Cavetown Songs As Stories

ALBUM 1: Cavetown

[Chorus]
It's okay we're just scared (it's okay we're just scared)
It's okay we're just scared (it's okay we're just scared)
It's okay we're just scared (it's okay we're just scared)
It's okay we're just scared (it's okay...)

[Verse 3]
I forgot about the note I left on my back door (on my back door)
But it's alright, I'll stay here inside with my friends who aren't here anymore

[Bridge]
Actually, you know what?
The way things are isn't good enough
Actually, you know what?
The way things are isn't good enough
Actually, you know what?
The way things are isn't good enough
Actually, you know what?
The way things are isn't good enough
Actually, you know what?
The way things are isn't good enough

[Outro]
We're alive and we're here
Listen please 'cause we're scared
We're alive and we're here
We will scream 'til you hear
We're alive and we're here
Listen please 'cause we're scared
We're alive and we're here
We will scream 'til you hear

LYRICS TO HAZEL:

[Verse 1]
I'm awake again at 3am
My head's so tired but I don't care
No, I don't
Outside the sky looks like it's burning down but
I won't fear
No, I won't

[Chorus]
Falling down like angels fighting
Stars and lightening hold me tightly
Hold me tightly

[Verse 2]
Close your blinds tonight
They'll soften and disperse the light and
If you're lucky a car might drive by
And the headlights fill your ceiling with shooting stars
Works of art
Waiting for your arms to part
And welcome in my beating heart
Badum, badum, badum, badum

[Chorus]
Falling down like angels fighting
Stars and lightening hold me tightly
(Hold me tight like angels fighting
Stars and lightening hold me tightly
Hold me tight like angels fighting
Stars and lightening hold me tightly)

Hold me tightly

LYRICS TO UNTITLED V.2:

[Verse 1]
I know my hands aren't warm enough to hold your cold, cold heart
And I know my bones aren't strong enough to keep me from
Falling apart

[Verse 2]
Did you know sometimes I dig into the carpet with my feet?
And did you know that every night I play your favourite songs on repeat? (Repeat)
It helps me sleep (It helps me sleep)
Because my hair is growing backwards and my knees are bending inwards
And monsters in the closet won't stop giving me the shivers
Even though it's probably just in my mind

(Heart, heart, heart...)

LYRICS TO BANANA BREAD:

[Verse 1]
You're falling further down but I've got you by a thread
I wrap the cord around my arms until my hands start to turn red
But it's not enough, it won't be enough to save you

[Verse 2]
She's so in love with all the things I hate most about myself
I'm so in love with all the sounds she makes when she smiles
And well, it's a little tough, to put acorn shells on ice sheets
Without breaking through, and flooding the whole town

[Verse 3]
I hope you're alright
I didn't wanna wake up last night
'Cause I quite liked the dream I had of holding your hand
It's funny how slowly time goes when my thoughts have been racin' all this time

[Verse 4]
It's alright to feel a little bit of darkness now and then
I know I've said it once but I still tell myself again and again
You'll never be enough, but what is enough?
You're selfless
Isn't that enough?

[Verse 5]
Banana bread before I go to bed'll put the bees to sleep
Otherwise they'd buzz and sting my lungs all night inside of me
Just wait a little while, you don't cry too much
You know that when you smile, the sun shines more gently

LYRICS TO DEVIL TOWN:

[Verse 1]
Life's alright in Devil Town
They're right, no one's gonna catch us now
Dad has bought a new car now
We're fine, no one's gonna catch us now

[Verse 2]
You said something dumb again
She's mad, at least that's what they say
Mum and Daddy aren't in love
That's fine, I'll settle for two birthdays

[Chorus]
Devil Town is colder in the summertime
I'll lose my mind at least another thousand times
Hold my hand tight, we'll make it another night
I still get a little scared of something new
But I feel a little safer when I'm with you
Falling doesn't feel so bad when I know you've fallen this way too

[Verse 3]
We're all dead in Devil Town
That's fine, 'cause nothing's gonna scare us now
We're all in our dressing gowns, mine's white
And stripey, yours is green and brown

[Verse 4]
I forgot my name again
I think that's something worth remembering
Spiders in your favourite shoes
Just leave them because they're more scared of you

[Chorus]
Devil town is colder in the summertime
I'll lose my mind at least another thousand times
Hold my hand tight, we'll make it another night
I still get a little scared of something new
But I feel a little safer when I'm with you
Falling doesn't feel so bad when I know you've fallen this way too

[Chorus]
Devil town is colder in the summertime
I'll lose my mind at least another thousand times
Hold my hand tight, we'll make it another night
I still get a little scared of something new
But I feel a little safer when I'm with you
Falling doesn't feel so bad when I know you've fallen this way too
