Foster The People - Pay The Man lyrics

[Intro] What you mean, what you mean? What you mean, man, what you mean? What you mean, yeah, what you see? What you see, yeah, oh yeah [Verse 1] Well I need a little something to pull my head off Need a little something to pull my head off, yeah Need a little something Because I've been running from the truth Will never lose Lies come from loose teeth Tied to the noose Climbing up my own tree hoping it can hold All the things I've seen but I've chosen to ignore Well, I said, well I believe I've been well fed, yeah But the wolf's not dead [Chorus] Say what you love, it's alright Don't be afraid to find the light Embrace the day, like night We hear the fire We all go wild again And you have the name Of someone I love You said, just keep it true Lift up your name Seasons change You know it'll never be the same We'll see the sun again Before it fades I just wanna say that I love you [Verse 2] Pay the man, pay the man Got to pay the man Run as fast as you can Call out to God, praise to the Most High Call out for help cause I'm playing with fire Call out to mountains till my voice goes faint Echoes through time that goes back with new strength [Interlude] And when it's raining We're sailing Oh yeah, we're sailing We're sailing [Verse 3] I'm off the leash I go to war for peace Must've been touching everything that I can I've got blood on my hands Guess I'm going deaf with the cry of this sin Please forgive me I don't understand We all believe we've been well fed, yeah [Pre-Chorus 2] The deaf man heard what the mute man said Then they all followed where the blind man led [Chorus] Say what you love, it's alright Don't be afraid to find the light Embrace the day, like night We hear the fire We all go wild again And you have the name Of someone I love You said, just keep it true Lift up your name Seasons change You know it'll never be the same We'll see the sun again Before it fades I just wanna say that I love you [Bridge] (Pay the man, pay the man, pay the man) Pay the man, you got to pay the man Pay the man, you got to pay the man Pay the man I was laughing real hard until my teeth fell out Laughing real hard until my teeth fell out Was laughing real hard but my teeth fell out Need a little something, yeah Need a little something (A little something, little something, little something) [Chorus] You said, just keep it true Lift up your name Seasons change You know it'll never be the same We'll see the sun again Before it fades I just wanna say that I love you [Outro] Can't you see Can't see me Can't see me Can't see me And can't see me Can't see me We all run when the light comes on Am I wrong, for wanting it all? But I warned you
