Of Monsters and Men - Sloom

The sea said goodbye to the shore so the sun wouldn't notice
The seaweed that wrapped its arms around you

The carpet on my cheek feels like a forest
And I run through the tall trees with your hands chasing me

The books that I keep by my bags are full of your stories
That I drew up from a little dream of mine, a little nightmare of yours

To be asked to take this plunge, to forgive and forget
And be the better man, to be a better man, to be a better man

So love me, mother
And love me, father
And love my sister as well

The cat's silhouette, as big as a monster
In this concrete jungle, with streetlights hanging their heads

So make all your last demands, for I will forsake you
And I'll meet your eyes for the very first time, for the very last

So love me, mother
And love me, father
And love my sister as well

So love me, mother
And love me, father
And love my brother as well

So love me, mother
And love me, father
And love my sister as well

So love me, mother
And love me, father
And love my brother as well

I met a man today and he smiled back at me
Now there are thoughts like these that keep me on my feet
That keep me on my feet
