Of Monsters and Men - Crystals Lyrics

Lost in skies of powdered gold
Caught in clouds of silver ropes
Showered by the empty hopes
As I tumble down, falling fast to the ground

I know I’ll wither so peel away the bark
‘Cause nothing grows when it is dark
In spite of all my fears, I can see it all so clear
I see it all so clear

Whoa-o-o-o, cover your crystal eyes
And feel the tones that tremble down your spine
Whoa-o-o-o, cover your crystal eyes
And let your colors bleed and blend with mine

Making waves in pitch black sand
Feel the salt dance on my hands
Raw and charcoal colored thighs feel so cold
And my skin feels so paper-thin

I know I’ll wither so peel away the bark
‘Cause nothing grows when it is dark
In spite of all my fears, I can see it all so clear
I see it all so clear

Whoa-o-o-o, cover your crystal eyes
And feel the tones that tremble down your spine
Whoa-o-o-o, cover your crystal eyes
And let your colors bleed and blend with mine

But I’m okay in see-through skin
I forgive what is within
‘Cause I’m in this house
I’m in this home
All my time

Whoa-o-o-o, cover your crystal eyes
And feel the tones that tremble down your spine
Whoa-o-o-o, cover your crystal eyes
And let your colors bleed and blend with mine

Ahay

I know that I’m wrong And now we’re both sitting in silence But if it’s alright I’ll wrap myself around your cold shoulder You think you know me …

Alligator

I see color Raining down Feral feeling Swaying sound But I don’t know what you want I am open I am restless Let me feel it out Let it all come out Wake me up …

Backyard

I live a life of love Hold me down Hold me down I live the life of letting go Under a starlit night I wrap myself in thin sheet of ice Up there, the stars are …

Barefoot In Snow

You tell me a secret, I’m telling no soul All this pain in your pocket is heavy to hold I wish you were patient enough with yourself But it’s dark in the hole …

Beneath My Bed

A lion’s head beneath my bed All these things that I once had A tiger’s paw that holds me down Keeps me safe from what’s around Keeps me safe from what’s …
