Oh, whoa

Too many times we've been high
Then we've landed
Oh, that smile that you hide
Leaves me stranded
Oh sometime I feel like we're just pretending
And it's time I realized
It's an ending
An ending

Baby, how many times
You're not listening right in my mind
I know it's alright
But then you find you're lost in the fight
And now you've broken the love of your life
Or you're just blinded

I wanted to manage information
Find the automatic driver
Oh, I'll find it
Whoa, but I'm still so in love
Imagine how much I'm crying
Oh, I'm crying
Oh, whoa

You can try all you like
But it's ended
And this time we're in paradise
You're my favorite

I wanted to make a contribution, baby
I wanted to start a revolution with you
I wanted to make a contribution, baby
I wanted to start a revolution with you
Oh, oh, oh

After I waited so long to find you
Why did I let myself run and hide you?
After I waited so long to find you
Why did I let myself run?

I wanted to make a contribution, baby
I wanted to start a revolution with you
I wanted to make a contribution, baby
I wanted to start a revolution with you
Oh, oh, oh

After I waited so long to find you
Why did I let myself run and hide you?
After I waited so long to find you
Why did I let myself run and hide you?
After I waited so long to find you
Why did I let myself run and hide you?
After I waited so long to find you
Why did I let myself run and hide you?

Help me, save me, get back now
I didn't wanna say it again
Oh you fear of the things that returned, then show me how
So when I didn't wanna settle in
Oh, you feelin' left out, you're takin' me down
But I didn't wanna settle in
But I feel in this city, it's breakin' us now
I didn't wanna say it again

No, I never want to see your face again
No, I never want to hear your call
I will not be livin' in that space again
I will not come knockin' at your door

'Cause I'm an international woman of leisure
Oh, you want me to go on? It's my pleasure
And now I can feel the change in the weather
Oh, where I'm goin', I know it's much better

I wanna tell you where I'm livin' now
Only wanna show you what it's all about
I found a feelin' I can't live without
Oh, and I feel like I've been sleepin' now
Look in the mirror and feel yourself now
Turnin' around is easy, say that
I gave enough to bring myself down
Oh, but it's mine, and I take it back now

No, I never want to see your face again
No, I never want to hear your call
I will not be livin' in that space again
I will not come knockin' at your door

'Cause I'm an international woman of leisure
Oh, you want me to go on? It's my pleasure
And now I can feel the change in the weather
Oh, where I'm goin', I know it's much better
'Cause I'm an international woman of leisure
Oh, you want me to go on? It's my pleasure
And now I can feel the change in the weather
Oh, where I'm goin', I know it's much better

No more standin' all alone
When I'm right here telling time
And my breath's been feeling sure
Well, my heart is open wide

Oh, a warning light is shining saying I would not be saved
I'm sick of hiding, face it, you and I
Don't walk the same
When a certain man started spinning lies, it started to rain
Now I see it, I am clearly terrified
Of modern day

Oh, lately there's something in the atmosphere
Telling me things that I don't wanna hear
Taking me places I don't wanna be
Showing me things that I don't wanna see
Lately there's something in the atmosphere
Telling me things that I don't wanna hear
Taking me places I don't wanna be
Showing me things that I don't want

Now I'm really feeling different
Oh, can't you see you've done it this time?
It's everything I live for
Smell the fear and spot the signs
Those fantasies of better times
That prophecy that makes you learn
It's hard to fight
Oh, plant the seed, don't trip on it
Can you really get a grip on it?
Take your time

When you run it 'til it fills
Overflows and spills then you learn
Oh, then you learn
When someone irritates my thrills
And bends me back until I return
Will I return?
It depends if I find out if we're going back again
It's the same thing as lying
'Cause I'm trying to be that woman now
And I think it's turning out alright

Oh, lately there's something in the atmosphere
Telling me things that I don't wanna hear
Taking me places I don't wanna be
Showing me things that I don't wanna see
Oh, lately there's something in the atmosphere
Telling me things that I don't wanna hear
Taking me places I don't wanna be
Showing me things that I don't want to see

Now I'm really feeling different
Oh, can't you see you've done it this time?
It's everything I live for
Smell the fear and spot the signs
Those fantasies of better times
That prophecy that makes you learn
It's hard to fight
So plant the seed, don't trip on it
Can you really get a grip on it?
Take your time

If you really think you're innocent
Then learn how to fly
If you really think you're givin' some
Reach out and touch the sky

If you really think you're innocent
Then learn how to fly
If you really think you're givin' some
Reach out and touch the sky

I'd rather say it now
Before it comes 'round again
I'd rather say it now
I'll turn around and count to ten

Only wanted to get down when I'm feeling low
Only wanted to sit there when the signal is slow
Only wanted to sit down and fantasize
I wouldn't wanna be lying
Wouldn't wanna be lying to myself
You're a little bit lost in someone else
Oh you've been there walking by my side
Telling me to hang on, think that's alright

Oh I know
I'm coming from the other side
I know
I'm hidden but we don't live twice
I won't
Stand still and let this all go by
Don't talk
Come here and kiss me don't think twice

Baby there's a question that I've had on my lips
Are you paying attention? Don't be careless about this
I don't fit the file but it matters in my heart
I don't understand you, are you here to take my soul?
Be the God blessed one
That turns my spirit gold
I don't wanna chase something
That's wrong so just let it be known
Even when I'm switched off the yearning carries on
And I don't wanna feel anything for anyone anymore

I know
I'm coming from the other side
I know
I'm hidden but we don't live twice
I won't
Stand still and let this all go by
Don't talk
Come here and kiss me don't think twice

Baby where you're hiding isn't really clear to me
I don't wanna divide it so let's add it carefully
Barely set the pace so I decided not to show
I don't feel better so what matters if I go
Baby I know that it's hardest to fight
When finding somebody that slips in your mind

I don't like it, I don't tell you
But deep down inside
I'm fighting my body
But please don't ask why

(Be on your mind)
(I prefer to get down)
(Than be livin' a lie)
(Da-da-da-da)

Don't wanna be on your mind
I prefer to get down
Than be livin' a lie
I'm afraid you got found
Is it real to deny?
I've been thinking 'bout how
I can leave anytime
I've been thinking 'bout time

With the birds and the bees
I've been wondering 'bout
When will you finally see
Elephants and birds
Hanging 'round in the trees

Just look closer they're all
Looking at you and me
Elephants and birds
When you finally see
Elephants and birds
Hanging 'round in the trees

We're on a mission, keep it on the line
With you this mountain's easier to climb
When we're together, happiness delight
Let them hear it so they recognize
We're getting closer, open up your stride
What's your limit, are you getting tired?
We're riding over hills and riversides
Now I'm dreaming, now I'm hypnotized

The miracle is our give and take
I've tried without you it's not the same
I'll build you up, I'm not turning back
My time is up but don't tell me that

Sit back
He rides
Sit back
He rides

Aha, ha-ha-haa
Aha, ha-ha-haa
Aha, ha-ha-haa
Aha, ha-ha-haa

I'm your companion sleeping out tonight
Under the starlight 'til the ends of time
No we don't plan on sitting at state lines
We're in a rhythm steps ahead of time

The miracle is our give and take
I've tried without you it's not the same
I'll build you up, I'm not turning back
My time is up but don't tell me that

Sit back
He rides
Sit back
He rides

Aha, ha-ha-haa
Aha, ha-ha-haa
Aha, ha-ha-haa
Aha, ha-ha-haa

Lies
But I will believe in anything
Oh I will believe in love
And I will believe in you
Gullible fool

Lies
But I will believe in anything
Oh I will believe in love
And I will believe in you
Gullible fool

Lies
But I will believe in anything
Oh I will believe in love
And I will believe in you
Gullible fool

When you turn and turn it 'til it's broken
I will not be near
Am I finally getting to you
When you turn, turn and say you're sorry
Loud so I can hear
If this time you're telling the truth
I have never seen that doorway open
All my life spent talking about being the one
Oh no, please don't sit there frowning
All that does
Is separate the love

When your story's told
When you're five years old
When you're dancing 'round
In your father's hands
When you're ten years old
And that fight gets old
Are you gonna let them walk on off
Into the night?
I found the love

But I will believe in anything
Oh I will believe in love
And I will believe in you
Gullible fool

Lies
But I will believe in anything
Oh I will believe in love
And I will believe in you
Gullible fool

Just pack your things and go
Honey don't pretend you didn't know
Oh now don't you say you miss me
I've been up for sale all week
So just wipe your tears let's go
Can't give back the years I know
I don't need everything quick
I've been out finding my feet
I've been up and down for so long
I've been locked out of my home
I've been up cynical street
I've been out finding my feet
I've been up and down for so long
Happy enough singing my song
Had enough of dragging my feet
I've been up since last week

In the morning I pretend I like it
But I'm fifty percent, I'll find it
Oh when you say I do
Oh-oh in the morning I pretend I like it
But will we present our findings
Oh when you say it's true

Oh-oh in the morning I pretend I like it
When I'm fifty percent, I'll find it
Oh when you say I do
In the morning I pretend I like it
But will we present our findings
Oh when you say it's true

Oh-oh in the morning I pretend I like it
But I'm fifty percent, I'll find it
Oh when you say I do ooh-ooh
