Rabbit Heart (Raise It Up)

Rabbit Heart (Raise It Up) by Florence + The Machine

The looking glass, so shiny and new, how quickly the glamour fades. I start spinning, slipping out of time, was that the wrong pill to take? You made a deal, and now it seems you have to offer up, but will it ever be enough? It’s not enough.

Here I am, a rabbit hearted girl, frozen in the headlights. It seems I made the final sacrifice.

We raise it up, this offering. We raise it up.

This is a gift, it comes with a price. Who is the lamb and who is the knife? Midas is king and he holds me so tight, and turns me to gold in the sunlight.

I look around, but I can’t find you. If only I could see your face. I start rushing towards the skyline. I wish that I could just be brave.

I must become a lion hearted girl, ready for a fight, before I make the final sacrifice.

We raise it up, this offering. We raise it up.

This is a gift, it comes with a price. Who is the lamb and who is the knife? Midas is king and he holds me so tight, and turns me to gold in the sunlight.

Raise it up, raise it up.

In the spring I shed my skin and it blows away with the changing winds. The waters turn from blue to red as towards the sky I offer it.

This is a gift, it comes with a price. Who is the lamb and who is the knife? Midas is king and he holds me so tight, and turns me to gold in the sunlight.

This is a gift.
