Dog Days Are Over
Florence + The Machine
4:11A century of silence Weeks of oblivious glares Almost three months of hatred I was close to "I don't care" You promised me the world While we sat on those stairs You were the habit of my summer And I almost didn't care Before it started it all ended On that Sunday when you sent it Said it mattered, said you meant it So I don't get it What are you trying to do? What are you trying to make? I've got nothing left to say I've got so much left (To say) Suddenly you're trying to fix Everything you chose to break Now you've got so much to say Except that you've made a mistake Adolescent nights Never end well with you I just try to have a good time But it's your presence in the room And your bloodshot eyes Always drunk with desire I watch it rush through your headspace Set you recklessly on fire Before it started it all ended On that Sunday when you sent it Said that I mattered, that you meant it So I don't get it What are you trying to do? What are you trying to make? I've got nothing left to say I've got so much left (To say) And suddenly you're trying to fix Everything you chose to break Now you've got so much to say Except that you've made a mistake We're not friends, please understand Don't come try and shake my hand All these questions that you ask But you know the answers We're not friends, please understand I won't run and grab your hand You're terrified, it's why you can't Recognize your actions What are you trying to do? What are you trying to make? I've got nothing left to say I've got so much left (To say) Suddenly you're trying to fix Everything you choose to break Now you've got so much to say Except that you've made a mistake A mistake
