For someone so conflicted, who am I to give advice to anybody? It’s such a funny, grandiose idea

Go to quote


Holy water cannot help you now
A thousand armies couldn’t keep me out
See, I’ve come to burn your kingdom down
I’ve come to smoke you out

Seven devils all around you
Seven devils in my house
See, I was dead when I woke up this morning,
And I’ll be dead before the day is done

And now all your love will be exorcised
And we will find your sayings to be paradox
And it’s an even sum
It’s a symphony
It’s a battle cry

They can keep me alive
‘Til I tear the walls
‘Til I slave you heart
And they take your soul
And what have we done?

Florence Welch

A falling star fell from your heart and landed in my eyes.
I screamed aloud, as it tore through them, and now it's left me blind.

The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out.
You left me in the dark.
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight.
In the shadow of your heart.

And in the dark, I can hear your heartbeat.
I tried to find the sound.
But then it stopped, and I was in the darkness,
So darkness I became.


I took the stars from my eyes, and then I made a map.
And knew that somehow I could find my way back.
Then I heard your heart beating, you were in the darkness too.
So I stayed in the darkness with you.

Sometimes I find that music is so much more attractive than love. I don’t know… It’s like some kind of euphoria, that love can’t bring to you.

Go to quote


I wish to remain nameless
And live without shame
'Cause what's in a name, Oh
I still remain the same

Florence Welch


Go to quote


You took my heart and you held it in your mouth
And, with a word all my love came rushing out
And, every whisper, it's the worst, emptied out by a single word
There is a hollow in me now...

And
Every whisper, every sigh
Eats away at this heart of mine
And there is a hollow in me now.

So I put my faith in something unknown
I'm living on such sweet nothing
But I'm trying to hope with nothing to hold
I'm living on such sweet nothing.

Go to quote


Then I heard your voice as clear as day,
And you told me I should concentrate,
It was all so strange,
And so surreal,
That a ghost should be so practical.
Only if for a night

And the only solution was to stand and fight,
And my body was bruised and
I was set alight,
But you came over me like some holy rite,
And although I was burning,
You're the only light
Only if for a night

Hands up if you’re ready to do something you’ll regret this weekend. Go forth! You have my blessing.

Go to quote


Be careful of the curse that falls on young lovers
Starts so soft and sweet and turns them to hunters
A man who's pure of heart and says his prayers by night
May still become a wolf when the autumn moon is bright

If you could only see the beast you've made of me
I held it in but now it seems you've set it running free
The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound
I hunt for you with bloody feet across the hallow'd ground

Florence Welch
