The Killers - My Own Soul's Warning

I tried going against my own soul's warning
But in the end, something just didn't feel right
Oh I tried diving even though the sky was storming
I just wanted to get back to where you are

[Verse 1]
If you can see through the banner of the sun
Into eternity's eyes like a vision reaching down to you
Would you turn away, what if it knew you got a name
What kind of words will cut through the clutter of the whirlwind of these days

[Pre-Chorus]
I tried going against my own soul's warning
But in the end, something just didn't feel right
Oh I tried diving even though the sky was storming
Thunder heads were forming

[Chorus]
And then I thought I could die
And when I hit the ground
It made a messed up sound and it kept rattling through my days
Cutting up my nights like a goddamn knife
And it got me thinking no matter how far
I just wanted to get back to where you are


[Pre-Chorus]
I tried going against my own soul's warning
But in the end, something just didn't feel right
Oh I tried running from the memory and the morning
But the penalty kept on pouring

[Chorus]
And now I think I know why
'Cause when I hit the ground
It made a messed up sound and it kept rattling through my days
Cutting up my nights like a goddamn knife
And it got me thinking no matter how far
I just wanted to get back to where you are
