Dragonette - Liar Lyrics






Don’t stand too close to me
If you’re left alone with me, uh oh
And leave that door open
Get someone to keep us company

‘Cause I’ve been making up a list of things I’d do to you
As we both dance on either side of the room
But it’s too late I’d never say it, anyway I’m taken
And we’re both leaving with whom we came

Somewhere you’re sleeping it off, but I’m wide awake
Chasing a runaway thought
So come on, say it

You can feel it too, don’t hide you liar
Some kind of thunder inside
Don’t speak, don’t breath, don’t touch the fire
It’s gonna burn us alive

I know you can feel it too, I saw you liar
Setting off dynamite
One look, one touch, we won’t survive it
It’s gonna burn us alive

Did I come to close to this
I rubbed myself against it, oh no
I can’t touch it but I feel it
Can’t use it but I need it, oh

Oh no, you don’t fool me but I can keep a secret
I can read it like you wrote it all down
I’m not looking for your love, but we would do it well
And that’s the bit I can’t stop thinking about

Somewhere you’re sleeping it off , but I’m wide awake
Chasing a runaway thought
Just try proving me wrong, but I’ll find a way
To make you confess to it all

I know you can feel it too, don’t hide you liar
Some kind of thunder inside
Don’t speak, don’t breath, don’t touch the fire
It’s gonna burn us alive

I know you can feel it too, I saw you liar
Setting off dynamite
One look, one touch, we won’t survive it
It’s gonna burn us alive

I want to wrestle with a savage creature
That kind of wild thing could jump up and eat you
Some covet ‘cause it’s human nature
But I’m coming to the call of danger
Some love has got a built-in heater
Some heat has got to catch on fire
Put it out while you still can
You know you play with fire
You’re gonna get burned

I know you can feel it too, don’t hide you liar
Some kind of thunder inside
Don’t speak, don’t breath, don’t touch the fire
It’s gonna burn us alive

I know you can feel it too, don’t hide you liar
Some kind of thunder inside
Don’t speak, don’t breath, don’t touch the fire
It’s gonna burn us alive

I know you can feel it too, I saw you liar
Setting off dynamite
One look, one touch, we won’t survive it
It’s gonna burn us alive

  8. G.... ....

    ya sweeping generalizations piss me off too, but you shouldnt mention nickleback as a musician that is not bad. because they are.p

  9. t.... ....

    i would ask for a remix but this song is perfect

  10. M.... J....

    how the fuck did you misspell the abbreviation of et cetera

  11. K.... ....

    I just simply <3 this chick.

  12. M.... ....

    I'm chasing a runaway thought

  13. I.... I....

    Fair enough, I love Dragonette and grew up loving Alanis!

  14. B.... J....

    @hyrulphicsound
    what are you talking about avril lavigne isn't a bad singer just because she changed her genere of music doesn't make her a bad singer her let go and under my skin were her best albums and most singers change their genere of music and don't get me started justin bieber isn't a good singer his songs are just meant to be covered by other singers and dragonette is amazing

  15. 1.... ....

    He is still on rotation 24/7 here... Who cares where he's from.

  16. C.... ....

    this is seriously an addicting song lol

  17. M.... ....

    you guys seem to like him more. you can keep him.

  18. B.... S....

    They're probably talking about radio airplay.

  19. s.... ....

    DRAGONETTE. TEGAN AND SARA. DEATH FROM ABOVE 1979. CRYSTAL CASTLES. METRIC/EMILY HAINES. THE NOVAKS. DJ A-TRAK. MELISSA AUF DER MAUR. DEBORAH COX.CHOCLAIR. K-OS.THE CONSTANTINES. PEACHES. THE DEARS. THUNDERHEIST. MSTRKRFT. WEAKERTHANS. GRIMES. ARCADE FIRE. STARS. BROKEN SOCIAL SCENE. TIGA. HOT HOT HEAT. LEONARD COHEN. DEADMAU5. Could keep going but I'd rather listen to music....

  20. R.... ....

    America is stuck with Americans.

  21. s.... ....

    How 'bout we all just enjoy the track instead of trash-talking nationalism? It's all about the MUSIC people.

  22. L.... R....

    Yeah... Sweeping generalizations are always good to make.

    Remember, Canadians also brought us Nickelback. You'd think the shame would keep you off your horse.

  23. L.... R....

    Feel free to reclaim him.

  24. T.... D....

    refused is from sweden. "All of the most unique and creative bands..." doesn't cut it, that was an ignorant Canadian thing to say.

  25. J.... R....

    Canada, Australia, Sweden, England, and America all consistently put out the best of the best.

  26. y.... ....

    Justin Bieber is Canadian, not American.

  27. b.... ....

    I would say Seattle alone has given more kick ass tunes than Canada has! Don't even bother coming up with a lame response like.. "THAT"S JUST YOUR OPINION"

  28. b.... ....

    OH GAWD! you must be kidding? Did you just watch another I AM CANADIAN beer commercial after a garbage CFL football game? you seriously think those lil pissants compare to MEtallica, Megadeth, Avenged Sevenfold, Slipknot (1category). classics such as CCR, the Doors, Fleetwood Mac!
    Jack White has more talent in the pubes of his left testicle than all those lil CAN CON quota radio artists you just named.
    Nickelback, Avril, Beiber, Hedley.
    I'm a proud Canadian myself but find no reason to boast

  29. y.... ....

    Did you just misspell etc?

  30. m.... ....

    not sure whts so creative or unique about this..sounds pretty generic to me.

  31. T.... C....

    He was chill before he went there haha. Stop bashing other artists. Your entire comment is stupid and makes you look 12.

  32. M.... D....

    love this still

  33. T.... C....

    Hooooow did you not mention LIGHTS

  34. t.... ....

    at least, in the Anglosphere.

  35. G.... S....

  36. S.... V....

    Welll don't throw stones from glass houses XD

  37. T.... W....

  38. S.... V....

    Canada produced him.... but America gave him the record label :P

  39. E.... S....

    30 i think

  40. T.... W....

    I agree that Canada and the UK are leaders in original pop ... but lest we forget the horror that is Bieber? That's a mistake that can't be unwritten. :-P

  41. B.... D....

    You forgot Nickelback.

  42. a.... b....

    my song forev

  43. A.... M....

  44. H.... E....

  45. S.... ....

    and aussies are not?

  46. D.... B....

    lol guys, she's married to Dan who plays the guitar in the group. she's the daughter of a Canadian politician.

  47. A.... ....

    @EzraMerr I dont know if you or the others are right about her having a sex change because I litterally became a fan like two minutes ago but what does it matter if she had a sex change? We'll still love her just the same.

  48. B.... Y....

    @EzraMerr Dragonatte is the band.. Martina is the singer.. And she didn't have a sex change.. =.=

  49. S.... ....

    @ipodguru12 ARE they Canadian ?!

  56. c.... ....

    @3GBlog ......DEVIN TOWNSEND! ....the most crative of the lot

  57. E.... ....

    @suskabob
    _____I'm livin' in the US right now, and I don't even watch Hilton movies... Yes, Paris Hilton made a few movies. But DO NOT WATCH THEM, for what is SEEN CANNOT BE UNSEEN. I'd rather watch a lemon party. Then I'll go parachute out of a plane--except, instead of packin' a 'chute, I'll have pots and pans come out when I pull the cord.

  58. B.... M....

    its pronounced "Canadia"
    l2speak english srsly, amirite?

  59. s.... ....

    @o0liam0o21 I'm Canadian and I don't listen to him. That's like saying you're from the States and you watch Paris Hilton "movies".

  60. K.... R....

    @o0liam0o21 Oh ew no...Only those with no taste! (Yes, we have that kind in Canada too, I'm surprised too!) Haha

  61. s.... ....

    ultimate propaganda technique, repetition.

  62. K.... A....

    @anywherestoofar .... I seen this and knew it was you lol!!

  63. N.... I....

    @anywherestoofar not really no

  64. V.... K....

    her voice is like liquid velvet, i wanna spoon with her.

  65. b.... ....

    im happy that ultra records brought me to find Dragonette
    <3 them!

  66. S.... ....

    @lennarttrouborst eh dragonette?

  67. M.... ....

    the ultimate Canadian concert would be: Dragonette, Tiga and Chromeo in one night

  68. c.... ....

    @turkeyprank unfortunetly Canadian bands never get any recognition unless they have massive publicity. Though Dragonette actually live in the UK, its just the band themselves are FROM canada.

  69. S.... Z....

    Canada has some awesome music. I get so tired of hearing the same sounding shit over and over again on American radios. I always look to Canada and the UK for my tunes and they never disappoint . Dragonettes is just another band to prove my point. They're awesome, hope they get more recognition.

  70. y.... ....

    wait.....where does the second set of legs come from????

  71. y.... ....

    the off beat drives me nuts, i have to minimize the vid and just listen to the song lol........

  72. m.... ....

    @abbeyhilary true true.

  73. m.... ....

    @ZSHudson hahaha!!that's funny, it's kinda sad though, because none of the good bands in america get enough publicity, so it seems that those are the only singers we have. not that they're bad or anything, just not my cup of tea.

  74. m.... ....

    @lacrosse222 ummm...i'm pretty sure he's not. he has two kids and a wife. and i don't think it really matters if he is or not. being gay isn't horrible, and it isn't an insult, it's just the way people are.

  75. G.... ....

    @ZSHudson I thought it was funny..... and i'm American. It's too bad more Americans can't look past hannah montana and jonas at some of the amazing musicians in Canada.

  76. M.... H....

    isnt barack obama gay

  77. a.... ....

    @abbeyhilary n knaan

  78. a.... ....

    the us may have lady gaga and beyonce, but canada has dragonette and lights :)

  79. J.... C....

    This song is perfect!!! =) Can't get enough.

  80. w.... j....

    @shindak666
    LOL OMG thats fkn hilarious..........

  81. Z.... ....

    @DragonettesFan repetition with half naked woman in between the repetitions lol

  82. m.... ....

    @shindak666 God this made me laugh so HARD!

  83. c.... ....

    good tune... love her voice: quality

  84. P.... K....

    Nice song great beats ..... but it sounds like 1990's Telugu music :) ...

  85. A.... L....

    Great track, love how her voice sounds over the electro beat, go Canada!

    @famineoftheflesh. The song is about how her hooking up with a guy that pretends that he doesn't have feelings for her but really does, and how hot it would be if they did. =D

  86. n.... ....

    hey I think I know but i'm not entirely sure. This is how I picture it - the singer is attracted to another person, however, she is seeing someone at the time (perhaps in a relationship). She has this strong attraction and believes that the other person feels it as well. She knows it is a mistake, and knows that is in unadvantageous in the long run, but she still wants it.

  87. m.... ....

    we hear you in poland

  88. i.... ....

    CANADA!

  89. s.... ....

    Don't stand too close to me
    If you're left alone with me... ahh!
    And leave that door opened
    Get someone to keep us company

    Cause I've been making up a list of things I'd do to you
    As we would dance on either side of the room
    But it's too late, I'd never say it
    Anyway, I'm taken and we're both leaving with who we came

  90. s.... ....

    Somewhere you're sleeping it off
    But I'm wide awake
    Chasing a runaway thought
    So come on say it!

    You could feel it too
    Don't hide - You liar!
    Some kind of thunder inside
    Don't speak, don't breathe
    Don't touch the fire
    It's gonna burn us alive

  91. s.... ....

    I know you could feel it too
    I saw you - Liar!
    Standing off, run away
    One look, one touch
    We won't survive it
    It's gonna burn us alive
    (It's gonna burn us alive)

    But I've come to close to this
    I rub myself against it, oh no!
    I can't touch it but I feel it
    Can't use it but I need it, Oh!

  92. s.... ....

    Oh no, you don't fool me
    But I can keep a secret
    I can read it like you wrote it all down
    And I'm not looking for your love
    But we would do it well
    And that's the thing I can't stop thinking about

    Somewhere you're sleeping it off
    But I'm wide awake
    Chasing a runaway thought
    Just try proving me wrong
    But I'll find a way to
    Make you confess to it all

  93. s.... ....

    I wanna wrestle with the savage creature - I can
    Well think of jump up and eat you
    Some covet cause it's human nature
    But I'm coming to the core: Attention!
    Some love is got a built-in heater
    Some heat is gotta catch on fire
    Put it out while you still can
    You know, you play with fire...
    You gonna get burn!

  94. s.... ....

    You could feel it too
    Don't hide - You liar!
    Some kind of thunder inside
    Don't speak, don't breathe
    Don't touch the fire
    It's gonna burn us alive

    I know you could feel it too
    I saw you - Liar!
    Standing off, run away
    One look, one touch
    We won't survive it
    It's gonna burn us alive
    (It's gonna burn us alive)

  95. D.... O....

    :46 to :48, sweet sample from the drum intro to 'brick house' by the commodores.

  96. d.... ....

    LOL i haven't herd that sence like 98

  97. M.... A....

    I know you can feel it too i saw you liar.
    Somewhere you are sleeping it off but I'm wide awake chasing a runaway dream

    DRAGONETTE! :)

  98. a.... ....

    I think its the best track on the new album.

    Please come to Coachella next year!

  99. B.... ....

    I love this song with a passion.
