Boston Manor - Laika Lyrics
They say the truth's your best defence
I'm bleeding just to pay the rent
And broken dreams mean nothing
When you need something
Just to get you through the year
And now we're moving out
So pack your clothes, your books, your doubt
And bring the piece of paper
That I gave you, back when you were all alone
Letters sent home
With no return address
I've got a bag full of old clothes
I've got a bag full of stress
You so little to believe in
Cause we had a house with a perfect door
And a front room with the right decor
And I came and wrecked it all
Yes I came and wrecked it all like I always do
Cause I didn't think
And I poured your life down the kitchen sink
With the dregs of yesterday
And now I'm going to be late
I'm sorry
I'm so sorry that I'm leaving
You so little to believe in
Just tell me, that you're free, of your woes and of me
There's weather more reliable than me
I'm calling base command
As the last bit of oxygen runs out but
They're down there softly sleeping
The sun sets over the Pacific region
I'm sitting here hanging in the balance
Just barely in the atmosphere
I'm sitting here hanging in the balance
Just barely in the atmosphere
I'm so sorry that I'm leaving
You so little to believe in
Just tell me, that you're free, of your woes and of me
There's weather more reliable than me
As lonely as Laika
Up there all alone
You miss the atmosphere
The stars are now your home

Boston Manor Laika Comments
this is Hella Gay!
rlly happy that even tho music technology is advancing so much they stick to pure musical instruments and pure vocals
Strong Blink182 vibes, amazing Refrain.
3:01 those lyrics hit me hard
These lads really do make nothing but awesome songs.
this shit always makes me cry gd
Does anyone know the name of the boy in this video?
Is this the same band that released the Driftwood EP? Singers voice isnt as deep
These lyrics tho
so grateful to have heard this, im in love
Can someone explain the music video to me please?
I can't seem to piece it together.
pretty sure Guardin ripped of the opening of this song in his song, "useless"
Sampled*
Just so everyone knows, this song is not directly about Laika, the space dog. The band said this themselves during an acoustic performance of the song :)
Heard these guys on a concert in brussels and i was so surprised how good they were glad they were on tour with good charlotte or i would never find out of them keep going guys u rock !
The song rocks dude.
This song is just so fucking good I love it
Best song i have listened to in a while
This makes me wanna puke now that I know what it’s about
Literally the most underrated band out there. This song is perfect and has the perfect video to it. I cant explain it. Such a good vibe.
Holy shit, this band is going to get huge! I’m so happy I found you guys, all my music was getting so bland
That change at 2:20 when everything gets slower is one of my favorite parts of any song. It’s so catchy and soothing. The base command line also reminds me of David Bowie’s Space Oddity. Love this song
This song has been stuck in my head for quite some time and I could never remember who it was by, until now
Amazing voice!!!💗💗💗💗💗
i decided to look up my name:Laika,and this came up
There's weather more reliable than me
Amazing song
R.I.P. Laika, 60 years have passed. You didn't deserve it. I cry when I hear about her. She was all alone 😢
REST IN PEACE LAIKA; MY FAVORITE SOVIET SPACE DOG WHO KISSED THE STARS FOR US ALL
A taste of "Talking Back Sunday," influence in there. :)
Too many guitars
i would disagree
they fucking killed it at warped
This video reminds me of "Gum" by Moose Blood.
come to brazil!
Idk how BM got into one of my favorite playlists and even tho I liked their music I would skip them to listen the same as everyday. One day I gave them the chance and then the name of this song caught my attention, now it’s one of my favorite songs because it gives me feelings for hundreds of things at the same time, makes me incredibly emotional and I appreciate that. Thought that they were playing on VWT this year but sadly they aren’t, now I’m sad, k bye.
I thought that this song was supposed to mean “at a time” because in another language it means that (not sure which one), but this is so much more sad
I don´t know how many times I've heard this song last 2 months. Great fucking album :)))
i love you
Muito foda mesmo LAIKEI
This song doesn’t have a million hits yet? This is like an anthem
Huecos kls
i feel joyce when i listen to this manor
Btw, Laika was a dog, owned by the Soviet Space Program, she was one of the first animals in space, and the first to orbit Earth. Laika died on November Third, 1957, in Low Earth Orbit.
Like any of you really wanted to know..
Still listening to this song in 2018. Ha ha ha this comment is so clever no one has ever said that before
This may be a dumb question, but are the lyrics pertaining to Laika, the space dog?
The Armadillo yeh
the heart wrenching meaning of the video tho
You guys killed it in Cardiff!!! :D Come back soon!
hearing this live when they performed for Moose Blood was the greatest thing ever and i was so happy to hear it live oml.
When you nut but she keep suckin @ 1:42
Got this shit on repeat here at work. Y’all are being jammed in the Rio Grande Valley.
60 years ago today... Rest in peace, Laika
Yanny Tøp cuz makes sense. oh wait that doesnt matter to you. hence your iq
whats there tumblr boss
Cortana blue
Aaron Quasius haha epic galaxy brain red pilled gamer
Someone please tell me if this video was loosely based off sleepwalking from bring me the horizon
Saw these guys at the camel in rva a week ago it was amazing first time I had even heard of them
Who's going to Kerrang Tour?
I just found gold
The Taking Back Sunday vibes are real. Love this song so much.
This sounds like the good (insert genre name) music of the early 2000's. I like it. Thanks for the good sounds.
Fuuuuuuck me up homie damn
Underrated band
love this!!!!
AS LONELY AS LAIKA. UP THERE ALL ALONE.
YOU MISS THE ATMOSPHERE.
THE STARS ARE NOW YOUR HOME❤😭
This is nice :)
What does anyone think this song is about?
Met the whole band at Warped Tour in Chicago! All super nice and they put on an insane show.
So....does anyone understand the video? I'm having trouble getting the message.
Peanutbutter1zation if you ever find out let me know because I'd love to know too
It refers to the dog that was sent into space, Laika. They never intended for her return so she died in space.
@Juan Cano It's not about Laika contrary to popular belief lmaoo
@Veronica : yeah, after about a year I realized in a acoustic video they did of this song was not about the dog
Had no idea you guys are from Blackpool
el niño del vídeo se parece a wismichu, puto calvo.
This song is beautiful, "as lonely as laika" makes me cry every time
2:50 someone's been listening to dear father by sum 41
They are so good live!
Be nothing is an absolute gem in pop punk. \m/
BAYSIDE meets THE STORY SO FAR...Perfect ;)
I see what you did there with Sum 41s Dear Father😏
Seen them live today and they were great, amazing stage presence and attitude
Would love to see you guys in Australia! 🇦🇺🤞
play with acres!!
Wow, this band is very Laikable ;)
can feel moose blood vibe .
check out the song "laika" by wil wagner. saddest song ever.
Ugh I love this song and this band so much
Oh god this does sound like I'd find it on a burnout game.
ΚΑΙ ΕΙΝΑΙ ΚΑΤΙ ΛΑΙΚΑ ΜΕ ΚΑΤΙ ΣΤΙΧΟΥΣ
I hitch hiked through Rhode Island and ended up with a T-shirt of this band. truly amazing <3
I'm Vegan
saw them recently in Denver and they killed it.
SO EXCITED TO SEE THEM ON WARPEDD
these guys are underrated.
OKAY WHY HAVE I NEVER HEARD OF THESE GUYS BEFORE I'M CRYING WHAT IS THIS BEAUTY
THEY'RE SO UNDERRATED I LOVE THESE GUYS
So beautiful <3
This song kinda gives me blink 182 vibes.
Got to see them live last night for the first time and holy crap they are so good!
Holy shit. This band reminds me so much of trophy eyes
but better (my opinion)
Way better
Waaaay bettaa
This is one of the best songs I've ever heard in my whole life.
Normally not a fan of exaggerations, but I 100% agree with you.
I agree
how does this have 29 dislikes
