The 1975 - If I Believe You Lyrics

The 1975 - If I Believe You Lyrics

(Verse)
Oh God, I feel shameful
That's infecting
And I bet ya thought of being alone now
It's pathetic, I know

(Pre-Chorus)
And I tossed and I turn in my bed
It's just like I lost my head (lost my head)

(Chorus)
And if I believe ya
Will that make it stop?
If I told ya I need ya
Is that what ya want?
And I'm broken and bleeding
And begging for help
And I'm asking ya Jesus, show yourself

(Verse 2)
I thought I met ya once or twice
And that was just a case of _____(?) opening up
My mind, showing me consciousness, its prime we in the universe
And I had a revelation
I'll be yo child if ya insist
I mean, a bit misuse ____(?)
Ya shouldn't have probably made me atheist
I thought I'm ____(?) through yo kiss
I'm an evangelist
And if ya don't want to go to hell I guess ya betta start selling this

(Chorus)

(Outro)
If I'm lost then how can I find myself? (x2)
If I'm lost now then how can I find myself? (x2)
If I'm lost then how can I find myself?
Then how can I find myself?
If I'm lost now then how can I find myself?
Yeah, yeah, yeah
If I'm lost now then how can I find myself?
Yeah, yeah

The 1975 - Lostmyhead Lyrics

(Verse x2)
And u said I've lost my head
Can u see it? Can u see it?
Belly aches while you're in bed
Can u feel it? Can u feel it?

The 1975 - She's American Lyrics

The 1975 - She's American Lyrics

(Verse)
A big town
Synthetic apparitions of not bein' lonely
'Look! He's havin' a breakdown'
'Oh, what a let down, a shame, I think he might die!'
She's dancin' enthrallin', I guess I gotta wait my turn
I said, 'Don't fall in luv with the moment'
She said I've got a lot to learn

(Pre-Chorus)
U know I'm in luv with this city
But the green is turnin' brown
And I just look pathetic now

(Chorus)
If she likes it cuz we just don't eat
And we're so intelligent, she's American
If she says I've got to fix my teeth
Then she's so American (she's American)
If she likes it cuz we just don't eat
And we're socially relevant, she's American
If she says I've got to fix my teeth
Then she's so American (she's American)

(Verse 2)
She's inducin' sleep to avoid pain
And I think she's got a gun divinely decreed and custom made
She calls on the phone like the old days, expectin' the world
Don't fall in luv with the moment
And think you're in luv with the girl

(Pre-Chorus)
There's no more water in this city
But be careful or you'll drown
You think you've got it figured out

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
Well, ur face has got a hold on me
But ur brain is proper weird
Are u feeling the same?
You just keep nodding at me looking vacant

(Chorus)

The 1975 - Somebody Else Lyrics

The 1975 - Somebody Else Lyrics

(Verse)
So I heard you found somebody else
And at first, I thought it was a lie
I took all my things that make sounds
The rest I can do without

(Chorus)
I don't want your body
But I hate to think about u with somebody else
Our luv has gone cold
You're intertwinin' ur soul with somebody else
I'm lookin' thru' u
While you're lookin' thru' yo phone
And then leavin' with somebody else
No, I don't want ur body
But I'm picturin' ur body with somebody else

(Post-Chorus x4)
I don't want ur body, I don't want ur body

(Verse 2)
Come mon baby (I know)
This ain't the last time that I'll see yo face
Come mon baby (I know)
You said you'd find someone to take my place

(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, I just don't believe that u have got it in u
Cos we are just gonna keep 'doin' it' and every time
I start to believe in anythin' you're sayin'
I'm reminded that I should be gettin' ova it

(Chorus)

(Post-Chorus)

(Bridge x2)
Get someone ya luv? Get someone you need?
Fuck that, get money
I can't give u my soul, cos we're neva alone
Get someone ya luv? Get someone u need?
Fuck that, get money
I can't give u my soul, cos we're neva alone

(Instrumental break)

(Chorus)

The 1975 - Nana Lyrics

The 1975 - Nana Lyrics

I wish you'd walk in again
Imagine if ya just did
I'd fill ya in on the things ya missed
Oh sleepless nights, a grown up man dressed in white
Who I thought might just save yo life
But he couldn't, so ya died

I don't like it, now you're dead
It's not the same when I scratch my own head
I haven't got the nails for it
And I know that God doesn't exist
And all of the palaver surroundin' it
But I like to think ya hear me sometimes

So I reached for a borrowed fleece
From my dad ______(?)
Always tryna keep warm, when you're the sun

I sat with ya beside yo bed and cried
For things that I wish I'd said
Ya still had yo nose red
And if I live past seventy two, I hope I'm half as cool as ya

I got my pen and thought that I'd write
A melody and line for ya tonight
I think that's how I make things feel alright

Made in my room, this simple tune
Will always keep me close to ya
The crowds will sing their voices ring
And it's like ya neva left

But I'm bereft ya see
I think ya can tell
I haven't been doin' too well

The 1975 - She Lays Down Lyrics

The 1975 - She Lays Down Lyrics

(Verse)
And she lays down on her bedroom floor
The chemicals that make her laugh
Don't seem to be workin' anymore
She tries her best, but it hurts her chest
And even though her sun is gone
She lights like a child neva the less
My hair is brown, she's scared to touch
And she just wants to feel somethin'
And I don't think that's askin' for too much
And when I go to sleep it's when she begins to weep

(Chorus)
She's appalled by not luvin' me at all
She wears a frown and dressin' gown
When she lays down

(Verse 2)
Well we got a plane, goin' to see my dad again
She prayed that we fell from the sky
Simply to immediate the pain
Ova the water, hmm, ova terrain
The engines all go bust, we turned to dust
No reason to complain, yeah
And in the end, she chose cocaine
But it couldn't fix her brain

(Chorus)

(Outro)
That was it

The 1975 - The Ballad of Me and My Brain Lyrics

The 1975 - The Ballad of Me and My Brain Lyrics

(Verse)
And well, I think I've gone mad, isn't that so sad?
And what a shame you've lost a brain that u neva had
How much for a car? It can't have gone far
I must have left it on a train or lost in a bar
It’s likely in a Sainsbury’s
Flirtin' wit the girls that waited for me
I've tried my best to clear my name
Askin' anybody that's seen my brain
The brain was last seen goin' for a run
And would ya sign an autograph for my daughter, Laura
Cuz she adores ya, but I think you’re shit
I’ve got to look for my brain for a bit
I stand outside and hide my eyes
Well, what do ya expect when you've got no mind?
Say it's a slow day, it drives me insane
Where would I be if I was my brain?

The 1975 - Loving Someone Lyrics

The 1975 - Loving Someone Lyrics

(Chorus)
Yeah, ya should be luvin' someone
Oh, oh, luvin' someone
Yeah, ya should be luvin' someone
Oh, oh, luvin' someone
Yeah, ya should be

(Verse)
My heart is tellin' me the telly isn't tellin' me anythin'
I need but it needs to keep ya sellin' me
Besides celebrities lackin' in integrity
Holdin' up the status quo instead of showin' yo kids
That they matter, who're ya gonna buy up next
Keep hold of their necks and keep sellin' them sex
It’s betta if we keep them perplexed
It's betta if we make them want the opposite sex
And this drives drunk through criminal minds
And ya camp out beside where yo man resides
You're not slow, it's just neva been shown
That ya should

(Chorus)

(Verse 2)
We're all human, we're just like ya man
We're sentient, we're somethin'
Ya know I can't really remember, whateva
We shouldn't have people afloat
If it was safer underground, we wouldn't be on a boat
Shot of telepathy, exploitin' insecurities and preyin' on the purity
Of grief and it's simplicity but I know that maybe I'm too scared to call
Even Guy Debord needed spectacles, ya see
I'm the Greek economy of cashin' intellectual cheques
And now I'm tryin' to progress, but instead of sellin' sex
And I think I should be

(Chorus)

(Interlude: spoken)
I am foreva alongside the boys in jumpers on bikes
With scarves and cars with autumn leaves
Fallin' in spirals across the mid afternoon
Which plays the battle culturally
Which is not goin' to exist on a simple interface
When they feel and miss when ____(?) tested
Individuals who understand the human condition
Then they understand the duality of our own reality
Livin' life and treatin' it as such

The 1975 - Paris Lyrics

The 1975 - Paris Lyrics

(Verse)
She said hello, she was lettin' me know
We shared friends in Soho
She is a pain in the nose
And I'm a pain in women's clothes
And you're a walkin' overdose in a great coat
And so she wrote a plan for it on the back of a fag packet
She had to leave because she couldn't hack it
Not a lot of noise and too much racket
I think I've spent all my money and ur friends, oh

(Chorus x2)
But how I'd love to go to Paris again

(Verse 2)
Mr. Serotonin Man, lend me a gram
You call yoself a friend?
I got two left feet and I'm startin' to cheat
On my girlfriend again
I caught a pinky in her nose
As the crowd cheered for an overdose
And I don't suppose u know where this train goes
There was a party that u had to miss
Because ur friend kept cuttin' her wrists
Hyperpoliticized sexual trysts
'Oh, I think my boyfriend's a nihilist'
I said 'Hey kids we're all just the same, what a shame'

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)
Oh stop bein' an asshole
And countin' my eye rolls
And like pistols falls in the snow
______(?)
Keepin' payin' the tab on my half
Man u puttin' me up on a shelf
Well I believed you're clean
But only I've seen ur fist for myself
And then she pointed at a bag of her dreams
In a well posh magazine
I said 'I'm done, babe, I'm out of the scene'
But I was pickin' up from Bethnal Green
She said I've been romanticizin' heroin

(Chorus)

The 1975 - This Must Be My Dream Lyrics

The 1975 - This Must Be My Dream Lyrics

(Verse)
I personify that unless I'm on the [phone?]
Speakin' like I'm bigger than my body
I personify that like a freedom in ur life
And I'm sure she'll be gone in a second

(Pre-Chorus)
Let me tell u about this girl
I thought she rearranged my world
Takes a particular type of girl
To put my heart under arrest
So why is this feelin' on my chest?

(Chorus)
(This must be my dream)
Wide awake before I found u
(This must be my dream)
I can't wait for u, boy
(Wake me from my dream)
You're like the sum I'll neva amount to
(This must be my dream)
We can make luv in the fire around me, baby

(Verse 2)
Pipe down now luva
This feelin' keeps ur body tune
While I thought it was luv
But I guess I must be dreamin'
'Bout feelin' somethin' instead of u

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus)

(Break)

(Chorus x2)

The 1975 - The Sound Lyrics

The 1975 - The Sound Lyrics

(Intro)
Well I know when you're around cause I know the sound
I know the sound, of yo heart
Well I know when you're around cause I know the sound
I know the sound, of yo heart

(Chorus)
Well I know when you're around cause I know the sound
I know the sound, of yo heart
Well I know when you're around cause I know the sound
I know the sound, of yo heart

(Verse)
I can't believe I forgot yo name
Oh baby won't ya cum again?
She said 'I've got a problem with yo shoes'
'And yo tunes, but I might move in'
'And I thought that ya were straight, now I'm wondering'

(Pre-Chorus)
You're so conceited, I said 'I love ya'
What does it matter if I lie to ya?
I don't regret it but I'm glad that we're through
So don't ya tell me that ya 'just don't get it'
Cuz I know ya do

(Chorus)

(Verse 2)
It's not about reciprocation, it's just all about me
A sycophantic, prophetic, Socratic junkie wannabe
There's so much skin to see
A simple Epicurean philosophy
And ya say I'm such a cliché
I can't see the difference in it either way
And we left things to protect my mental health
But you'll call me when you're bored and you're playing with yoself

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus)

(Solo: Adam Hann)

The 1975 - ILIWYSFYASBYSUOI Lyrics

The 1975 - ILIWYSFYASBYSUOI Lyrics

Go down
Soft sound
Midnight
Car lights
Playin' wit the air
Breathin' in yo hair
Go down
Soft sound
Step into yo skin? I'd rather jump in yo bones
Takin' up yo mouth so ya breathe thru' yo nose

The 1975 - UGH! Lyrics

The 1975 - UGH! Lyrics

(Verse)
Hey boy stop pacin' around the room
Usin' otha people's faces as a mirror for ya
I know yo lungs need fillin'
Since yo gums have lost their feelin'
But don't say that you're givin' it up again
'Do ya have a card?'
'My irregular heart beat is startin' to correct itself'
It's just a simple diarrhetic that prevents the empathetic
From bein' just and givin' it up

(Chorus)
And you're the only thing that's goin' on in my mind
Takin' ova my life a second time
I don't have the capacity for fuckin'
You're meant to be helpin' me
When I said I liked it better without my money, I lied
It took a little while to recognize
That I, I'm not givin' it up again

(Verse 2)
This conversation's not about reciprocation no more
But I'm gon' wait until ya finish so I can talk some more
About me and my things, my car, my livin'
And how I'm givin' it up, givin' it up again

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
Oh the kick won't last for long
But the song only lasts 3 minutes
I think I've lost my phone
So won't ya call it up for me?
Oh the kick won't last for long
But the song only lasts three minutes
And I know it's wrong, but give me one

(Chorus)

(Outro)
I'm not givin' it up (x3)
I'm not givin' it up, givin' it up (x2)

The 1975 - Love Me Lyrics

The 1975 - Love Me Lyrics

(Verse)
Hey! Would ya like to look outside sometimes? (No!)
I'm just with my friends online & there's things we'd like to change!
Next thing you'll find you're readin' about yoself on a plane, fame, what a shame! (Oh!)
Well, just keep lookin', lookin', lookin', lookin'!

(Chorus)
And love me (Yeah)
If that's what ya want to do (Oh, yeah)
And love me (Yeah)
If that's what ya want to do (Oh, yeah)

(Verse 2)
You've been readin' about yoself on a plane, fame for a change
Caught up in fashion, Karcrashian panache
And a bag of bash for passion
She got a beautiful face but got nothin' to say (Oh!)
'Ya look famous, let's be friends & portray we possess somethin' important
And do the things we'd like'
'We've just come to represent
A decline in the standards of what we accept!'
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah?!
No!'

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
Oh so sack off yo calendar, give it to the people!
Be the man that gets them up on their feet
Say 'Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh'

(Chorus)
