Killers, The - A Matter Of Time Lyrics

looking for a way out i can feel it..

😁❤️❤️😘😘😘

Mr. Brightside, Miss Atomic Bomb, A matter of time, Jilted Lovers and Broken Hearts.

No mamen muy pocas vistas 😡 es un rolon ❤️🥰

Best album ever!!!

You're looking for a way out, I can feel it
Come on, show me where it hurts, maybe I can heal it
Your feelings are your own, now you keep them under lock and key
You've got me driving through the streets for an answer to the mystery

The world's still awake on Charleston Avenue
Outside that vacant starlight motel
I see you
Laughing with your girlfriends
Not a care in the world
Not a burden on your mind

It was a matter of time

There's a panic in this house and it's bound to surface
Just walking through the front door makes me nervous
It's creeping up the floorboards, got me wondering where I stand
How can I put out the fire? I've got a book of matches in my hand

When we first met, headstrong and filled with doubt
Made just enough, hustling tables, that summer to take you out
I was falling back on forever
When you told me about your heart
You laid it on the line

Laughing with your girlfriends
Not a care in the world
Not a burden on your mind
You're hanging on the line!

It was just a matter
It was a matter of time

We'd find ourselves a place, we belong in this forever
Ain't that what it's all about?
Make the promise and keep it
Come hell or high water
We'd figure it out

It was the night, it was the moon
It was the green grass in the garden
The victory and the sin

I know you're weary, look at me
Flailing in the corner
Here's the towel
Go on, throw it in

It was a matter of time
Can't you see that it's tearing me up inside?
Look what's laying at our feet
That's the wreckage of broken dreams
And burned out halos
And it's here on our street

I've always rated The Killers, Got me through college back in the days of Sam's Town....my girl at the time never liked that album but I've never heard a band where there music has got finer with age!

Easy the best song on Battle Born!

I really love this song!
It kinda gives me a "Headlong" by Queen vibe. Maybe just the hard rock feel with those "whoooa's" after the main melody in the verse.
Really great song, too bad it's not as known.

3:00 is just the best part

I really song this song ❤️

It was the night, it was the moon
It was the green grass in the garden
The victory and the sin

<3 chills

2:10 too much memories 🎵😢

No matter how many years go by this is still such a heart wrenching song.

such an underrated album

The kilers👏👏👍💖

Is this the third part? (Mr.Brightside, miss atomic bomb)

You're looking for a way out
I can feel it
Come on, show me where it hurts
Maybe I can heal it

Your feelings are your own
Now you keep 'em under lock and key
You got me drivin' through the streets
For an answer to the mystery

The world's still weak on Charleston Avenue
Outside that vacant Starlight Motel I see you
Laughing with your girlfriends
Not a care in the world, not a burden on your mind

It was a matter of time

There's a panic in this house and it's bound to surface
Just walkin' through the front door makes me nervous
It's creepin' up the floorboards, got me wondering where I stand
I cannot put out the fire, I got a book of matches in my hand

When we first met, headstrong and filled with doubt
Made just enough hustling tables that summer to take you out
I was fallin' back on forever when you told me about your heart
You laid it on the line

Laughing with your girlfriends
Not a care in the world, not a burden on your mind
(You laid it on the line)

It was just a matter, it was a matter of time

We found ourselves a place
We belong in it forever
Ain't that what it's all about
Make the promise and keep it
Come hell or high water
We'd figure it out

It was the night, it was the moon
It was the green grass in the garden
The victory and the sin

I know you're weary, look at me
Flailin' in the corner
Here's the towel
Go on, throw it in

It was a matter of time
Can't you see that it's tearing me up inside?
Look what's laying at our feet
That's the wreckage of broken dreams
And burned out hells
And it's here on our street

You're looking for a way out
I can feel it
Come on, show me where it hurts
Maybe I can heal it

Your feelings are your own
Now you keep 'em under lock and key
You got me drivin' through the streets
For an answer to the mystery

The world's still weak on Charleston Avenue
Outside that vacant Starlight Motel I see you
Laughing with your girlfriends
Not a care in the world, not a burden on your mind

It was a matter of time

Mash up this song with Foo Fighters' A matter of time and see what comes up

Música tooop

THE BEST THING EVER

Battle Born is the best album of The Killers. it has a lot of beautiful songs and I like this new vibe.
the other albums only had FEW good songs.
I wish the next album is more like battle born

Camilla Nascimento bullshit

If you think that other albums had few god songs you clearly havent listend to hot fuss. Each song is masterpiece

HOT FUSS is the best

Hot fuss is a very raw to me, battle born is way more complex and more adult

i agree.

que buena canción que buen álbum que buena banda que bueno esta Brandon jajaja ok no los amo

perfeita.

Isso! Toca meu coração dessa forma gritanteeee

This song speaks truths and lies

niceee!

We find ourselves a place we belong and live forever, ain't that what it's all about?

Make the promise and keep it
Come, hell or high water, we'd figure it out

One of the, if not the best Killers songs

I wish there was a video for this one. I loveeeee this song

Rasha K. Yess

When we first met, headstrong and filled with doubt
Made just enough, hustling tables, that summer to take you out

thiis ong changed my life for the worst

+Danruto-man mwi in cairo

Me again, song still awesome.

+Ghost フアン セバスチャン hell yeah! :P

Great song, probably my favorite song from battle born.

Got to be this and The way it was

My is the way it was

The two last comments are mine, i don't care, this song is too good.

This song is incredible, idk what is that people talking about.

I really wish the whole song was like the last minute and a half.

I freakin love this song :)

Jesus Christ is coming soon.

For some weird reason I can't stop thinking of Pokemon Adventures when I think of this song.

who in gods name would dislike this video, or any other killers song on youtube for that matter!!

*pretends to dislike* I am sin

Good question

So...we're falling back on forever again?

It's definitely linked to Mr Brightside and Miss Atomic Bomb. :)

This one also references a girl laughing with her girlfriends, just like they do in Miss Atomic Bomb :)

This is one of the reasons i love their songs ^^

Jon D and Jilted Lovers and Broken Hearts...

Remember the murder trilogy from Hot Fuss? they were linked to make a story.

I realy like battle born (album) but i think the killers has to come back to the old style like in hot fuss

hot fuss was there greatest album nothing can top that

Hot Fuss is my favorite album of theirs but I really hope they dont do that again because we've already heard that style from them and they continue to evolve. Im excited to see what style comes next. The lyrics on Hot Fuss weren't as meaningful or as deep as the other albums.

glon man says a person with hot fuss cover art profile picture.





Maybe i should change my picture with sams town cover art XD

damn the killers, making me burn with so much emotion, so many beautiful memories that bring me beautiful pain

that was so poetic and beautiful omg

Jonathan Gil they make us enjoy our pain 😭

Love it!!!!!!!!!!

I'm surprise this song has so little views, needs to be heard more.

Ronnie's mustache wrote this song! :)

2:56 and on <33333333333333333

My favorite band!

killers are the best band

The last minute and a half makes this song. So emotional.

Beautiful song of two lovers meeting. Romance will never die with the Killers still around.

3:00 and on <33333333

"Look what's laying on our feet. That's the wreckage of broken dreams and burnt out halos and it's here on our street."

That line is just so powerful.

I didn't like this album tht much at first, my sister said "keep listening! it'll grow on you, believe me!"
it grew on me.
OH BOY, DID IT GROW ON ME.

I listened to this song the other day and wasn't really crazy about it and then I gave it a second try and it sounded like a completely different song to me. That seems to be the case with all of their songs for me. No other band is like that with me for some reason.

The killers :)

My fave song!

I hope there's not a secret behind the band name! Btw i love the song :D

Falling in love with te killers :3 :*

I TOTALLY AGREE

I AGREE 100% LOVE THIS SONG AND THE KILLERS

This makes me cry

simplemente amo esta canción <3 <3 <3

This.
Me gusta so much

Gonna go see them live saturday, omfg so excited. x)

I see them exactly a week from now

In 20 years when The Killers make a documentary, they should call it "Falling Back On Forever".

This song it's just incredible !!! I can't wait going to a concert and listen this Song :)

I reckon the 3 best tracks in this album are, A Matter Of Time, Miss Atomic Bomb and Battle Born.
Followed with Prize Fighter.
But they're all so good it doesn't matter :)

That is the absolute truth...maybe a couple seconds prior...but yeah, THAT is the bottom line...

From 3:00 onwards is possibly the best minute ever produced by them...

Miss atomic Bomb 2:23 min ?

Sherlock, anyone? Whenever I listen to this, all I can think about is Sherlock. I can't be the only one.

foo fighters's matter of time is much much better

Best song on the album after runaways. This album is right up my street.

I think this is their best album... every song is awesome

cada vez mejor flowers q1 :D

anyone else notices the link between this and miss atomic bomb? he says "falling back on forever "

The best song of Battle Born

It'll grow on me.

The best of the Battle Born :D

มันส์เลยๆ

Theres one particular Synthesizer Riff at 3:03 that gives me chills, and such a nostalgia feel, that really reminds me of there older stuff

extremely underrated song in the album

the album it's a drug *-*

Really hope The Killers do this live on Thursday at Sheffield! Although if they do I might die from awesomeness overload haha :P

Its hard not to get a sawdust vibe from this track...it just has the attitude does b-tracks had

Wow !!!! Electrifying!!!!!!

seen the killers last friday nyt at the secc in scotland and this was epic live !

aunque solo sea el audio... pero... es lo mejor!

you gatta love the killers :)
this album gets better and better every time i listen to it
