Black Keys, The - In Our Prime Lyrics






Pour me down the drain, I disappear,
Like every honest thing I used to hear.

Like every lover hovers in my mind,
We made our mark when we were in our prime.
The house had burned, but nothing there was mine,
We had it all when we were in our prime.

Every now and then, I see a face from way back when and I explode.
Friends no longer aid me, only bullshit serenade me like it's gold, how that we're told.
I'm praying for some laughter, maybe joy for ever after till I die.
I'm hungry for a change, I got my fill of other's pain, I realized,
Opened my eyes.

Like every lover hovers in my mind,
We made our mark when we were in our prime.
The house had burned, but nothing there was mine,
We had it all when we were in our prime.

Like every lover hovers in my mind,
We made our mark when we were in our prime.
The house had burned, but nothing there was mine,
We had it all when we were in our prime.

  6. I.... N....

    Inspiracion de Mr Kingdom Elo?

  7. T.... B....

    Definitely in their prime here!

  8. E.... B....

    Hep aynı şeyi hatırlatır mı bir parça? Her seferinde dostlarımla eski evin balkonunda yağmurlu bir kasım akşamı oturmuş elimizde biralar ve sigaralarla dinliyorum bu şarkıyı sanki, etkileyici..

  9. L.... B....

    2:08
    Everyone is talking about how great the guitar solo is when they are missing out on an equally good keyboard solo!!!!!

  10. J.... ....

    Honestly, I don't like the solo (Don't crucify me).

  11. I.... a....

    you are the only one, it still touches the spot

  12. C.... S....

    This song would be perfect for The Umbrella Academy

  13. m.... b....

    I hear a Beatles influence.

  14. L.... G....

    If this was realised in the late 60s or 70s it would've been quite a hit

  15. w.... ....

    love this tune to bits thank you black keys

  16. J.... C....

    666k views and my dad just walked in on my smoking a joint in the garage.

  17. A.... S....

    As deep as the ocean wide and still, I cry. Lost affection pushed to the side.

  18. R.... O....

    got a hint of the beatles & the older folks gilbert o'sullivan

  19. S.... H....

    I love this album . This song has a sadness to it

  20. T.... B....

    So Good!

    "The house it burned, but nothing there was mine" WOW

    M.... F....

  22. R.... D....

    This song really touches the heart

  23. P.... ....

    Pour me down the drain, I disappear
    Like every honest thing I used to hear

    [Chorus]
    Like every lover hovers in my mind
    We made our mark when we were in our prime
    The house it burned, but nothing there was mine
    We had it all when we were in our prime

    [Verse 2]
    Every now and then I see your face from way back when and I explode
    Friends no longer egg me on, they bullshit serenade me like it's gold, how then we're told
    I'm praying for some laughter, maybe joy for ever after till I die
    I'm hungry for a change, I got my fill of other's pain, I realized
    Opened my eyes

    [Chorus x2]
    Like every lover hovers in my mind
    We made our mark when we were in our prime
    The house it burned, but nothing there was mine
    We had it all when we were in our prime.

    BEST SOLO.

  24. S.... H....

    M.... C....

    Matías Nicolás Cristini lol, I knew it sounded familiar

  37. n.... E....

    does anyone know the piano?

  38. T.... L....

    This is a comin home from a hard days work on a rainy day kind of song. Where did all the other music this good go?

  39. J.... T....

    The guitar and drum solo at the end is one of the best solos I've ever heard in my life its unbelievable.one of the best guitarists and drummers in the world today combined.

  40. T.... H....

    Listen to the guitar solo at the end of Natalie Merchant's "I may know the word" from Tiger Lily

  41. M.... C....

    the beginning sounds a lot like "Gettin' It" by Too $hort

  42. M.... S....

    Pour me down the drain, I disappear

  43. L.... S....

    Stupid girl.

  44. V.... M....

    Dan something is missing! No video why???

  45. s.... c....

    I live for the guitar solo at the end.

  46. G.... L....

    I'm only missing I think two of their albums. Them and Kaleo are my favorite right now. Lately I've been jamming 50 dollar dynast as well. Check em out.

    G.... L....

    on down the road, 50 dollar dynasty. That one specifically.

  47. L.... R....

    for me it s the best song of the album there is all in this track: good melody, changement of tempo and finally a realy good solo

    L.... R....

    Leo Ralston I used to listen to this song every morning in traffic :)

  48. D.... M....

    the whole song should be like the first part of the song

    D.... M....

    it ends like it begins

    D.... M....

    +pjpunker that's what makes black keys dope

    D.... M....

    +TheEnlightenOne911 I never said it didn't I'm obsessed with this song no argument here

    D.... M....

    +pjpunker no argument just implying the black keys are dope haha

    D.... M....

    +TheEnlightenOne911 yup here here

  49. A.... ....

    oh fuck, this song its so great

  50. i.... ....

    3:05 One of the best guitar solos ever created. You can hear the emotion pour from the strings. This album is so damn good!

  51. c.... ....

    Any reason why some of Turn Blue isn't on youtube?

  52. d.... d....

    Increible, no hay palabras

  53. 0.... ....

    I honestly think Turn Blue is the best rock album of the 2010's

    0.... ....

    Me too !!!

    0.... ....

    Nickelback new album is pretty good tho... haha jk

    0.... ....

    ELIHU YHWH hello from 2017 look up currents by tame impala

    0.... ....

    Currents got nothing on Lonerism though.

    0.... ....

    It’s great, but I am kind of an El Camino guy

  54. R.... ....

    The Turn Blue album, a masterpiece, been listening to it on repeat for weeks !!!
    PS : This is one of the best songs I ever heard !!!!

  55. s.... r....

    I'm from Akron we live for our bands from Akron OHIO

  56. D.... ....

    if only youtube hadnt blocked In Time

    D.... ....

    +Dogma427 That's why I had to pirate music for the first time ;(

  57. T.... J....

    check out my cover of "Lonely Boy"!

    I used a looping pedal for some intro soloing.

    https://youtu.be/K15ZqM4mPZ8

  58. B.... T....

    Amazing

  59. l.... m....

    John Lennon

  60. C.... M....

    Why can i not find In Time anywhere!?!?!?

    C.... M....

    +Caryn Cray weird right

  61. J.... R....

    Does anyone know how to play the first piano bit?

  62. J.... G....

    Wow i just pooed my pants cause this song is that good💩

  63. a.... ....

    I feel like with this song, they're conceding that they used to be better.

    a.... ....

    I take it more as time changes people and it's the nostalgia trip of how good everything used to be. Being younger, having closer relationships, etc.

  64. M.... H....

    The guitar solo is righteous. This whole album brought back true psychedelia.

    M.... H....

    Yea, best one for me.

    M.... H....

    Megan Holovnia This is my favorite track off of my favorite album of theirs. This project stands out from everything. Trading their unrefined lo fidelity sound and dirty, distorted guitars for a more luscious and sonically layered piece of psychedelic magic.

  65. A.... ....

    this touched the very core of my soul. amazing song.

    A.... ....

    +Dan M. Wow

    A.... ....

    @Janneth Torres Without the red eyes and the joint XD

    A.... ....

    its better with a joint

    A.... ....

    everything is better with a joint :p

    A.... ....

    true mate
    ...

  66. a.... d....

    Beatles style melody :) !

    a.... d....

    +alexandre dupan across the universe words are flowing out like endless rain into

    a.... d....

    100% good spot. Screams Beatles psychedelia phase. And the last minute is my favourite part of the entire album, soul shaking guitar.

  67. R.... E....

    Gran canción sin duda

  68. m.... c....

    el mejor tema del disco, alfín alguien atino a subirlo!

  69. t.... ....

    The guitar work resembles Eddie Hazel Funkadelic in my mind (smooth hammering and wah + reverb).

    t.... ....

    Yeeeaaaahhh!!!

    t.... ....

    truyee1 I'm getting Bootsy Collins vibes. Namely the song "Rather be with You"

  70. p.... ....

    Hello????? Beatles 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

    p.... ....

    when we was fab
