power

Singer: bastille

aim

throw your best shot right at me

cause pain

i can take it easily

did you really think i'd fall to my knees

just to pray for some sweet simplicity?

cause woah

you're squeezing my heart

too hard in your bare hands

they hold too tight

and woah the air is on fire

this room feels electric

caught here in your sights

power

power

i will never understand the power you were holding over me

power

power

oh you had it too long

yes you had it too long

pain

just synapses firing in our brain

so when you cut me

cut me deep

hurt the ones you love the most easily

cause in time we show our achilles's heels

and woah

you're squeezing my heart

too hard in your cold bare hands

they hold too tight

and woah the air is on fire

this room feels electric

caught here in your sights

power

power

i will never understand the power you were holding over me

power

power

oh you had it too long

yes you had it too long

if you're gonna hit me

hit me harder

cause you better knock me out the first time

and if you're gonna do this rip the plaster

if you're gonna hit me

hit me harder than this

power

power

blows my mind to think i ever let you hold it over me

power

power

i will never understand the way i let you hold it over me

power

power

well you had it too long

yes you had it too long

power

oh

oh

power

oh

oh

oh

oh

oh

oh

oh

power

power

i let you have it too long

yes you had it too long
