Kings Of Leon - Only By The Night (2008) - Closer lyrics

  • Stranded in this spooky town
    Stoplights are swaying and the phone lines are down
    This floor is crackling cold
    She took my heart, I think she took my soul
    With the moon I run
    Far from the carnage of the fiery sun

    Driven by the strangled vein
    Showing no mercy I do it again
    Open up your eye
    You keep on crying, baby
    I’ll bleed you dry
    The skies are blinking at me
    I see a storm bubbling up from the sea

    And it's coming closer
    And it's coming closer

    You, shimmy shook my bone
    Leaving me stranded all in love on my own
    What do you think of me
    Where am I now? Baby where do I sleep
    Feel so good but I'm old,
    2000 years of chasing taking its toll

    And it’s coming closer
