These Days
dAVOS Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Days so cold put on your balaclavas
Call the police oh what a palava
I'll take the door love you take the safe
It's a perilous place but we dont care these days
Because stormy weather is bringing us together again
Just raise your eyes and see how much it's raining
And in all this rain
The room like lightning
With the blue lights flashing outside
Your face is oretty as astronomy
And if a bullet whistles
Like a poison kiss

Now she's knee deep in fifty pound noted
While a slow red river runs sleepily over
We could have walked in the park in a cold eclipse
Had a go at each other like a tramp eating up his chips
But instead i raise my eyes to see how much i love yu
And in all this rain
The room like magic
With the bluse lights flashing outside
Your face is pretty as astronomy
And the bullet whistles




Like a poisen kiss
But i dont care these days

Line by Line Meaning

Days so cold put on your balaclavas
It's so cold outside that we need protective masks to cover our faces


Call the police oh what a palava
If something goes wrong, we'll need to call the police and it'll be chaotic


I'll take the door love you take the safe
If we have to make a quick escape, I'll open the door and you grab the valuables


It's a perilous place but we dont care these days
Even though we're in a dangerous situation, we're not worried anymore


Because stormy weather is bringing us together again
The bad weather is making us spend time together inside


Just raise your eyes and see how much it's raining
Look outside and see how heavily it's raining


And in all this rain
Despite the pouring rain and dark atmosphere


The room like lightning
The room is lit up and electric with energy


With the blue lights flashing outside
Police or emergency vehicle lights are flashing outside


Your face is pretty as astronomy
Your beauty is as mesmerizing and vast as the night sky


And if a bullet whistles
If a bullet is fired and we hear it go by


Like a poison kiss
It's a dangerous and deadly situation, but we're still enjoying each other's company


Now she's knee deep in fifty pound noted
She's surrounded by and enjoying the money we just stole


While a slow red river runs sleepily over
The rainy weather has caused a red river to flow slowly outside


We could have walked in the park in a cold eclipse
We could have had a romantic walk in the park, even in the bad weather


Had a go at each other like a tramp eating up his chips
We could have fought like two homeless people over a bag of chips


But instead i raise my eyes to see how much i love yu
Instead, I choose to focus on my love for you and enjoy our time together


And in all this rain
Despite the pouring rain and dark atmosphere


The room like magic
The room appears enchanted and special


And the bullet whistles
Even though danger is present, I choose to ignore it and enjoy our relationship


Like a poisen kiss
The situation is dangerous, but our love and connection is still powerful and enjoyable


But i dont care these days
I'm not afraid anymore because our love brings me comfort and confidence
