M83 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Stealing my heart and brain
Flaming my every cell
You make me feel myself
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Will you stay on this land forever?Will you stay on this land forever?
Across the time and space
A never-ending dance
A blooming and a trance
You make me feel my soul
There's no more loneliness
Only sparkles and sweat
There's no more single fate
You make me feel myself
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Will you stay on this land forever?
Will you stay on this land forever?
My body is like a lightning rod
Capsize me and douse me in your bay
A shiver of want, always
When you're on the tip of my tongue
And in the back of your parked car
I could build a fort
And play all day
Between your lips and mine
Let's stay here forever
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Will you stay on this land forever? (Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
Will you stay on this land forever? (Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)

A blooming and a trance

I no longer feel alone
Only sparkles and sweat

There's no more single fate
Our fate is entwined, we are no longer alone

My body reacts powerfully to your presence
Capsize me and douse me in your bay
Overwhelm me with your love and affection
A shiver of want, always
I always desire you, and it excites me
When you are on the tip of my tongue
When I think of you or talk about you
In the back of your parked car
When we are alone together
I could build a fort
I feel safe and secure with you
And play all day
I can be myself and have fun with you
Between your lips and mine
When we kiss
Let's stay here forever
I never want this feeling to end, I want to be with you always

@RADZIO895
everyone talking about stranger things... but music videos for Midnight city, Reunion and Wait were inspired by Akira movie
@saltysali6145

@jamesharris30096

@allencooke2356

@naturesquad9174
All of them are inspired by Firestarter, which is older than Akira
@superharryboy
@Caleb is right. Quoting video description:
>Directed by Fleur & Manu, this video is a tribute to Village of the Damned, Close encounters of the Third kind and other Akiras. No kids where hurt in the process! Executive production by Division
@slotmoon
WHY NOBODY HERE IS TALKING ABOUT THAT AMAZING SOUND AT THE OUTRO??
@brightshade6660
Yeah this is pretty late but It's part of their song "Where the boats go"
@DarkValkyrian
That transition is awesome. Second only to the "Klaus I love you - Outro" transition
