Falling Asleep On a Stranger Lyrics
Well you know that I’m cold
Black on constellations gold
And you know that your soul’s black top under lacing won’t let it go
It was all for you, all for you and more
She won’t chase him anymore
To the end, never leave
Fall asleep on the first I face
And they say play the game
You and me found love
Lost under the shade
Well you know I’m a ghost
Pull the note out of my throat and leave me alone
But it’s all for you, all for you and more
He won’t take her anymore
To the end, never leave
Fall asleep on the first I face
And they say play the game
You and me found love lost under the shade
Come back to my heart tonight
I don’t care
Come back tonight
Black on constellations gold
And you know that your soul’s black top under lacing won’t let it go
It was all for you, all for you and more
She won’t chase him anymore
To the end, never leave
Fall asleep on the first I face
And they say play the game
You and me found love
Lost under the shade
Well you know I’m a ghost
Pull the note out of my throat and leave me alone
But it’s all for you, all for you and more
He won’t take her anymore
To the end, never leave
Fall asleep on the first I face
And they say play the game
You and me found love lost under the shade
Come back to my heart tonight
I don’t care
Come back tonight

"The song 'Falling Asleep On A Stranger' is about when two people love eachother just move way to fast and don't know about one an other; there like a stranger, so hence the song title"- Vic
i dont think she left him i think they both just kinda gave up. but maybe he she would have just talked about the things she was hiding it couldve worked.

I love his voice.... It's amazing
she left him and now to try and get over her he is just sleeping with pretty much anyone he meets, he knows he will get hurt if he goes back with her but he still wants her, but he is smart enough to just leave it be and not put himself through the hurt again, she is suffocating him with words that he wanted to hear before "pull the note out of my throat" but he doesn't want to hear it because he knows better than to be with her
this song is amazing :)
I agree(: <3
I agree(: <3
I see this song as being about people that used to be deeply in love broke up and to ease the pain go home with the first person they meet hence "fall asleep on the first I face". "Come back to my heart" would be referring to the guy wanting his girl back.
Vic said this song was about rushing a relationship too fast. And sleeping with the first pretty girl and rushing things too fast. Maybe he misses her idkk.
still listening to this in 2015. I think this song is about a couple moving too fast and falling in "love" the girl is trying to hide her pain with sex but obviously that isn't going to work. I love when he sings "you and me found love lost under the shade." it makes me think that both the boy and the girl were lost in the dark and found what they thought was love... but how can you find or see anything when you're in the dark? <33
This is one of my top 3 songs of theirs. In my interpretation I think it’s two people meeting during a rough patch of their lives and relying on each other, hence the lyrics “well, you know I’m cold” and “you know that your souls black top under-lacing won’t let it go”. Another good lyric to back that up for me is “You and me found love lost under the shade” pointing to that it’s hard to find someone you can trust and look to for support and they were able to find that safety in each other. Now toward the middle of the song to me it’s like they become to dependent on each other but one partner isn’t changing, and in the end the girl or “she” as in the lyrics “she wont chase him anymore” gives up. The ending lyrics such as “come back to my heart” is the “him” in this case calling her back to him for a second chance. Again this is just how I’ve interpreted it, there are so many other ways to put these lyrics, even if the band or musician tells you the story behind it there will always be different ways to see it because we all relate to it in different ways.
this is an amazing, amazing song.
"And you know that your souls black top under lacing wont let it go" i think this lines aboout how mucha girl has been hurt, and shes trying to forget about it and play it all off with sex, and she thinks that will ease all the pain shes been through, but he and her both know shes just trying to trick herself, and its not going to work.
"It was all for you, all for you and more" maybe he's talking about his love and his heart.? he couldve gaven her everything, they couldve been happy. but something was in the way.??
