Arcade Fire - Rebellion (Lies)

Sleeping is giving in

No matter what the time is

Sleeping is giving in

So lift those heavy eyelids

People say that you'll die

Faster than without water

But we know it's just a lie

Scare your son, scare your daughter

People say that your dreams

Are the only things that save you

Come on baby, in our dreams

We can live our misbehavior

Every time you close your eyes (lies, lies!)

Every time you close your eyes (lies, lies!)

Every time you close your eyes (lies, lies!)

Every time you close your eyes (lies, lies!)

Every time you close your eyes

Every time you close your eyes

Every time you close your eyes

Every time you close your eyes

People try and hide the night

Underneath the covers

People try and hide their lies

Underneath the covers

Come on hide the lovers

Underneath the covers

Come on hide the lovers

Underneath the covers

Hiding from your brothers

Underneath the covers

Come on hide the lovers

Underneath the covers

People say that you'll die

Faster than without water

But I know it's just a lie

Scare your son, scare your daughter

Scare your son, scare your daughter

Scare your son, scare your daughter

Now here's the sun, it's alright! (Lies! Lies!)

Now here's the moon, it's alright! (Lies! Lies!)

Now here's the sun, it's alright! (Lies! Lies!)

Now here's the moon, it's alright! (Lies! Lies!)

But every time you close your eyes (Lies! Lies!)

Every time you close your eyes (lies, lies!)

Every time you close your eyes (lies, lies!)

Every time you close your eyes (lies, lies!)

Every time you close your eyes

Every time you close your eyes

Every time you close your eyes

Arcade Fire - Neighborhood #3 (Power Out)

I woke up with the power out
Not really something to shout about
Ice has covered up my parents hands
Don't have any dreams, don't have any plans

I went out into the night
I went out to find some light
Kids are swingin' from the power lines
Nobody's home, so nobody minds

I woke up on the darkest night
Neighbors all were shoutin' that they found the light
"We found the light!"
Shadows jumpin' all over my walls
Some of them big, some of them small

I went out into the night
I went out to pick a fight with anyone
Light a candle for the kids
Jesus Christ don't keep it hid!

Ooh! Ooh! Ooh!

Ice has covered up my parents hands
Don't have any dreams, don't have any plans
Growin' up in some strange storm
Nobody's cold, nobody's warm

I went out into the night
I went out to find some light
Kids are dyin' out in the snow,
Look at them go, look at them go!

Ooh! Ooh! Ooh!
Ooh! Ooh! Ooh!

And the power's out
In the heart of man
Take it from your heart
Put it in your hand

What's the plan? What's the plan?

Is it a dream? Is it a lie?
I think I'll let you decide
Just light a candle for the kids
Jesus Christ don't keep it hid!

'Cause nothing's hid
From us kids
You ain't foolin' nobody
With the lights out!

Ooh! Ooh! Ooh!

And the power's out
In the heart of man
Take it from your heart
Put it in your hand

And there's something wrong
In the heart of man
Take it from your heart
Put it in your hand

Where'd you go?!

Arcade Fire - Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels)

And if the snow buries my...
My neighborhood

And if my parents are crying,
Then I'll dig a tunnel from my window to yours
Yeah, a tunnel from my window to yours

You climb out the chimney
And meet me in the middle
The middle of the town
And since there's no one else around,
We let our hair grow long and forget all we used to know
Then our skin gets thicker from living out in the snow

You change all the lead sleeping in my head
As the day grows dim, I hear you sing a golden hymn...

Then, we tried to name our babies
But we forgot all the names that,
The names we used to know
But sometimes,
We remember our bedrooms and our parent's bedrooms and the bedrooms of our friends
Then we think of our parents...
Well, whatever happened to them?!

You change all the lead sleeping in my head to gold
As the day grows dim, I hear you sing a golden hymn
It's the song I've been trying to sing...

Purify the colors, purify my mind
Purify the colors, purify my mind
And spread the ashes of the colors over this heart of mine!

Arcade Fire - Wake Up

Somethin' filled up
my heart with nothin',
someone told me not to cry.

But now that I'm older,
my heart's colder,
and I can see that it's a lie.

Children wake up,
hold your mistake up,
before they turn the summer into dust.

If the children don't grow up,
our bodies get bigger but our hearts get torn up.
We're just a million little gods causin' rain storms turnin' every good thing to rust.

I guess we'll just have to adjust.

With my lightnin' bolts a glowin'
I can see where I am goin' to be
when the reaper he reaches and touches my hand.

With my lightnin' bolts a glowin'
I can see where I am goin’
With my lightnin' bolts a glowin'
I can see where I am, go-go, where I am

You'd better look out below
