Foxes - We Are Islands lyrics

[Verse 1] I never knew fire ever burned so long I've learned a lot from you, but lessons still grow old I've lost the only light that ever guides me home When it gets so cold [Pre-Chorus] We are like islands, lost in the ocean Caught in the silence, without emotion We are like islands, nothing surrounds me I'm holding on now, and I won't let go [Chorus] We close our eyes and dance Burn to the strength of our heartbeat So let's burn it out, let's burn it out Let's burn it to the ground We close our eyes and dance Burn to the strength of our heartbeat So let's burn it out, let's burn it out Let's burn it to the ground [Verse 2] I never thought that we could ever go this far You are the only one that's ever shared my love We let the good thing go and then we lost our way When it gets so cold [Pre-Chorus] We are like islands, lost in the ocean Caught in the silence, without emotion

We are like islands, nothing surrounds me I'm holding on now, and I won't let go [Chorus] We close our eyes and dance Burn to the strength of our heartbeat So let's burn it out, let's burn it out Let's burn it to the ground We close our eyes and dance Burn to the strength of our heartbeat So let's burn it out, let's burn it out Let's burn it to the ground [Bridge] We are, we are, we are We are like islands We are, we are, we are We are like islands One night is all we have And I wanna waste it all on you So let's burn it out, let's burn it out Let's burn it to the ground [Chorus] We close our eyes and dance Burn to the strength of our heartbeat So let's burn it out, let's burn it out Let's burn it to the ground We close our eyes and dance Burn to the strength of our heartbeat So let's burn it out, let's burn it out Let's burn it to the ground
