Imagine Dragons - Topic Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm in the bathroom, looking at me
Face in the mirror is all I need (ooh)
Wait until the reaper takes my life
Never gonna get me out alive
I will live a thousand million lives (ooh)
My patience is waning
Our patience is waning
Is this entertaining?
I-I-I got this feeling, yeah, you know
Where I'm losing all control
'Cause there's magic in my bones
I-I-I got this feeling in my soul
Go ahead and throw your stones
'Cause there's magic in my bones
Playing with a stick of dynamite
There was never gray in black and white
There was never wrong 'til there was right (ooh, oh)
Feeling like a boulder hurtling
Seeing all the vultures circling
Burning in the flames I'm working in
Turning in a bed that's darkening
My patience is waning
Is this entertaining?
Our patience is waning
Is this entertaining?
I-I-I got this feeling, yeah, you know
Where I'm losing all control
'Cause there's magic in my bones (in my bones)
I-I-I got this feeling in my soul
Go ahead and throw your stones
'Cause there's magic in my bones
'Cause there's magic in my bones
Look in the mirror of my mind
Turning the pages of my life
Walking the path so many paced a million times
Drown out the voices in the air
Leaving the ones that never cared
Picking the pieces up and building to the sky
My patience is waning
Is this entertaining?
My patience is waning
Is this entertaining?
I-I-I got this feeling, yeah, you know
Where I'm losing all control
'Cause there's magic in my bones (magic in my bones)
I-I-I got this feeling in my soul (soul)
Go ahead and throw your stones
'Cause there's magic in
There goes my mind (I-I-I)
Don't mind
There goes my mind (there it goes, there it goes)
There goes my mind (I-I-I)
Don't mind (there it goes)
There goes my mind
'Cause there's magic in my bones

Одна из немногих музыкальных групп, которая не потеряла свой огонёк: всё ещё в том же стиле, и всё ещё превосходно!
FF Rエyジ
Согласен на все 100%

не сказала бы, что стиль тот же, все таки в начале это был какой-никай рок, сейчас чистый поп
это не плохо, стиль все равно очень самобытный, где угодно узнаю их музыку, даже если до этого не слышала
Eric_ s_Vilkoy
Песни хороши, это факт. Но Night Visions все-таки был особенным, каким-то более простым и в тоже время уникальным. Там был свой ритм, свой вокал, каждая песня выделялась своими фишками, а клипы вообще отдельная тема. Может, это настальгия, но именно с этого альбома началась их история.
Evgeny Arsenchenko
@Eric_ s_Vilkoy Ну Night Visions, бесспорно, лучший их альбом. Для проверенных временем фанатов лучше уже ничего и не выйдет, знаю по себе.
Как оно обычно бывает? Раньше было лучше. Хотел лишь сказать то, что если сравнивать с тем же Three Days Grace (Да, они поменяли почти весь состав группы, но всё же) - основной стиль, может, искра какая-то в их музыке остаётся прежней. Не могу словами описать, проще почувствовать. Клипы да, очень жаль что больше таких короткометражек мы не увидим :(

Услышал эту песню на радио, когда ехал в машине. По стилю понял сразу что это песня от Imagine Dragons, молодцы, держат свой стиль!
Диана Столярова
Эта группа никогда не умрёт!
Zak_Demon_BG
То же самое но только я услышал на радио в нокии
F1nnik
