Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Cool It Down Album Lyrics

Cowards, here's the sun
So bow your heads
In the absence of bombs
Draw your breath

Dark, dark places shall be none
She's melting houses of gold
And the kids cry out

We're spitting off the edge of the world
Out in the night
Never had no chance
Nowhere to hide
Spitting off the edge of the world
Out comes the sun
Never had no chance
Nowhere to run

Mama, what have you done?
I trace your steps
In the darkness of one
Am I what's left?
Silver lines whisper to me
Wounded arms must carry the load
And the kids cry out

We're spitting off the edge of the world
Out in the night
Never had no chance
Nowhere to hide
We're spitting off the edge of the world
Nowhere to run
Never had no chance
Out comes the sun
Spitting off the edge of the world
Winds from the sky
Never had no chance
Will watch us rise

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
In time, in time
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
In time, in time

Oh, let the time come
Oh, when hearts fall in love
Oh, let no one see you
Let nothing hold you
Come close, come close

Come close, come close
Closer now, closer now
Come close, come close
Closer now, closer now

Time, time, time, time
Time, time, time, time

Stars don't fail me now
Stars don't fail me now
Stars don't fail me now
Stars don't fail me

Rays of light light, light, light
Light, light, light, light

I'm hungry like a wolf
I bleed like a wolf

I'm lost and I'm lonely
I hunger for you only
Don't leave me now
Don't break the spell

In heaven, lost my taste for hell
Taste for hell
Taste for hell, oh, oh

I'm hunted like a wolf
I feed, I feed like a wolf

I'm lost and I'm lonely
I hunger for you only
Don't leave me now
Don't break the spell

In heaven, lost my taste for hell
Taste for hell
Taste for hell, hell, hell

Into the wild with me
Into the wild
Into the wild with me
Into the wild with me

Into the wild
Into the wild
Into the wild

Into the wild
Into the wild

Into the wild
Into the wild

You know I won't do battle with no fiction
The wilderness becoming my addiction
I shuffle 'round the creatures and the lords (the lords)
On the road again, I make my transformation
And it feels nice
To roll the dice
Once or twice

Fleez and me eating nuts in the leaves
That's where we dance to ESG
Fleez and me eating nuts in the leaves
That's where we dance to ESG, like this

Very moody, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Very moody, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Very moody, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Very moody, yeah, yeah, yeah

I make my transformation
And it feels nice
To roll the dice
Once or twice

On the road again baby
That's right

Fleez and me eating nuts in the leaves
That's where we dance to ESG
Fleez and me eating nuts in the leaves
That's where we dance to ESG, like this

Very moody, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Very moody, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Very moody, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Very moody, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Very, up down and all around baby

Very moody, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Very moody, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Very moody, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Very moody, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh

Believer, took me over like a fever
'Caught ya hiding in the smoke, smoke, smoke
Like a meteor I glow, glow, glow

Ooh, lay your red hand on me, baby
Ooh, ooh, as I go

Into the sea, out of fire
All that burning
Into the sea, out of fire
All that burning
Into the sea, out of fire
All that burning
Into the sea, out of fire
All that burning

Whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do?
Whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do?
Whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do?
Whatcha gonna do when you get into the water?

Well, I'll release her
From the bindings of her teachers
What they're hiding there is broke, broke, broke
Like the river sticks I flow, flow, flow

Whatcha gonna do when you get into the water?
Whatcha gonna do when you get into the water?
Whatcha gonna do when you get into the water?
Whatcha gonna do when you get into the water?

Whatcha gonna do when you get into the water?
Whatcha gonna do when you get into the water?
Whatcha gonna do when you get into the water?
Whatcha gonna do when you get into the water?

Into the sea, out of fire
All that burning
Into the sea, out of fire
All that burning
Into the sea, out of fire
All that burning
Into the sea, out of fire
All that burning

Thunder lights the road
Blacktop rolling under God
Now we're dancing close
One to one as our bodies lock

One to one, we sway
On our way home
One to one, we sway
And all the pain flows

Open, open
Opened up
Open, open
Opened up

Oh, as I was young and easy
In the mercy of his means
Time held me green and dying
Though I sang in my chains
Like the sea

One to one, we sway
One to one, home
One to one, we sway
And all the pain flows, flows

Hello, hold on
'Til the love is gone
Hello, hold on
'Til the love is gone
Hello, hold on
'Til the love is gone
Gone home, home

I feel different today
Different today, different today, I do
I feel different today
Different today, different today 'bout you

Oh, how the world keeps on spinnin'
It goes spinnin' out of control
How the world keeps on spinnin'
It goes spinnin' out of control
How the world keeps on spinnin'
It goes spinnin' out of control
How the world keeps on spinnin'
It goes spinnin', yeah

I feel different today
Different today, different today, I do
I feel different today
Different today, different today 'bout you

I don't want to wait till you leave
To say what I really mean, no
I don't want to wait till you leave
To say what I really mean

It's how I feel different
It's how I feel

I feel different today
Different today, different today, I do
I feel different today
Different today, different today 'bout you
(It's how I feel)

Oh, how the world keeps on spinnin'
It goes spinnin' out of control
How the world keeps on spinnin'
It goes spinnin' out of control
How the world keeps on spinnin'
It goes spinnin' out of control
How the world keeps on spinnin'
It goes spinnin', yeah

Spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning
Spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning
Spinning, spinning, spinning out
It goes, spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning
Spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning
Spinning, spinning, spinning out
It goes, spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning
Spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning
Spinning, spinning, spinning out, oh

I watched my favorite show tonight
The dance the light does
On the sea's ever-shifting surface
Golden tunnel beckoning, rosy
I can't come with you, not now

No more shimmering path
Just an orb hanging above
With all its heavenly fire
Contained in a complete circle

I asked my son what it looked like to him
"Mars", he said with a glint in his eye
"Mars", he said with a glint in his eye
