Petrify Lyrics by Cavetown

2015

[Verse 1]
Today nothing's gone right
Thinking I'll pack bags tonight
Ooh, get out the rain
I know you don't feel fine
Won't make it out this fight alive
Ooh, heal the pain

[Chorus]
With your mind in gear
There's nothing I can't put to die and
All that's drawing near
Are the darkest dreams to petrify your soul
Ooh, get out the rain
Ooh, a dark house feels safe

[Verse 2]
Sometimes you wear me out
I wish that I could breathe somehow
Ooh, get out my head
My skin turns inside out
Crystallise as I strain to shout
Ooh, nothing comes out

[Outro]
Nothing's coming out (There's nothing I can't put to die and)
(All that's drawing near)
(Are the darkest dreams to petrify your soul)
(Ooh, a dark house feels safe)
