I think that:
when your heart explodes
is it deathly cold

Is actually:
when your heart explodes
is it difficult

i think it’s “a devil’s access” not excess.

do a dance for me
baby it is late still you pour me
a tall one, go on
let the liquid take off what you’re on

you’ve been down before
boy and i like this
i’m in quicksand
i am sinking fast

perfect, heal it
’cuz your other half has got himself
a devil’s excess

welcome to england, he said
welcome to my world

you better bring your own sun, sweet girl
you gotta bring your own sun
don’t you forget to…
bring your own sun
just enough for everyone

heels on, go on
bang a tango but do not get tangled
who can stay strong
when they only give us lies to lean on

when your heart explodes
is it deathly cold?
you must let the colors violate the
blackness, there is
a magic world parallel
so leave your daily hell

welcome to england, he said
welcome to my world

it’s not a question, if i can
fight by your side
and we’ll stand
anything but
but i forgot
that you said, girl
if you come…

you better bring your own sun, sweet girl
you gotta bring your own sun
don’t you forget to…
bring your own sun
just enough for everyone

welcome to england
welcome to england

fight by your side
and withstand

and I agree.. everyone has done a great job deciphering these lyrics! She didn’t make it easy on us this time!! :)

Couple things I listened differently:

do a dance for me
baby it is late still you PULL me

don’t you forget TO…
bring your own sun

I agree with “devil’s axis” and “there is a magic world…” :)

I think it sounds great, and I really love this song. I think she really enjoys some of the manipulation you can do with your voice, and instruments on recordings. And, why not? It’s good to do different things. When she plays live, though, it’s all pure and beautiful.

Hot damn, daniel, I was all ready to break out my ‘perfect helix’ revelation and there you go stealing my thunder like a common thief.

And Stinky, I fear that although it may be kind of silly, you may be right about the liver. Ew. Shame.

You are all fabulous :)

“let the liquid take off what YOU’RE on”

People miss that all the time, and I just don’t get why…say YOU ARE, and if that is grammatically correct, use YOU’RE. YOUR is the possessive. “YOUR bad grammar drives me crazy,” for instance.

“liver” sounds good, too. Dang, you’d think after listening to her sing for over 16 years now, we’d all be better at this, eh?

I think this part is..

“your other half has the devil’s axis”

your other half has the devil’s accent…he talks like a brit. Welcome to England after all.

This song is so awesome! It’s gonna be a long month waiting for the cd release :(

how about let the liquid take off what you wont? i think its pretty damn cool shes still tryin new stuff on her tenth album, anyone elso noticed how little she’s layering background vocals one over the other? there’s like none on this song which is totally uncharacteristic of her recorded stuff. maybe shes delegating some of these harmonies to other instruments like the guitar. I dont know i think its pretty damn cool the whole thing. psyched for the record.
