Bombay Bicycle Club – Overdone Lyrics 11 years ago
actual lyrics:
Here comes the doubt to shut the sunlight out, I feel the brunt
And I keep the world away to be asleep
Throughout the day is all I want

I sit and pine for wasted time
My feet were strong, my head was numb
I feel it come, I'm overdone

And I keep the world away to be asleep
Throughout the day is all I need
Tell me
Was it enough when we were first in love to plant the seed
And just leave?

I sit and pine for wasted time
My feet were strong, my head was numb
I feel it, I'm overdone

Bombay Bicycle Club – Your Eyes Lyrics 11 years ago
This song is pretty self-explanatory I think. He is the weaker half in this relationship. “Nod my head so dumb with love, there's something else I'm dreaming of, shut my eyes pretend it's there, keep me here, unaware” He’s checked out of the relationship and is too preoccupied thinking of other things other than what she is talking about. He makes all these promises to her, but later thinks about what he has said and realizes he’s not so sure he really means them. He asks her to humor him by thinking about the things he cares about because she clearly is usually uninterested. “You come out and say the word, quick how all the tables turned” is her saying how she feels right away when she is upset, where as he usually bottles it up. So he is saying the mood changes when she is upset. “Hate that there's a space to fill, always have and always will” is him feeling a void in their relationship. They both try to find things to fight about “poke at any dirt we find, magnify for us to see, then dig them up desperately”. When he says “I’m there when your finger snaps, it’s not where we left it at, I can see the love we trapped, coming back” he is saying that right at the hint of making up, he is eager to do so. After they step away from the fight, they are reminded of their love for each other. Then the song ends with a repetition of “your eyes” which is him surrendering to her because he is influenced by her eyes.

Bombay Bicycle Club – Carry Me Lyrics 11 years ago
These are the actual lyrics but they won't let me change due to licensing reasons?

You try to keep the options near
I want you home, I want you here 
The last you saw across the track (I won’t change, you know that)
The rest are never coming back (I won’t change, you know that)

If anybody wants to know
Our love’s getting old
Light in the cracks in the road

You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me 
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me 
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me 
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me (I won’t change, you know that)
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me 
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me (I won’t change, you know that)
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me 

It’s time I let my mind disarm
I never meant to cause you harm
Just to try to keep the options near
I want you home, I want you here

You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me 
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me 
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me 
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me 
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me 
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me 
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me 
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me 

You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me (I won’t change, you know that)
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me 
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me (I won’t change, you know that)
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me 
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me (I won’t change, you know that)
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me (I won’t change, you know that)
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me (I won’t change, you know that)
You carry, you carry, you carry, you carry me 

If anybody wants to know
Our love's getting old
Light in the cracks in the road

You carry me!

Bombay Bicycle Club – Luna Lyrics 11 years ago
These are the actual lyrics, but they won't let me change them due to licensing reasons?

I will bathe myself
Then I'll wear you for the night
Colors fading, frayed at the sides

Changing in the light
Oh why is your face so pale and white?

There's a lot of words to come out
Just waiting for the perfect hideout
Down where the walls started shaking
I'm ready for you to find out
Ah-ooo-ooo
To find out
Ah-ooo-ooo

Now that the night has fled
Just like everything I said
When the moon was out instead

Now the sun glows soft and red
You burn through my mind, again and again and again
And again and again

There's a lot of words to come out
Just waiting for the perfect hideout
Down where the walls started shaking
I'm ready for you to find out
Ah-ooo-ooo
To find out
Ah-ooo-ooo

There's a lot of words to come out
Just waiting for the perfect hideout
Down where the walls started shaking
I'm ready for you to find out
Ah-ooo-ooo
To find out
Ah-ooo-ooo

Bombay Bicycle Club – Beg Lyrics 12 years ago
What I think are the actual lyrics:
Feeling heart beats, steal all other sound
When I thought my soul burnt out
Oh, I beg you come
I beg you come
I beg you come
Make it out of there and say you feel it now

Want you to feel it, breathe it, let it take you down
Take your time, don't throw it out
Oh, I beg you come
I beg you come
I beg you come
Just get out of there and say you need it now

Won't you come and pass the time?
Lay your hand upon the mold she left behind
Appease my mind
So it's just this once
It's all I ever want

I know I'm stealing love and draining out it's light
I'll find my own some time
I beg you come
I beg you come
I beg you come
Just get out of there and say you needed mine

Won't you come and pass the time?
Lay your hand upon the mold she left behind
Appease my mind
Let the heart decide
C'mon face this side
It’s always just this once
It's all I need
It's all I ever want

Bombay Bicycle Club – Curl Up Like a Dead Leaf and Go Where the Wind Blows Lyrics 12 years ago
To me the song is about this guy singing about a girl he is with that is overly dramatic and causes him a lot of distress. In the first verse they seem to be in a car ( "your head on the window"; "red container"), after leaving a place where they had a public fight.
They appear to still be mad at each other in the car because he mentions "It's all over your skin it sets it off" as in the tension causes them to start fighting again and he is so mad, he wishes she is wiped off the face of the planet, essentially ("pray that a black hole take her").
Once they get home, it's storming outside and he is sitting alone in some room and he is thinking about how he can't calmly say how he feels ("Something I can't just say softly") and how by not going to sleep, he is keeping her up.
In the next verse he repeats his sentiment of her disappearing from his life ("pray that the lightning take her").
I believe the chorus is him speaking metaphorically about "going away", where in reality they are just not speaking to each other and he feels as though he is "wasting away" when they are not on good terms.
