Roosevelt Lyrics
Tell my heart, to only let you go
From the start you only wanted more
Tell my heart, to only let you go
From the start you only wanted more
So tell me do you know
Before you get to decide
But I feel you will go
It's always better for you
Tell my heart, to only let you go
From the start you only wanted more
Tell my heart, to only let you go
From the start you only wanted more
So tell me do you know
Before you get to decide
But I feel you will go
It's always better for you

Lyrics:
Took my heart, to only let you go
From the start, you only wanted more
Took my heart, to only let you go
From the start, you only wanted more
So tell me do you know
Before you get to the sun
But after you will go
It's always been for you
Took my heart, to only let you go
From the start, you only wanted more
Took my heart, to only let you go
From the start, you only wanted more
So tell me do you know
Before you get to the sun
But after you will go
It's always been for you
So tell me do you know
Before you get to the sun
But after you will go
It's always been for you

Ironically—and somewhat bitterly!—no show in Montréal. 😢 Waaaa.

So, here's the funny thing. "Roosevelt" is actually a man named Marius Lauber. In live shows, he has a band, but in studio recordings, he plays all of the instruments himself and then edits the clips together to make the song. In this video, yes, he had a band, but in studio he does everything.

so its pretty much like tame impala AKA Kevin Parker
Cassandra Jimenez
Interesting

Been listening to metal since forever… this song changed my whole perspective about music lately. I still listen to metal but this song is being played in my headphones more than anything lately . Fucking amazing.
