Mystery Jets - Flakes Lyrics

huge overwhelming nostalgia

🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼

When the song still gets you in the feels 10 years later

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Did they delete the album "21" from their Spotify? It's one of my favorite albums of all time, and I realized today that it was suddenly gone :(

Esta es la Música que MTV debería haber puesto en esos tiempos o ahora, en vez de realities Show basuras o reggaetón.

Does ANYONE KNOW OR HAVE THE FULL STICKS AND STONES SESSH? WHEN THEY ARE COVERIND AZTEC CAMERA IN THE ELAVATOR????? PLEASE help

This song reminds me of Chelsea...thanks for turning me on doll. This song for you.

WOW!!!!......... 9 years and people still don't know about this song I remember listening to this song in middle school..........

This song
Is one I never thought that I'd play
But if you want me gone
There are kinder ways to say
So long than spitting in my face

They don't teach these things in school
They just lay down the rules which are there for you to break
Which are there for you to break

If I'm wrong
Then dust me off and put me in my place, but
Drop a bomb
Shall you blow me away without even a trace?
I'll be gone and I won't give chase

'Cause when you're in pieces, you pick up the bits
And nothing fits, and the wind blows
You away
Oh, the wind blows you away
Oh, the wind blows you away
Oh, the wind blows you away

I pray
There will come a time when I think of you and I smile
These days
Everything seems to last only a while
Remember the names
For the day when we'd have a child

But the trouble with dreams, they're not what they seem
'Cause when you awake, they fall through your fingers
In flakes
They fall through your fingers in flakes
They fall through your fingers in flakes
They fall through your fingers in flakes

pizenblues Thx ✨💖

faz 8 anos q escutei essa música, e toda vez que ouço ela novamente e como se sentisse o vento do outono em meu rosto! vocês fazem parte da minha vida!! obrigada por essa música.

La weá buena

I'm here because I'm still deciding whether I like them or not and this is the fifth track I've listened to

+Wolf Lair to be fair all 5 of their albums have quite a bit of variation between them, so even if you don't like the 5 songs you've listened to I would still recommend listening around a bit more :)

Great song but they used 'there' instead of 'they're' in the on-screen lyrics and it really bothers me.
Man, I'm lame...

I cannot wait to see them on Thursday! Eel Pie hero's

I'm here because of the show Casual

who's came here because of cameron's tweet?

+madrx2 cameron monaghan

casey shannon I came here because of Florence Welch

Hahaha I'm a bit late, found an old interview, and looked up the song. But DAMN, Ginger's got good taste in music

brings back so many feelings i had back then

reminds me of my preteens

love flo's version as well x

This song makes me feel like a snowstorm .

The feels.

............................

I love the song.
But they used 'there' instead of 'they're'.
It bothers me.

this reminds me of a happier time in my life

It makes me sad, but maybe because it reminds me of happier times as well.

this band is so underrate :) , they are awesome

how it hurts

i wanna know, tell me :c

I could technical explain you "why" - but i think this would kinda destroy this beautiful illusion 4 u

he looks like Edward Sissor-Hands

5 years later and still underrated as fuck! Urgh

Muhd Haq It says your comment was posted 5 years ago. It doesn't seem like much has changed in the last 5 years either.

urm she covered this.

Florence + The Machine Flakes!! Awsome cover people!!

thumbs up if it's almost the end of 2012 and you're still hooked to this

Vineeth B when it's mid 2017 and you're still listening to it

Yeah, I do! Just message me your email and I'll send it to you ;D

It makes me feel so sad ))':

kai is so dreamy:)

I love this song, but Florence's version . . . I can't decide which one I love more :D

Lauren Smith I love Florence's version a wee bit more ;)

can't stop playing this :)

this is SO true! this is amazing! don't know how they do it!

it's SOOOO good!!
how come the second to last comment is 2 months old :o
this needs to be heard!! I came here because of Florence + the Machine but what matters is only that I freaking love this song!!

The 13 people that disliked this song don't know what real music is (-__-)

I drove my car on the 60 Freeway going about 90 mpg drunk as fuck singing along to this song after my girlfriend broke up with me.... now i take the bus.

Austin do you still ride the bus? It's been five years. I would imagine you got your license back. I'm on restricted get reinstated soon. 2 DUIs

@FatherVinyard88 HAHAHAHAHA

Beautiful band, beautiful song.. I think I'm going to cry here!

i've seen them live, i think i was the only person that knew all the words :L

I saw them live and they're beautiful live <3

i really dont know how people can dislike this song!

@mwillis1000 Oh, shut up

Excellent song. My wife introduced me to this.

cause when you're in pieces, you pick up the bits, and nothing fits, and the wind blows you awayyy

I have decided, this is my favorite song in the world-- No, Universe♥

brilliant, big love.x

So I'm kind of sort of in love with this song.
:)

@johanningsan original music video?

such a great band.

@mag1712 suchhh a cute comment >.<

this song rocks my socks it's mighty it's mighty

wtf is he wearing

Absolutly adore this track. Im astounded that its not more popular or well known. I have to say that Florence and the machine do it better vocally but its great all the same.

it should be 'they're' not 'there' at 2.42 but I love you anyway Mystery jets :)

@mag1712 wat

duff video, great song

@mag1712 i'm sorry. i was jking. :) great song. great band. just messing with u. :-p

@mag1712 that's really emo... :-s

but it is a great song. :)

Good song but...
Playing guitar with gloves?

Can anyone exlain what this song is exactly about?
I think I know.. but I'm not quite sure.

Florence version sucked balls..you feel more when Mystery Jets play it, everyone basically got the same feeling when they heard this song "shivers down their spine" Truly beautiful! but bad song to listen to when getting over a heartbreak a real tear jerker

@Nikkii2424 that chick ruined it

@Nikkii2424 Urghhhh.

This song makes me feel like everythings going to be alright...or not...at the same time.

Florence and the machine is better but good job Mysteries

I saw them in Dublin last week, can't wait to go and see them again. This song is soooo brilliant.

If they Christmas caroled at my house I would pass out because it's too perfect to be real. <3

could someone pleas tab this....i love this song and the guitar is amazing

This song is soooo beautiful, it brings tears to my eyes...now lets all masturbate together quietly...softly...thats it.....

What a song

Mystery Jets are just so amazing, just utterly amazing ♥

just uberly beautiful and sent me shivers, i adore the mystery jets <3
