Bastille - Power lyrics
[Bastille - Power lyrics]
Aim, throw your best shot right at me
'Cause pain, I can take it easily
Did you really think I'd fall to my knees
Just to pray for some sweet simplicity?
'Cause whoa, you're squeezing my heart
Too hard in your bare hands
They hold too tight
And whoa the air is on fire
This room feels electric
Caught here in your sights
Power, power
I will never understand the power
You were holding over me power, power
Oh you had it too long
Yes you had it too long
Pain, just synapses firing in our brains
So when you cut me, cut me deep
Hurt the ones you love the most easily
'Cause in time we show our Achilles' heels
'Cause whoa, you're squeezing my heart
Too hard in your cold bare hands
They hold too tight
And whoa the air is on fire
This room feels electric
Caught here in your sights
Power, power
I will never understand the power
You were holding over me power, power
Oh you had it too long
Yes you had it too long
If you're gonna hit me, hit me harder
(Hit me, hit me harder)
'Cause you better knock me out the first time
And if you’re gonna do this rip the plaster
(Do this rip the plaster)
If you're gonna hit me
Hit me harder than this power, power
Blows my mind to think I ever
Let you hold it over me
Power, power
I will never understand the way I
Let you hold it over me power, power
Well you had it too long
Yes you had it too long
Power, oh, oh, power, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh power, power
I let you had it too long
Yes you had it too long
'Cause pain, I can take it easily
Did you really think I'd fall to my knees
Just to pray for some sweet simplicity?
'Cause whoa, you're squeezing my heart
Too hard in your bare hands
They hold too tight
And whoa the air is on fire
This room feels electric
Caught here in your sights
Power, power
I will never understand the power
You were holding over me power, power
Oh you had it too long
Yes you had it too long
Pain, just synapses firing in our brains
So when you cut me, cut me deep
Hurt the ones you love the most easily
'Cause in time we show our Achilles' heels
'Cause whoa, you're squeezing my heart
Too hard in your cold bare hands
They hold too tight
And whoa the air is on fire
This room feels electric
Caught here in your sights
Power, power
I will never understand the power
You were holding over me power, power
Oh you had it too long
Yes you had it too long
If you're gonna hit me, hit me harder
(Hit me, hit me harder)
'Cause you better knock me out the first time
And if you’re gonna do this rip the plaster
(Do this rip the plaster)
If you're gonna hit me
Hit me harder than this power, power
Blows my mind to think I ever
Let you hold it over me
Power, power
I will never understand the way I
Let you hold it over me power, power
Well you had it too long
Yes you had it too long
Power, oh, oh, power, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh power, power
I let you had it too long
Yes you had it too long
