My Head & The Glass Lyrics


Bastille My Head & The Glass

[Intro]
Oh-oh, oh, ain't it funny how these nights go?

[Verse 1]
I was walkin' home that night through the park they warned us not to
And in drunk moonlight, swaying in the midnight breeze
So young and dumb and free, just a kid alone and drinkin'
Hey, why would I see the violence ahead of me?

[Pre-Chorus]
Did we treat that town like a drunk playground?
Little me, oh, so naive
Met some local kids who I made friends with
Till they knocked me out
[Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh, ain't it funny how these nights go?
Oh-oh, oh, and I've only got the bruise to show
Since you knocked me 'round the head, knocked me 'round the head
Shoulda knocked some sense right into me
Oh-oh, oh, ain't it funny how these nights go?

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, 'cause they laid me out like a joke

[Verse 2]
Bleedin' on the grass
I dialled my stoned friends to help me
While the 'cartoon stars'
We're spiralling around my head

[Pre-Chorus]
Did we treat that town like a drunk playground?
Little me, oh, so naive
Us entitled kids get away with shit
Lesson learned, sit down

[Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh, ain't it funny how these nights go?
Oh-oh, oh, and I've only got the bruise to show
Since you knocked me 'round the head, knocked me 'round the head
Shoulda knocked some sense right into me
Oh-oh, oh, ain't it funny how these nights go?
[Bridge]
'Cause you laid me out
You laid me out here like a fool
Oh, you laid me out
You laid me out here like a fool
Oh-oh, oh, ain't it funny how these nights go?
Oh-oh, oh, and I've only got the bruise to show
Since you knocked me 'round the head, knocked me 'round the head
Shoulda knocked some sense right into me

[Outro]
Oh-oh, oh-oh, these nights, these nights, these nights go on
Oh-oh, oh-oh, these nights, these nights, these nights go on
Oh-oh, oh-oh, these nights, these nights, these nights go on
Oh-oh, oh-oh, these nights, these nights, these nights go on
Oh-oh, oh-oh, these nights, these nights, these nights go on
Oh-oh, oh-oh, these nights, these nights, these nights go on
Oh-oh, oh-oh, these nights, these nights, these nights go on
Oh-oh, oh-oh, these nights, these nights, these nights go on
Oh-oh, oh-oh
