I've cried to this song, both sad and happy tears, I've smiled to this song, laughed to it, thought to it, even listened during school. i have so many emotions tied into this song, and I'm so glad I ran into it.
In only recently discovered this band. Most of their music seems to float. But this song...it's like a hurricane. First it seems to be above your head, but then comes that guitar solo and it seems to pull you up in the air.
some change suggestions: 00:27 "We're awake, this everything." 00:56 "Leave it on a lie, leave it your own way." 2:45 "No one sees me when I'm out here waiting." 2:47 "They don't mind, they don't hear--I hear." 3:25 "Oh, I've tried to see it on the bridge now, baby...I don't see it anywhere I go, babe, yeah." 3:33 "Yeah...whoo!" 3:56 "While I see you again...." 4:03 "Walkin' in the downtown, talk to my soul." 4:14 "I can see it in the darkness, covering my mind." Lyrics: Come and see We're awake, this everything On my way Beat it down, to get to my soul. Against my will Anyone can tell it's you coming Baby don't mind Leave it on a lie, leave it your own way. Come and ride away It's easier to stick to the earth Surrounded by the night Surrounded by the night, and you don't grow old But you abuse my faith Losing every time, but I don't know where You're on my side again So ride the key wherever it goes I'll be the one I can...whoo! :D You're all I've got to wait You're running in the dark, and I come to my soul You can see it through the dark, it's coming my way Well, we won't get lost inside a-gain, babe. Am I right No one sees me, when I'm out here waiting They don't mind, they don't hear--I hear. It's on the back way of my mind, against it I would keep you here, but I can't Oh, I've tried to see it on the bridge now, baby I don't see it anywhere I go, babe, yeah. Yeah, whoo!! :D While I see you again The easy way to come to my soul Walking in the downtown, talk to my soul They won't get lost inside it all You're on my way I can see it in the darkness, covering my mind Well, we're here, don't get lost inside And we won't get lost inside it all You're on my way. Note: Adam Granduciel slightly changes lyrics when performing live...it's very rarely the same lyrics twice.
Come and see Where I witness everything On my knees Beat it down to get to my soul Against my will Anyone can tell it's you coming Baby don't mind Leave it on the line, leave it hanging on the rail Come and ride away It's easier to stick to the old Surrounded by the night Surrounded by the night and you don't give in But you abuse my faith Lose it every time, but I don't know where You're on my side again So ride the heat wherever it goes I'll be the one to care You're all I've got, wait Don't wanna let the dark night cover my soul Well, you can see it through the darkness coming my way Well, we won't get lost inside it all again Oh, my mind No one sees me, I'm out here waiting They don't mind that I'm here, I hear Throw the bad away, and your mind against it I would keep you here, but I can't Oh, I'll talk to you when I make my way back I don't see it over there where I come from, yeah Lost and you're hurt again The easy way to cover my sin Don't want another dark time to think to myself We won't get lost inside it all, you're on my way Well, I can see it in the darkness combing my mind Well, we can hear the voices war inside Yeah, and you won't get lost inside it all You're on my way
A esta banda lo he escuchado recién en desde el 2016. Yo me acostumbrado escuchar buenas canciones de los 80's y 90's y considero que The War On Drugs es la mejor. Que maravilla.
+Eran Eshkol To me, it sounds like he is referring to the drug demon. Once an addict, always an addict, even clean and sober, we fight these demons that are still inside us all.
no dude thats not true every song is written by an artist and that artist has an intended meaning in the song, you can think it means something else all you want but the meanong is what the artist says it is not you lol
Actually, Pinkus, there could be some merit to Nada's theory. This song (along with the rest of the album) was written at a time in which Adam Granduciel was experiencing severe depression and isolation. It was also at this time that he wanted to become healthier so he stopped drinking alcohol, eating meat, etc; even though he never stopped smoking weed. "It's easier to stick to the earth." But the most important thing you have to remember is that even if the artist explains the meaning behind his tracks, the allure of music is the way in which each song resonates with the listener. It can mean whatever the listener wants it to mean. That's what art is. And even if Nada is incorrect in his interpretation, I'm sure Adam would be humbled to know that his music creates such a personal perspective from his fans. And I also don't think he would appreciate you calling someone "retarded" when discussing the meaning behind his music. But I suppose there isn't anything that I can say to sway you from acting like a tool so I suppose I'm wasting my time trying.
I love the melody, I love the song. But I really don't understand the meaning of the lyrics? Seems to me as if Adam wrote the first things which came to his mind...??

My favorite song at the moment and maybe for a while, hits the soul. Just discovered this band a few weeks ago.
I've cried to this song, both sad and happy tears, I've smiled to this song, laughed to it, thought to it, even listened during school. i have so many emotions tied into this song, and I'm so glad I ran into it.
I don't understand it

This song got me interested in The War on Drugs. Brilliant.' Surrounded by night and you do't grow old'
This song reminds me of my dog and I, riding, with the windows down, leaving everything behind.

This song is sooo addictive, this one and under pressure
I only recently discovered this song. So beautiful!

Lyrics:
Come and see
We're awake, this everything
On my way
Beat it down, to get to my soul.
Against my will
Anyone can tell it's you coming
Baby don't mind
Leave it on a lie, leave it your own way.
Come and ride away
It's easier to stick to the earth
Surrounded by the night
Surrounded by the night, and you don't grow old
But you abuse my faith
Losing every time, but I don't know where
You're on my side again
So ride the key wherever it goes
I'll be the one I can...whoo! :D
You're all I've got to wait
You're running in the dark, and I come to my soul
You can see it through the dark, it's coming my way
Well, we won't get lost inside a-gain, babe.
Am I right
No one sees me, when I'm out here waiting
They don't mind, they don't hear--I hear.
It's on the back way of my mind, against it
I would keep you here, but I can't
Oh, I've tried to see it on the bridge now, baby
I don't see it anywhere I go, babe, yeah.
Yeah, whoo!! :D
While I see you again
The easy way to come to my soul
Walking in the downtown, talk to my soul
They won't get lost inside it all
You're on my way
I can see it in the darkness, covering my mind
Well, we're here, don't get lost inside
And we won't get lost inside it all
You're on my way.
Note: Adam Granduciel slightly changes lyrics when performing live...it's very rarely the same lyrics twice.
Actually at 0:27 it's "where I witness everything, on my knees"
Come and see
Where I witness everything
On my knees
Beat it down to get to my soul
Against my will
Anyone can tell it's you coming
Baby don't mind
Leave it on the line, leave it hanging on the rail
Come and ride away
It's easier to stick to the old
Surrounded by the night
Surrounded by the night and you don't give in
But you abuse my faith
Lose it every time, but I don't know where
You're on my side again
So ride the heat wherever it goes
I'll be the one to care
You're all I've got, wait
Don't wanna let the dark night cover my soul
Well, you can see it through the darkness coming my way
Well, we won't get lost inside it all again
Oh, my mind
No one sees me, I'm out here waiting
They don't mind that I'm here, I hear
Throw the bad away, and your mind against it
I would keep you here, but I can't
Oh, I'll talk to you when I make my way back
I don't see it over there where I come from, yeah
Lost and you're hurt again
The easy way to cover my sin
Don't want another dark time to think to myself
We won't get lost inside it all, you're on my way
Well, I can see it in the darkness combing my mind
Well, we can hear the voices war inside
Yeah, and you won't get lost inside it all
You're on my way
The words bring a vision of The Maker talking to us in our language.
We are Their soul.🖖🙂
Thankyou for helping me understand the lyrics :)

This song is Badass no F'n doubt!
Wow this one Are so good
I dunno why, but this song just reminds me of Athos, in the muskteers, the bbc version ❤️
love this song!
someone can tell me what it talks about?
+Eran Eshkol To me, it sounds like he is referring to the drug demon. Once an addict, always an addict, even clean and sober, we fight these demons that are still inside us all.
i feel like it's a love song...a very odd love song.

Music is elastic, you can give it ur own interpretation
Thank U girl
you're welcome boy
I love the melody, I love the song. But I really don't understand the meaning of the lyrics? Seems to me as if Adam wrote the first things which came to his mind...??

I see the red eyes I see them everywhere I go- is the correct lyrics
Sonzera show 😎😎🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🤙🤙
