The Dodos No Color Lyrics
1.Black Night

black night, blackness
when i wanted you, how i haunted you, all to myself
one gift, one slip
where you hiding at, who you're aiming at, won't kiss and tell

control yourself, i dont want it to, i dont need it to, can
someone else?
counting until, when your heading to, cause your attitude, turn
on itself

kind heart, kindness
where you going to, are you going through, heaven or hell?
won't slip, won't miss
when i'm onto you, send it over to, your faith in will

control yourself, i dont want it to, i dont need it to, contain
itself
counting until, it was never that, i was aiming at, being
someone else

HA! (8x)

you want it all, you want to walk, you want to walk, right
through it!
you had it all, you had it all, you had it all, you threw it!
you want it all, you want to walk, you want to walk, right
through it!
you had it all, you had it all, you had it all, you threw it!

black night, blackness
when i wanted you, how i haunted you, all to myself
one kiss, one slip
where you going to, are you going through, heaven or hell?

control yourself, i dont want it to, i dont need it to, can
someone else
counting until, when you need it to, cause your attitude, turn
on itself

you want it all, you want to walk, you want to walk, right
through it!
you had it all, you had it all, you had it all, you threw it!
you want it all, you want to walk, you want to walk, right
through it!
you had it all, you had it all, you had it all, you threw it!


2.Going Under

this takes us by surprise im sure
are you the curse? are you the cure?
sometimes you know you ask too much
been getting good at giving up

this ship is going under, going under, going under

cast off, but hit the ocean floor
misguided thread, he'll want your pores
i see you there upon a bluff
you disappear a tiny dot

this ship is going under, going under, going under

misplace my heart, misplace my hope
im here without it
contained at home to all the brave
and bold who found it

to know you still, i hold you in, i hope you know, i only begin
i hope you will, doing it once, i know you will, i've only begun

give all my things, to all my enemy's are grounded
i make amends, i gave it up, i hope you found it
i see you still, i hold you in, i hope you know, i only begin
to all of them, doing it once, i hope you know, i've only begun

oh

to all the gold, my hands are up, i hide my plunder
goodbye to everyone i know, were going under
i see you still, i hold you in, i hope you know, i only begin
to all of them, doing it once, i hope you know, i've only begun

oh


3.Good

in my head, it's all been laughter;
in my head, it's all been laughter;
in my head, it's all been laughter!

could you be certain?
what you've been searching?
won't be late

what you've been hoping
could leave you broken
don't be late

cause even when your cries stop
they belong to break in two
cause even when your cries stop

in my head, it's all i'm after;
in my head, it's all i'm after;
in my head, it's all i'm after!

could you be certain?
what you've been searching?
won't be late

what you've been hoping
could leave you broken
don't be late

cause even when your cries stop
they belong to break in two
cause even when your cries stop

wouldn't cut you off or even if i could
confiscate your love or leave it when i should
you got a big heart maybe start thinking return
is it better to be on or be good?

couldn't cast you off or nobody's that good
confiscate your love or leave it when i should
you got a big heart maybe start thinking return
is it better to be on or be good?


4.Sleep

recall, a means to conjure you up
your welcome awhile now
begone, this one too proud to love
too careful to send you off

i cannot sleep
i cannot think
i cannot dream

this kid, grotesques the paintings proof
that someones created
he knows, not what he thinks to lose
too stable to lend you off

i cannot sleep
i cannot think
i cannot dream

tend to gatherers and together


5.Don't Try And Hide It

what were you thinking writing on the roof top
waiting for something or maybe someone
and you were laughing circling the road block
you put in front of, to keep your heart locked

don't try and hide it, it's all your left with
you will need more than gaining affection
don't try and fight it, what you've been offering
doesn't even match up with what you're born with

if this is the last of your kind, well don't be blind
and leave it to others

go memorize all of your locations
you are nowhere, you are nothing vacant
don't give your eyes to other's vocations
they are there to keep you in your station

don't try and hide it, don't try and fight it
don't try and hide it, don't try to hide it fight it

and what the hell were you putting your faith in?
something you could not, someone you look too
and now you watch it, always floating over
what you would long for, what you were born to

don't memorize all of your locations
you are nowhere, you are nothing vacant
don't give your eyes to other's vocations
they will only keep you in your station

don't try and hide it, don't try and fight it
don't try and hide it, don't try to hide it fight it


6.When Will You Go

who knew that you would follow me
i think of you as highly guarded
its easy when you call to me
i go to where im told

i wanted them to can't relate
two things back and forth
and disintegrate
so why do you ask me

when will you go? nothing's permanent, i thought you know
why do you ask me
when will you go? nothing's permanent, i thought you know

i'll take you where you hold your fears
i'll show you what you know, but can't see
i keep you where i know you'll be
i'll show you what it means to be

discarded and put to the side
like things back and forth
and can't integrate
so why do you ask me

when will you go? nothing's permanent, i thought you know
why do you ask me
when will you go? nothing's permanent, i thought you know

is this your last call to me?
i hope it is


7.Hunting Season

I know you and I can't believe you;
When you say you give, when given to.
I called you in, I know you won't be
Offering your care and making me;
I need you and you know I'm only
Cautioned to the wind when it's blowing.
I called you in, I know you won't be
Offering your care get me out of here soon

I'll be heading out, hunting season here soon,
You go be a girl, I'll go searching for food,
You take care of him, I'll take care of;
You take care of him, I'll take care of..

How I'm suppose to know that?
How I'm supposed to know?
How I'm suppose to know that?
How I'm supposed to know?
How I'm suppose to know that?
How I'm supposed to know that you need me?
How I'm suppose to know that?
How I'm supposed to know?

I know you did your talking with me
As a trophy head, it's so easy.
I know you when, I let you get me,
Chase me to my death while I'm wasting.
I called you in, I know you won't be
Listening to the wind; when I'm leaving.
I give to you, I don't know what
It's going to take me to get you out of my sight

This is what I've been waiting for the red light
You go be a girl I'll be leaving tonight
You take care of him, I take care of;
You take care of him, I take care of..

You know you did, you held on for too long
You know you did, you held on for too long
You know you did, you held on for too long
You know you did, you held on for too long


8.Companions

Insipid wait and so we play
Companions
No story games, could you behave?
Companions

Oh

I hold you in, you're holding out

If I can wait, could you be mine?
Companions
Are we the same? could we behave?
As companions

Oh

You hold me in, I'm holding out


9.Don't Stop

This cursed wall between us
You left me on so needless
The curtains cast, it's seamless
Will you be stopped or pass right through it

And you long to, keep it off you
Dancing often, and towards you
Till you've gone to, bleeding soften
Ones that got you, and so often

I see you off to end this
Were changing Gods' directions
Or kill before be helpless
Love carries on to pass right through it

And you long to, keep it off you
Dancing often, and towards you
Till you've gone to, bleeding soften
Ones that got you, and so often
Don't stop

Don't let your boss catch you, don't stop

Who cares, it's gone, you know
It only happen once
But still, repair, what's lost
Not only happy ones

Oh
