Sanctuary lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

(Ooh-ooh-ah)
(Ooh-ooh-ah, hoh)

A feather crept its way inside my head
I could have looked away and put its thought to bed
But I shook that feather loose inside my head
It only took a couple more till it had wings to spread, now

This is my sanctuary
This is my show and tell
So free
Remember every touch
So free in the light
My sanctuary

This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary
This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary

(Ooh-ooh-ah)
(Ooh-ooh-ah, hoh)

That feather drifted down inside my head
All neon bright and waiting, tethered to who I am
The hours soar like birds out of my hand
To trace the light and make it dance, now

This is my sanctuary
This is my show and tell
So free
Remember every touch
So free in the light
My sanctuary

This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary
This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary
This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary
This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary

(Ooh-ooh-ah)
(Ooh-ooh-ah, hoh)

For all that's sacred, all that's holy
For all that's sacred, all that's holy
So free

This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary
This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary
This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary
This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary

Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh

History lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

Our own history
Our own history

Today's just a page
Everything, everything we say's gonna leave a trace
This hour's just a line
Everything, everything we do leaves a trail behind

'Cause time's forever on our side
Who wins, who loses?
It's our version, we decide
We win when our truth comes to life

I won't fade or disappear
We'll mark down that we were here
You and I are writing our history
You and I are writing our history
Our own history
(Our own history)

This pain's only pain
Nothing more, nothing less, we won't let it leave a stain
This fear's only doubt
Nothing more, nothing less, not real, we can write it out

'Cause time's forever on our side
Who wins, who loses?
It's our version, we decide
We win, when our truth comes to life

I won't fade or disappear
We'll mark down that we were here
You and I are writing our history
You and I are writing our history
Our own history

I won't fade or disappear
We'll mark down that we were here
You and I are writing our history
You and I are writing our history
Our own history
(Our own history)
(Our own history)

Somebody remember
Someone will remember we're here
Somebody remember
Someone will remember we're here
Somebody remember
Someone will remember we're here
Somebody remember
Someone will remember we're here
Somebody remember
Someone will remember we're here
Somebody remember
Someone will remember we're here

I won't fade or disappear
We'll mark down that we were here
You and I are writing our history
You and I are writing our history
Our own history

I won't fade or disappear
We'll mark down that we were here
You and I are writing our history
You and I are writing our history
Our own history
(Our own history)

Any Less lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

I shot down and slammed the door
I need a minute for me
It may take a little more
No need to worry
We cross so many lines
Drawn on the ground I can't see
Where you begin and I'm right in the middle

You should know that no matter what will come
I'm your eyes when you're blind and had enough
I'm your home, you should know, oh

You could say the wrong things out
I really wouldn't care
Trip up, but I know under there
You're covered in gold and
I wouldn't love you any less
You could be a rolling stone
A little too naive
So cute, you make me wanna scream
You're covered in gold and
I wouldn't love you
I wouldn't love you any less

So you had a bad day
No need to hide it from me
It's all written on your face
No need to worry
Like a person no body sees
You let me under, I know the beneath
No way, not only our mistakes
Not even a little

You should know that no matter what will come
I'm your eyes when you're blind and had enough
I'm your home, you should know, oh

You could say the wrong things out
I really wouldn't care
Trip up, but I know under there
You're covered in gold and
I wouldn't love you any less
You could be a rolling stone
A little too naive
So cute, you make me wanna scream
You're covered in gold and
I wouldn't love you
I wouldn't love you any less

Never let go, no
Never let go
You could be a rolling stone
A little too naive
So cute, you make me wanna scream
You're covered in gold and
I wouldn't love you
I wouldn't love you any less

You could say the wrong things out
I really wouldn't care
Trip up, but I know under there
You're covered in gold and
I wouldn't love you any less
You could be a rolling stone
A little too naive
So cute, you make me wanna scream
You're covered in gold and
I wouldn't love you
I wouldn't love you any less

I know I'll never let go
I know I'll never let go
Not even a little

Who Loves You? lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

Getting lost inside another dream
Watch it all just fade away
Don't care where I'm going
Where I've been, I'm here today
All the thoughts I hold inside of me
Will I ever find a way?
Everybody's got a place to hide
And that's okay
All the lonely dreamers
Keeping the world at bay

When you're awake in the dark with a broken heart
Who loves you? Who loves you?
Hiding tears from the side with your Ray-Ban's on
Who loves you? Who loves you?
You say you wanna be free, but you just don't know how
Who loves you now? Who loves you now?

Getting lost so I can hear the breeze
Telling me to float away
Somehow I keep going
Heaven sent me here today

When you're awake in the dark with a broken heart
Who loves you? Who loves you?
Hiding tears from the side with your Ray-Ban's on
Who loves you? Who loves you?
You say you wanna be free, but you just don't know how
Who loves you now? Who loves you now?

Have you ever felt like this?
Have you seen the sky in sorrow?
Have you walked a thousand miles on your own?
Is it true that when we fall, we will sing again tomorrow?
I don't know, I don't know
(Don't look away, don't look away, don't look away)
(Don't look away, don't look away, don't look away)

When you're awake in the dark with a broken heart
Who loves you? Who loves you?
Hiding tears from the side with your Ray-Ban's on
Who loves you? Who loves you?
You say you wanna be free, but you just don't know how
Who loves you now? Who loves you now?

You say you wanna be free, but you just don't know how
Who loves you now? Who loves you now?

Going Ghost lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

I'm in the deepest darkest silence
But I'm hearing you
Living inside my head
Under my lovers bed, ooh
I'm commanding my soul to go deeper
Open up and become a receiver
I got no room left in the light now
Pushing, pulling you
It's like a crowded house
That no one knows about, ooh
I'm commanding my soul to go deeper
Open up and become a receiver
I come out of my soul

I'm going ghost, I'm going ghost
On you, till you're out of sight
I'm going ghost, I'm going ghost
On you, fading till the night

Here's to the walls that [?] us
Everywhere I go
You're always by my side
In the corner of my eye, ooh
I'm commanding my soul to go deeper
Open up and become a receiver
I'm commanding my soul to go deeper
Open up and become a receiver

I'm going ghost, I'm going ghost
On you, till you're out of sight
I'm going ghost, I'm going ghost
On you, fading till the light

If I have to keep the [?]
And kill the feelings I have
[?]
I'm going ghost
I'm commanding my soul to go deeper
Open up and become a receiver
I'm commanding my soul to go deeper
Open up and become a receiver
I'm commanding my soul to go
I'm commanding my soul to go
I'm going ghost
I'm going ghost on you
Fading till the night

I'm going ghost, I'm going ghost
On you, till you're out of sight
I'm going ghost, I'm going ghost
On you, fading till the night

[?]
And help them free them from my mind
I'm going ghost

Rabbit lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

So many things on my agenda
Gotta take, get out them all
Bills to pay and mails to send out
So many people I should call
And I know, I know
It all needs to be done somehow
But I can't, I can't
I really can right now

I gotta walk my rabbit, my rabbit
My itsy bitsy rabbit
Don't you get it? Don't you get it?
Gotta do it, it's a habit
My rabbit, my rabbit
My teeny tiny rabbit
You can have it, don't you get it?
Gotta go and walk my rabbit

Go into the naked eyes
Run, and then I forget the names
Jump, with not a care in the world
When I walk my rabbit
I believe in love and magic

Go into the naked eyes
Run, and then I forget the names
Jump, with not a care in the world
When I walk my rabbit
I believe in love and magic

You think I'm easily persuaded
By a handsome guy like you
But it's far more complicated
Boy, you just don't have a clue
You know, you know
I would love to go out with you
But I can't, I can't
I got other things to do
Think about it

Go into the naked eyes
Run, and then I forget the names
Jump, with not a care in the world
When I walk my rabbit
I believe in love and magic

Go into the naked eyes
Run, and then I forget the names
Jump, with not a care in the world
When I walk my rabbit
I believe in love and magic

Go into the naked eyes
Go into the naked eyes
When I walk my rabbit
I believe in love and magic

I gotta walk my rabbit, my rabbit
My itsy bitsy rabbit
Don't you get it? Don't you get it?
Gotta do it, it's a habit
My rabbit, my rabbit
My teeny tiny rabbit
You can have it, don't you get it?
Gotta go and walk my rabbit
My rabbit, my rabbit
My itsy bitsy rabbit
Don't you get it? Don't you get it?
Gotta do it, it's a habit
My rabbit, my rabbit
My teeny tiny rabbit
You can have it, don't you get it?
Gotta go and walk my rabbit
My rabbit, my rabbit
My itsy bitsy rabbit
Don't you get it? Don't you get it?
Gotta do it, it's a habit
My rabbit, my rabbit
My teeny tiny rabbit
You can have it, don't you get it?
Gotta go and walk my rabbit
My rabbit, my rabbit
My itsy bitsy rabbit
Don't you get it? Don't you get it?
Gotta do it, it's a habit
My rabbit, my rabbit
My teeny tiny rabbit
You can have it, don't you get it?
Gotta go and walk my rabbit
My rabbit, my rabbit
My itsy bitsy rabbit
Don't you get it? Don't you get it?
Gotta do it, it's a habit
My rabbit, my rabbit
My teeny tiny rabbit
You can have it, don't you get it?
Gotta go and walk my rabbit

Hunting High And Low lyrics -

Here I am
And within the reach of my hand
Is loud asleep
And he's sweeter now
Than the wildest dreams
Could've seen him
And I watch him slipping away

Though I'll be hunting high and low, high
There's no end to the lengths I'm going to
To hunting high and low, high
There's no end to the lengths I'm going to

To find him again
Upon this my dreams are depending
Through the dark I sense the pounding of his heart
Next to mine is the sweetest though I could find

So I guess I'll be hunting high and low, high
There's no end to the lengths I'm going to
To hunting high and low, high
There's no end to the lengths I'm going to

Do you know what it means to love you?
I'm hunting high and low
And now he's telling me he's got to go, ooh
I'll always be hunting high and low
Hungry for you
Watch me tearing myself to pieces

Hunting high and low, high
There's no end to the lengths I'm going to
For you I'll be hunting high and low

Drunk Tonight lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

Nothing is worse than a drunk ex text
So stop wherever you are
I know this hurts and it's all a mess
But stop and live with the scars

What we had is never coming back
And what you did will never be forgotten
You can't fix it, it's already dead
So let it go

I just think you're drunk tonight
Drunk tonight
You don't really want me back
I just think you're broke inside
Sad and high
You don't really want me back

Put down the phone
It's time to go home
I just think you're drunk tonight
Drunk tonight
You don't really want me back

And nothing you say can ever erase
The way you messed with my head
And nothing you do will ever ring true
You deserve every single regret

What we had is never coming back
And what you did will never be forgotten
You can't fix it, it's all in your head
So let it go

I just think you're drunk tonight
Drunk tonight
You don't really want me back
I just think you're broke inside
Sad and high
You don't really want me back

So put down the phone
It's time to go home
I just think you're drunk tonight
Drunk tonight
You don't really want me back

Oh, go to bed, sleep off your sorrow
This will all be gone tomorrow

I just think you're drunk tonight
You don't really want me back
I just think you're sad and high
You don't really want me back

So put down the phone
It's time to go home
Just leave me alone
Oh woah

I don't wanna have this fight
I'm sick and tired
I don't even want you back
You're probably in a bar somewhere
Faking tears
I'm never gonna want you back

So put down the phone
It's time to go home
I just think you're drunk tonight
Drunk tonight
You don't really want me back

My Empire lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

Ohhh, ahhh

Are you crying?
And everyone's afraid to speak
It feels like dying
But hope is never out of reach

I wanna radiate
Like the sun again
And start anew
And if I fall from grace
I won't be afraid
I'm coming through

You can take my crown
But you won't get inside of my head
You can break me down
And it will rise

My empire
My empire
My empire
And it will rise again

It's so quiet
But still water's running deep
And there's a riot
Reaching deep inside of me

I wanna radiate
Like the sun again
Let's make anew
And if I fall from grace
Never be afraid
I'm coming through

You can take my crown
But you won't get inside of my head
You can break me down
And it will rise

My empire
My empire
My empire
And it will rise
My empire
My empire
My empire
And it will rise again

Again
It will rise
Again

(Here I go, here I go)
My empire
(Here I go, here I go)
My empire
(Here I go, here I go)
My empire
(Here I go, here I go)

My empire
My empire
My empire
And it will rise
My empire
My empire
My empire
And it will rise

And again (my empire)
And again (my empire)
And again (my empire)
And it will rise again
Again

Hopes & Fears lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

You fell down again
Oh, I tried to help you up
It's been a long day
And I think you've had enough

Staring into empty space
Something's always in the way
I will take you to a place far away

From the rooftops and the mountains
Look up, look up at the same view
And the heroes and the cowards
Look up, look up at the hopes and fears
At the hopes and fears

When you're feeling lost
Come to me, I'll take your hand
You just have to trust
I will always understand

Staring into empty space
Something's always in the way
I will take you to a place far away

From the rooftops and the mountains
Look up, look up at the same view
And the heroes and the cowards
Look up, look up at the hopes and fears
At the hopes and fears
At the hopes and fears
At the hopes and fears

Staring into empty space
Something's always in the way
I will take you to a place
Make you feel alive again

Breathing in the ocean air
You can always find me there
You are never all alone
Oh-oh-oh-oh

From the rooftops and the mountains
Look up, look up at the same view
And the heroes and the cowards
Look up, look up
Look up, look up

From the rooftops and the mountains
Look up, look up at the same view
And the heroes and the cowards
Look up, look up at the hopes and fears
At the hopes and fears
At the hopes and fears
At the hopes and fears

Smells Like Teen Spirit lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

(originally by Nirvana)

Load up on guns; bring your friends
It's fun to lose and to pretend
She's over-bored and self-assured
Oh no, I know a dirty word

Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello

With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now; entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now; entertain us
A mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, my libido
Yeah, hey

I'm worse at what I do best
And for this gift I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end

Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello

And I forget just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard; it's hard to find
Oh well, whatever, never mind

Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello

With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now; entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now; entertain us
A mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, my libido
A denial, a denial, a denial, a denial, a denial
A denial, a denial, a denial, a denial

Hunter & Prey lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

Eh yeah eh yeah, eh yeah eh yeah)
(Eh yeah eh yeah, eh yeah eh yeah)

My prison, my cage
Voices creep in when I close my eyes
I try to escape this house with no walls
But I'm still in the dark

It's time to reach, it's time to reach out
It's time to breathe, it's time to breathe out
We'll chase the light

Like hunter and prey we run, run, eh yeah
Hunter and prey chasing each other
Through thunder and flames we run, run, eh yeah
Hunter and prey facing each other

Run, run, eh yeah
Run, run, eh yeah
Hunter and prey

I feel the earth beneath my bare feet
As I walk towards you
The air that I breathe feels new
Full of hope like the whisper came true

I hear your heart, I hear your heartbeat
I feel your arms, your arms around me
We'll chase the light

Like hunter and prey we run, run, eh yeah
Hunter and prey chasing each other
Through thunder and flames we run, run, eh yeah
Hunter and prey facing each other

Run, run, eh yeah
Run, run, eh yeah
Hunter and prey

(Eh yeah eh yeah, eh yeah eh yeah)
(Eh yeah eh yeah, eh yeah eh yeah)

It's time to reach, it's time to reach out
It's time to breathe, it's time to breathe out

I hear your heart (eh yeah)
I hear your heartbeat (eh yeah, eh yeah)
I feel your arms (eh yeah)
Your arms around me (eh yeah, eh yeah)

Like hunter and prey we run, run, eh yeah
Hunter and prey chasing each other
Like hunter and prey we run, run, eh yeah
Hunter and prey facing each other

Run, run, eh yeah
Hunter and prey facing each other

(Run, run, eh yeah) hunter and prey
(Run, run, eh yeah) we're chasing each other
(Run, run, eh yeah) we're just like hunter and prey
(Run, run, eh yeah) we're facing each other
(Eh yeah eh yeah, eh yeah eh yeah)

Change lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

Strolling down empty streets
Voices of the night are slowly fading
Had to come out to breathe
'Cause your love is taking over

I try not to lose my head
I feel my heart is caving in
And there is no one to save me

I can't change, change
I won't change, I'll always be running away
I can't change, change
And I'll never give in to you, I'll always be running away

Now I left you wondering
You've always been clinging to forever
A whisper inside of me
'Cause I don't belong to no one

I try not to lose my head
I feel my heart is caving in
And there is no one to save me

I can't change, change
I won't change, I'll always be running away
I can't change, change
I could never give in to you, I'll always be running away

'Cause I don't belong to no one
'Cause I don't belong to no one
'Cause I don't belong to no one

I try not to lose my head
I feel my heart is caving in
And there is no one to save me

I can't change, change
I won't change, I'll always be running away
I can't change, change
And I'll never give in to you, I'll always be running away

Always be running away
I'll always be running away, away

Only Teardrops lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

The sky is red tonight
We're on the edge tonight
No shooting star to guide us

Eye for an eye
Why tear each other apart?
Please tell me why
Why do we make it so hard?
Look at us now
We only got ourselves to blame
It's such a shame

How many times can we win and lose?
How many times can we break the rules?
Between us
Only teardrops

How many times do we have to fight?
How many times till we get it right?
Between us
Only teardrops

So come and face me now
Here on the stage tonight
Let's leave the past behind us

Eye for an eye
Why tear each other apart?
Please tell me why
Why do we make it so hard?
Look at us now
We only got ourselves to blame
It's such a shame

Tell me
How many times can we win and lose?
How many times can we break the rules?
Between us
Only teardrops

How many times do we have to fight?
How many times till we get it right?
Between us
Only teardrops

(Tell me now)
What's gone between us?
Has come between us?
Only teardrops
(Tell me now)
What's gone between us?
Has come between us?

How many times can we win and lose?
How many times can we break the rules?
Between us
Only teardrops

How many times do we have to fight?
How many times till we get it right?
Between us
Only teardrops
Only teardrops
Oh... only teardrops
Only teardrops

How many times can we win and lose?
How many times can we break the rules?
Between us
Only teardrops

How many times do we have to fight?
How many times till we get it right?
Between us
Only teardrops

What Are You Waiting For lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

The sidewalk is empty
We're standing all alone here
The street light casts a glow on your face

I wish I was so much braver
Maybe if you were braver too
This would all be up to you

What are you waiting for?
Why don't you move in closer?
What are you waiting for?
Don't leave me standing on my own

You're making me insecure
Prove me wrong and win me over
What are you waiting for?

It's raining
I'm aching for you as my shelter
Take me in and keep me safe

I guess I want you 'cause I can't have you
Who decided all these rules
When it's only up to you?

What are you waiting for?
Why don't you move in closer?
What are you waiting for?
Don't leave me standing on my own

You're making me insecure
Prove me wrong and win me over
What are you waiting for?

Here I go again
This is where I stand, yeah
There is nothing you can lose

What are you waiting for?
Why don't you move in closer?
What are you waiting for?
Don't leave me standing on my own

You're making me insecure
Prove me wrong and win me over
What are you waiting for?

What are you waiting for?
Why don't you move in closer?
What are you waiting for?
Don't leave me standing on my own

You're making me insecure
Prove me wrong and win me over
What are you waiting for?

It's raining
I'm aching for you as my shelter
Take me in and keep me safe

Haunted Heart lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

Your ghost still wanders this earth
At night I constantly hurt

I can't sleep, I can't sleep
Your name still reigns in my room
Don't leave me, don't leave me
Where I can't find you

You drain my heart drop by drop
From the night till the dawn you can take what you want
You lay the cards one by one
You're my pleasure and pain, you're my destiny when

Night falls, night falls, night falls, night falls
Falls on my haunted heart
Night falls, night falls, night falls, night falls
Falls on my haunted heart

This love is blessed with a curse
You gave me faith, took my worth

I love you, I hate you
You know I'll never find peace
You thrill me, you kill me
Release the tight leash

You drain my heart drop by drop
From the night till the dawn you can take what you want
You lay the cards one by one
You're my pleasure and pain, you're my destiny when

Night falls, night falls, night falls, night falls
Falls on my haunted heart
Night falls, night falls, night falls, night falls
Falls on my haunted heart

Falls on my haunted heart
Falls on my haunted heart

You drain my heart drop by drop
From the night till the dawn you can take what you want
You lay the cards one by one
You're my pleasure and pain, you're my destiny when

Night falls, night falls, night falls
Falls on my haunted heart
Night falls, night falls, night falls
Falls on my haunted heart

You drain my heart drop by drop
From the night till the dawn you can take what you want

Night falls, night falls, night falls, night falls
Falls on my haunted heart
Night falls, night falls, night falls, night falls
Falls on my haunted heart

Force Of Nature lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

We long to taste forbidden fruit
I turn away but everywhere I look is you
Searching for the passion I found through you

A force of nature
A hurricane with just a word
A waterfall with all of the hurt
This love is, this love is a force of nature

A tidal wave caught in a storm
That washed me up onto your shore
This love is, this love is

As insecure as you are
I built a wall so nobody could find my heart
But we found ourselves where we tried to hide

A force of nature
A hurricane with just a word
A waterfall with all of the hurt
This love is, this love is a force of nature

A tidal wave caught in a storm
That washed me up onto your shore
This love is

You are my oxygen, a love that never dies
We're crossing rivers at sunrise

A hurricane with just a word
A waterfall with all of the hurt
This love is, this love is a force of nature

A tidal wave caught in a storm
That washed me up onto your shore
This love is, this love is a force of nature

Beat The Speed Of Sound lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

Circulate, circulate, circulate
The searching is endless, the journey relentless
In the air, in the air, in the air
Oceans are breaking, senses awakening

In your eyes, there's a storm in your eyes
Call of the wild, a wilderness child
Take a flight in the dawn to the light
Out of the exile, into the clear blue sky, sky, sky, sky

Born to fly high, to run free across the deep sea
Born to fly high, to beat the speed of sound
Soar through the sky, free at mind, close your eyes now
Born to fly high, to beat the speed of sound

Break away, break away, break away
Glide like a condor far from the seashore
Go astray in the dark, lead the way
Dance with the outlaws, dance with the likes of us

Born to fly high, to run free across the deep sea
Born to fly high, to beat the speed of sound
Soar through the sky, free at mind, close your eyes now
Born to fly high, to beat the speed of sound

To beat the speed of sound
Speed of sound

Born to fly high
You soar through the sky

Born to fly high, to run free across the deep sea
Born to fly high, to beat the speed of sound
Soar through the sky, free at mind, close your eyes now
To beat the speed of sound

Soldier Of Love lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

Do you think that we can grow?
Do you think that we can grow in the same way?
Do you think that we can know?
I don't think that is ever gonna change

'Cause you will not love me now
You won't love me though I beg you to
And I am bleeding out

This war is in my head and in my heart (a soldier of love)
These words you say are tearing me apart (a soldier of love)
I can't keep on fighting (a soldier of love)
I can't keep on fighting

I know that I can bend
I know that I can bend as far as you
And my spine is giving in
It's been twisted into shapes I never knew

'Cause you cannot love me now
You can't love me, though you wish you could
And I am bleeding out

This war is in my head and in my heart (a soldier of love)
These words you say are tearing me apart (a soldier of love)
I can't keep on fighting (a soldier of love)
I can't keep on fighting, fighting

No, you cannot love me now
You can't love me and you never could
And I am losing ground
I can't make you feel the way you should

This war is in my head and in my heart
These words you say are tearing me apart
I can't keep on fighting (a soldier of love)
I can't keep on fighting (a soldier of love)
Fighting (a soldier of love)

Running In My Sleep lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

Nightmares have a hold on me
Will this fever ever leave
And wake me from my sleep again?

Careful, I am somewhere else
And I'm walking in the dark, concealing all my scars
I see a new horizon

Over the hills and far away
It's not too late to escape
Yeah, yeah, eh yeah

Over the hills and far away
We're getting nowhere playing safe
Yeah, yeah, eh yeah
Running in my sleep

A chess game all in black and white
In a charade that made me numb
Where black knights keep me from the day

Angels singing as I fall
From a staircase leading to beyond with hypnotizing songs
Leading to new horizons

Over the hills and far away
It's not too late to escape
Yeah, yeah, eh yeah

Over the hills and far away
We're getting nowhere playing safe
Yeah, yeah, eh yeah
Running in my sleep
Running in my sleep

Over the hills and far away
It's not too late to escape
Yeah, yeah, eh yeah

Over the hills and far away
We're getting nowhere playing safe
Yeah, yeah, eh yeah
Running in my sleep

Let It Fall lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

Every sound ricochets
Every word, every phrase
Every sound ricochets

Every dark silhouette
Heavy clouds in my head
Every dark silhouette

I'm walking beside myself
Just like I'm someone else
Lost in the human race

People from scary dreams
Staring from magazines
Nothing is like it seems

But sometimes it's time to let it fall
It's time to smash the crystal ball
And sometimes the pieces make you long
Wipe out the dream once and for all

It's time to let it fall
Find my feet, find the beat again
It's time to let it fall
And finally I can breathe again
It's time to let it fall

Take the cold sapphire
From my soul's empire
Take the cold sapphire

Take my robe, take my crown
All my power, all my pride
Take my whole empire

'Cause sometimes it's time to let it fall
It's time to smash the crystal ball
And sometimes the pieces make you long
Wipe out the dream once and for all

It's time to let it fall
Find my feet, find the beat again
It's time to let it fall
And finally I can breathe again

I'm walking beside myself
Just like I'm someone else
Lost in the human race

People from scary dreams
Staring from magazines
Nothing is like it seems

But sometimes it's time to let it fall
It's time to smash the crystal ball
And sometimes the pieces make you long
Wipe out the dream once and for all

It's time to let it fall
Find my feet, find the beat again
It's time to let it fall
And finally I can breathe again

It's time to let it fall
(Find my feet, find the beat again)
It's time to let it fall
(And finally it's time to breathe again)
It's time to let it fall

Hopscotch lyrics - Emmelie De Forest

I live my life like I'm on a hopscotch
Square one, square two, square three and again
I live my life like I'm on a hopscotch
Going for the perfect ten
I live my life like I'm on a hopscotch
Square one, square two, square three and again
I live my life like I'm on a hopscotch
Going for the perfect ten

White lines on the concrete
Feel the ground underneath my feet
I let the wind in front of me
I hear it calling

Had enough of the comfort zone
I breathe in and I touch the stone
Don't know where this whole thing goes
I jump to find out

They say that I'm insane
But I say it's just a game

I live my life like I'm on a hopscotch
Square one, square two, square three and again
I live my life like I'm on a hopscotch
Going for the perfect ten
I live my life like I'm on a hopscotch
Square one, square two, square three and again
I live my life like I'm on a hopscotch
Going for the perfect ten

Holding on and I don't look back
Want to feel like a maniac
Might end up with a broken leg
I know tomorrow
Everything will be washed away
By the rain of yesterday

Taking on a brand new day
I jump to find out
They say that I'm insane
But I say it's just a game

I live my life like I'm on a hopscotch
Square one, square two, square three and again
I live my life like I'm on a hopscotch
Going for the perfect ten
I live my life like I'm on a hopscotch
Square one, square two, square three and again
I live my life like I'm on a hopscotch
Going for the perfect ten

I won't go back to zero
The way I feel all
The skies are clear
So I laugh, I live, I love
I won't go back to zero
The skies are clear so
Right leg, left leg, both legs and hop

I live my life like I'm on a hopscotch
Square one, square two, square three and again
I live my life like I'm on a hopscotch
Going for the perfect ten
I live my life like I'm on a hopscotch
Square one, square two, square three and again
I live my life like I'm on a hopscotch
Going for the perfect ten

The skies are clear so
The way I feel oh
I laugh, I live, I love
