Friendly Fire Lyrics by Neon Trees

Becoming Different People

0

[Verse 1]
I met you last January
At a party for some people I had met a couple nights before
We got social and some things got heavy for a while
But the past is the past, you don't tell and don’t ask
And honestly, I was shook
There was tension on the telephone
And days and days of awkward looks
Passed down by a boy with the crown
And a decade of feeling this way made me try to forget you
[Pre-Chorus]
But then the tension starts to grow
And your attention had me thrilled
I couldn't stop myself...
All of the friends inside the circle
All of these friends I never had
[Chorus]
We are in our final days, I can feel it
And you predicted a change this year
No one ever knows no one
I'm dying for the first time, lost for words
Somebody figure me out
I’m a nervous wreck and I'm afraid to let you in
No one ever knows no one, no one ever knows no one
[Verse 2]
So unwrinkle these mistakes
It makes me recall different days
I've seen the ends of people trying to be free
And the lines and limousines
That create torrential downpours inside of me
Lead me to believe that I'm a hurricane
And my intentions are to shock and destroy
[Pre-Chorus]
But then the tension starts to grow
And your attention had me thrilled
I couldn't stop myself...
All of the friends inside the circle
All of these friends I never had
[Chorus]
We are in our final days, I can feel it
And you predicted a change this year
No one ever knows no one
I'm dying for the first time, lost for words
Somebody figure me out
I'm a nervous wreck and I'm afraid to let you in
No one ever knows no one, no one ever knows no one
[Bridge]
Ahhhh, ahhhh, ahhhh, ahhhh
Now you’ve told me lies I can never forget
I can only detect the beating in my chest
Of the way they think, of the way they act, of the way they do
Now you’ve told me lies I can never forget
I can only detect the beating in my chest
Of the way they think, of the way they act, of the way they do
No!
[Outro]
(We are becoming different people!)
No one ever knows no one, no one ever knows no one
No one ever knows no one, that's right!
