Where The Wild Things Grow Lyrics
Dressed up to the nines
With nowhere to be now
I finally find who I wish to be now
The solace of sleep
Is coming on slow
Where the wild things grow
The branches they bend in twisted dimensions
And break out a beat to my apprehension
The solace of sleep is coming on slow
My silence creates a sweet afterglow
Where the wild things grow
A luminous drop to make this solution
So that your doubts have something to soothe them
The solace of sleep is coming on slow
Our silence creates a sweet afterglow
Where the wild things grow
The solace of sleep is coming on slow
Our silence creates a sweet afterglow
Where the wild things grow
Where the wild things grow
Where the wild things grow
Where the wild things grow
They'll grow where you are
They'll grow where you are
They'll grow where you are
They'll grow
They'll grow where you are
They'll grow where you are
They'll grow where you are
They'll grow
With nowhere to be now
I finally find who I wish to be now
The solace of sleep
Is coming on slow
Where the wild things grow
The branches they bend in twisted dimensions
The solace of sleep is coming on slow
My silence creates a sweet afterglow
Where the wild things grow
So that your doubts have something to soothe them
The solace of sleep is coming on slow
Our silence creates a sweet afterglow
Where the wild things grow
Our silence creates a sweet afterglow
Where the wild things grow
Where the wild things grow
Where the wild things grow
Where the wild things grow
They'll grow where you are
They'll grow where you are
They'll grow
They'll grow where you are
They'll grow where you are
They'll grow

“I wrote it in my old flat at night,” says (frontman/ guitarist) James Walsh of this track, which has that slightly uneasy, otherworldliness reminiscent of those early Bowie or Pink Floyd recordings. “I could hear the pipes creaking. I was thinking of Maurice Sendak and Stanley Donwood’s Radiohead art. There’s an early Ed Harcourt song called ‘Beneath The Heart Of Darkness’ that’s an influence too. The brooding otherworldly darkness.”
