The Killers - Be Still lyrics

rate me

Be still and go on to bed,

Nobody knows what lies ahead,

And life is short, to say the least,

Were in the belly of the beast.

Be still,

Wild and young,

Long may your innocence reign,

Like shells on the shore,

And may your limits be unknown,

May your efforts be your own,

If you ever feel you cant take it anymore.

Dont break character,

Youve got a lot of heart,

Is this real or just a dream?

Rise up like the sun,

Labor till the work is done.

Be still,

One day youll leave,

Fearlessness on your sleeves,

When you come back,

Tell me what did you see?

(What did you see?)

Was there something out there for me?

Be still,

Close your eyes,

Soon enough youll be on your own,

Steady and straight,

And if they drag you through the mud,

It doesnt change whats in your blood,

(Over rock and chain, over sunset plain,)

When they knock you down,

Dont break character,

Youve got a lot of heart,

Is this real or just a dream?

Be still,

Be still,

Be still,

Be still.

Over rock and chain, over sunset plain,

Over trap and snare,

When youre in too deep,

In your wildness dream,

In your made up schemes,

When they knock you down,

When they knock you down.

Dont break character,

Youve got a so much heart,

Is this real or just a dream?

Ohh,

Rise up like the sun and labor till the work is done,

Rise up like the sun and labor till the work is,

Rise up like the sun and labor till the work is done.
