The Drums Lyrics
You're perfect photographs on the wall
And if I know you you're ok
I don't wanna dance anymore
I don't wanna sing anymore
I don't wanna dance anymore we used to sing
I thought I'd be ok till I hit that floor
I thought I'd be fine till I needed more
I thought I'd be okay till I hit that floor
I thought my life would get easier
Instead its getting harder, instead it's getting harder
I thought my life would get easier,
Instead it's darker, instead it's getting colder
Without you
My life's a book of short stories,
And we wrote a new one everyday
I don't understand anymore
You don't love me anymore
I don't understand anymore and I can't think
Why can't I let you go?
Why can't I let you go?
Hate you I wanted to hate you

Jonny Pierce and Jacob Graham met at summer camp when they were children and have been best friends ever since. Soon after their initial meeting, they formed Goat Explosion and toured extensively in North America during their teenage years. Around 2003, Pierce and Adam Kessler formed Elkland. In the meantime, Graham formed a band called Horse Shoes (Shelflife Records). Pierce ultimately decided to take a few years off from writing music after becoming disillusioned with the music business and parted ways with Elkland in 2005.
The Drums were formed in late 2006. Relocating to New York, The Drums added former Elkland guitarist Adam Kessler on second guitar and NYC born drummer Connor Hanwick (formerly of lo-fi teen pop duo Cape of No Hope) to the line up and set up a month long residency at a small club on the lower east side of Manhattan. They released their debut single Let's Go Surfing on on 15 September 2009, which the Let's Go Surfing Songfacts reports was inspired by Barack Obama's victory in the 2008 presidential election.
As of September 2010, guitarist Adam Kessler has left the band.

You're perfect photographs on the wall
And if I know you you're ok
I don't wanna dance anymore
I don't wanna sing anymore
I don't wanna dance anymore we used to sing
I thought I'd be ok till I hit that floor
I thought I'd be fine till I needed more
I thought I'd be ok till I hit that floor
Oh, I need more I need more I need more
I thought my life would get easier
Instead its getting harder, instead it's getting harder
I thought my life would get easier,
Instead it's darker, instead it's getting colder...
Without you
My life's a book of short stories,
And we wrote a new one everyday
I don't understand anymore
You don't love me anymore
I don't understand anymore and I can't think
Why can't I let you go?
Why can't I let you go?
Hate you I wanted to hate you
Shi oasis
[Verse 1]
Your perfect photographs on the wall
And if I know you, you're okay
I don't wanna dance anymore
I don't wanna sing anymore
I don't wanna dance anymore
We used to sing
[Pre-Chorus]
I thought I'd be okay 'til I hit that floor
I thought I'd be fine 'til I needed more
I thought I'd be okay 'til I hit that floor
Oh, I need more, I need more, I need more, I need more
[Chorus]
I thought my life would get easier
Instead it's getting harder, instead it's getting harder
I thought my life would get easier
Instead it's darker, instead it's getting colder
Without you

My life's a book of short stories
And we wrote a new one everyday
I don't understand anymore
You don't love me anymore
I don't understand anymore and I can't think

I thought I'd be okay 'til I hit that floor
I thought I'd be fine 'til I needed more
I thought I'd be okay 'til I hit that floor
Oh, I need more, I need more, I need more, I need more

I thought my life would get easier
Instead it's getting harder, instead it's getting harder
I thought my life would get easier
Instead it's darker, instead it's getting colder

[Outro]
Why can't I let you go?
Why can't I let you go?
Hate you, I wanted to hate you, I wanted to hate you, I wanted to hate you
Hate you, I wanted to hate you, I wanted to hate you, I wanted to hate you
[Chorus]
I thought my life would get easier
Instead it's getting harder, instead it's getting harder
I thought my life would get easier
Instead it's darker, instead it's getting colder
Without you
Without you
Without you
Without you
Without you

I'm at the beach sitting in a balcony couch, in front of a beautiful sunset and listening to this song.

A mi me ponen triste •́ ‿ ,•̀

Es curioso, pues las letras suelen ser melancólicas/tristes, pero claro, la música se siente como se debe sentir; irónicamente a mí también me provoca bailar y ser feliz.
