[Intro]
That original lifeline
Original lifeline
That original lifeline
[Verse 1]
Hey, look up
Don't make a shadow of yourself
Always shutting out the light
Caught in your own creation
Look up, look up
It tore you open
And oh, how much?
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause there's a hole where your heart lies
And I can see it with my third eye
And though my touch, it magnifies
You pull away, you don't know why
[Chorus]
That original lifeline
Original lifeline
That original lifeline
[Verse 2]
Hey, look up
You don't have to be a ghost
Here amongst the living
You are flesh and blood
And you deserve to be loved
And you deserve what you are given
And oh, how much?
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause there's a hole where your heart lies
And I can see it with my third eye
And though my touch, it magnifies
You pull away, you don't know why
[Chorus]
That original lifeline
Original lifeline
That original lifeline
Original lifeline
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause there's a hole where your heart lies
And I can see it with my third eye
And though my touch, it magnifies
You pull away, you don't know why
[Chorus]
That original lifeline
Original lifeline
That original lifeline
That original lifeline
[Bridge 1]
'Cause your pain is a tribute
The only thing you let hold you
Wear it now like a mantle
Always there to remind you
But your pain is a tribute
The only thing you let hold you
Wear it now like a mantle
Always there to remind you
[Refrain]
I'm the same, I'm the same
I'm trying to change
I am the same, I'm the same
I'm trying to change
I am the same, I'm the same
I'm trying to change
I am the same, I'm the same
I'm trying to change
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause there's a hole where your heart lies
And I can see it with my third eye
And though my touch, it magnifies
You pull away, you don't know why
[Chorus]
(I'm the same, I'm the same)
(I'm trying to change)
That original lifeline
(I am the same, I'm the same)
(I'm trying to change)
Original lifeline
(I am the same, I'm the same)
(I'm trying to change)
That original lifeline
(I am the same, I'm the same)
(I'm trying to change)
Original lifeline
(I'm the same, I'm the same)
(I'm trying to change)
That original lifeline
(I am the same, I'm the same)
(I'm trying to change)
Original lifeline
(I am the same, I'm the same)
(I'm trying to change)
That original lifeline
(I am the same, I'm the same)
(I'm trying to change)
That original lifeline
Third Eye was written by Florence Welch.
Third Eye was produced by Markus Dravs.
Florence + the Machine released Third Eye on Fri May 29 2015.
Welch has said to NME:
When you reach a level of fame and attention, it can make you feel quite unworthy. To be compelled, to need that catharsis and exorcism, there’s obviously going to be an underlying dissatisfaction… it was trying to learn to be just happier in my own skin.
