Not exactly a chart topper but I couldn't care less. Not being a popular song makes it even tastier but still, I want all my five readers to stumble upon it. Just like I did last year, when I heard it in the Palm Pixi commercial.
Sleepyhead was Passion Pit's first single, from their first EP (Chunk of change), from their first and only full length studio album, Manners.
It's electronica-dance-wonky pop. Lady Gaga-ish. It's likeable and cathy. Hope you'll love it as much as I do.
Oh and Happy Mother's Day and Women's Day. Love ya.
Basically this song has been stuck into my head the entire day. Here's the song and lyrics so you can sing along! ;D
When I came down the dawn poured into me I shook em up, the walls came crumbling my fists kept trembling with these salty wounds my stolen gold inside the emperors tomb
Now painting rainbows on my ugly face I built this cardboard neighborhoods disgrace but I ascend and serve my feverish need within the confines of such chemistry
It's the way I see everything I need it's no way to be
Let this be our little secret no one needs to know were feeling higher and higher and higher higher and higher and higher
But I feel alive and I feel it in me up and up I keep on climbing higher and higher and higher higher and higher and higher
My face blew up at such a casual sight the smattered colours of ecstatic fright the rush above me to oblivion outlining wet sidewalks in halogen
Oh have you ever felt so goddamn strong how come it takes some people so damn long he tried to squeeze the lemon juice to rain the citrus drawing out the scene in stains
Watch the basin drain as your life lines wane and you cant explain as your friends complain
You've caused all this pain and you proudly shame your whole families name
Let this be our little secret no one needs to know were feeling higher and higher and higher higher and higher and higher
But I feel alive and I feel it in me up and up I keep on climbing higher and higher and higher higher and higher and higher
Mother I can tell what you've been thinking staring at the stars on your ceiling thinking once there was a power that you were wielding and now I've hit the mark stabbing at the dark and I cannot help but ignore the people staring at my scars
Let this be our little secret no-one needs to know we're feeling higher and higher and higher higher and higher and higher
But I feel alive and feel it in me
up and up I keep on climbing higher and higher and higher higher and higher and higher
Let this be our little secret no one needs to know were feeling higher and higher and higher higher and higher and higher
But I feel alive and I feel it in me up and up I keep on climbing higher and higher and higher higher and higher and higher
