Lungs é o mais recente álbum de Florence And The Machine e é actualmente o meu preferido. Esta é uma banda alternativa, um dos meus estilos musicais preferidos, e que comecei a descobrir à bem pouco tempo! O álbum vale muito, muito, muito a pena. E a vocalista, Florence, é daquelas que faz falta no mundo da música. Em comparação e a título de exemplo associo-a a nomes como a Alison, vocalista dos The Kills, à Meg White, que integra os The White Stripes, à Beth Ditto, vocalista dos The Gossip ou até à Laura-Mary Carter, a voz dos Blood Red Shoes, pela energia que transporta para a música.Florence And The Machine - Rabbit Heart (Raise It Up)
The looking glass so shiny and new
How quickly the glamor fades
I start spinning slipping out of time
Was that the wrong pill to take (Raise it up)
You made a deal and now it seems you have to offer up
But will it ever be enough (Raise it up, raise it up)
It's not enough (Raise it up, raise it up)
Here I am a rabbit hearted girl
Frozen in the headlights
It seems I´ve made the final sacrifice
We raise it up this offering
This is a gift it comes with a price
Who is the lamb and who is the knife
Midas is king and he holds me so tight
And turns me to gold in the sunlight
I look around but I can´t find you (raise it up)
If only I could see your face (raise it up)
Instead of rushing towards the skyline (raise it up)
I wish that I could just be brave
I must become a lion hearted girl
Ready for a fight
Before I make the final sacrifice
We raise it up this offering
This is a gift it comes with a price
Who is the lamb and who is the knife
Midas is king and he holds me so tight
And turns me to gold in the sunlight
Raise it up, raise it up
And in the spring I shed my skin
And it blows away with the changing wind
The waters turn from blue to red
As towards the sky I offer it
This is a gift it comes with a price
Who is the lamb and who is the knife
Midas is king and he holds me so tight
And turns me to gold in the sunlight
(repeat)
This is a gift
