[Intro: Sia]
I woke up thinking you were still here
My hands were shaking with regret
I've held this dream for such a long long time

[Hook: Sia]
I wanna get up
To the rhythm of the wild, to the rhythm of the wild heart
That beats, that beats like a rolling drum

[Verse 1: Sia]
I saw you standing on the corner
I saw you standing on your own
I get the feeling that it's all a dream

[Modified Hook: Sia]
And I wanna get up
To the rhythm of a wild, to the rhythm of a wild heart
That beats, that beats like a drum

[Chorus: Sia]
When I fall asleep I can see your face
What I lost in you I will not replace
And I could run away, I could let them down
But I will remember your light

[Verse 2: Sia]
Your light it follows me in darkness
I'm trying hard but I can't win
And I've played the victim for a long long time
And I wanna grow up
From the rhythm a young, from the rhythm of a younger heart
It leads just like a river runs

That night I sent over the parkway
The summer's gone and I'm alone
And I get the feeling that you're somewhere close

[Changed Hook: Sia]
And I wanna get up
To the rhythm of your wild, to the rhythm of your wild heart
It beats, been beating since you've gone

[Chorus: Sia]
When I fall asleep I can see your face
What I lost in you I will not replace
And I could run away, I could let them down
But I will remember your light

[Changed Chorus: Sia]
When I fall asleep I can see your face
What I lost in you I will not replace
And I could run away, I could let them down
Before you're gone, before you're gone
I still remember your light
Your light

[Outro: Sia]
And if you see me in the darkness
I hope you know I'm not alone
I carry you with every breath I take
I won't let up, I won't let up
'Til the wind is gone
'Til the wind is gone
'Til the wind is gone
'Til the wind is gone
'Til the wind is gone

The so-called “80s-nostalgia” indie pop artist Bleachers infuses modern electronica with stylistic elements of the 80s. Headed by Jack Antonoff of Steel Train and Fun. fame, the band’s music is deeply personal, emotive, and lyrically evocative.

Their debut album Strange Desire was released July 10th, 2014, and was mostly written by Antonoff throughout his tour with fun. A very visceral, realized album that addresses death, memory, self-image, and spontaneity, among other themes, Desire showed the world the great potential Bleachers has to become the next pop act to become a household name.

After an EP featuring new versions of Like A River Runs and an album of Desire’s songs covered by female artists in the same vein of the final Steel Train album, the group returned with Gone Now. It featured many of the same themes as the first album.
