Florence + the Machine Lyrics
The show was ending and I had started to crack
Woke up in Chicago and the sky turned black
And you're so high, you're so high, you had to be an angel
And I'm so high, I'm so high, I can see an angel
I hear your heart beating in your chest
The world slows 'till there's nothing left
Skyscrapers look on like great, unblinking giants (oh)
In those heavy days in June
When love became an act of defiance
(Oh)
(Oh)
(Oh)
Hold onto each other
Hold onto each other
Hold onto each other
Hold onto each other
You were broken-hearted and the world was, too
And I was beginning to lose my grip
And I have always held it loosely
But this time I admit
I felt it really start to slip
And choir singing in the street
And I will come to you
To watch the television screen
In your hotel room
Always down to hide with you
Hold onto each other
Hold onto each other
Hold onto each other
Hold onto each other
You're so high, you're so high
You're so high, you're so high
You're so high, you're so high
You had to be an angel
I'm so high, I'm so high
I'm so high, I'm so high
I'm so high, I'm so high
I can see an angel

I feel like crying, this is the first album Florence + the machine have released since my mum died, her birthday Is in June. Hearing "hold on to eachother" reminded me of what she always said to me and my sister, she always told us she wouldn't be here forever so my sister and I had to always hold on to eachother, and we will

I went through the same in 2018, just 2 weeks before this album came out. And since then this record has helped me to heal in some many, many ways.

The beginning of the very first song of the album -
Florence: The show is ending
Me: What? 🤨

I would have liked your comment but it's on a good number so I commented instead 😁
BalloonFrog
the message behind this song is so heavy... Florence is singing about the LGBT community, and the lives lost after Pulse. it’s so beautiful when she encourages us to “hold on to each other”. nothing less than a masterpiece.
