OF MONSTERS AND MEN
"Backyard"

[Verse 1: Nanna Bryndis Hilmarsdottir, Nanna & Ragnar Thorhallsson]
I live the life above
Hold me down, hold me down
I live a life of letting go
(Ooh)

Under a starlit night
I wrap myself in thin sheet of ice
Out there, the stars are crystallized

[Pre-Chorus: Nanna & Ragnar]
(Ooh, ooh-ooh) Find me in the backyard
(Ooh, ooh-ooh) Find me in the backyard in the dark
(Ooh, ooh-ooh) Find me in the backyard
(Ooh, ooh-ooh) Find me in the backyard

[Chorus: Nanna]
'Cause you colour me clear,
Now what are you, what are you waiting for?
Yeah, you colour me clear,
Now what are you waiting for?

[Verse 2: Nanna, Nanna & Ragnar]
See how my mountains turn
From blue to black, from white to gray
I'm a bird, and a broken one
(Ooh)

The drops illuminate
And evaporate into a neon lake
I'm a beast, and a vicious one

[Pre-Chorus: Nanna & Ragnar]
(Ooh, ooh-ooh) Find me in the backyard
(Ooh, ooh-ooh) Find me in the backyard in the dark
(Ooh, ooh-ooh) Find me in the backyard
(Ooh, ooh-ooh) Find me in the backyard

[Chorus: Nanna & Ragnar]
'Cause you colour me clear,
Now what are you, what are you waiting for?
Yeah, you colour me clear,
Now what are you waiting for?

[Chorus: Nanna & Ragnar]
'Cause you colour me clear,
Now what are you, what are you waiting for?
Yeah, you colour me clear,
Now what are you waiting for?
