Foster The People - Goats In Trees Lyrics
[Goats yipping]
(One, two, one two three four)
Well I was caught inside the wreck
I was filled with indifference
The animals they were getting tired
So I sang them a song
'Cause they promised not to take too long
Well I can't find my way back home
I'll listen to you if you want me to
But you have to share a smoke
Yeah I've been runnin' against the wind
And I can't hear the angels calling
Right back out of my stride
I feel the change in the rising tide
And blood is in the room
I buried all my wrongs there with my youth
(Don't give up on me now)
I'm on the outside
(Don't give up on me now)
And I'm falling apart
(Ah-oh-ohh)
Woo-ooh, woo-ooh, woo-ooh
Well, pleased to meet you, excuse my hands
I've been bitten by an enemy that's pretended to be my friend
No I never wanted to be like them
I thought I was just too clever
To be brought down to their level
Of misfortuned chagrin
I don't care now what it's worth
But if you lift this burden off my back
I'll follow you to the bloody end
I've lived my life the way I want
But no one can tell me they're not afraid
Of the freedom of deliverance
Well I take it all in stride
I feel the change in the rising tide
And someone's in the room
I buried all my guilt there with my youth
(Don't give up on me now)
And I'm on the outside
(Don't give up on me now)
And it's warm on the outside
(Don't give up on me now)
That's a lie
I don't wanna fall apart...
Ooh, ooh
Yeah, well me I've been afraid
I clawed and I fought like hell
The darkest days upon you
Yeah, well me I've been astray
My blood was turning to sand
The darkest days upon you
Yeah, well me I've been afraid
The numbness was gettin' closer
The feverish days upon you
Hey-eyy...
Ooweyyoooo, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooweyyoooo, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooweyyoooo, ooh-woo-ooh
Ooweyyoooo, ahh-ahh
Ah-aahh ah-aahhhh
[Low voices, goats yipping]

Radiohead vibes

Literally the best song Mark has ever written.

Well I can't find my way back home
I'll listen to you if you want me to
But you have to share a smoke

The madness has been pulling me
Right back out of my stride
I feel the change in the rising tide
And blood is in the room
I buried all my wrongs there with my youth
(Don't give up on me now)
I'm on the outside

So relaxing
all their songs are freaking different. that is why i love them
I kissed the most toxic girl I’ve ever met for the first time to this song..... Niceeee
This is there best song why so little views
One step at a time.
I've just played the song backwards and the end is pretty creepy. Heard the sentences/words "let me in", "saturized"(?) and "never like me", does that makes any sense?
(Still an amazing song btw)
They are artists, it makes sense.
I Believe all 3 albums of their to be Masterpieces... But this album.. is My Favorite.. these instrumentals... Nevermind, Fire Escape ... This Amazing Beautiful Song ... Saw them live in Miami Beach and they Are a Mind Blowing Show to See ... Forever Thanful and Grateful full for them
Bem, eu estava preso dentro do naufrágio
Nunca encontrei a minha saída,
Eu estava cheio de indiferença.
Os animais foram ficando cansado
Então eu cantei uma música,
Porque eles prometeram que não demoraria muito.
Bem, eu não posso achar meu caminho de volta para casa
Eu vou ouvir você, se você quiser que eu ouça
Mas você tem que compartilhar um fumo.
Sim, eu fui correndo contra o vento
E eu posso ouvir os anjos chamando
A loucura foi me puxando
De volta para meu caminho,
Eu sinto a mudança na maré alta
E o sangue está no quarto
Eu enterrei todos os meus erros lá com a minha juventude.
(Não desista de mim agora)
Eu estou do lado de fora
(Não desista de mim agora)
E estou caindo aos pedaços
Woo yeah
Bem, prazer em te conhecer perdoe pela minha mão
Eu fui mordido por um inimigo que fingiu
Ser meu amigo
Não, eu nunca quis ser como eles
Pensei que eu era muito inteligente para ser trazido para o nível deles
Do desgostoso infortúnio.
Eu não me importo agora o que vale a pena
Mas se você levantar esse fardo das minhas costas
Vou te seguir até o fim sangrento.
Eu vivi a minha vida do jeito que eu quero
Mas ninguém pode me dizer que eles não tem medo
Da liberdade de salvação.
Vou levar tudo na esportiva?
Eu sinto a mudança na maré alta.
E alguém está no quarto,
Eu enterrei todos os meus erros lá com a minha juventude.
(Não desista de mim agora)
Eu estou do lado de fora
(Não desista de mim agora)
É quente do lado de fora
(Não desista de mim agora)
Isso é uma mentira, eu não quero desmoronar.
Sim, eu bem que tive medo
Eu agarrei e lutei como o inferno
Os dias sombrios sobre você
Sim, eu bem que vou ficar
Meu sangue foi transformado em areia
Os dias mais sombrios sobre você
Sim, eu bem que tive medo
A dormência foi se aproximando
Os dias febris em cima de você
Sim
Such a beautiful song is sooo underrated
this song was the first time i heard his voice do that thing and i freaked out
This song is underrated
this is easily one of FTP's greatest songs and it is so unreasonably slept on
Goats in Trees, Kids With Guns.
Just discovered these guys and I’m disappointed that none of there songs sound as cool as cool as this one does
Why is this called goats in trees
at the beginning and the end you can hear goat noises but as for the trees part idk.
HOOOOOOOOOooooOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! WHOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
My new foster the people favourite song for sure
Here from Mark's stream. This song always makes me cry. Goodnight, stranger
When he sings "But if you lift this burden off my back, I'll follow you to the bloody end", It's just like if he transformed into Jake Bugg.
this is my most favorite song by them , it’s just so calm and the lyrics are so relatable it makes me cry 💙
I love Foster The People, I get Radiohead vibes from this song, kinda reminds me of Exit Music
I can’t believe I saw Forster the people live it’s been like a year or 2
You are a very lucky person!! :,/
Beautiful.
This is one of my all-time favorite FTP songs, just because of the way Mark got away from his normal style and used the full range of his voice on this one. It really draws you in, amazing how this song gets under your skin. It's dreamy, dark, and the lyrics are just inscrutable enough to make you really wonder what it's about. Perfect song for a warm summer night.
Perfect 👌
Jeremy Walker the deep parts is usually how he sounds like when talking
Giving me some Mother Mother vibes
Reminds me of 80s English band The the.
He sounds like Matt from The National when he goes low and I do a double take
💛💚💛
Fernando Calderón Ramirez I’m gratified to know I’m not the only one still listening to this.
My dogs do the same noise when an ambulance passes by with the sirens
this song is amazing
Such an amazing voice. Always been one of my favorites from them. God so sexy 😂😂🤷🏻♀️
This album was so good
"I've been bitten by a enemy that has pretended to be my friend" that describes my 6th grade school year
sarah tipton It describes marijuana for me. Sounds lame, I know... but I love it, and I feel it’s not good for me. I’m caught inside the wreck. I’m on the outside and falling apart. Not marijuanas fault, but my own. I never wanted to be like the ones that smoked weed. I stereotyped at a young age. I met a girl and hoped she would take the burden off my back and I’d follow her to the bloody end. But I’ve been afraid, and the darkest days were upon me. It’s not her that controls or has a say over me. It’s me. I was in denial, and I clawed and fought like hell, but the darkness bested me. It was then I found the truth
@TheReal President2016 This is so much deeper than just literally everybody's middle school years, no offense to OP but like. hm.
Does this remind anyone else of “Lord of the Flies”? Idk but the vibe and title of this song just reminds me of beelzebub or something. Definitely my favorite off the album and from theirs in general.
Arcane Senzen at the end of the song all I can hear is the name "Baphomet" being said in backwards tongues while goats Yip on in the back. And baphomet is 50% goat or ram in many depictions
Morocco in a nutshell
I love them <3
Songs good for exploring the mind... Plenty of dotted adventure.
i love the way mark can make his voice go from low to high
shaina Same
It's lit as fuck.
That bass😍😍
I'm addicted to this song
Jesse Vazquez This song is about addiction actually
SkullyNova No it isn't
Yes it is. It is about overcoming it. Mark alludes to the fact that if goats can learn to climb trees, we can overcome anything. The thing he overcame was addiction. That's what caused his indifference.
the ending be trippy af
luis leyva all I hear is the word "Baphomet" in backwards speaking
While goats *baphomets 50% ram or goat in many depictions* yip in the background
Just play it backwards and you will know that it is saying "Well I was caught inside the wreck."
This song just gets me everytime
