Lyrics of Violent Delights by CHVRCHES

verse

Had a dream your father died
I couldn't scream, I couldn't cry
The second night, I dreamt you drowned
You couldn't fight, you were not found

chorus

These violent delights
Keep creeping into my nights
And they're reading my rites
And I'll never sleep alone again

chorus

And these violent delights
Keep bleeding into the light
And I'll never be right
But they'll never sleep alone again when I'm gone
When I'm gone

verse

A photograph will steal your soul
An epitaph won't make you whole
If I disappear, they'll say I killed myself
I never feared for my own health

chorus

And these violent delights
Keep creeping into my nights
And they're reading my rites
And I'll never sleep alone again

chorus

And these violent delights
Keep bleeding into the light
And I'll never be right
But they'll never sleep alone again when I'm gone
When I'm gone

bridge

I don't want to see it, I don't want to see it
I don't want to sleep alone, no
I don't want to see it, I don't want to see it
Never sleep alone again, no

bridge

I don't want to see it, I don't want to see it
I don't want to sleep alone, no
I don't want to see it, I don't want to see it
Never sleep alone again when I'm gone

chorus

These violent delights
Keep creeping into my nights
And they're reading my rites
And I'll never sleep alone again

chorus

And these violent delights
Keep bleeding into the light
And I'll never be right
And they'll never sleep alone again when I'm gone
When I'm gone

outro

Alone again when I'm gone
When I'm gone
Writer(s): Iain Andrew Cook, Martin Clifford Doherty, Lauren Eve Mayberry
