Yeasayer - Phoenix Wind Lyrics






Time is just a number, it takes you by the hand
And descending like the shepherd dog buried in the sand
Your magnet eyes move fluid in my veins
A Phoenix wind is murdering the planes

[?]

I kinda feel like, a wind is coming soon
I kinda feel like, the clock is well past doom
The other face of, illusion not as weak
Has been revealed by, the tricks of all asleep

[?]

When they said when they said your mind could get better
Was a bulb above your head
No more trivial wagers you could turn the tables
Not a single page was read

When they said when they said life would get better
If we proceed proceed to bed
And the hardest winds and the flattest roads
Were the only ones ahead

I kinda feel like, a wind is coming soon
I kinda feel like, the clock is well past doom
The other face of, illusion not as weak
Has been revealed by, the tricks of all asleep

Nothing's as it seems, nightmares are healing your dreams
Nothing's as it seems, when your nightmares are healing your dreams
Healing your dreams

Nothing's as it seems, nightmares are healing your dreams
Nothing's as it seems, when your nightmares are healing your dreams

  1. C.... H....

    Listen to this at 1.25. Its much better! Normal speed sounds too slow. Actually the label for the record has the wrong speed printed, but to me it always sounded better than the correct slower speed.

  2. K.... B....

    This song is so painfully amazing. Hnnnggggggggggggggggg.
    Add weed for even more perfection!

  3. G.... J....

    This song makes me want to do drugs on a wet humid night in a crappy backyard in rural Florida, and I mean that in the best way possible.

  4. J.... K....

    Which album is this song from?

    J.... K....

    It's from End Blood 

  5. M.... ....

    this is slightly faster than in the original record...plz fix! 
    thanks

  6. w.... ....

    my fav song on this album. eargasm

  7. P.... ....

    im waiting..

  8. L.... M....

    Yeah, I like my music so complex, that it's devoid of emotion.

  9. F.... K....

    Is this from their EP? Fuck, why haven`t I heard this before

  10. K.... S....

    Lol... because the only metric for song critique is the number of guitar chords used? gtfo and go listen to some AC/DC

  11. x.... ....

    iruv69. go listen to justin bieber then

  12. m.... ....

    The new stuff is also a bit "gid gird." (Read aloud to say 'good god' in a really silly accent)

  13. b.... ....

    This band is amazing but their best is All hour cymbals, always and forever!

  14. M.... A....

    So technically you are calling yourself a piece of shit? I agree!

  15. B.... ....

    Idea: If you don't like a band or song, then don't listen to it and let those that do enjoy it to continue doing so in peace.

  16. T.... ....

    You are so angry, go take your chill pills and stop bitching.

  17. M.... A....

    everyone is writing paragraphs why? 0.0

  18. D.... !....

    I kinda feel like, a wind is coming soon
    I kinda feel like, the clock is well past noon
    ........feel so .......illusions that (has been)is real have been revealed by, the tricks of fallacy

    Nothings as it seems, nightmares are heeling your dreams
    Nothings as it seems when nightmares are heeling your dreams (heeling your dreams)
    Nothings as it seems, nightmares are heeling your dreams
    Nothings as it seems when nightmares are heeling your dreams

  19. D.... !....

    No more trival wagers, you can the turn the tapes, and not a single page was read
    when they said when the said life would get better if they could .................
    and the harvest winds and the ...flood were the only ones ahead


  20. D.... !....

    Can anyone help me figure out the lyrics? I've got some (which could be wrong) but there's also plenty of gaps. Here's what I have, could take a few posts:

    My time is just a number, it takes you by the hand
    Descending like a Sheppard, don’t bury it in the sand
    Your magnet eyes move fluid in my gut
    A pheonix wind in my inner blood
    And ..............this brutal son, blames to god and small children
    Retched weather............,
    because i live with............

  21. B.... ....

    Sounds like someone's got a case of cynicism.

  22. a.... ....

    I put down lil' wayne and picked up Yeasayer!! sho' nuff =o)

  23. h.... ....

    i wish there were lyrics on here... (;

  24. a.... ....

    @thatguy203 your my hero! gotta appreciate good music!

  25. j.... ....

    @avedic Yeah, I see where you're coming from. It definitely seems like they got a lot more of a poppish sound in Odd Blood compared to the previous album. But hopefully experiment a little more with their sound.

  26. a.... ....

    i sadly feel like they've gotten worse since the masterpiece of an intro to the world that was 2080/sunrise. :( friendly fire's new album seems to almost take yeasayer's early sound and extrapolate it into new territory. still love the band...but it almost sounds like they're bored now with making music. all the urgency and fun and vibrancy and freshness is lacking....imho

  27. M.... B....

    You guys...I was talking about the uploader of the video, thomyorke71. If I had connections with the real Thom Yorke I wouldn't know what to do with myself.

  28. J.... ....

    @redhotchilipepper417 Touche RHCP fan. I think if your into music enough to listen to radiohead than yeasayer will be right up your ally. Both are different and hard to listen to unless you can appreciate good music.

  29. m.... ....

    amazing song! :)

  30. M.... A....

    @Skirtage it was a special release for record store day. but i believe there will be a digital copy on itunes may 3rd

  31. M.... B....

    Whoa Thom Yorke is a fan of Yeasayer

  32. u.... ....

    I love the fact this was released, so glad!

  33. J.... P....

    Pure summer feelings
