Of Monsters And Men
Lyrics for Song: Lakehouse
Lyrics for Album: My Head Is An Animal [2011]
Oh, I miss the comfort of this house.
Where we are, where we are.
Where we are, where we are,
The floor under our feet whispers out,
"come on in, come on in, where it all begins".
The tallest man I've ever seen afloat.
On a boat, on a boat.
On a boat, on a boat.
He keeps his only son close by.
In a bag, in a bag.
In a bag on his back.
Can you chase this fire away,
We climbed up to the top in worn out shoes,
but she ran down, she ran down.
She ran down to the house.
A fox that gains our trust but then breaks it as he walks
away form us, away from us.
Can you chase this fire away,
In the fall we sleep all day.
Where we are.

Lakehouse
Lakehouse stands as a defining track on Of Monsters And Men's debut album, My Head Is An Animal. Released in 2011, the recording captures the Icelandic band's signature blend of indie folk and alternative rock, characterized by soaring harmonies and acoustic instrumentation. The song reflects the group's early exploration of intimate storytelling set against expansive musical landscapes. While often overshadowed by the massive success of Little Talks, Lakehouse remains a crucial element of their initial discography, showcasing the dynamic interplay between lead vocalist Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir and the rest of the ensemble. The track exemplifies the band's ability to craft emotionally resonant melodies that balance melancholic undertones with uplifting energy. As part of a celebrated era in modern indie music, the recording continues to resonate with listeners who appreciate the band's unique sonic identity and lyrical depth. |
