Альбом Laura Marling

He walked down a busy street
Staring solely at his feet
Clutching pictures of past lovers at his side
Sat at the table where she sat
And removed his hat
In respect of her presence
Presents her with the pictures and says
‘These are just ghosts that broke my heart before I met you.
These are just ghosts that broke my heart before I met you’

He opened up his little heart
Unlocked the lock that kept it dark
And read a written warning
Saying ‘I’m still mourning
Over ghosts
Over ghosts
Over ghosts
Over ghosts that broke my heart before I met you’

Lover, please do not
Fall to your knees
It’s not
Like I believe in
Everlasting love

Lover, please do not
Fall to your knees
It’s not
Like I believe in
Everlasting love

He says ‘I’m so lost,
Not at all well’
Do as though there is nothing left to be
Turned out I’d been following him and he’d been following me
Do as though after it was over
We were just two lovers crying on each others shoulders

He’d gone crazy at nineteen
Said he’d lost all his self esteem
And couldn’t understand why he was crying

He would stare at empty chairs
Think of the ghosts that once sat there
The ghosts who broke his heart.
All the ghosts that broke my heart
The ghosts that broke his heart
All the ghosts that broke my heart
the ghosts the ghosts the ghosts the ghosts the ghosts the ghosts
The ghosts that broke my heart before I met you

Lover, please do not
Fall to your knees
It’s not
Like I believe in
Everlasting love

Lover, please deny
Fall to your knees
It’s not
Like I ever believed in
Everlasting love

He says ‘I’m so lost,
Not at all well’
Do as though there is nothing left to be
Turned out I’d been following him and he’d been following me
Do as though after it was over
We were just two lovers crying on each others shoulders
Do as though there is nothing left to be
Turned out that I’d been following him and he’d been following me
Do as though after it was over
We were just two lovers crying on each others shoulders

Lover please do not
Fall to your knees
It’s not
Like I believe in
Everlasting love

Lover please do not
Fall to your knees
It’s not
Like I believe in
Everlasting love

He chased me through the rain
Honey, I'm going your way, I don't think so
You can chase me through the rain
And scream my name, a childish game
But I love to be young

And honey, I was never gonna change
And honey, you are never gonna change
But you love, don't you love it that way

Old stone
Ten thousand years and you're still on your own
Don't you love
Don't you love me that way

And if you swear that you're alright
I'm not gonna try and change your mind
'Cause the same night I dream that I lose you
I'll fall in love

Oh honey, don't let me walk away from this
If I'm trying to fuck up my own life
Then until I figure out why
I think it's best you keep your distance
Lest I fall in love

Old stone
Ten thousand years and you're still on your own
Don't you love
Don't you love me that way

He chased me through the rain
Honey, I'm going your way, I don't think so
You can chase me through the rain
And scream my name, a childish game
But I love to be young

He taps at my window
Willing that I let him in
I don't think I will though
My heart's taken, I won't tell him again

Maybe I'll write him a story and
Maybe I'll fall asleep in his arms
Maybe I'll wake up lonely
And fall unawake again

And until you calm me down, race around this town
Trying to find, oh, an emotion you cannot deny
And I will not have him treat me this way

And mother, I blame you
Therein trying to be you again
For I have become you
And I know every part of the game

And father, I love you
But how can you watch as I push her away?
I cannot forgive you for bringing me up this way

Maybe I'll write them a story
And maybe I'll fall asleep in his arms
Maybe I'll wake up lonely
And fall unawake again

And until you calm me down, I race around this town
Until you calm me down, I race around this town
Trying to find, oh, an emotion you cannot deny
And I will not have them treat me this way

So tap at my window
Maybe I might let you in
I don't think I will though
My heart's taken, I won't tell you again

he used to be a singer in a rock and roll band
he would write the songs and i'd tremble at his hand but oh, la laa
he lost poetic ethic and his songs were pathetic, and he's a failure now

he used to be the life and soul of everyone around
you'd never catch him looking up and never see him down but oh, la laa
he couldnt raise a smile oh not for a while and he's a failure now

dont cry child, you've got so much more to live for
dont cry child, you've got something i would die for
and if it come to the rain, just be glad you'll smile again
cause so many dont.
and so many go unamed

people push right past me shouting various claims
a preacher pushes me a side and asked to wash my sins i said no, la laa
if he made me in his image, then hes a failure too
and i used to need a couple o people keep my head down
now i need a whole lot more to keep me on the ground but oh, la laa
i gave up something and i gave it up for nothing and i am failure now

dont cry child, you've got so much more to live for
dont cry child, you've got something i would die for
and if it come to the rain, just be glad you'll smile again
cause so many dont.
and so many go unamed

Mom thinks that you're sad
And that you're living alone
And your friends think if you're sad
You should call them more

But the truth is that you never needed someone
To comfort you
Oh, you've never needed someone
To comfort you

You're no god, you're no god

And you will never leave this place
And you will always feel alone
And you will never feel quite clean
In this new skin that you have grown
Until your old and broken bones
Are laid into their resting place
Just like the rest of human race

'Til I fall into my place
Just like the rest of human race
Until I'm laid into my final resting place
Just like the rest of human race
Who've done it without complaining all the way

You're no god, you're no god

As long as you promise
That you will never leave
I need only worry about you and me

We will never leave this place
We need never feel alone
We will learn to feel quite clean
In this new skin that we have grown
Because our young and healthy bones
Would never lead us astray

We will learn to feel quite clean
In this new skin that we have
We will learn to feel quite clean
In this new skin that we have

We will learn to feel quite clean
In this new skin that we have grown
Because our young and healthy bones
Would never lead us astray

Look down on the body that you have grown
Four mountains stand around you, they're not your own
And light squares and bodies are all you see
Since you broke down, since I broke down
Since we broke down

Oh, I jumped into your grave and died
And on my word you'll give up your whole life for me
And you'll be reborn, bigger and stronger unless I lie

Cross your fingers, hold your toes
We're all going to die when the building blows
Cross your fingers, hold your toes
We're all going to die when the building blows

And the house that you were born in
Is crumbling at the corner
Sagging skin and feet of crows, feet of crows

Oh, I'll jump into your grave and die
And on my word you'll give up your whole life for me
And you'll be reborn, bigger and stronger unless I lie

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh you crawled out of the sea
Straight into my arms,
Straight into my arms

Oh you crawled out of the sea
Straight into my arms,
Straight into my arms

Oh you crawled out of the sea
Straight into my arms,
Straight into my arms

Oh you crawled out of the sea
Straight into my arms,
Straight into my arms

(Repeat until the end)

If he wants to die in a lake in Geneva
The mountains can cover the shape of his nose
If he wants to die where nobody can see him
The beauty of his death will carry on
So I don’t believe him

He greets me with kisses when good days deceive him
And sometimes it’s gone and sometimes I believe him
And sometimes I’m convinced that my friends think I’m crazy
I get scared and call him, but he’s usually hazy
By 1 in the morning, the day is not ended
By 2 he is scared that sleep is no friend
By 4 he will drink but he cannot feel it
Sleep will not come because sleep does not will it
And I don’t believe him
Morning is mocking me

I wander the streets, avoiding them beats
The ring on my finger slips to the ground
I give to the gutter, give to the city
The veins of which have broken me down
And I don’t believe him
Morning is mocking me

The gods that he believes never fail to amaze me
He believes in the love in his god of all things
But I find him wrapped up in all manner of sins
The drugs that deceive you and the girls that believe you
I can’t control you, I don’t know you well
These are the reasons I think that you’re ill
I can’t control you, I don’t know you well
These are the reasons I think that you’re ill

And last that I saw him
Last that we talked down by a river
Silent and hardened
Morning was mocking us, blood hit the sky
I was just happy, my manic and I
He couldn’t see me; the sun was in his eyes
And birds were singing to calm us down
And birds were singing to calm us down

I’m sorry young man, I cannot be your friend.
I don’t believe in a fairytale end
I don’t keep my head up all of the time
I’m find it dull when my heart meets my mind
And I hardly know you, I think I can tell
These are the reasons I think that I’m ill
I hardly know you, I think I can tell
These are the reasons I think that we’re ill
And the gods that he believes never fail to disappoint me
And the birds are singing to calm us down
And the birds are singing to calm us down

I woke up and he was screaming.
I'd left him dreaming.
I roll over and shake him tightly, and whisper "If they want you, then they're gonna have to fight me,"
(Oh, fight me)

I woke up on a bench on Shepursburgh Scree
With a candle at my chest, and a hand on his knee.
I woke up it was dark there was no-one in this park at this time, oh why do I keep finding myself here?
Oh, fight me.

If I look back and he is screaming,
I'd left him dreaming, the dangers fade,
And I rolled back and shake him tightly,
And scream "if they want him, then they're gonna have to fight me!" (Oh, fight me).

But if I wake up on a bench on Shepursburgh Scree
Oh, a candle at my chest, and a hand on his knee.
I'll roll over and hold him tightly, and scream "If you want him, well you're gonna have to fight me!" (Oh, fight me).

Don't fight me.

You kick the blow, now you gotta kick the guy
You sat alone under billowing sky
If I feel God judging me,
Well I fell into the water, now I’m free.


My friends they don’t really get me, think I’m the only one
Well i sold my soul to jesus and since then ive had no fun
Behind every tree is a cutting machine and a kite fallen from grace
Inside every man is a heart of sand you can see it in his face.
He’ll tick tick tick tick tick tick tick away.
Another second lost with every fallen grain.
He’ll tick tick tick tick tick tick tick away.
Another second lost with every fallen grain.

The wind and I, we speak the same, but he don’t hear so well.
You’re gonna have to curse him well you’re gonna have to yell.
The sky and I, we’ve had our fights and I’m coming round to rain,
If the rain come round and it don’t go out, then I’ll never have to speak again,
I can tick tick tick tick tick tick tick away.
Another second lost with every fallen grain.

Can tick tick tick tick tick tick tick away.
Another second lost with every fallen grain.


The captains got his boots on and he’s heading out the door,
Leaving his lady alone thinkin’ ‘He don’t love me no more.’
He’s done with all this bullshit, He’s going back to war,
If Heaven is as Heaven does then this is Hell for sure...
And He’ll tick tick tick tick tick tick tick away.
Another second lost with every fallen grain.
He’ll tick tick tick tick tick tick tick away.
Another second lost with every fallen grain.

You kick the blow, now you gotta kick the guy
You sat alone under billowing sky*
If I feel God judging me,
But I fell into the water, now I’m free

I have travelled past your window many times,
I find your face too hard to define,
I can't touch you hollow thing,
You plagued my mind,
I can never go outside,
I will never go back to being blind.

I have wondered what you're doing ever day since last I asked.
Are your cheeks hollow? I don't like your eyes dark

I need shine, I need shine, I need shine,
Step away from my light I need shine,

I am honest, no, not a shouter,
I am reformed, reborn and forgiven.
And you've been busy but you've missed me
And I've plagued your mind.

You will never go outside,
You will never go back to being blind.

I need shine, I need shine, I need shine,
Step away from my light, I need shine,
I need shine, I need shine, I need shine,
Step away from my light, I need shine.

I need shine, I need shine, I need shine,
Step away from my light I need shine,
I need shine I need shine, I need shine
Step away from my light I need shine.

Thanks to the one for these lyrics

I fell into the street, poison in my veins
Clamber to my feet and into the night again
Back to my home, back to my owner
Who screams at my tardiness
Put his hands to the sky

And says, what can I do with a girl
If she refuses to be mine?

In his bed I am queen, unobtainable me
Sexual being, human with feelings
The two are not me
The two will not be mine

And what can you do with a girl
If she refuses to be mine?

Put his hand on my shirt
Hand on my face
Head to the wall
When you've broken your only doll

And what will you do with a girl
If she refuses to be alive?

And you've broken your only doll
And what will you do with a girl
If she's refusing to be alive?

There's a house across the river
But alas I cannot swim
And a garden of such beauty
That the flower seem to grin

There's a house across the river
But alas I cannot swim
I live my life regretting
That I never jumped in

There's a boy across the river
With short black curly hair
He wants to be my lover
And I want to be his peer

There's a boy across the river
But alas I cannot swim
Now I never will get to put
My arms around him

There's a life across the river
That was meant for me
Instead I live my life in constant misery

There's a life across the river
But I do not see
Why I should please those
Who will never be pleased

There is gold across the river
But I don't want none
There is gold across the river
But I don't want none

Gold is fleeting, gold is fickle
Gold is fun
Gold is fleeting, gold is fickle
Gold is fun

There is gold across the river
But I don't want none
I would rather be tried
Than held up by a golden gun

Saying work more, earn more
Live more, have more fun
Saying work more, earn more
Live more, have more fun
Saying work more, earn more
Live more, have more fun
