revelry :: only by the night

the Kings of Leon are keeping me company. a few weeks till they arrive to play The Warfield, looking forward to the live energy, swimming in that. soundtrack for the river is heavy on Kings, and the new release: Only By The Night. they kind of haunt me. hypnotic. over and over i listen.


R E V E L R Y kings of leon

what a night for a dance, you know i'm a dancing machine
with the fire in my bones and the sweet taste of kerosene
i get lost in the night so high i don't wanna come down
to face the loss of the good thing that i have found
woo hoo hoooo
woo hoo hoooo

in the dark of the night i could hear you callin' my name
with the hardest of hearts, i still feel full of pain
so i drink and i smoke and i ask you if your ever around
even though it was me who drove us right in the ground
see the time we shared it was precious to me
but all the while i was dreamin' of revelry

gonna run baby run like a stream down a mountainside
with the wind on my back i won't ever even bat an eye
just know it was you all along who had ahold of my heart
but the demon and me were the best friends from the start
so the time we shared it was precious to me
all the while i was dreamin' of revelry
dreamin' of revelry

and i told myself oh the way you go, it rained so hard it felt like snow
everything came atumbling down on me
in the back of the woods it was darker than night
palest of the old moonlight
everything just felt so [empty]
dreamin' of revelry
dreamin' of revelry
dreamin' of revelry
dreamin' of revelry
