100 Years Lyrics - Florence And The Machine

[Verse 1] 

I believe in you and in our hearts we know the truth 

I believe in love and the darker it gets, the more I do 

Try and fill us with your hate and we will shine a light 

And the days will become endless and never, and never turn to night 

And never, and never turn to night 

[Chorus] 

Then it's just too much, I cannot get you close enough 

A hundred arms, a hundred years, you can always find me here 

And lord, don't let me break this, let me hold you lightly 

Give me arms to pray with instead of ones that hold too tightly 

[Verse 2] 

We have no need to fight 

We raise our voices and let our hearts take flight 

Get higher than those planes can fly 

Where the stars do not take sides

[Chorus] 

Then it's just too much, I cannot get you close enough 

A hundred arms, a hundred years, you can always find me here 

And lord, don't let me break this, let me hold you lightly 

Give me arms to pray with instead of ones that hold too tightly 

And then it's just too much, the streets, they still run with blood 

A hundred arms, a hundred years, you can always find me here 

And lord, don't let me break this, let me hold you lightly 

Give me arms to pray with instead of ones that hold too tightly 

[Verse 3] 

I let him sleep, and as he does 

My held breath fills the room with blood 

He hurts in ways I can't describe 

My heart bends and breaks so many, many times 

And is born again with each sunrise 

And is born again with each sunrise 

[Instrumental interlude] 

[Bridge] 

Funerals were held all over the city [?] 

For you to bleed in the square 

A woman raised his omen from the pyre 

Sorry, we thought you didn't care 

And how does it feel while you scratch the itch 

How does it feel? 

Pulled out all your stitches 

Judas is a bitch 

A hundred arms, a hundred years 

A hundred arms, a hundred years 

[Chorus] 

And then it's just too much, the streets, they still run with blood 

A hundred arms, a hundred years, you can always find me here 

And lord, don't let me break this, let me hold you lightly 

Give me arms to pray with instead of ones that hold too tightly 

Oh, oh, oh
