Ezra Koenig - Everlasting Arms lyrics

[Verse 1] I took your counsel and came to ruin Leave me to myself, leave me to myself I took your counsel and came to ruin Leave me to myself, lead me to myself [Pre-Chorus] Oh I was made to live without you But I'm never gonna understand, never understand Oh I was born to live without you But I'm never gonna understand, never understand [Chorus] Hold me in your everlasting arms Looked up full of fear, trapped beneath a chandelier That's going down [Verse 2] I thought it over, and drew the curtain Lead me to my cell, lead me to my cell I hummed the Dies Irae as you played the Hallelujah Lead me to my cell, don't leave me in my cell [Pre-Chorus] If you'd been made to serve a master You'd be frightened by the open hand, frightened by the hand Could I have been made to serve a master? Well I'm never gonna understand, never understand [Chorus] Hold me in your everlasting arms Looked up full of fear, trapped beneath the chandelier That's going down Hold me in your everlasting arms Looked up full of fear, trapped beneath the chandelier That's going down Hold me in your everlasting arms
